    1/ Samsung Securities just became the first korean broker to launch an online omnibus account service if you have an @IBKR account, you can now buy korean stocks without opening a korean account

    @IBKR The last broker to remove PDT restrictions. This number will go down

    @IBKR Your charts are freezing and I am in the middle of a trade. Your software is truly the worst around. Absolute garbage. Anyone not using IB that wants to consider it should runaway. Terrible custmer service and software that acts and feels like it is from the early ninties.

    @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?

    Hey @IBKR ! Why is it that your stock newsfeed in the individual tickers is so bad? It shows completely irrelevant information 95% of the time. And if it's relevant judging from the headline it doesnt work half the time when you click on it. This is really annoying.

    @belfort0609 @buyerofponzi @IBKR I'm hearing this is an increasing problem. You will be better off elsewhere .. IBKR went from a top tier broker to a bottom tier real fast as far as I'm concerned.

    @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 !

  • FactPulse93508
    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.

    @cobie @buyerofponzi @IBKR bro just made tens of millions of $$$ to become a customer service rep goated

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

    @IBKR Be careful of stop orders duplication problems. -5% in my chase never refunded.

    @TheFlowHorse can i ask why when i trade on @IBKR i tried after hours etc and even if there is trade on nasdaq route at that bid price my bid orders is not execute even with 1% lower price or is like lagging sometimes to like that while hyperliquid/binance perps dont have this issue

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

  • belfort0609
    Violet (@belfort0609) reported

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR I told them to go **** themselves in the email closing my account. Never going back. Their building janitor can run their ops desk better than every keyboard monkey on there combined.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon What is going on with your Client Portal?? It has gotten so completely unusable you actually look like a scam site now. I know you're not but if I was considering onboarding right now I wouldn't dare put real money on. Like, it's truly terrible.

    @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 amazing trade terminal and fundamentals explorer! loving IB TWS, but if you lose you phone, the only way to restore your access to your account is to call them via phone and verify. no other options. customer support chat is only available for someone who logged in but you can't do that if your phone is stolen. they could have verified clients via google meet or Skype, but no, you have to call directly.

    @IBKR Go **** yourselves.

  • FranklinBobMor1

    @coinbase is such a piece of garbage, this happens on a regular basis, especially when you try to send crypto elsewhere. Can you imagine @IBKR or @Fidelity ever being down even once? Even if they were, they have customer service numbers you can call, unlike Clownbase. F these guys.

  • NBee007

    I 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

  • Yogithebearish
    joe (@Yogithebearish) reported

    @IBKR Just fix your ****** platform and stop trying to blame my network. This is 2026. When I log into TWS I feel like I am using an Atari. Get update to date.

  • VJ_303

    @IBKR Still you are looking HELPLESS in providing me direct contact number where I can call and clarify. That's why I am afraid to open account with #bkr as where I will contact after opening account if something big issues or fraud happened, ...my hard earned money go stucked???

  • NBee007
    Ten Beers (@NBee007) reported

    @IBKR Yeah I checked and I’m connected to the internet…… Your quick support page doesn’t have anything related to blank screen after submitting application.

    John Martin (@jminvesting) reported

    I really want to use @IBKR and twice now I've tried to fund and set up an account. Their insistence on you having your phone nearby to check their mobile app for some code every 10 minutes has caused me to give up each time. Awful experience and poor security design.

    @SpaceX ****, only open to US residents in @IBKR

    @IBKR $10.25 Commission for 10 call options. $10 per 1000 shares of ETF's WTF?

    @MartyZimme90457 @IBKR @chinoalemano That's normal, because all the apps are showing the old numbers. The future is defined by stocks like $DGXX. I have no idea who this person is. But I can hardly imagine anyone being stupid enough to short this stock. Good luck to 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
