Edward Jones Investments is a financial services company that was founded by Edward D. Jones in 1922. The founder’s son, Edward D. “Ted” Jones created the individual branch network now spread throughout the U.S. and Canada.

The worst experience I’ve ever had in a business dealing was I hoped over when I closed my account with you. Having 4 different financial advisors (an oxymoron in the case of Edward Jones) being put in a Roth IRA when I was not eligible. If that’s not enough, the milleneal Ryan Guth who was the manager of the East Montgomery office here in Albuquerque decided to close the office the last day of the year! I probably made a bad decision because he was not available. I had to go through your legal department to get reimbursed for the Roth IRA penalty I incurred. NOW you send me a 2019 consolidated 1099 for interest dated Feb 6, 2020, which I just received today, Feb 14 20. I have always been told you are to receive them by Jan 31 of each year. I have a call into my accountant to see what’s involved. I’m sure there will be a charge for your negligence. SHAME ON YOU EDWARD JONES!! I see you don’t reply to any of these messages so why do you even put them on here. If you had any ethics you would offer to pay any charges your incompetence has cost.

To Bridget Wilson
I Got A Letter From You About My Sending Written Instructions In To My Local Office. I CANNOT TALK. I HAVE NO VOICE. HOW CAN YOU GIVE VERBEL INSTRUCTIONS TO YOUR FA IF YOU CANT TALK. I Like Michael A Lot. Hes A Good Man, But You Need To Change A Few Rules. Some People Have HANDICAPS. I HAVE A VOICE PROBLEM. CANT CALL ANYONE. My Niece Is Also On My Acct. She Should Be Able To Make The Changes I Want On My Behalf, Without All The Paperwork Signing. This Whole Thing Is STUPID IN My Opinion. Come April, If Changes Cant Be Made By Written Instructions, Or If My Niece Cant Call Them In Without Her Name On A Form, I May Be Closing My Acct. And Going Elsewhere. Your Firm Needs To Make Some Changes @ Cater More To The Disabled People. Thats All I Have To Say.

The account I have was transferred to me as a gift from my Mother. It began in your Waconia office with Ryan Pederson. Soon after the transfer I received information in the mail with my name and address and another customer’s personal information. That concerned me as I wondered how much of my personal information was sent to someone else also. When it was brought to their attention it was brushed off as “no one is perfect” and “things happen”. Not any apologies whatsoever. I then decided to go with an agent in Chanhassen where I reside. I saw Joan Andrew who was terrific but then retired. She recommended Marriane Laurent who has her office in Excelsior. At that time I was very busy with my elderly mother but she continued to call at least once a week to set up an appointment even after I advised I was unable to make one. She became bothersome so by the time I did have time I was so annoyed by her constant calling I decided I would just stay in Chanhassen and see someone locally. I then advised her of that. Obviously she wasn’t going to accept that as she actually showed up at my home. Yes, at my door. If that isn’t harassment I’m not sure what is. I have never in my lifetime heard of an agent being so desperate they have to actually invade your home and privacy for your business. This is the way to lose business not help a client. Please advise your agent this is not a way to conduct business and to absolutely never under any circumstances contact me again. The outcome of this message will determine whether my funds stay with you or need to be moved.
