    James Butler (@jbutlersg) reported

    @IBKR you guys have the worst most painful sign up process. Even just sent an email to support and even that came up showing an error. Why is it so difficult?

    Ugh, calling @IBKR for the 13th time in 10 business days to try and resolve what I believe to be a simple issue 😡

    @IBKR I can't open my IBKR account. It’s been inactive for 6 months and I've been trying to reopen it for the last 2 months. Why is the interface not user-friendly? I've also been contacting customer support for a month, but their responses aren't helpful...

  • MarkMeyerBuilds
    Mark Meyer (@MarkMeyerBuilds) reported

    I deposited 5k into @IBKR to test out my trading bot being they have API available.. I have already withdrew the money back out for two reasons. One, the gateway portal seems to have been created in 1998. Awful UI. Second, and the most pertinent was the death by auth codes.

  • funfoodlover
    Catherine898 (@funfoodlover) reported

    @IBKR I don't have money to invest. That is my main problem

  • 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.

  • sam_smms
    Samuel (@sam_smms) reported

    Hello @IBKR Can you explain what caused that issue? That problem is still where I made a deposit usdc today, but the amount is hold for a day

  • mreiffy
    Max the VC 👨‍🚀 (@mreiffy) reported

    @IBKR You guys legitimately have the worst ui/ux in the business. Not quite sure how it’s even possible given the opportunity before you

  • Hermes10wisdom
    Atman (@Hermes10wisdom) reported

    @IBKR you customer service is useless, not once did they mention how failed transfer attempts cost £££ each time. your website ui is awful. Attempted transfer failed twice now and you have taken all most of my £100 is fees… you need to make it clear for new users.

  • b_contrary
    Roman Lightman (@b_contrary) reported

    @IBKR Idiot deserves a good beating for being so stupid. Anyone foolish enough to leave a country that everyone else is risking their lives to get into that country gets what they deserve.

  • outlierrcapital
    Outlier Capital (@outlierrcapital) reported

    @IBKR still utterly screwing me. If $*** tanks on earnings today I will be broken...

    @ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Double the work, double the chance for error. Isnt tech great?

  • MKINC
    MillenniumKnight Inc (@MKINC) reported

    @IBKR Your status page is showing no issues, but for the last 2 hours I haven't been able to access my paper trading account. "NAV Calculation currently unavailable". What's up?

  • johnkmason
    John Mason (@johnkmason) reported

    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).

  • PeterCarli28957
    Peter Penny (@PeterCarli28957) reported

    @CoreyCicero @TT_stocks_ @IBKR No it isn’t- I tried that. It’s free IF you only trade market hours- anything PM OR AH is 1% fees. Not to mention when I went to pull my money out they made me send my ID AND a video of me holding up my passport saying who I was lmao. Again worst broker I’ve ever had and I’ve had every single one

    @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?
