    @JasonAppel10 @IBKR All brokers have some system issues from time to time ! So, in that respect you can't guarantee 100% reliability anywhere. Still to find a broker that beats IBKR all things taken into account.

    Is IBKR Paper Trader currently down? Why donโ€™t I have permission to trade on the paper account anymore? @IBKR

    @IBKR WTF OS going on with your Customer Service phone support, been trying to get through for past hour. Your company is an embarrassing joke, worst service ever!!!

    @TheTechInvest @IBKR Lost over 30k on options lately, only doing sureish bets now lol; although in saying that did good last year, so canโ€™t complain

    @IBKR if you think I'm going to shut up. If you ignore me you've got a whole different problem. I will not back down or shut up until some responses found and a resolve of this issue is met

    .@IBKR what happened with leverage ETFs order. I see that suddenly I have started getting error that I donโ€™t have permission to trade this type of securities. Whereas I am trading leveraged ETFs since last six years without any issues except today.

    @IBKR I shouldn't have to say I have billions when I have a disability support pension and just want to get a foot up. I also want to invest in a company that I believe in that will help a project hopefully

    @super509219312 @IBKR This is obviously a different level of concern and seems to show that they're not being careful about their updates. In the 7yrs of using them, most issues have been the annoying types, not mini heart attack types For me, if there's another major type of issue, then I'm moving

  • HandsDiamo96856
    Diamond Hands (@HandsDiamo96856) reported

    @IBKR there is no way you are the #1 rated trading platform. When a client with $1 mm in liquid cash & 20+ years trading experience, and a credit rating of 800+ does not have approval to buy $IBIT you have a problem.

  • Investm80789211

    @IBKR Iโ€™m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me

    @IBKR You must have Push notification enabled on your Phone to confirm your withdrawal request within the app. Otherwise please login to Client Portal and confirm your Withdrawal request. ?

    Is anyone else experiencing an issue in IBKR TWS where alert lines stop appearing on charts, even though the alerts are still active in the alerts window? Iโ€™ve been dealing with this issue for years now ... ๐Ÿ˜ข @IBKR

    @IBKR hi , I think thereโ€™s an error with the total calculations when underlyings are in different currencies like ILS or EUR. The final daily P&L isnโ€™t converted to USD. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thanks !

  • sgoranova82
    Sabs Goranova (@sgoranova82) reported

    Would not recommend @IBKR to anyone at the moment. Locked out of trading account due to a system bug for a week. No one able to give an answer when this is fixed or resolved. No apologies, compensation or updates. Lousy customer care. Who is the regulatory body in the US?

  • AtierOfficial
    ATIER (@AtierOfficial) reported

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Been waiting a whole month for your Transfer team to reach out to my current broker so they can transfer all of my positions to IBKR. How is this normal? The most rubbish customer service I have ever seen. If you dont help me asap Iโ€™m going to cancel my transfer request.

    @IBKR Why doesn't the registration support Saudi Arabia?

    @simpelspekulant @IBKR Well, Nordea is the "quality" dividend name. Probably of the top banks companies in the world. Not cheap. UPM is interesting for their "hidden" energy holdings. Anora if you believe booze demand will rebound. Saga Furs for deep value play. Many names paying about 4-5%.

    @IBKR Your India ops is a complete circus. The simulation is a joke, your customer service is clueless. Zero faith in doing any trades thru you.

  • wilson_eth
    Colt45.eth (@wilson_eth) reported

    @TheTechInvest @IBKR The buyer of these is far more likely just playing the pop on the depressed option. Not bad news by any means but probably similar to the $700 tsla calls that keep coming through heavy.

    @IBKR serioulsy why do you signicantly changed the customer report settings?

    @BloomDemark @IBKR I tried. It says I donโ€™t have trading permission. Customer service taking forever to pick up

  • alanxyz129

    Interactive Brokers seems to have lost my deposit. They already had my bank details and names but the customer services insist on asking me to provide proof of transfer again, otherwise they won't look into it. Is it strange? @IBKR @IBKR_Europe

  • the1Gert
    JT Gert (@the1Gert) reported

    @AiStockAgent @IBKR Same issue, fixed it by going into settings->trading permissions ->edit and then switch permission on for something that wasn't previously selected. Solved it for me right away.

    If you're tired of spam calls and you don't want to pay for a streaming music service, just call @IBKR and sit on hold. You can stay connected for a long time before they answer and you won't receive any spam calls. win/win.

    @dontbsalti @IBKR @whop Deleting tweets after a photo shop error is definitely not a red flag at all. Totally definitely legit.

  • JacobMcGrew6

    @binaycjha @IBKR Same here. All trading permissions gone all of a sudden. Looks to be a system issue per how many other people are having the issue

  • Drcamole
    AngryPhysicist, PhD. (@Drcamole) reported

    @IBKR To issue a web ticket, I need to sign in, but my issue to start with is related to my inability to sign in. Possible to PM me and provide me some contact information in the form of an email or phone number to call that provides me a human to speak to who can verify me.
