getting back to you
the fees are 12.99 (if you margin) or $9.99 if you dont. After 30 trades it also goes from 12.99 to 9.99. Option trading is an additional $1 per contract and after 30 trades it goes to .75 per contract. Becasue I made 30 trades in a quarter I get the level II quotes which is cool.
The linking bank accounts is good because once you get going you can transfer money easy between your etrade account and your regular bank account. I have a citibank account, after going through the process of linking and verifying my citibank account # shows up on my etrade account. So the process of transfering money between etrade and citibank is just about the same as transfering money from my citibank checking to savings account. I just go to the transfer section and transfer from: Etrade To: Citibank and I am done.
I do not know about the other services but Etrade also gives me a check book and an atm card to get money out of my account.
