    @IBKR I have been trying to open a professional account for a mounth now. (Charles Gave Media). I have sent absolutely every document under french law yet your compliance service, that must be outsourced, demands some more documents that do not exist under french law. You keep asking fir registre des bénéficiaires effectifs, we have given this document under lawyer signature many time now. You have the statuts, the Kbis, attestation from our lawyer, CEO signatures. After a month of going back and forth could you please, please DO SOMETHING about it?

    The AI customer support agents give you useless canned information. These AI agents do not understand the nuances of the qst, which is okay, but refusing to pass the qst to human agents in not okay. @IBKR I pay you guys serious money in commission. Can I get some help?

    @IBKR I just tried to open Live Chat, to get support, and all I get is Error 403 - Access Denied. Can you fix your platform, please?

    @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".

    @IBKR Your ticket response was awful. It was just a bot message that provided no assistance. I have now been subject to PDT blackout rules for seven business days. This is ridiculous.

  • IlhadoSteve
    Steve (@IlhadoSteve) reported

    @IBKR you have terrible cutomer service. If someone is denied a product and can't reapply for 30 days then how and when exactly are people supposed to get a chance to submit additional information for consideration? Your reps on the phone are so frustratingly stupid.

  • BullDriven
    BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported

    @IBKR Followed up with web ticket several times. Slow response and unable to to say when ibkr will announce info pertaining to pdt rule change. Disappointing as all other major brokers have announced and majority are ready day 1 on June 4th. Will be looking at others options if no news

    @IBKR what a painful experience is to use Interactive Brokers. Avoid it at all means. The server doesnt work or it is very slow way to often.

    @IBKR Hi @IBKR why is it so difficult to reach out to your customer support?

  • kirklsp
    Kirk Hartley (@kirklsp) reported

    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.

    @RetiredRtard @Wealthsimple I've had no issues with WS, I think they're great alternative to Big Banks, I use them and @IBKR for trading. There seems to be more to this story...maybe a probate issue

    Who's heading @IBKR product department? it looks like you guys put a lot of effort to make your UX terrible. Honestly if you pay me nothing I would do a better job

    Sparky Slims (@brothachucka) reported

    @IBKR is a garbage broker. I've been trying for 2 weeks to buy some international stocks and it continues to not work. Meanwhile I've had to watch my main pick go up 70%. I've reached out to support, wasn't helpful. Was told 2-4 weeks for a response on my followup ticket.

    @kiantrades @discord_support Yes, Discord and @IBKR both terrible services for traders. My rant for the day. Lol
