Good broker, bad research

by dhfan2 , Aug 06 '02
Pros: Good customer service, even on busy days
Cons: Analyst research is biased and fundamental data out of date.
Customer service is excellent for a discount broker: I've never had trouble getting through to a rep, even during market meltdowns.

HarrisDirect's research is from CSFB, which has proven to be extremely biased and overly bullish. They...

DLJ or CSFB, They are no Better

by mnymaker , Aug 04 '01
Pros: Pretty fast executions
Cons: price is still high, their browser sucks, research limits me to first 150
DLJ errr CSFBDirect is a giant broker but they don't seem to be working hard to stay on the cutting edge of online technology. The browser that they let you download from their site is not as good as simply using the login in through the internet with...

Full-time Investor

by m_g_o_d , Jun 23 '01
Pros: fast execution's, ????????
Cons: COSTLY!, bad customer service, slow response time
If you enjoy trading Nasdaq, NYSE, and other high priced stock's, this site might come in handy. If you're a penny junkie you could easily find yourself dishing out a chunk of money for commission rate's. Other companies will do the same for less. I...

Good brokerage for the average investor

by swangner , Jan 23 '01
Pros: Great research, same commission no matter if you place the trade online, phone, etc.
Cons: Trades more expensive than with other online brokers
I was first attracted to DLJDirect because they were part of DLJ, one of the bigger traditional brokers. I figured that since they weren't a start-up, being part of a big traditional broker would let them avoid most of the problems the new guys have....

Idiots, need not apply!

by Thump93yj , Jan 09 '01
Pros: no minimum balance
Cons: Horrible Customer Service, misleading/innacurate help screens
Well... at least that's how they make you feel at DLJ Direct. Had I sent them six figures, I might be singing a different tune. However, I am simply a young investor trying to learn the ways of Wall Street and investing in the future.

DLJ service questionable at best!

by carlrj , Dec 28 '00
Pros: none
Cons: indication of possible securities and/or tax fraud
On February 13, 1998, I placed a "sell order" with a local brokerage (M&I Brokerage Services, Inc.) Their clearing broker and maintainer of their brokerage account records was Pershing, a division of DLJ. DLJ was the buyer of the 1078...

DLJ - Good Execution No Customer Service!

by Passport40 , Dec 16 '00
Pros: Good execution response time, fair research support
Cons: Poor handling of cash and checks. No customer service
I was with DLJ Direct for four years and did extensive trading. Trade executions were handled well and quickly, even on busy days on the market. I have no complaints in that area although there are lower cost providers available.

However, I...

Why???

by TKcars , Dec 13 '00
Pros: not very many
Cons: price, research
While I sit here, writing this review, I wonder why I ever decided to invest with DLJDirect. They provide no thrills service for $20 a trade. What a rip-off! Well, there is one feature that this online investment service can brag about; there is no...

Excellent Service

by Datsmar , Nov 24 '00
Pros: Excellent service and monthly statements
Cons: none
I have been with DLJ Direct for almost 10 years. I am retired and find using their brokerage service is easy and fast, whether you buy or sell. Above all the cost per trade is very reasonable. I used a full service brokerage for years and would have to...

DLJ for the young investor!

by drewsun , Oct 10 '00
Pros: Cheap trades, No minimum start-up balance
Cons: $20 is a little steep if you trade daily
My fiance and I were starting to invest, but wanted a way of investing "a little" and not "a lot" of our limited funds. After shopping around we found DLJ Direct. What we got for our search was a competitive broker that aggressively...
