Beginning a few months ago, when I click on an email link and I am taken to the article, the portfolio showing in the left-hand column is not mine.

How would you rate the customer service you received?

This is horrendous customer service.  Having to communicate back and forth in an open forum.  I wish someone would directly communicate with me and look into this issue.  There is almost no point in using Seeking Alpha anymore.  I can't see any of stocks I want to follow.

You probably clicked on an email forwarded to you by someone else which auto logged you in to his account.  Just log out.

I have the same problem. I'm taken to the home page instead of the article.

Are you clicking on the phone or website ?  from what email client ?

Nope, clicking on an email sent directly to me (not forwarded), on a computer, using Yahoo.  If it helps any, the portfolio is my brother's.  It's like there was an automatic assignment by last name and somehow I was assigned to his portfolio.

Same with me. Email notification sent directly from SA to me. The portfolio is mine. Weird thing is it only started happening a few weeks ago, then seemed to stop, but started again yesterday.

Sorry I think I misunderstood umkk48's issue. In my case the "Read more" link in the email takes me to my SA homepage instead of the article. Different issue.
