    @BrokersTiger Bad company, avoid trading on their platform. better use @IBKR better CS, better trading options.

  • robertnorton_ RobertNorton (@robertnorton_) reported

    @IBKR Interactive brokers. As opposed to what, automated brokers? It makes me think of, "Internet Service Providings"

  • GabrielLoyola20 Elliot-Wave Rider (@GabrielLoyola20) reported

    @IBKR weird but i just noticed my avg price on a stock changed like by 5 dollars WTF who do I call even my trades history shows at what price i entered the trade 😡

  • Hupa21 MadCuzBad (@Hupa21) reported

    @IBKR your site is breaking whenever one starts to transfer funds, DRS in and out. Please fix this asap!!!

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    alright im || close to ******* quitting trading retail forEVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ive never been so angry in my life and i havent felt a damn thing while trading for ages @IBKR needs to go out of business ASAP before more people lose their mind/money

  • JeffreyCxxx1 Jeffrey Cxx001 (@JeffreyCxxx1) reported

    @IBKR what’s wrong with the system ? I cannot send enquiry and I cannot access my account !! Help now.

  • jkm1317 Josh (@jkm1317) reported

    @IBKR why does your website suck so bad? How do new users get help with account management? Trading is fine, but everything else is horrific.

  • AmberEFT AmberEFT (@AmberEFT) reported

    @IBKR Worst service in the Industry!!! Tech support phone tree NEVER gets you to the right place! Software deletes windows from your setup daily and you have to re-add. General support hold is 30min + usually. WAKEUP IB! You know how bad your support is and dont care.

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @PolTimmer @IBKR *zero* shares of $XLRE printed at the price I was filled at, so it's going to be an issue. Orders with a "limit" or "price cap" option should be "limiting" or "capping" your downside, not upside. Marketable orders should be filled at market (with chosen DOWNSIDE LIMITS.) IMHO.

  • AmanGup42905275 Aman Gupta (@AmanGup42905275) reported

    @IBKR Well it definitely has poor customer service, I’ve been waiting over 2 months for my business account to get approved after waiting over 2 weeks for an application issue that was your fault to get resolved. 2.5 months later and still waiting…

  • sean_tha_savage Tee Sean (@sean_tha_savage) reported

    @JeffreyCxxx1 @IBKR Reach out to litetoolz via IG he'll fix it immediately

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @IBKR pro client here can you stop shutting your platform down at midnight every single night? kinda tired of losing thousands of dollars over your random restarts, data cuts and unannounced server outages trying to trade futures on IBKR is like lighting yourself on fire

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    I realize that this should not be a question for IBKR uses but for @IBKR themselves... Can we move the maintenance window for futures to 5-6PM ET?

  • chunnil64941434 Zambi2019: AAPL,SPY & SHIBmillionaire-DiamondHands (@chunnil64941434) reported

    @IBKR Are you worst broker in town? SAY_________________Yes

  • chunnil64941434 Zambi2019: AAPL,SPY & SHIBmillionaire-DiamondHands (@chunnil64941434) reported

    @IBKR Worst Brokers, ask anyone!

  • CosmicShiva221 CosmicShiva22 (@CosmicShiva221) reported

    @IBKR seriously what happened to your customer service within a few years, near impossible to reach someone, 10 to 15 mn wait. Then you ask one question and 10 more mn wait transfered to someone else...........

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @PoliJunkie20 @IBKR Already there. Vanguard for IRA, TD for Roth IRA, but will likely move it as they don't support automatic contributions, which is the key to maximizing returns, IMHO. Raise RAM quota in ToS, and you'll be good. Can use Medved Trader and a 3rd party for lagless data w/ ♾ levels.

  • BankofVol BankofVol 💉¹⁰⁰⁰ 🦠¹⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰ (@BankofVol) reported

    @Mike_Hunt_Sr @joyflow4 They tried to fix it but as everything at @IBKR fixing errors takes ages. It should be very simple though they just need to aggregate IB UK account and IB Ireland account and treat them as one consolidated account.

  • JeffreyCxxx1 Jeffrey Cxx001 (@JeffreyCxxx1) reported

    @IBKR I wait 20 mins on the line to get nobody on the line ?? WTF!!

  • DavidWJavid1 David W Javid (@DavidWJavid1) reported

    @IBKR NO TRANSPARENCY GIVES A BAD IMPRESSION TO THE EMPLOYERS, "WE THE PEOPLE" (JUST CAUSE THE DEVIL MADE YOU DO IT, DIDNT MEAN YOU GOT NO KARMA), FREEWILL TO DECIEVE THE MASSES, WITH SNAKE OIL, & *******, HOW INGENIOUS, IT GOT THEM A COUNTRY & CONTROL

  • uFck_Enrtopy left coast eddy (@uFck_Enrtopy) reported

    @JimJones1913 @IBKR A huge scam, period. Although it's hazardous to make predictions, it seems highly likely that the whole thing will come crashing down in the foreseeable future.

  • Financejunk1 financejunk (@Financejunk1) reported

    @IBKR ONLY USING YOUR PLATFORM AS I HAVE NO CHOICE. WILL EXIT AS SOON AS I GET SOMETHING ELSE. **** SERVICE

  • Plunk20 Mike Plunkett (@Plunk20) reported

    @IBKR has been wonderful to work with untill today. The rep I worked with was unable to assist with a 3rd party wire. It ended with him saying IBKR cannot handle my needs and I can look for other brokers who may be able to. @IBKR can u help? @CharlesSchwab maybe we can we talk?

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    Scared to use "take profit". Lots to love w/ IBKR, but the rest is AWFWUL. I've lost LOADS of $$ from connectivity/data failures, misleading design, lag/errors, faulty UI/UX, mis-quoting the NBBO, server outages, ACH unpredictability. So many bust-worthy orders. Fck U @IBKR

  • 60seconds16 60seconds (@60seconds16) reported

    @IBKR DO NOT USE THEM. Zero customer service Trader workstation CRASHES all the time (on a Mac) Just plain useless. Time to move to another platform

  • philbets2 phil bets (@philbets2) reported

    @EvanBleker @IBKR they are not a customer first service. ive been having similar issues its so frustrating. and what's even worse is their awful customer support who wont provide any details or information,. best of luck. use lightspeed in my opinion

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR When can we expect an actual working software? TWS is slow and freezes all the time. It’s a joke. Flipping through tickers is impossible. That crap should have been killed 10 years ago.

  • sinnet3000 Luis Colunga (@sinnet3000) reported

    @averygrrl @IBKR Are you running it on a Mac or Windows? There's a weird issue in Mac OS Monterey and only fixed in a beta version.

  • z87347610 Mandy Z (@z87347610) reported

    @IBKR Why my app is down again. So disappointed.

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @battousai1130 @IBKR No other broker has API access, low margins, free wire transfers, or access to all the products I trade, I'm using them for a reason, but this is too much with all the errors/disconnects They used to honor my deposits instantly, dunno what happened, but I use Vanguard/TD mostly
