Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • WheelerDimitri Dimitri Wheeler (@WheelerDimitri) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Their hedge funds clients purchase their retail customer data to try and beat us at investing. They don’t want to hurt THOSE client relations at the expense of our relations...

  • Jimrdnr Jim Reirdon (@Jimrdnr) reported

    @IBKR WTF are you doing, I thought this was a free market. I guess its only a free market for the Wall Street gang. You suck, never use you!!!

  • CRYPTOSPARTANZ CRYPTO-SPARTAN (@CRYPTOSPARTANZ) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR My four accounts are having issues! TDA CHASE SCHWAB ROBINHOOD

  • rafal_ablewski Rafał Ablewski (@rafal_ablewski) reported

    @IBKR worst platfrom ever, can't trade, nothing ****** works.

  • Financialtailor Financial Tailor (@Financialtailor) reported

    @IBKR Bad call.

  • plumditty24 Tim Plummer (@plumditty24) reported

    $GME $AMC It looks like @MerrillLynch has joined the group of crooks, @IBKR @RobinhoodApp . When the movement happens, institutional banking will finally get theirs. You will all be wondering wtf just happened. Don't underestimate the internet.

  • phokkyu phokkyu (@phokkyu) reported

    @IBKR how does it feel to have Wall Street Brad's tiny **** shoved so far down your throat, ya ******* losers.

  • Geoffrey_Goff Geoffrey G (@Geoffrey_Goff) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR There's no way this is a serious question. I guess TD Ameritrade has the same problem, etc.

  • Pasquale_Spa Pasquale Spagnuolo (@Pasquale_Spa) reported

    @IBKR This is illegal, you can't remove the opportunity to buy! Just remove the options WTF!!!!

  • allensarkisyan Allen Sarkisyan (@allensarkisyan) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Every time a call option is purchased market makers need to hedge the position by purchasing stock. The short float is the problem IMHO

  • old_nextel An old nextel (@old_nextel) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR robinhood and other platforms are restricting buying so the big guys can short it. this is how the game goes, when the little guy starts to get ahead, knocked right back down.

  • Surf22211 Surf2221 (@Surf22211) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR How is this legal? They are driving the stock down now! Isnt this market manipulation??? Lead us in a lawsuit Mark!

  • baldfox Andy Howe (@baldfox) reported

    @IBKR bad show on #GME. If this isn't collusion I don't know what is. Fair enough you're funny about options but not allowing me to purchase the stock outright? Without using margin etc... Disappointing.

  • gdawg34093178 gdawg (@gdawg34093178) reported

    @IBKR Absolutely disgusting! You'd expect more from IB. This is blatant market manipulation. You are a part of the problem! #GME #GMEGANG

  • 2170cell gigabear (@2170cell) reported

    @IBKR Ay go **** yourselves

  • jetsyO_o El famoso piloto guero (@jetsyO_o) reported

    @IBKR easily the worst investing tool on the face of the earth. Useless customer service you could spend 3 hours on hold and still not hear from anyone. I don't understand why Folio ****** their customers by forcing us to go to these ****.

  • twb_3203 TageB (@twb_3203) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR I have no clue why people use Robinhood. I’ve heard nothing but bad things about the platform for a few years now.

  • ZacCain2 Zac Cain (@ZacCain2) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Citadel bails out Melvin Cap. Citadel also handles 60% of RH’s trades. RH needs Citadel,. GME, AMC, and NAKD are bad for Citadel, so now they’re bad for RH.

  • keren_wang Keren **** (@keren_wang) reported

    @IBKR This tweet is just trying to redirect our attention. Its funny and not working. Somehow you don't get that the small investors from today are going to be the investors and YOUR clients of tomorrow. You should invest in your clients and userbase.

  • towser44 Team Pete for Biden 🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈🍑 (@towser44) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR My trades in things like Apple kept giving error messages.

  • ryanshiner Ryan Shiner (@ryanshiner) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Because they don’t actually support the free market if the absurdly rich lose money

  • mk4y5 mk4y (@mk4y5) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Not a liquidity issue if you can still buy other stocks! -lebokid

  • GunnarWuher Gunnar Wuher (@GunnarWuher) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Please help fund a platform to trade freely. Unless there is a reverse course in a short amount of time by #RobinHood I will be removing myself from the app.

  • KyleSims89 Kyle Simcox @ Dead Pixel Gazette (@KyleSims89) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It's pretty damn wild I'll say that and crazy how fast they've moved to stop people from buying in on these things so they don't lose money.

  • seixybeast SeixyBeast (@seixybeast) reported

    @IBKR why ******** are you not letting me tradthis **** ******** u didnt say i can only liquidate. this is a breach of trust!

  • gdawg34093178 gdawg (@gdawg34093178) reported

    @IBKR Absolutely disgusting! You'd expect more from IB. This is blatant market manipulation. You are a part of the problem!

  • Sniff009 Sniffard (@Sniff009) reported

    @kingshaundiz @RobinhoodApp @IBKR After delving deeper, now I’m wondering if the person that made the post on Wall Street Bets knew about this issue beforehand help started this wildfire to screw over Robinhood which is supposed to IPO publicly sometime this year. It will be very interesting to see the aftermath

  • Beingpoorsucks1 Beingpoorsucks (@Beingpoorsucks1) reported

    @mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They could give a **** less about the poor

  • ImAnOldBluesMan Chris Hamilton 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@ImAnOldBluesMan) reported

    @IBKR What the “regulators” should be doing is perma-banning you from selling all volume based derivatives as you’ve had no problem getting paid to sell them all these years to users but now that volume is up think it’s ok to shut those same names down. **** you.

  • ilikeoptions ilikeoptions (@ilikeoptions) reported

    @IBKR **** off, you corrupt ********. You actively seek to harm your customers.
