    @D3GSolutions @IBKR Worst customer service in history I’m not joking. Took them (6) months to reach out to me about my inquiry about a simple rebate on my $371,000 in commissions I spent. At the end of it all they said there is nothing they can do. ******* worthless

    @keoneHD @IBKR Poor infrastructure simply scales problems faster. Good infrastructure scales opportunity.

    Has anyone else had issues with Trading Permissions for US penny stocks on @IBKR? Their customer support isn't the best either... way too slow.

    @IBKR today I have tried to open TWS in 3 different PCs and it stalls at the "reading layout configuration" screen. I uninstalled the latest version of the software and installed the stable version and had the exact same results. Never had this problem before. I accessed your website and there is no record of such problem currently.

  • FactPulse93508
    FactPulse (@FactPulse93508) reported

    @IBKR Literally the worst broker imaginable. They block tickers now, they price cap anything remotely volatile, even large caps so you're stuck in a bad trade or can't enter a good one. This broker is anti-success. High fees and trading interference. Run from this broker.

    @IBKR Sorry for my question but I'm out of the loop on BTS and Jikook news because I've had a terrible headache. Are Rm, Jin and Suga in Paris? I only saw V, Hope and Jk stuff in Paris.

  • D3GSolutions
    Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported

    IBKR has made me lose so much money it's gross. Can't sell covered calls on positions I own? Why? I'm in a margin account with positive SMA etc?!? @IBKR no help from the trade desk and as of yesterday a senior trade desk rep didn't even know your own margin rules.

    froyomofo (@froyomofo1) reported

    @IBKR I put a ticket in FOUR DAYS AGO and still nothing back. Why ******** should I keep using a platform where I can’t get an answer to a question in a reasonable amount of time?!

    Hey @IBKR how can you be so good at executions and soooooo bad at pretty much everything else?

    DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported

    @IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???

    @defyneric i think its only because they issue cards to @IBKR clients. But not sure that if those volumes reflect here. but highly possible!

    Sidenote, is IBKR TWS crashing for anyone else? Had to switch to IBKR Desktop (which I hate, the font is tiny and you can't change it, fix this @IBKR).
