  @IBKR please fix your stupid, ugly iOS app. Pathetic in the age of AI. Cc @vladtenev

  I want to like Interactive Brokers, I really do. Excellent rates on cash/margin. Theoretically, they should be a top broker, but they need to purge and replace their engineering department. Login issues today, poor site performance most other days. You had one job. @IBKR

  @IBKR guys, you send out warnings about phishing attacks on IBKR accounts, but then also send out a mail about annual verification *WITH A LINK INCLUDED IN THE MAIL*. Come on. Stop including links in your official mails. Just tell us what to expect when we login. Not hard.

  @IBKR Not being able to see the performance of an asset when we are changing the time-frame, and letting it fix on the intraday only is so stupid guys

  @IBKR Unresolvable problem: blue "log in" button won't work for error "You are logged in without Trading/Market Data permissions You are not connected to the brokerage system (You may be logged in on another platform). The displayed portfolio and market data are delayed."

  @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!

  @belfort0609 @buyerofponzi @IBKR I'm hearing this is an increasing problem. You will be better off elsewhere .. IBKR went from a top tier broker to a bottom tier real fast as far as I'm concerned.

  @IBKR I have... they claimed they are waiting on finra regulatory notice but that is incorrect. That notice was issued 4/20/26 showing effective date 6/4/26. Other brokers are moving quick on this and your web ticket reps are uninformed. Many are waiting on this information. Pls help

  @IBKR your latest update to 10.45.1d and 10.46.1d broke the TWS RTD functionality. Customer support not responding. Will this get fixed?

  @IBKR Hi, your menu option IVR language accent is beyond understanding for Indian customer care number. Can you keep it Indian accent??

  Ponzi Trader (@buyerofponzi) reported 43 minutes ago

  The level of incompetence at @IBKR is impressive. 8 days I've had my account locked with a position open costing me thousands of dollars. Everyday I'm on the phone with them for hours being passed to the next department @IBKR you guys suck so bad

  Hey @IBKR ! Why is it that your stock newsfeed in the individual tickers is so bad? It shows completely irrelevant information 95% of the time. And if it's relevant judging from the headline it doesnt work half the time when you click on it. This is really annoying.

  @yeaaahzzz @IBKR It’s not terrible at all lol. Which platform do you think best? Or rather list a few that are materially better?

  @IBKR support is AI slop nonsense. Nobody responds sensibly. Utter garbage.

  @STACKDOE @IBKR When did you last use it and what's your specific issue? It's way better than e.g. Revolut. My only issue is it can be slow at times, especially with updating totals but is quite flexible. Alerts need work for sure.

  @IBKR Please inbox me for more information in and if you're willing to help me fix this issue you shouldn't (discriminate) due to financial capacity and I don't use the word discriminate lightly.

  @the_white_tig3r @IBKR Typically, no. You might exceeding the number of KRW you need to buy, and if you're in Europe, new stupid regulation (for which Europe is famous) won't let you buy even 1 KRW in excess if you have any margin anywhere. Reduce how many KRW you're buying and try again.

  @IBKR @thomaspeterffy For the life of me I dont know whats going on over at @IBKR but for a trader to not have the ability to do any spreads, iron condors or anything resembling a spread for over 3 months due to technical issues is a MAJOR MAJOR ISSUE!!!!

  @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.

  I recently opened an IBKR Darwin account @IBKR @Darwinexchange - i was told the process would take 1 day I got my approval and tried to access the services but hit with “ineligible” to add funds. Darwin have told me it’s in IBKR’s hands and they cannot help me. It’s been 10 days now and nobody can help me. Pretty shocking experience so far
