    @IBKR what are you going to do about my account that still has money inside but able to sign in or reset, stupid thing is, I need to sign in to submit a ticket. Phone support not useful, they say unable to find my account. I have screenshots of me transferring money in the account

    @SquawkStreet @IBKR It's impossible to contact IBXR support: 1(877)442-2757, it doesn't work. I can only hope that the issue they fabricated to keep my $3464.85 cash will be returned to me someday. U25159972

    I have an open position but @IBKR has kindly told me to f off at least twice now with no ETA on a fix. Their traders can't even close my position. Why is this ok? @CFTC

    @IBKR Ur total garbage. I switched from schwab and swith back after one day. U dont tell people u have to have 100k to get best margin rate then at 1259. All margins go up to 50% and u sell some of my stocks. Customer service is trash also..u should be shut down

    @RetiredRtard @Wealthsimple I've had no issues with WS, I think they're great alternative to Big Banks, I use them and @IBKR for trading. There seems to be more to this story...maybe a probate issue

    @cashflow_king94 @Trading212 @IBKR Only issue with IKBR is they won't accept partial ISA trsnsfers in. Has to be the full portfolio for any given year.

    @IBKR Please help me retrieve my account. Share the step-by-step process? If not, should I close my IBKR account?

    @IBKR October 2025 to 17th June 2026..... is within your service timeframe of 1-3 business days. How long is a business day in the galaxy you are writing from?!

  • danielhitome
    Y. Daniel Cheng (@danielhitome) reported

    @IBKR you expect people to respond to account messages in message center while banning people from accessing the message center, amazing. How many system issues you receive and ignore every day?

  • HappyHkL1
    HappyHKL (@HappyHkL1) reported

    @IBKR It’s been half an hour and the system is STILL down! Everyone on X/social media is furious right now. Users are taking huge losses because of your outage—how are you going to compensate us for this? Fix this NOW! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • _AcumenVentures
    Tim Williams (@_AcumenVentures) reported

    @jeremiahrogers @IBKR is horrible and their customer service absolutely sucks! Tried them and couldn’t wait to get my funds out - which they held for a stupid amount of time.

  • MtnMuzz
    Murray Finlayson (@MtnMuzz) reported

    @IBKR what is wrong with your website? I set up my account for withdrawals and have sufficient funds. So WHY does the confirmation keep throwing an error? And why is there NOBODY to speak to?

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Another week passed. GET RID OF THE GOD DAMN PDT RULES!!! What makes you so slow? Inability?

  • nathan96911
    Nate (@nathan96911) reported

    @IBKR I would not recommend using this brokerage service as they seem to completely ignore any customer service. No human answers their telephone customer service line.

    BorrisBOMBA (@thecracker_23) reported

    @IBKR Hi @IBKR why is it so difficult to reach out to your customer support?

    @IBKR is down during trading hours. This is the first time this has happened to me. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue and unable to log in to their account?

  • Ramblin_Rebel13
    Long & Right (@Ramblin_Rebel13) reported

    @FredrikEJohans2 @IBKR @CFTC It eventually got corrected after several hours, had to test it every 15min. But never got a notification on why it happened or when it was supposed to be resolved. Submitted a complaint to the CFTC regardless, super unprofessional reckless

  • alpha_imag8252
    DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported

    @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.

  • iamshraey_
    Shraey (@iamshraey_) reported

    @IBKR trying to open an account, but the only ID option shown is an Australian driver’s licence, and submission always fails with invalid ID type. Support keeps telling me to upload a passport which isn’t even an available option or try again as it might be tech glitch. Is this a serious platform with tech or support team or just GPT-4 era vibe coded?
