most brokerages will exercise the other leg for you immediately and be around to respond if this happens to you. robinhood does none of that. there’s no customer service for DAYS.

If it’s exercised early then you won’t know until the next day. There will always be some discrepancy. It’s up to you to understand what trade you made and how your positions will exit.

That being said, yes customer support could help him understand what’s happening.
