Vikas kumar (@Vikasro50357845) reportedDear Interactive Brokers, I’m an Indian investor facing issues with funding my account. Support is not responding properly. Please help urgently. @IBKR
-
Philoinvestor (@philoinvestor) reportedIs @IBKR Flex Query web service down?
-
LeonNoelLion (@LeonLionNoel) reported@IBKR Go **** yourselves.
-
The Boston View (@TheBostonView) reportedWhen you reflect on the very poor customer support offered by @IBKR, the endless software glitches, and the that they don't even bother to produce a well designed app for the iPad--consider this: the company has enormous cash on its balance sheet. It could fix it all anytime.
-
STACKDOE (@STACKDOE) reported@IBKR by far one of the worst ui is ancient its 2026 ! mobile app made to make you lose money... not sure who even gave it the green light. just awful on so many levels.
-
One Fib Per Day (@fibscalper) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR They do suck bad I removed all my funds.
-
Jim Baranello (@BaranelloJim) reported@IBKR Hate to say it as an IBKR user but the platform is the absolute worst of any of the major retail brokers for active trading. Clunky and not intuitive. IBKR has great access to virtually all financial products and international markets but wish they would invest more time or energy on the platform itself. Looks like im not the only one who feels this way.
-
BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported@IBKR Followed up with web ticket several times. Slow response and unable to to say when ibkr will announce info pertaining to pdt rule change. Disappointing as all other major brokers have announced and majority are ready day 1 on June 4th. Will be looking at others options if no news
-
joez.eth (@fbjoe) reportedWho's heading @IBKR product department? it looks like you guys put a lot of effort to make your UX terrible. Honestly if you pay me nothing I would do a better job
-
biotech_moo$e (@biotech_moose) reported@DrakeMEMENah @nakedjockman @IBKR I don't believe retails only own 58.99% of the float, it's inferred from self-reported tute data. Brokers never report retail $AMC holdings which allows ongoing fraud. IBKR Robinhood & other platforms continue to loan retail shares (that's part of the problem).
-
DevilsFootnote (@devilsfootnote) reported@bclund @IBKR that's your fault.... STUPID!!!
-
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.

-
NottsStargazer 🔴🚀📈 (@Nottsstargazer) reported@IBKR support is AI slop nonsense. Nobody responds sensibly. Utter garbage.
-
Kuro Katball 🐈⬛ (@KuroKatball) reported@IBKR How do I get a human tech support person on the line? I specifically wanted help with an issue because the iBot information is not helping at all, but all I get from support is more copy paste AI answers and they keep closing my ticket without even reading my question.
-
SpackySpacky (@spactastical) reported@IBKR One of the least aesthetically designed desktops and least intuitive interfaces every made. So bad it actually takes effort.
-
DWmontgomery (@DWpaMont) reported@IBKR bad product
-
EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported@IBKR Terrible broker with so many new restrictions and glitches.
-
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.
-

-
Mark Bratt 🔻🔻🔻 (@MarkBratt924939) reported@Prometheus2025 @IBKR I don’t, but if I were a ****** capitalist I would own physical goods such as property, precious metal, guns, non taxable physical coin collection. Paper is coming to an end and US Tbonds are going down to CIPS and destruction of the petrodollar.
-

-
Matthew Donegan-Ryan (@MatthewDR) reported@JOBhakdi I’ve done that using @Fidelity a half dozen times. The UI is atrocious but at least it isn’t as bad as @IBKR
-
RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported@IBKR The problem is that when I call to get help, I get five minutes of yadda yadda and then it tells me to login online and hangs up. You have effectively cut off all means of contact to get help.
