    @IBKR I'm done with you A.I. I've filed a complaint with the SEC. Maybe that will get your attention.

    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

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon And your customer service is even worse than your software. If you are not already using IB stay away from them they suck.

    @keoneHD @IBKR Poor infrastructure simply scales problems faster. Good infrastructure scales opportunity.

    @Reetard_ @IBKR Their mobile app. It's just clunky and slow and lags.

  • GomesNayagam
    GomathiNayagam (@GomesNayagam) reported

    @IBKR i day trade a lot, used IBKR desktop initially damn ******, so slow and refresh issue, no help, screen freeze at times, and then went back to traderworkstation, another major issue is PDT waive off kind of new feature IBKR taking long to implement.

    @IBKR Technical issues around SanDisk earning times yesterday was a bit suspicious? I have friends lost money as they couldn't close positions you will have a log of this as they called in too to have you market close their positions

  • D3GSolutions
    Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported

    My goodness I can't wait to leave @IBKR now Friday and today always communication errors when trying to load the option chain and can't make a move. You guys absolutely suck and don't care a bit about your clients. Spare me the web ticket message you're about to drop.

    @Therichardralph @IBKR I’ve tried three times to create an account and log in with IBKR and have only ever got an ‘unknown error’. Not had that problem with T212 or other apps

    @NickSchmidt Don't know about shitcoins. But for securities, there’s no comparison between HOOD and @IBKR on execution quality. I moved everything to IBKR a few years ago and never looked back.

    @LidoFinance @IBKR hot damn lfg!

  • ashrithgovind
    Ashrith Govind (@ashrithgovind) reported

    @defyneric i think its only because they issue cards to @IBKR clients. But not sure that if those volumes reflect here. but highly possible!

    Wanda Case (@WandaCase9l) reported

    @IBKR “Trust” should be verifiable: disclose custody, execution quality, fees, margin rules, and protections by jurisdiction—not just global reach.

  • _AcumenVentures
    Tim Williams (@_AcumenVentures) reported

    @jeremiahrogers @IBKR is horrible and their customer service absolutely sucks! Tried them and couldn’t wait to get my funds out - which they held for a stupid amount of time.

  • TT_stocks_
    The Titan Traders (@TT_stocks_) reported

    @D3GSolutions @IBKR Incredible there isn’t a good broker to use in 2026. TD Ameritrade was hands down the best but it’s gone now and nothing even compares now. Pathetic

  • joewechyy

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon I need help

  • tamir_oded
    Oded Tamir (@tamir_oded) reported

    @IBKR It takes more than 10 days to open account in Israel and still waiting . This is level of service of the 80'.

  • _charles289
    Carlos Dos Santos (@_charles289) reported

    Has anyone else had issues with Trading Permissions for US penny stocks on @IBKR? Their customer support isn't the best either... way too slow.

    @IBKR IBKR desktop Mac version is not loading the charts from last release you did, can you fix it?

  • WandaCase9l
    Wanda Case (@WandaCase9l) reported

    @zxc68984008 @IBKR Low rates help, but leverage still magnifies mistakes. Read the margin rules, liquidation policy, and cash-rate eligibility before opening an account.

    @NotA_Bull you guys have been posting so much FUD all weekend I opened up @GodelTerminal and @IBKR expecting a slaughterhouse scene, and ... it's not that bad? And the $VIX is still relatively low at 15.27

    @IBKR Fix first your login form and recovery instructions

  • iamshraey_
    Shraey (@iamshraey_) reported

    @IBKR I did that and out of frustration I have written here as they are asking to use my passport when passport is not in one of the options offered for Australia clearly documented in the ticket and screenshot I submitted. They only offer Australian drivers license and then on submission call id type invalid. The tech team on a call just mentions to try again rather than solving the issue and a musical chair game is going on between support and tech folks.

    @IBKR can you please fix your systems? Gosh it's market open and not being able to login to manage our trades is costing us.

    @youngstockuser @IBKR Technical issues are always frustrating. Hope everything is back to normal.

    Ugh, calling @IBKR for the 13th time in 10 business days to try and resolve what I believe to be a simple issue 😡

    Jesus (@CCrypto1001) reported

    @CarolAn64246005 @IBKR I was about to withdraw $3464.85 in cash to transfer to my bank, and after waiting a month, they suddenly invented an issue to keep my money for a while. This is a scam.U25159972
