Quote from traderlong:
Doesn't change the fact that fraud was committed. Why do you think that person bears the title "financial advisor"?
Quote from DHOHHI:
So sometime in 2007 you made your request. And you wait 1+ years to make it an issue. Why didn't you speak to the FA's manager? Better yet, why didn't you close out your account and move your money elsewhere? You have no recourse.
Quote from danoXP:
Check here to see if your specific broker has any violations. You can find your broker background check here:
http://www.finra.org/Investors/ToolsCalculators/BrokerCheck/index.htm
... make sure you go through the entire PDF file. If your broker has violations, you may have a stronger case.
Might want to try management at AIG and seek a new broker and a settlement. If that doesn't work, you can file a complaint with FINRA.
After resolution, i would then switch to Vanguard - they are a non-profit investor owned operation. They can transfer your assets from AIG for you. And provide full service.
my 2 cents.
