Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • GmeImmortan IMMORTAN-GME (@GmeImmortan) reported

    @IBKR could you please explain how the fee of borrowable $GME shares goes down with less supply? This looks awfully like you are participating in security fraud. @NewYork_SEC @TheJusticeDept

  • L3120L Luke (@L3120L) reported

    Why ******** can I still not buy $icnm on @IBKR

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Daily reminder that TWS is the worst trading platform.

  • riffraff gabriele renzi (@riffraff) reported

    @bbatsov @IBKR HU fiscal thing: you put money/securities in a long term "box" (every year) and if you keep it >5 years you pay 0 capital gains tax. But the broker needs to support it (sync w/ authorities) and IB does not. HU brokers are terrible but end up having a huge fiscal advantage😔

  • GabrielLoyola20 Elliot-Wave Rider (@GabrielLoyola20) reported

    @IBKR are we having connection problems ???

  • kyaninvest 🐍🔋kyæninvést🔋🐍 (@kyaninvest) reported

    @IBKR I can’t load my Trader Workstation (Latest) it keeps crashing - please help!

  • alshaigi90 Mohamed.I.Ali ツ (@alshaigi90) reported

    @IBKR very bad #Trader and very bad customer support you need to train you #agent

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Lmao. TWS is a useless crap of a software. Never used anything as bad. Loading and switching charts takes forever. Latest and beta versions freeze the software for 1 minute multiple times a day. This company is a joke, you can’t provide your clients with good trading products.

    @RonMadison11 @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The maintenance on Robinhood really complicated the last time I went from shares to calls but to be fair it's my own fault for using so much margin by that point

  • RonMadison11 Ron MadisonGooGoo🚀🔥🩳🔥😳👨🏻‍🍼 (@RonMadison11) reported

    FYI $TSLA: @RobinhoodApp upped $TSLA maintenance to 30% from 25% in the USA. The game is wrigged don’t forget. Market makers doubling as hedge funds got crushed this week. Robinhood and @IBKR are their friends and your enemies even as their customers. Free isn’t free.

  • mikekimelman Mike Kimelman 🏴‍☠️⚔️ (@mikekimelman) reported

    @IBKR So it's bad enough you closed a minor custodian account for my son. But now the money that you requested I wire to get the account open you've put a 44 business day hold on?? 44 business days! That's the craziest thing I've ever heard. Please reach out and make this right.

  • GSilverbird Gil Silverbird (@GSilverbird) reported

    @IBKR REVUTO claims to have many subscriptions but I cannot for the life of me find a way to get a subscription on their network. IT IS DEFINITELY A SCAM. DO NOT BUY

  • thoughtspeed7 Raj Chaudhary (@thoughtspeed7) reported

  • Al76294512 Al (@Al76294512) reported

    @IBKR Worst broker and platform ever!

  • DoNotLose TINA (@DoNotLose) reported

    .@IBKR made it too difficult for me to buy stock with cleared funds in my account saying errors like prior day's close balance was in excess of the balance of post purchase--- even thought the funds have cleared, so that's fine, i can withdraw those funds and buy somewhere else..

  • Dan43870799 DanitaVox (@Dan43870799) reported

    @IBKR not very happy with your help desk to be honest. Lots of time on phone as well and not capable to resolve a problem on my account in term of beneficiary, sent you an email and I didnt receive answer at all. NO contact email to write to you and receive solution

  • alshaigi90 Mohamed.I.Ali ツ (@alshaigi90) reported

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @FlowAnalyst @IBKR Wild. IBKR API does support tick-level data for up to 3 instruments simultaneously, last I checked. Works in my trading software, at least... But yeah, 3-instrument limit. Rest is second-based.

  • AmberEFT AmberEFT (@AmberEFT) reported

    @IBKR yep your hold times STILL SUCK! 22min so far for general support.. wow what a joke of a broker...

  • frk0196 Franco (@frk0196) reported
