Nowadays it's quite easy to change brokers, as long as the person is fluent in English there are so many options available. I've always thought that as long as the commission is less than 1% then I'm alright with it, but of course the less I pay the better. I'm currently with IB because just like daat99 I too got sick of the local brokers charging an arm and a leg for transactions... especially if I wanted to buy from North America.
My old broker had a minimum of 20 euros commission when buying from the USA...thus I never bought from there. Now I'm with IB and I think I paid $0.36 commission for my last trade.
