@IBKR Well it definitely has poor customer service, I’ve been waiting over 2 months for my business account to get approved after waiting over 2 weeks for an application issue that was your fault to get resolved. 2.5 months later and still waiting…

@madaznfootballr Good job, congratulations! With my broker it is impossible to find stocks to short because after a run the next day they purposely don't let their customers. @IBKR Interactive Broker u are totally customer unfriendly and a scumbag company. 💩🤮 $ISIG

@IBKR I was disappointed with the live chat option on your website. OTP sending for my mobile phone number confirmation didn't work. I requested for a live chat assistant to help me today but no one came. #ComeOnGuys #YouGuysCanDoBetter

@IBKR But first, you'll have to spend a half hour trying to login to this 90s anachronism. No text, no login due to "IP address changed". Astonishing bullshit.

@averygrrl @IBKR “Prof” subs are just a small revenue stream for zero cost. **** em! Dodge that and life is good. The real Danger of retail is when vol spikes and there is no way to trade it. They’re all “down” Major part of my strat is to never get burned in those 30min craziness where $ made

@IBKR Listing the wrong cost basis for recent trades for the 6th trading day in a row. Cant get ahold for customer support. Closing my accounts with them. - They messed up the cost basis by more than $30 a share. Incredible.

@IBKR Compared to holding cryptocurrency, I prefer the stability of mining, which is similar to bank deposits, so there is no risk. The income from mining is several times that of the bank. Depositing money in the bank will only bring us a small amount of interest. The bank interest is

3/ ...to a new, client-friendly broker/custodian in 2022. I want what's best for my #Vailshire clients and @IBKR is failing them with terrible UI/UX and application/account services--despite years of complaints and suggestions. Sorry to rant.

Anyone else having problems with futures data on @IBKR tonight? I've been having issues with everyone, and I'm paying for all these separate feeds. About to cancel all my professional data subscriptions because half of them don't work. When one doesn't work, they're ALL useless.

@FlowAnalyst @IBKR It's working now, I think I somehow managed to download invalid instrument symbols for the ES? The heck.... how is that even possible idk TWS kept losing data itself, which makes using their API awful. Ah well, glad the ES didn't crash while I was fixing it, I'm 20 long.

@IBKR And certainly the worst broker to short stocks that have performed well a day before, because you can never short them with you, because there are supposedly no shares available, at least it is always your excuse! Only with you it is the case! 👌

The use of @IBKR will go down as one of the worst experiences of my life using a product. This wasnt a bad burger or a broken product. This was investments in our future made more difficult from this product. 1/2

@IBKR I began composing new tickets on 11/29 re: IRA Conversion. You have never responded to me. I decided to write ALL Departments. Where is the service. Obviously time sensitive but it seems you don't care.

@IBKR has been wonderful to work with untill today. The rep I worked with was unable to assist with a 3rd party wire. It ended with him saying IBKR cannot handle my needs and I can look for other brokers who may be able to. @IBKR can u help? @CharlesSchwab maybe we can we talk?

@IBKR A single platform is not a bad idea, but risks increase.
