-
alOttaBrakes (@alottabrakes) reported@IBKR Yeah the suggestion is when you have basic functions like remembering when the user adjusted something or clicked on something you fix it regardless of how they notify you about it instead of directing me to some form to file in proper channel. You are aware of the issue, fix it.

Kunnu Haha (@j4bert0) reported@Jeppez420 @IBKR I am not so sure you even get choose where you open the account. eu / finnish customer (corporate or not) is direct to Ireland. In that case, you need professional status, which shouldn’t be a problem for you, to trade US listed ETFs.

-
TraderSlim (@JamesRLeone2) reported@RobinhoodApp @robinhood Might be the worst platform to trade. -2% on an order and -6% on inaccurate information. Unreal. Off to learn @ibkr which I hear is a bit of a learning curve but a professional platform
-
phah (@000phah) reported@zerohashx @avax @IBKR 1. Where can I find instructions on how to deposit to IBKR via Zerohash? 2. How can I reach your support? My profile has been under review for ages.
-
F4VS | Retail Trader's Repository (@NF4VS) reported@StockJockAT @IBKR Yea I heard that too, I don't think it's as bad as people say. I think overall platform and fills are okay. I will say, they got some of the best customer service that I have seen from a broker. They dont fck around.
-
Garrett Smith (@gsmiznith) reported@ALBACapMgmt @IBKR The IBKR app has what is called a memory visibility bug. I base this on their Java example code for their API and my experience with Java. I have had fills go missing regularly from their desktop app.
-
ARX Savonum (@ARXSavonum) reported@Jeppez420 @IBKR While ETFs may be limited under IBKR Ireland (I'm a customer and not a professionally listed trader) and they're not available for me, you can get a lot of the same names through futures which I've done in some cases. Futures give usually better margin as well.
-
Fundamental Bull (@BullFundamental) reported@Jeppez420 @IBKR I think account size can help. However if your registration address is in Finland many ETF in us are not available because KID is not on Finnish
-

-
Josip Volarević 🐣 (@josipvolarevic) reported@ozgsol @solana @IBKR > To deposit YOUR money into YOUR brokerage account, you have to tell the bank WHICH stock you want to buy and at WHAT PRICE because you have to spend the full deposit amount. wtf
-
Dan (@Dan_Trend) reported@ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Yeah I've got them fixing a bug in adaptive algo, takes persistence.

Smok'n Vader (@BulletOneOneTwo) reported@IBKR Hey IB- why can I only buy Bitcoin via Paxos using a stupid 'minutes' order and not a normal buy stop limit?
-
Major Max Bitcoin (@MajorMaxBitcoin) reported@WolfBBoehme @IBKR I think their phone app is good but the regular web login page is clunky. I dont like using the fancy trader workstation of any broker
-
Stan (@0xstajus) reported@ozgsol @solana @IBKR "Based on the most recent updates from Interactive Brokers (as of early 2026), USDC deposits are currently not widely available for all international clients, including those in Serbia, as the service is initially limited to verified U.S. clients." Oh well :)

wilder_mine (@wilderminephoto) reported@IBKR it's a pain in the *** to get in touch with your Funds And Banking service and sessions expires kicking people out. U used to be much much better.
-
Republicans_may_Suck_BUT_Democrats_swallow (@Authentic100pct) reported@IBKR I want my funds and you keep trying to make me run in circles to do it. I am being prevented from withdrawing my funds. I need to close my account and withdraw my full balance immediately. I have been unable to submit a support ticket through your system. This is unacceptable. I require immediate assistance or I will be filing complaints with FINRA and the SEC.

Lilo (blkn/acc) (@liloo_sol) reported@ozgsol @solana @IBKR Non-EU people know this pain all too well 🥲 Luckily we have Solana to fix it 🙌🏻
