Morgan Stanley are a company that you should only place your money with if you want to lose it. This is an incredibly dishonest financial firm. I placed huge sums of money with them for many years. My financial advisor was effectively stealing money from the account without my knowledge. I know this now because the funds were not growing at all. I moved the funds to Fidelity and the funds began to immediately grow by very large amounts. I am now managing my funds myself. I am not an expert in finances, but when I was under the care of a financial expert, my accounts were not growing. The other thing that happened is that when I finally came to my senses and moved the funds to Fidelity, Morgan Stanley even stole 500 USD as the funds were leaving my account. We have never been able to find out where the 500 USD went in the transfer. All I know is that the 500 USD did not end up in the accounts the money was transferred to. I receive at least one call each year from someone trying to get me to place my funds with Morgan Stanley. I am sure they trawl through all sorts of resources to find high net worth individuals to induce them to invest with Morgan Stanley. I wish I could give no stars, because they deserve none. Again, only place your money with these thieves if you can afford to lose it.

Don't really care about their customers. Their system is old fashion and buggy. Very complex and they only offer support over phone. You can't transfer shares from their platform. I have tried this for 6 month now.

Hi Duncan,I guess you and Marilyn didn't do the right thing and just moved her out. I'm a professional and unfortunately, you are not. When people move in, they are supposed to give notice if moving regardless if a contract signed or not. You and Marilyn, had an out and took it, but not even giving a written notice is not right. Not that it mattered to you, but I had to pay a full months referral fee for the placement and now it's gone. I only made money on 2 weeks of housing and lost one months rent to an agency behind you guys. Please send me your boss name and number so I can file a complaint against you. You could have asked Marilyn to pay the full month's rent and paid for the death of my dog to make the situation reasonable but you both choose not to. Very cold people. You also failed to help in the reimbursement of my dog that Marilyn left outside to be killed by a coyote and then to be told by you, "that was not her responsibility " was very hurtful as well. Marilyn let out her dog and my dog followed. Because she didn't care for my dog, she had no conscious to bring my dog back in. She intentionally closed the door on him and left him outside to be killed by a coyote. I believe her action was very careless and and heartless on both your part. My dog is dead and you moved her like it was nothing. That's the part the hurts me. My dog is dead with no remorse and accountability from you or Marilyn. After all is said and done just so you can keep managing her money, have become an enabler to Marilyn and that's not good. I know the facility very well where Marilyn went to and if she's doing the same negative actions she did at our place, she's not going to last there either. I advised them to get her contract signed so if she's ready to jump and leave, she'll owe (3 )months full months of rent. No one does such unprofessional things like this. No one seemed as uncaring as you and Marilyn regarding this matter and that's unfortunate. I'll await yo

They are sloppy. I've tried three transfers (shares in, cash out by ACH, cash out by wire) and they screwed up all three of them. Once they screw up, you have to call (during east coast bankers hours) and talk to at least three people in order to resolve their mistake. If you want to confidently access your own money, use another bank.

If you are looking for a broker, I would advise looking elsewhere. My father had an account with Morgan Stanley since the 1970s. When he passed away in 1994, my mother inherited the account. She passed away this year and there really wasn't much left as she had withdrawn most of it over the past 27 years. However, getting anyone to CLOSE the account was like pulling teeth. Email after email went unanswered even after I had sent in the requested documents. Week after week passed. Then I found out that the person in charge of my mother’s account in the estate section had left the company and that we had fallen through the cracks, as they put it. Okay, so I get a new guy who is helpful enough to fill out the papers in advance and mail them to me. Wow, what a positive impression he made UNTIL I sent in the papers and even he went silent. Calls, emails, calls, emails. No answer from him. Finally, on one call he doesn't pick up so I am transferred to the first available representative. Lo and behold! It's the guy I have been trying to reach for weeks. FINALLY FINALLY He connects me to someone who liquidates the account, for a fee, of course. Yes, I got the check. By their standards it is small potatoes but, as executrix, I still have to collect it.One thing that still irks me, though, is that, many years ago, Morgan Stanley cost my mother a huge loss because of bad advice from a broker. My brother had asked about a particular utility stock and the broker assured my mother and brother that utilities were solid. Within a year the company had gone bankrupt. When my brother called him out in it, he laughed! Incredible! Well, it wasn't money out of his pocket, right? Never again will we use Morgan Stanley. No loss? Well, dear Morgan Stanley, my parents also invested in real estate so I am going to have a chunk of cash to invest. Just not with YOU.

The stockplanconnect website update that was recently released is one of the worst websites I have ever seen. It has gone from a few seconds and a couple of clicks to submit a transaction, to now taking several minutes and 5-6 screens. The performance is terrible, with screen refresh times 30-60 seconds - ridiculous! I hope they didn't pay whoever did the UX design :(

Trying to get my funds into my bank accounts has been 3 months (and still going) of me constantly calling and emailing and calling and emailing and tearing my hair out. It is getting to the point it feels illegal how hard it is for me to just transfer my funds. To say I have been on the verge of tears from sheer frustration is an understatment. Will be seeking legal advice by end of this week due to the lack of progress and ability to actually have decent, consistent customer service contact

Graystone Consulting is a member of Morgan Stanley office.Worked with David aka "Dave" (Account Manager) from Cincinnati Ohio branch in Montgomery and would say this is complacency at it's finest. Their service and "management" style of brokerage accountants. When they act like they are doing you a favor to have an account with them, be careful with this kind of elitist entitlement. If netting bank-level interest gains and outright apathy matters to you, by all means, go with David/Dave of Graystone Consulting, a Morgan Stanley office. They will tell you one thing and do another. UNLESS, your accounts are over 250K or more, they stick you in low performing accounts with a "hands-off" anti-management strategy. - Was referred to them by a family member. - Put in over 50K with their flag flop UMA account- Was not a great experience "managed" account was too hands-off, as in they don't care.- After a meeting with David/Dave (now I know this is a canned response), he said he'd re-look at my portfolio (because of some overlaps in investments) for rebalancing and never did. Took over two weeks, then during recent correction period in January, lost 6K+. Maybe if they cared it would have minimized risk, but we would never know how the account would have done...- Would not trust them to handle your money, they want big accounts where they can do losses and gains on auto-pilot and your happy with trivial gains. In my case the gains never happened. Tip: Learn to self-manage your own money at least you're not paying someone else to lose it for you... - Don't let them put your portfolio under 100K in a UMA account, with flat or consistent losses - When tried to complain on their lack of responsiveness on handling my account they were pretty nonchalant, like losing your money is their way of life. Work with a firm to work for you not against you... - Next morning after again asking David/Dave to do as he promised, was contacted by a Senior member (Kate) of their firm and was told
