The Service is only available to US phone numbers.

2. Consent to Receive Automated Texts

By texting to 253781 and/or providing your mobile number and clicking the “I agree” button on our mobile registration website, you consent to receive automated mobile text (e.g., SMS and/or MMS or successor protocols or technologies) messages/alerts that may be sent using automated technology, including through an automatic telephone dialing system or autodialer, regarding offers and promotions for products or services associated with or offered by the Company, including any agents, vendors, affiliates, or other third parties, even if your mobile number is registered on any state or federal “Do Not Call” list. In this regard, you will receive SMS and/or MMS (or successor protocols or technologies) text messages or alerts with promotional content, including coupons, advertisements, events, polls, giveaways, downloads and information alerts from us or third parties. You also consent to receive informational and/or administrative messages or alerts from the Company that may be sent using automated technology, including through an automatic telephone dialing system or autodialer, regarding your account(s), trades, any transaction, and/or your relationship with us. You understand that you do not have to sign up for this Service in order to make any purchases or transactions with us, and your consent to receive automated texts or alerts is not a condition of any purchase of any goods or services from, or any transaction with, the Company. Your participation in the Service is completely voluntary. You also permit the Company to use location information (e.g., GPS) from your mobile device to send you text messages or alerts based on or tailored to your location.

3. Eligibility and Use Requirements

By subscribing to the Service, you confirm that you are over the age of 18 and the age of majority in your state of residence. You confirm and verify that you are the current subscriber and/or customary user of the mobile number registered and authorized to incur any message or data charges that may be charged by your carrier, and that the mobile number you provide when subscribing to the Service is true and accurate. You are strictly prohibited from registering a mobile number that is not your own. If we discover that any information provided in connection with your subscription is false or inaccurate, we may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time.

4. How to Cancel Your Subscription (Opt-Out Instructions)

You may revoke consent to receive E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley Text Alerts and cancel your subscription to the Service at any time by texting STOP to any text message you receive or texting STOP to 253781. We may use different long or short codes for different messaging purposes, so texting STOP to one short code will not effectuate a stop request for all short codes to which you are subscribed. If you would like to stop messages from multiple short codes, text STOP to each short code to which you would like to unsubscribe. You consent to receive an additional text message thereafter confirming your opt-out request. Please allow up to thirty (30) days to process your opt-out request. It is your sole obligation to notify the Company that you do not want to receive mobile text messages or alerts. You waive any rights to bring claims for unauthorized or undesired text messages by failing to opt-out immediately or by failing to follow these opt-out instructions. Canceling your account or otherwise terminating your relationship with the Company will not automatically cancel your subscription to the Service or revoke your consent to receive text messages or alerts from the Company without following the opt-out instructions above. You cannot opt-out of the Service via email, telephone call, regular mail, or any other method.

5. HELP

You may text HELP to 253781 to receive assistance. Doing so shall not cancel your subscription to the Service or revoke your consent to receive messages/alerts.
