    @IBKR how do I reach someone in customer service?

    @mclaughli46343 @rogerhamilton @IBKR Sure looks like PR is coming. And now Clayton is being exposed by sec that Rico case should be juicy. And Moe and Ritz getting taken down across multiple lawsuits.

    @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!

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR They do suck bad I removed all my funds.

    Everybody is talking about the @RobinhoodApp MCP, but almost nobody is talking about @IBKR launching something similar. Interesting choice, though: @IBKR went with a ChatGPT app instead of an MCP server, so I can't actually use it in codex. Only in ChatGPT.

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

    @IBKR @D3GSolutions The app us awful. I switched back to workstation still bad but better than the app.

    @grok @IBKR Truthifi has very limited hardcaps and other problems and doesn’t do much.

    @IBKR Your charts are freezing and I am in the middle of a trade. Your software is truly the worst around. Absolute garbage. Anyone not using IB that wants to consider it should runaway. Terrible custmer service and software that acts and feels like it is from the early ninties.

    @ASTS_SpaceMob I'm not worried. Launch in around 2 weeks. I can take 10% hit. The only people who benefit from selling are the enemy shorts. MoC is up, available shares to short are down by 75% with @IBKR. Only way we go down is if someone wants to buy at a lower price - propably significantly more than you paid yourself. Dont sell, price goes up. It really is that simple.

    @IBKR @bclund 1/10 customer support 10/10 platform. Spend money on humans.

    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.

    There are hundreds of incredibly annoxing things about @IBKR TWS but the worst is that you always have to add implied vols to option chains and watchlists because they dont save. Anyone found a way round this ? 🙏

  • MarkMeyerBuilds
    Mark Meyer (@MarkMeyerBuilds) reported

    I deposited 5k into @IBKR to test out my trading bot being they have API available.. I have already withdrew the money back out for two reasons. One, the gateway portal seems to have been created in 1998. Awful UI. Second, and the most pertinent was the death by auth codes.

    joe (@Yogithebearish) reported

    @IBKR Your investment into support is FAQ and AI. That is not helpful. What is helpful is talking to people. Hire people to do the job not a robot because trying to navigate you FAQ and AI to get to a location to speak with a person is a frustrating nightmare.

    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.

    I'm a client of both Chase and Interactive Brokers. Does anyone at @Chase know why Requests for Payment I initiate from @IBKR do not show up for approval on Chase's website or your app? I've wasted well over 60 minutes talking to your help line and they have no clue. Thank you.

    joe (@Yogithebearish) reported

    @IBKR Just fix your ****** platform and stop trying to blame my network. This is 2026. When I log into TWS I feel like I am using an Atari. Get update to date.

    @IBKR Could you change the requirement for proof of overseas address to proof of address? Countless Chinese people are blocked from registering because of this address issue.

    @solana @calilyliu Tokenized. Cool. @IBKR has it too - regulated, insured, no seed phrase (to loose). Liquidity on Nasdaq ≈ no problem

    @IBKR Also your support is terrible. It is absolutely useless. Which is why I come here to complain.

    @hanshaozi @IBKR I’m interested, too. @IBKR Would you at least address this issue publicly and state when do you plan on removing PDT rule??

    @ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Hi I don’t know anything about IBKR…But I have found this comment from Gemini pro 3.1. It might help, who knows: “If all else fails, many traders create a dedicated "Custom View" in the Option Chain (gear icon -> *Settings* -> *Column Management* -> *Custom Views*)

    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.
