Fidelity Investments www.fidelity.com Review Summary
Making self- directed online investment trades can save a bunch of cash and one company that specializes in internet brokerage is Fidelity Investments, one of the best known names in online finance. According to reviewers, Fidelity Investments offers an excellent web site and accounts are easy to setup and manage. Administrative fees are low also, and many investors have their 401k plans with Fidelity Investments. Customer service is generally considered very good, although there are sometimes problems getting through to a live representative. Most reviewers feel Fidelity Investments is “The Best For the Best”, but another says to “Avoid Them”, making Fidelity Investments a slightly above average Online Brokerage Company.

I'm rich! I'm rich!
Oh dear. I'm not at all rich. But we did sell our overpriced home in California last year, and we wondered what to do with the tidy profit. Before we got carried away, we had to figure out logistics: i.e., where to stash the dough.

401K plans are a popular means to save money for retirement and online access to a retirement plan makes investment management easier than ever before.

One of popular 401k mutual fund company is also quickly becoming a popular online brokerage service. The place I am talking about is Fidelity Investments, an investment company and online brokerage service.

We have been with E-Trade, Charles Schwab, Muriel Sebert (sp) and all have taken us for a ride with fees for nothing. We trade outselves, we have money market accounts which should be paying moe than any bank can.

I recently had an issue with them. Not a biggie dollar wise. Less than $200. I could find no one at Fidelity who could resolve the situation. Even the local branch manager said she could not find anyone.
I placed calls, sent faxes, sent emails to the executive office (normally companies have staff members who quickly respond to issues raised at the executive level) and no response - zero, nada, not even a call.

I love Fidelity because you can consolidate all your retirement accounts together. It's easy and intuitive how to use the website. There is online customer support via instant messaging so you don't have to sit on a phone waiting to talk to somebody.
The research tools are great when trying to find stats on a mutual fund or stock. The site also has a feature called Full View. This allows you to register all sorts of accounts (other brokerage accounts, bank accounts, credit card companies, frequent flier / hotel accounts, email, etc.) so all account balances can be centralized.
