joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR Opening a ticket in your susten is actually quite difficult because you have to navigate a mine field of AI generated answers and faq. Your support staff is terrible. Last time I opened a ticket it took a week to get a response.

Jinuuku (@Jinuuku121844) reported@IBKR My application U24947179 has been stuck since March 25. Promised same-day resolution, got nothing. Now I'm 403'd from Live Chat so I can't even reach support. No ETA, no update. What's going on?

joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR My bid & ask spreads disappeared. I had to restart TWS to get them back. Then i was getting messages that I was under pdt and i wasn't alliwoded to trade. I am not uber pdt. Not even close to it. I shut down TWS & restarted. That resolved the issue.

Alex 👹 (@Alex_Steger_) reported@super509219312 @IBKR This is obviously a different level of concern and seems to show that they're not being careful about their updates.
