    @IBKR your latest update to 10.45.1d and 10.46.1d broke the TWS RTD functionality. Customer support not responding. Will this get fixed?

    @IBKR Be careful of stop orders duplication problems. -5% in my chase never refunded.

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR I told them to go **** themselves in the email closing my account. Never going back. Their building janitor can run their ops desk better than every keyboard monkey on there combined.

    @IBKR what maintenance??? App not accessible!!!

  • BullDriven
    BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported

    @IBKR I have... they claimed they are waiting on finra regulatory notice but that is incorrect. That notice was issued 4/20/26 showing effective date 6/4/26. Other brokers are moving quick on this and your web ticket reps are uninformed. Many are waiting on this information. Pls help

    @IBKR the speed for es quote is very slow!!!!!

    @MartyZimme90457 @IBKR @chinoalemano That's normal, because all the apps are showing the old numbers. The future is defined by stocks like $DGXX. I have no idea who this person is. But I can hardly imagine anyone being stupid enough to short this stock. Good luck to you!

    Arno (@arnoblits) reported

    @CharlesSchwab @IBKR I have gone through your standard support channels before, and the result is always a deflection of accountability back onto my local hardware. The issue is not my machine's optimization; it is the fundamental architectural bottleneck of your legacy Java-based platform.

    @IBKR you are not answering phone calls login is imposible! No chat available with real answers . I need a live person for my boss

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR Terrible service, perhaps the worst. I've had countless glitches and had my account locked before too.

    @IBKR I just tried to open Live Chat, to get support, and all I get is Error 403 - Access Denied. Can you fix your platform, please?

    My current long stocks in order of portfolio allocation %: $IREN $EOSE $NUAI $KRKNF $CIFR $OSCR $DGXX $POET I have mostly diversified because it makes me able to buy more IREN. @IBKR concentration house rules are the worst.

    @stan100x @IBKR Why do you think a different brokerage will help with this? Anyway try out tastytrade, they have lower fees at least

  • mjy220
    Michael (@mjy220) reported

    @IBKR your service model is broken. I opened an account, got an account number, initiated funding it, and missed an email that the passport was grainy, was subsequently rejected and now can’t get in touch with a person.

    @IBKR Go **** yourselves.

    @RabbittLeader @IBKR But if Musk is willing to throw stupid money at shorting, for the bigger prize of his IPO offer price, could he not be a big AST price influencer pro temp?

    @yedior @GracyBitget @IBKR Please elaborate further on your concern or you may send us a direct message to properly address the issue.

    @SOBRBC @IBKR If you got the "missing libxcb cursor library" error during installation,try using Synaptic Package Manager and search for libxcb-cursor0 and install that and then the IBKR Desktop install should work.

    Wow, @IBKR is giving me so much trouble. Considering closing with them to move somewhere else. Can’t deal with the hassle anymore.

    Interactive Brokers seems to have lost my deposit. They already had my bank details and names but the customer services insist on asking me to provide proof of transfer again, otherwise they won't look into it. Is it strange? @IBKR @IBKR_Europe

  • ilisteninnwohio
    musictalklistenerohio✂️ (@ilisteninnwohio) reported

    @renatodelarento @Trading212 @IBKR IBKR: interesting info. But 4me, I can't digest all the incoming on the investment front for myself. That's why I'm willing to pay someone (they get a cut of my investment) who is more trained than myself. My training: fight fires, b a paramedic, fix auto body's, & not worry.

  • TheBigBerbowski
    TheBigBerbowski (Jebaim) (@TheBigBerbowski) reported

    @SixSigmaCapital @IBKR Did you submit deposit request first, and sent money after? Stupid question I know, but if not done in this very order it can cause hours of delays with your deposits.

    @trader2179 @IBKR @whop Or IBKR has to explain why there’s a mathematical error in the post that is now deleted.

  • ivrespecter
    Zhu Su (Positive Doom Baller) (@ivrespecter) reported

    Just got all my clients to accept leaving @IBKR for another broker. Feels good. It's not the stinking pile that is TWS, or the costs, or the smug arrogance of the back office. It's the mindset that produced layer upon layer of problems with security, the API, and data calls.
