Interactive Brokers Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
FactPulse (@FactPulse93508) reported@IBKR Worst broker for trading small caps on the planet. They will lock you from exiting your position whenever they feel like it and you will lose 5-10x more before the cap is lifted.
-
🅰️LB🅰️ (@ALBACapMgmt) reported@blahajcapital @IBKR Im guessing they dont have enough onshore margin posted to cover their clients positions...there are no exchange problems....its bullshit
-
Lex◇Investor (@Inves2grow) reported@_charles289 @IBKR no problems.
-
Murray Finlayson (@MtnMuzz) reported@IBKR what is wrong with your website? I set up my account for withdrawals and have sufficient funds. So WHY does the confirmation keep throwing an error? And why is there NOBODY to speak to?
-
Baron Von Garray (@BaronVonGarray) reported@IBKR placing surveys within the trading application that interfere, even for 5 seconds, with my ability to conduct business, is a sure fire way to royally piss off a customer. These surveys are out of control.
-
Nate (@nathan96911) reported@IBKR I have not been able to contact a living person at customer support all week. Your phone system tells you to go to the website. No customer support.
-
William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Change your God damn pdt rules. What makes you so slow in such a simple action!!! ？？？ A bunch of stupid IT do you really need so long?

Brad Kibel (@KibelBrad) reported@IBKR Sell the stupid ****

Yousif Ashknani (@AshknKW) reported@yao_yao520 @IBKR Very stupid having maintenance at this time. Maybe trying to screw ppl idk anything in 2026 is possible.
-
Ramy Gerges (@ramyggerges) reported@IBKR customer support is abysmal.
-
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.

Martijn (@Martijn251000) reported@IBKR Interactive Broker Internatioal Netherland Terror enters Righs Allmight Creat Twistpoints Falltrapps Evil Broken Rules outig Kindness Evil Repayment
-
Shraey (@iamshraey_) reported@IBKR I did that and out of frustration I have written here as they are asking to use my passport when passport is not in one of the options offered for Australia clearly documented in the ticket and screenshot I submitted. They only offer Australian drivers license and then on submission call id type invalid. The tech team on a call just mentions to try again rather than solving the issue and a musical chair game is going on between support and tech folks.

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

Ekapob⚔️ (@ekapob) reported@StateInterOffic @IBKR It's totally unacceptable. Hopefully the issue will be resolved soon.
-
Jesus (@CCrypto1001) reported@SquawkStreet @IBKR It's impossible to contact IBXR support: 1(877)442-2757, it doesn't work. I can only hope that the issue they fabricated to keep my $3464.85 cash will be returned to me someday. U25159972
-
Leticia Ft (@letilibertad) reported@IBKR Sorry for my question but I'm out of the loop on BTS and Jikook news because I've had a terrible headache. Are Rm, Jin and Suga in Paris? I only saw V, Hope and Jk stuff in Paris.
-
Biswayan Bhandari (@BiswayanBhanda1) reported@IBKR I can't open my IBKR account. It’s been inactive for 6 months and I've been trying to reopen it for the last 2 months. Why is the interface not user-friendly? I've also been contacting customer support for a month, but their responses aren't helpful...
-
FactPulse (@FactPulse93508) reported@IBKR Literally the worst broker imaginable. They block tickers now, they price cap anything remotely volatile, even large caps so you're stuck in a bad trade or can't enter a good one. This broker is anti-success. High fees and trading interference. Run from this broker.
-
Jesus (@CCrypto1001) reported@kyingda @IBKR I was about to withdraw $3464.85 in cash to transfer to my bank, and after waiting a month, they suddenly invented an issue to keep my money for a while. This is a scam.U25159972

Ryan (@nycguy1988) reported@IBKR And HORRIFIC SLIPPAGE that crushes P&L, with slow customer service in submitting trade busts to CBOE that costs clients money. I'm mad at you.

NaN (@iama_nan) reportedWhy is @IBKR down ? Can’t login!!!
-
William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported@IBKR The worst ever cause ibkr never care about the needs of users. When everyone is requiring the removal of pdt, ibkr is holding action and deliberately preventing investors to be more flexible.
-
Andrea (@Andrea79983493) reported@IBKR October 2025 to 17th June 2026..... is within your service timeframe of 1-3 business days. How long is a business day in the galaxy you are writing from?!
