- Someone on the net the other day suggested that Dean Witter had
- a low fee schedule for single share purchases that would be good
- for initial investments for a DRIP. (I don't have the posti
- handy, but thanks to the originator.)
-
- I walked over to their office and told the receptionist that
- I would like some information on setting up an account and
- would like a fee schedule. She told me that they don't have
- anything written up and that fees varied depending on what
- you bought. I said "yes, that's why I'd like a fee schedule".
- "Well, we don't have one." was her response.
-
- I find this all hard to believe. Was this receptionist
- just totally incompetent, or was she correct and Dean Witter
- is just anti-customer?
-
- thanks,
- Ken
