Zhu Su (Positive Doom Baller) (@ivrespecter) reportedOn the @IBKR institutional Client Services line, an India call center handles my security issues. It takes >2 hours to work through my 2FA issues. On the @IBKR retail Client Services line, I speak to a US person and it takes less than 15 minutes to work through the SAME ISSUES.
-
DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported@IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???
-
Jona (@JJLDoc) reported.@IBKR You guys are the worst. I set to sell my position with a limit and it passed that limit but no fill. I canceled it and made way lower limit but no sell. Tried many time with no fill. When the IV crashed I put a sell limit it got filled. So pathetic 🙄
-
She Laughed (@TatsukiTop1) reported@IBKR Too slow...
-
jpemberthy (@jpemberthy) reported@alexkingsays @AskRobinhood Rey. Same experience. I eventually moved everything to @IBKR and haven’t looked back. Brokerage for adults, and actual customer support when you need it.
-
Mr Sinatra (@MrSinatra_MDW) reported@grok @IBKR Still no Grok access!!! wtf?!?!

-
PonziMaxi (@ChaserBid) reportedTrying to sort an @IBKR account with stables for 2 days, and it's just an all-round ****** experience. Still waiting for stablecoin approval, interface is horrible, bad UI. Been waiting 5 minutes for the deposit button to render. Do non-crypto folk just accept this as fine?
-
Jiri Vatka (@NSonic101) reported@IBKR where s your human support or at least support e-mail address in the app or web????????!!
-
M T (@mtaaafm) reported@IBKR your making life very hard for internationals to start a 1k till 100k challenge.. been trying to get in contact with someone to help for over a month now, and no response. I funded the account and placed every requirement. And still facing this problem.
-
Supernova (@supernovagab) reported@berniethebutler @citrini @IBKR is the only solution in europe
-
Pat_par (@parth_995) reported@IBKR my money is stuck in your complex account opening process where your team denied to move indian account to international so please help me withdraw money ASAP
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported@Reetard_ @IBKR Their mobile app. It's just clunky and slow and lags.
-
GrumpierByTheDay (@GrumpierBTDay) reported@Fidelity having problems two mornings in a row. Time to start shuffling money to @IBKR
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reportedGood grief @IBKR how can your app be this bad? I thought TOS at Schwab was bad but take me back!!!
-
MeversusMe (@Cruzdavidmiguel) reported@IBKR Worst broker in the business!
-
₿a ElenHODL (@BaElenhodl) reported@IBKR you want to margin call me without notifying me? On a recorded call you said you sent me a notification. I’m telling you I didn’t get one. Had I gotten one, I would have put more liquid in my account! **** you! I can’t win. Everyone wants my money! **** you
-
John Martin (@jminvesting) reportedI really want to use @IBKR and twice now I've tried to fund and set up an account. Their insistence on you having your phone nearby to check their mobile app for some code every 10 minutes has caused me to give up each time. Awful experience and poor security design.
-
Geodes R Rocks (@GeodesRock49) reported@NBee007 @IBKR Disaster trying to login through the Website Portal on a Lap Top, only to be directed to the Cell APP, then back to the Portal for another type of Code, a SMS Code, a Challenge Code, then to a page on the Lap top Website to scan a code on your phone app (why when I am logging in on my laptop??), then over here, then there, then 2 hours is gone and still cannot login. Cannot submit a request for help unless you can login. Try calling? Cannot understand what the person is saying. Pathetic Platforms. Then, as Ten Beers has observed, you get a Canned Response in "X".
-
Adam Voulstaker (@AdamVoulstaker) reported@ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Worst is anything automation. They are lunatics with that front
-
Ten Beers (@NBee007) reportedI thought @IBKR was a reliable, scaled, professional brokerage. How can people trust this company with a seven figure net worth when the website doesn’t even work? Anyone else having trouble with this? #brokers #trading
-
Aaron J. Fentress (@AaronJFentress) reported@IBKR Boston might come out okay down the road but in no way did they win this trade.
-
z1xus (@z1xus) reported@IBKR during the registration you can pick a password that is longer than 40 characters. that breaks the login in the mobile app (probably truncated client-side) until you change your password to one that is less than 40 characters. please forward to your portal engineering team or whoever that can investigate
-
ilia (@ilia_el_pro) reported@TheFlowHorse can i ask why when i trade on @IBKR i tried after hours etc and even if there is trade on nasdaq route at that bid price my bid orders is not execute even with 1% lower price or is like lagging sometimes to like that while hyperliquid/binance perps dont have this issue
-
BestVoyages (@best_voyages) reported@ChizaramNelo @IBKR Most day traders lose money. I don't want to be in that group. So I'm more of a swing trader - taking my time and watching for trends and opportunities. They should really teach this stuff in school, but teachers themselves are typically very bad with money anyway.
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reportedI have to switch brokers @IBKR has some serious issues with their app. It's like 10x slower than any other brokerage to navigate to trade. Then stop limits don't even work on stocks with a penny spread it's bizarre
