    @one_foothurdle @IBKR Happened to me too. Multiple orders got canceled. They said it was a technical issue on their end. But it it rather alarming, given that their support is hardly reachable. When situations like this happen, you need support more easily available to deal with it.

    @SixSigmaCapital @IBKR It works well for me, sometimes has some bugs, kinda annoying but the others are worst

    @joemccann @IBKR @ibkr has a horrible user-interface, i decided to stop using it and pay premium extra cost elsewhere where user interface is much more friendly. call me stupid but I have seen zero improvement by ibkr in the last 7 years - they do not even try

    @IBKR Not able to find any customer care contact number for Qatar, number of on website not working, Chat support is **** show with autobots...there is no way for communication with #ibkr how we should trust you if we can't communicate with you?

    @IBKR How do I get a human tech support person on the line? I specifically wanted help with an issue because the iBot information is not helping at all, but all I get from support is more copy paste AI answers and they keep closing my ticket without even reading my question.

    @CharlesSchwab @IBKR I have gone through your standard support channels before, and the result is always a deflection of accountability back onto my local hardware. The issue is not my machine's optimization; it is the fundamental architectural bottleneck of your legacy Java-based platform.

    @IBKR If I chose a timeframe on the chart, 1 month, 1 year, 5 years, I should see the percentage of progression during this period. Your stays fix on the daily percentage. It’s not a bug but your choice grok said

    @SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I had issues with delays aswell. Took about a week for funds to arrive

    @STACKDOE @IBKR When did you last use it and what's your specific issue? It's way better than e.g. Revolut. My only issue is it can be slow at times, especially with updating totals but is quite flexible. Alerts need work for sure.

  • CharlesSchwab
    Charles Schwab Corp (@CharlesSchwab) reported

    @arnoblits @IBKR We noticed your post. We have not had any reports of system issues with our platforms. If you have any placed trades that you would like to go over, our Trade Team can be reached via TOS chat or by calling 1-800-435-9050.

    @IBKR's customer support in india is literally non existent. nobody is willing to help and resolve my queries. Kindly help enable permission for trading and override the cooling period. Also there is no acknowledgement or confirmation of money transfer as well

    @IBKR there is no way you are the #1 rated trading platform. When a client with $1 mm in liquid cash & 20+ years trading experience, and a credit rating of 800+ does not have approval to buy $IBIT you have a problem.

    I can’t close any of my futures positions at interactive Brokers.. anyone else having this issue?? Bad timing for IBKR to be broken in this crazy market! @IBKR

    @aleabitoreddit @labubu_trader @IBKR I totally concur that #IBKR UI is trash, also the response time for navigating and waiting for things to load is just intolerable. Please upgrade the infra and spend some money to fix!

    If you're tired of spam calls and you don't want to pay for a streaming music service, just call @IBKR and sit on hold. You can stay connected for a long time before they answer and you won't receive any spam calls. win/win.

    @IBKR Very Bad service no responce 😡

    biotech_moo$e (@biotech_moose) reported

    @DrakeMEMENah @nakedjockman @IBKR I don't believe retails only own 58.99% of the float, it's inferred from self-reported tute data. Brokers never report retail $AMC holdings which allows ongoing fraud. IBKR Robinhood & other platforms continue to loan retail shares (that's part of the problem).

    @one_foothurdle @IBKR That’s comforting. Thank you. I was not able to place the trades again when cancellation happened. Support was not reachable. Later I got email saying it was a technical issue on their end.

    I own six figures $SIVE on @IBKR and opened a new position on @Trading212 this week From swelling my account + high figures to down high five figures I have high conviction in $SIVE and this 20% drop this week, can not change any thing Last time it stayed in 30s it jumped to 60

    @senzu_capital @JosephW31117119 @IBKR Same issue, fixed it by going into settings->trading permissions ->edit and then switch permission on for something that wasn't previously selected. Solved it for me right away.

    @IBKR Unresolvable problem: blue "log in" button won't work for error "You are logged in without Trading/Market Data permissions You are not connected to the brokerage system (You may be logged in on another platform). The displayed portfolio and market data are delayed."

    @Prometheus2025 @IBKR I don’t, but if I were a ****** capitalist I would own physical goods such as property, precious metal, guns, non taxable physical coin collection. Paper is coming to an end and US Tbonds are going down to CIPS and destruction of the petrodollar.
