-
TradeSetupsOnly (@Tradesetupsonly) reportedWow, @IBKR is giving me so much trouble. Considering closing with them to move somewhere else. Can’t deal with the hassle anymore.
-
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
-
MikasaSukasa (@MikasaSukasaN) reported@IBKR I am ok with a slow server if you guys find a way for people to invest directly from pakistan without having to use @wise or some other roundabout method
-
Katy (@Katy49889108) reported@jzrdan @IBKR You obvhourly signed up for new issue IPO alerts, receiving email notifications is standard....
-
TJ Brush (@xicbassix) reported@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.
-
Adaxelo (@RoiSinge) reported@IBKR take note . Please update your clients accordingly . You are too slow in this implementation, robinhood, webull, and others are ending PDT rule this week !
-
C.S.N. Iyer (@iyerchandrru) reported@IBKR Hi Facing problem in transferring funds, pls how to proceed further…
-
Abbie3 (@abbieelevinegm1) reported@IBKR how do I reach someone in customer service?
-
EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported@Terranatura4 @IBKR @IBKR used to have the best service, but they've been on a terrible decline over the last 2 years. I called because I was having an issue, and they told me there is no one to speak to by phone that I must file a ticket on the app. I did so, and it says it could take weeks for a response to the matter. Weeks?!
-
Lynda Holt (@travelynrose) reported@IBKR I expected better quality from you.
-
miracle-dan (@yunyuntian) reported@IBKR IBKR, I am a refugee and I want to support you, but you use address verification to shut me out.
-
jeff henderson (@ambusiness) reported@IBKR We are? Groceries, energy,unemployment and deficit spending are all up. GDP and world respect are down. How exactly are we "back"?
-
One Fib Per Day (@fibscalper) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR They do suck bad I removed all my funds.
-
jazz (@hspnyc) reported@IBKR please help.
-
kingran (@KingranYama) reportedThe 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?
-
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.
-
Outlier Capital (@outlierrcapital) reported@IBKR still utterly screwing me. If $*** tanks on earnings today I will be broken...
-
FrontRowBrian™ 🇺🇸 ₿ (@FrontRowBrian) reported@Cernovich and if you're going to borrow against your securites, use the right broker. @IBKR has *half* the rates of some higher profile brokerages and most equites require only 25% margin maintenance. Same equity on ETRADE or the like is 50% or even 100%.
-
Boris Povolotsky (@Borispov_) reported@hanshaozi @IBKR I’m interested, too. @IBKR Would you at least address this issue publicly and state when do you plan on removing PDT rule??
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR It is truly the worst. A total pos.
-
Jim Baranello (@BaranelloJim) reported@IBKR Hate to say it as an IBKR user but the platform is the absolute worst of any of the major retail brokers for active trading. Clunky and not intuitive. IBKR has great access to virtually all financial products and international markets but wish they would invest more time or energy on the platform itself. Looks like im not the only one who feels this way.
-
Prof.Coin 𝕏 (@Crypto_Educator) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR They grew too fast and their support has always been the weakest link
-
INTER (@Night34Blue) reported@IBKR Hello, I am trying to enable Options Trading Level 2 on my IBKR account in order to trade simple long calls and long puts on SPY. However, my request was rejected with the message saying that my financial profile does not meet the eligibility requirements. I would like to understand specifically what is causing the rejection and what exact requirements I need to update or meet in order to qualify for Options Level 2 trading permissions. Could you please review my account and advise me on the necessary steps to resolve this issue? Thank you.

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.

Vacuum Cleaner (@agivacuum) reported@blondesnmoney as @IBKR number 1 influencer can you plz suggest they fix their web app while you're at it..
-
Otunba ₿ (@OgbeiEdward) reported@IBKR @IBKR I deposited funds during an account application that was subsequently declined. I have raised a support ticket, sent emails, and sent DMs. Over a week later, no response and no refund. I expect a regulated institution to do better than this. Please resolve this urgently.
-
Ramy Gerges (@ramyggerges) reported@IBKR has great features but customer support is abysmal!
-
MillenniumKnight Inc (@MKINC) reported@IBKR Your status page is showing no issues, but for the last 2 hours I haven't been able to access my paper trading account. "NAV Calculation currently unavailable". What's up?
-
EZziKAKa (@5iU) reported@IBKR ARE U STUPID OR SOMETHING?GET RID OF PDT 25k requirements now! @IBKR
-
Zhu Su (Positive Doom Baller) (@ivrespecter) reported@vijucat @IBKR Absolute garbage platform. (Service too.) I've given up. Use all 3rd party tools. Data, metrics, reporting. Even the API is meh. @IBKR is a awful. Actively looking for alternatives. I simply cannot believe their stock price. If investors knew how ****** they are...my god.
