    $IBKR @IBKR is IMHO clearly aiding & abetting hedge funds & #Citadel to escape the trap they are in #InteractiveBrokers knows retail have the upper hand, so Interactive Brokers are screwing retail to help out their insider buddies @SEC_Enforcement @SECEnfDirector $GME $AMC

    @GatorStockChomp @NirmalREI @IBKR Yeah, really. I've used them for 20 years and can count on one hand the number of time the platform has been down. Really.

  • ergodrake Christopher Drake (@ergodrake) reported

    @IBKR How do I get help? There is no chat, can't send a message - everything just links to confusing written instructions that for my case do not work.

  • KeithMontana9 Keith (@KeithMontana9) reported

    @IBKR Would want to hope my Doctor is quicker at getting back to me than your support team, A week today waiting on a web ticket response, Great job...

  • danushman dan ushman (@danushman) reported

    As a software vendor myself in the trading tech world, I have to say ... @IBKR give me a ring! You need some engineering help and clearly your people aren't up to it. Let Uncle Dan fix it for ya!

  • glgallucci ElliotWavey (@glgallucci) reported

    @IBKR WOW So after not being able to sell my position I then wait on hold for 40 minutes for my call to drop! This is ridiculous - treat your customers with care, we're paying thousands in Commission fees yearly for you to be of no help.

  • MonyMkinMachin Y (@MonyMkinMachin) reported

    @IBKR Lol fix your ******* connections first

  • glgallucci ElliotWavey (@glgallucci) reported

    @IBKR Cant even get support if you wanted too - Waiting on hold for customer support to hang up and then go to my Portal to see Support is "currently unavailable" through chat. ARE you kidding me? We're trusting you with our hard earned money and cant even get in contact?

  • PepperpotSalty SaltyPepperpot (@PepperpotSalty) reported

    @JeromeTrankle @IBKR @AllyInvest Not even trying to trade GME, im just trying to login to IBKR, cant even do that.

    @IBKR 500 ERROR WHAT ******** IS WRONG WITH THIS **** PLATFORM?

  • InnocenceCapit1 InnocenceCapital (@InnocenceCapit1) reported

    @GrantHesser @IBKR Just to be clear here, they don’t need to put their firm b/s at risk so chuckleheads can do stupid things without posting adequate collateral.

  • ronwichgers Ron Wichgers (@ronwichgers) reported

    @danushman @IBKR No problems here with IBKR. (Europe)

  • machim529 Max (@machim529) reported

    @IBKR have been on hold for half an hour waiting for support 🥴

  • keny2b ken yasny (@keny2b) reported

    @IBKR this sounds like something Pacific Western Bank would encourage people to do and then they would take their homes if they got into trouble – like lost a job in a pandemic or was discriminated against getting a mortgage. Pacific Western Bank doesn't seem to care about ANY lives

  • student__OfLife StudentOLife (@student__OfLife) reported

    @IBKR You’ve shown your true colours IB. Really disappointed, I was recommending people to your platform, and now it’s the other way. The CEO embarrassed the company on TV. Hard workers in there should whistle blow and come forward to help with the class action lawsuit.

  • Ronmon_m Aaron (@Ronmon_m) reported

    @IBKR Solid platform but horrible connection issues during times of volatility. Constant log outs.
