    @IBKR So you guys are playing accounts liquidation, customers cannot transfer money between own accounts in order to cover margins, since transfer page is not working. I am going to fill a complain to CBI

    @IBKR lol this hits different when you're already down 40% on some random altcoin, ibkr dashboard just feels too clean compared to watching charts on your phone at 3am

    @ChizaramNelo @IBKR Most day traders lose money. I don't want to be in that group. So I'm more of a swing trader - taking my time and watching for trends and opportunities. They should really teach this stuff in school, but teachers themselves are typically very bad with money anyway.

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

    @IBKR Really need to work on the UI and also if the website is going to be so complicated you need to make accessing live support much less difficult

    @blondesnmoney as @IBKR number 1 influencer can you plz suggest they fix their web app while you're at it..

    Happy 19-year customer of @IBKR here. This is the first feature WS rolled out where I'd consider moving all 6 of my accounts. Let me know an ETA for when you can ship this, I'd rather not move.

    @IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???

    @blahajcapital @IBKR Im guessing they dont have enough onshore margin posted to cover their clients positions...there are no exchange problems....its bullshit

  • NBee007

    I thought @IBKR was a reliable, scaled, professional brokerage. How can people trust this company with a seven figure net worth when the website doesn’t even work? Anyone else having trouble with this? #brokers #trading

    Good grief @IBKR how can your app be this bad? I thought TOS at Schwab was bad but take me back!!!

    @TT_stocks_ @D3GSolutions @IBKR Schwab isnt bad. but they dont really let the digital penny stocks too much.

    @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?

  • 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?

  • D3GSolutions

    @Reetard_ @IBKR Their mobile app. It's just clunky and slow and lags.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Change your God damn pdt rules. What makes you so slow in such a simple action!!! ??? A bunch of stupid IT do you really need so long?

  • iamshraey_

    @IBKR I did that and out of frustration I have written here as they are asking to use my passport when passport is not in one of the options offered for Australia clearly documented in the ticket and screenshot I submitted. They only offer Australian drivers license and then on submission call id type invalid. The tech team on a call just mentions to try again rather than solving the issue and a musical chair game is going on between support and tech folks.

    @ross_w__ @IBKR I’m stuck on that **** show !! Currently down 500k and counting **** I wish I thought about using Kosdaq as an hedge to flatten out when they failed to take my orders yesterday night

    @IBKR what a painful experience is to use Interactive Brokers. Avoid it at all means. The server doesnt work or it is very slow way to often.

    @keoneHD @IBKR Poor infrastructure simply scales problems faster. Good infrastructure scales opportunity.

    Has anyone else had issues with Trading Permissions for US penny stocks on @IBKR? Their customer support isn't the best either... way too slow.

    @SpaceX ****, only open to US residents in @IBKR

  • jminvesting
    John Martin (@jminvesting) reported

    I really want to use @IBKR and twice now I've tried to fund and set up an account. Their insistence on you having your phone nearby to check their mobile app for some code every 10 minutes has caused me to give up each time. Awful experience and poor security design.

    @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?
