TDAmeritrade advertises "now commission-free", but wants a "fee" instead :-)

TDAmeritrade ad says for options "now commission-free", but wants instead a "fee" of $0.65 per contract :)
So, effectively nothing has changed at all, isn't it? Isn't such an ad misleading?
I wonder how much they charged prior this. Anybody know?

Sounds like an accurate ad;
but i have not had time to read all the fine print. I like SCHW;
but if ever one has to trade over the phone free comiss turns into huge fee...........................................................................................
 
It's true for everything except options, how is that misleading?

Doesn't look like that ad is misleading;
+ its even listed in volume order\ options trades* are last on the list. The Kraft Maxwell House Coffee ad\portion size label, does look misleading+ the judge said the $16 million settlement = ''good to the last drop'' LOL:D:DGood coffee+ bad ad.
