Fidelity.com Online Account Access Set Up Instructions

Online access to your accounts with Smith Anglin Financial is set up through www.fidelity.com. Even though our firm is the advisor and administrator of your account we are unable to set up your online access for you due to privacy regulations enforced by the SEC and the US Patriot Act. However, it is relatively simple to set up, please follow the directions below. Please call us first if you have any questions or problems as we may be able to help you. If it is after hours or we are unable to help you may call Fidelity directly at 1-800-544-6666.

Note: If you already have a login for fidelity.com through other sources such as a Fidelity 401(k), Profit Sharing Plan, or Pension plan, our accounts should show up in your list of accounts automatically once they have been opened. You will need to continue using the same fidelity.com login you already have and do not need to set up another one.
