      I have been paying for a managed *** with Fidelity. On multiple occasions after planned meetings with financial advisors have been made and on multiple occasions no-one has bothered to show up on planned arranged meetings. I would like Fidelity to refund the managed *** fee in full. The second meeting was arranged at 2/24/25 at 2.30pm CST after re-scheduling weeks ago and also 2/14/25 at 2.30pm CST no-one bothered to show up for the meeting. It's unacceptable on a managed *** with planned meetings for people not to bother to show up which makes we suspect my *** has not been managed at all. I also want to see evidence that my *** has been managed over the last year and the managed fee refunded in full

      2/5/2025-2/14/2025 I am rolling over my fidelity 401k to another company. I had an irs lien on the account and it was confirmed that fidelity recieved the lien release on 2/2/2025. on 2/13 i was told by ****** ****** with fidelity that no one has done anything with the account. ****** told me he will be on this and it will be resolved on 2/13. On 2/14 ****** stopped returning my calls and i'm being told it will take 7-10 more days to release my funds for a rollover. My irs agent has spoken with the person who handles the account now and has twice sent him the lien release, again, on 2/14. ***** ***** is now the person of contact, ****** ****** mysteriously isn't. ***** is now telling me maybe next week.They are holding my funds in bad faith.

      On 12/20, I made a 60 day withdrawal from my **** ***, with the intention of redepositing the funds within the 60 day period to avoid penalty. On 2/5, I electronically sent $88,000 to my regular Fidelity brokerage account and wanted to transfer the funds to the **** to complete the 60 day return in time. I spoke to a representative, and he told me an up to 2 week hold had been placed on the funds, but to call closer to the deadline and Fidelity would help me make by making an exception to get the funds into the ****. I called on 2/13 to request this exception, and was informed my funds would be held for the full 2 week period. I spoke to a manager, and they would not help me out. I've been with Fidelity for maybe 25 years or more. I have multiple accounts, and each of my 4 other family members each have at least 2 accounts. We've never caused any problems for Fidelity. Fidelity's website made no mention of the hold of my electronically transferred funds until after I made the transfer. I am counting on this transfer to avoid serious issues with my **** *** and I have taken every step I could foresee to properly plan, but Fidelity has chosen to think of me as their enemy and hold my money improperly for 2 weeks, and allow me to be hurt financially when the funds will at all times be with Fidelity. I am sad that Fidelity is not the financial ally I have thought they were for over 25 years.

      I processed a partial payout/partial rollover on 2/4/2025. The transaction was cancelled due to my termination date being incorrect under ******* plan. I contacted my old employer and the termination date was corrected overnight so on 2/5 I called again and re-processed the transaction. Confirmation number W785062-05FEB25 - Adrie assisted with this termination request. I was advised direct deposit was not an option and that checks needed to be cut manually due to the internal money movement from Infosys 401k to *****************. Rollover was completed with no issues. Money moved and posted on 2/6/25. For some reason checks were not cut until 2/7 even though TD received was 2.5.2025. Adrie confirmed I would receive the check at Fidelity's expense via Express mail through *** and I should get them on Friday 2/7 due to T+3. I called multiple times from 2/7 through 2/11 and kept getting misinformation. No one could tell me the tracking number for the checks and the checks were not even viewable under payment history until yesterday, 2/12. I am still waiting on these checks. I planned on using the money towards paying off a credit card as well as other things and I am going to be charged interest due to your mistake. I am beyond frustrated with this entire experience and am looking to be compensated for the incorrect processing of my initial request as well as the continued delay for receiving my funds which total close to $15k. I am not sure of the interest I will be charged and once confirmed I will be able to provide documentation for the amount I am looking for Fidelity to cover. I also want someone to verify I did in fact receive 2/5 TD for the manual checks that were cut as I am not sure why they were not processed until 2/7. I expect to hear from someone. Please make sure to pull the calls from 2/5 to confirm ***** offered to pay for the express mail.

      I have attached my chat and **** Certified Mail correspondence details to this complaint. I have had a Fidelity Brokerage account for over 10 years. In the beginning, I found it odd that the statements do not provide lot level or expense ration detail. Initially, I had to make two separate requests to see the lot details and another field that I forget in order to track my investments which I found odd, You cannot reconcile a brokerage account without these details, so I do not understand why all the necessary data is not provided by default.After the market correction in or around March 2020, there was a subsequent rebound beyond the original ********* indexes. All of my mutual fund investments were in common stocks traded in the ********* 500. My account value was drastically lower after the rebound. Over the last few years, I had to sell of my investments for financial reasons, Upon further analysis, I realized that I did not have adequate information to fully reconcile my losses. Approximately two weeks ago, i contacted Fidelity through a chat session, requesting a reconciling statement that would show me my losses with the lot level detail and expense ration. The *** could not help (which is strange), and he advised my to send a letter to the executive offices in **********, **. On the same day, I sent a certified letter to OH, as requested, for the statement. I have yet to hear from them on this issue. I need to understand the activity on my account. I don't think the gains reflected on my account are consistent with market trends, and i heard that Fidelity had issues in the past with fraudulent handling of their healthcare funds. I just need them to send me a statement, that I can reconcile to my losses to make sure there was no fraudulent activity. Can you assist? This should be something easy for them to provide. Without it, no one really know if their gains, losses, dividends or any other financial impact on their account is valid.

      Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process. 

      Hi,

      I read the latest response from Fidelity which states, "We regret Mr. ***** is unhappy..." and "We consider the matter fully reviewed and resolved."  They continue to reference the online statements which are inadequate for reconciling mutual funds at the lot level with backup calculations for the expense ratio.  This means that no American customer knows if ********************** is skimming or redistributing mutual fund losses, gains, dividends and distributions.  Therefore, they have autocratic authority over every Americans life savings at a time in history when citizens are told that the stock market (NYSE) is the path to retirement and corporations dismantled pension plans.  This has to be against *** regulations.  If not, then there is a bigger problem that would require the government. 

      I do not think that we will make any progress with Fidelity, so I not want to waste any more of your time unless you have other ideas on getting them to respond in a way other than, "check the online statement".  Unfortunately, I am not wealthy enough to sue which I think is their exact plan and modus operandi.  It's definitely consumer fraud and likely unconstitutional.  The sad part is that if this was taken up as a class action law suit, the law firms would get all reward and the consumers would have spent their whole working for less than they deserve.

      If you have any influence or advice for getting an actual response rather than a diversion tactic from Fidelity, I would appreciate it.  I understand that BBB is limited in their ability to resolve this problem.  I appreciate your time, and I hope have a good week.

      Thanks,

      *****

      I received a call from Fidelity on Friday 2/14 at 12:04 PM. The lady spoke to me in a rapid pace and forceful with intimidating tone which made me feel pressure and anxious. I believe she intended to prevent me from interjecting or even speak. All what she said is they did the correct action and basically there is nothing that I can do. I am asking to have any further communication to be done via email so I can accurately respond with what I want to say and avoid misunderstanding.

      My complaint against Fidelity because their action against me as they made unauthorized withdrawal to my 401K amount ($2838.61) on 11/11/2024, which caused me to lose my chances to transfer my account to *** and or any other retirement saving plan or any other investment and caused me to pay more federal taxes. I did not receive any notification prior or after their action, they just send me the check. This decision was made without my knowledge or my authorization. When I called Fidelity customer ******************** when I received the check; they told me sorry you did not receive a notification letter, and nothing can be done at this point. Then I called Fidelity legal department ***************) on Wednesday 2/12/2025 at 9:15 AM. I explained to them again,and they told me that their action is correct, and nothing can be done at this point. Their action caused me financial stress and a big loss, and they have not done anything to correct it.

      They pretty much admitted that there system was at fault and still proceeded to say there stance wont change and wont help me, I lost close to 35000$ in profit cause of these guys. Their agent said not to touch the money to rebuy shares so I didnt and that messed the whole thing up for me. What  a terrible Company. Do not use this.

      I opened a Fidelity Investments account Jan. 20, Jan 21 of 2025. I have transferred $75,000 from my bank to Fidelity and invested $25,000 of that. Jan. 30 2025 I log into my account to find out its blocked with a message that says I need to call **************. Call the phone# the robot tells me my account is closed with no possible re-opening. When I spoke to call center I was told the people in the "back end" is who I would need to speak with (they are on on East coast time only, I live in WA state.) I was told this because apparently there is a note on the account that states they can't/won't tell me anything. When I call again and get ahold of someone in the "back end" I am told absolutely nothing other than I need to either Mail or Fax my entire Identity to this company. (Which I am really uncomfortable with, not faxing that much personal info and certainly not mailing that kind of information with no confirmation it is received anywhere) . After this conversation I called again got the same thing but was told I would receive an outreach call by 2/8/25 it is now 2/10/25 with no response. I understand they can close an account for any reason they deem fit. But to hold money that is not theirs after closing an account seems shady (I could be wrong but I'm confident they collect interest off the money during this holding period). I am brand new to investing. The day I opened account was my 1st try at investing. To have account closed like that with no warning and no information about what to do is extremely frustrating. I can't believe this is legal to hold money like that. I just want my uninvested money back and the investments I did make rolled into a new brokerage account. Thank you for taking the time to read this.TLDR; Created new Investment Account Transferred money to it The company closed account and has yet to return money or help with transfer into different account or explain anything as to why it happened

      On Nov 12th 2024 I contacted Fidelity due to a fraudulent withdrawal of money from my ***. I contacted them the same day it happened. The money was wired to a person that had a account at ***************. I did not authorize this withdrawal.They were pretty helpful at first. They changed all my account numbers and had me put some further security measures on my account.They told me that they have protection against fraud and I was not to worry. They said it could take up to 30 days to investigate. I have made weekly calls since then but when I call they say it's under review. Never get to talk to a fraud person. Last week I asked to speak to a supervisor. Was told the same thing! It has now been 3 months. I need to file taxes but without this being resolved it's going to put me in a financial bind because I may have to pay taxes on money I never received! It was a substantial amount. I am at a loss, having many sleepless nights. This is not what a expected from them based on the information I received when it first happened.
