Here is an excerpt from an email I received from Vanguard. Looks like they have not given up on converting everyone over to their brokerage services ( I did not convert my account over).
From the email:
Be on the lookout for a request from Vanguard
Over the past few years, we've made some technology enhancements. As a result of these improvements, we'll be asking all of our clients to complete a quick, 3-step process to transition from our old investment platform to our new investment platform.
You don't need to take any action today—we simply want to let you know about the transition. You'll receive another email shortly that provides more detail.
A little more background
Having all our clients transition will help simplify things—for you and for us. It will enable us to lower our operating expenses and give us more money to invest in the new platform. And that translates to an even better investment experience for you.
Thanks for helping us move into the future of investing.
