@alluvialcapital @IBKR Ugh, transfer agents are terrible and IBKR is terrible on non-routine things. Any idea where the hold up is? If you have a sales contact at IBKR they might be able to be helpful working the system at IBKR. If the issue is the transfer agent, company IR can help on that

@IBKR Lmao. TWS is a useless crap of a software. Never used anything as bad. Loading and switching charts takes forever. Latest and beta versions freeze the software for 1 minute multiple times a day. This company is a joke, you can’t provide your clients with good trading products.

@Jesper44457672 @IBKR There is a glitch and no IPOs in the pipeline appear to be in TWS right now, I'm going to restart TWS after it starts trading, then try to enter it in and trade it if it is hopefully in there

Yikes, I cannot get @IBKR TWS to launch *at all*, I can't uninstall it, and I can't install a new copy. The installer/launcher show a flash screen and then the process just ends... I've had this happen with other programs (discord just did it yesterday), forgot how to fix it

@Orangutrader1 @IBKR The thing is that they know it perfectly well but keep abusing their clients with their non existing support and outdated platform.

Say what you want about @TheTerminal , but their helpdesk is the most responsive i've ever encountered... @Refinitiv on the other hand, as bad as @IBKR Waiting for more than 30min to be picked up by a support rep

@danifussers @IBKR If all the brokerages use DTC, and DTC is the problem, how is transferring your shares going to help? Seems fishy.

@IBKR Instead of adding useless, low-effort features: Think about, if you want to invest in core business software like updating your main trading screen TWS, which is an embarrasement. And for ****'s sake: Do sth about that abysmal market data quality!

@IBKR agree with @whitebreadfox Basic charting is not working and still no fix after weeks of garbage. Stop wasting time on useless bells and whistles and sort out basic, core functionality

@alluvialcapital @IBKR I've had a problem when the company had veto power over transfers (in order to protect tax status allegedly). Needed a letter from the company authorizing it. Took a long time to figure out what the obstacle was.

Time for my semi annual **** @IBKR tweet. You pay enormous commissions, pretty sure I paid nearly 50k last year, and they still **** you. Looks like we will be unable to trade the IPO $TPG today due to some incompetent glitch on there end. Might be time to finally leave them.

@IBKR Yeah but the service is horrible. System down 30% of the time and you can’t make trades when you need to! Constantly being logged off site and very buggy

@alluvialcapital @IBKR Also a lot of BDs are doing significant cost cutting with management and not necessarily knowing nor having experience in those nuances. They are gearing operations towards cheaper reps and customer management. I call it managing out their customers.

@Sequoia8867T @IBKR Which is my problem. This entire scam is based on more and more people giving "him" money for this "virtual asset". Then one day "he" decides to cash out. It crashes and everyone's left holding their hand on their butt. It's Ponzi on steroids.

@IBKR I deleted my application because of a wrong address and wanted to reapply, but now I can't even log in, receiving an error message "Your application was deleted.". This is so impractical, how am I supposed to reapply if you don't even let me log in...

@IBKR TWS sucks. It is THE WORST trading platform available. Charts are loading forever so you can’t trade from that crap. Why add useless stuff? Fix the basics. A user must be able to quickly flip through different tickers.

@IBKR TWS keeps freezing, causing me to abort. Charts still not working after weeks and weeks of issues. Sort out your platform please
