“Merrill lying about service outage yesterday”
What Actually Happened
https://www.thinkadvisor.com/2026/04/29/merrill-clients-report-website-app-problems/
Couldn’t trade for hours yesterday. Customer service admitted that they couldn’t access systems internally either. But…
“The company attributed the interruption to planned platform enhancements and noted the issue has been resolved.”
Because of course you’d plan disruptive platform enhancements to happen during trading hours. What a crock.
