Pupu Chen (@PupuChen4) reported@IBKR I’ve been a customer for 10 years. I’m quitting it n moving my pot over to another broker. Customer service sucks, they move your funds without your consent and are not forthcoming with the reasons for doing so

🅰️LB🅰️ (@ALBACapMgmt) reportedIm going to say something nice about @IBKR. After the Kospi futures and options debacle, they promptly recognised that clients may have claims and while I didnt really agree with the protocol for settling them, they settled them promptly with regular status updates. Not the worst.

You haven't been able to solve a critical problem for over 20 days now. Ticket #T877121. Are they sleeping on their beds. The issue has been escalated 4-5 times already. DO YOUR JOB!

RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported@IBKR Thanks but this doesn't and won't work. I don't have my account info so when I call, it rejects me. Why is there no way to fix this I have money in my account but I can't access it
-
RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported@IBKR R U not even reading what I am saying?? When I call the customer support numbers you direct me to the automated response demands my account number which I cannot access RU simply an automated response as well??
-
Martin BC (@MARTINPARK111) reported@IBKR Exactly. A clever model inside a broken process is still a broken process.
-
Jesus (@CCrypto1001) reported@IBKR It's impossible to contact IBXR support: 1(877)442-2757, it doesn't work. I can only hope that the issue they fabricated to keep my $3464.85 cash will be returned to me someday. U25159972

Nate (@nathan96911) reported@IBKR I have spent the week trying to get thru to a person to talk to about my account. Your automated phone service hangs up when you select speak to agent. It tells you to log in but it does not log in. And tells you contact customer service for login assistance.
-
WhiskeyAndIce (@OptionsWolf77) reported@Sanji_vals @IBKR You can use the second 2Auth with an authenticator app from google or microsoft. Just make sure to connect them with cloud. If you loose your phone, download the app on the new one and login wirh authenticator app. Its really annoying to contact support, which is so difficult.
-
J.J. Jejeebhoy (@jjeebhoy) reportedObscene for @IBKR to go down in the middle of a trading day
-
@Lionessxxxx (@Lionessxxxx1969) reported@IBKR Totally irrelevant **** advert authorised by Google. Muted, blocked, dislikes reported as Spam & Google still put in on my timeline. The advertiser & Google can **** off for spam scamming me
-
fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported@IGcom @Therichardralph @IBKR Says the company whose platform is down at a crucial time of day as market opens in US. I would suggest looking at ii - they are a quality operation unlike IG. IG will just disappoint.
-
RoninTraders (@RoninInvestors) reported@Therichardralph @IBKR Hey, was thinking of opening an IBKR account for S&S ISA, do they support 24/5 trading like trading212? Searched online but getting mixed answers
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported@IBKR No I'm moving to another brokerage. It's 2026 I'm not submitting web tickets when I'm trading $100k positions. You guys can pick up a phone like every other normal brokerage. Take some tips from Schwab and you guys need better customer service, app UX and really everything.
-
Natalka (@NataliiaKoval) reported@IBKR Phone support in 2026? I’m constantly traveling and changing phone numbers to the country I’m visiting. I don’t have a permanent phone number. That’s why I can’t login as you blocked the possibility to change phone numbers.
