Hey @IBKR I have been waiting for over 3 weeks for you to correct things on my account. You don't respond to tickets submitted. Your live chat connects and a rep never shows up. You don't answer the phone. How does a customer get help? #CX is clearly not a priority.

@IBKR you really need to improve your customer service and response time.

@IBKR we are trying to close our account with you, you told us it would be closed by yesterday (3rd) but it hasn’t been closed and you are adding charges to our account. We’ve tried your support but there isn’t any answer. Can you reply to this tweet please?

@IGOSODAMNHAM @IBKR @TradeStation Yikes! Yeah $GME was also restricted along with the others on tradestation. Was considering that move but really debatable now with so many brokers having issues and these two especially. Going to have to keep looking

@ToniWehrmann @IBKR I waited more than an hour till somebody finally picked up the phone. They did help me out though. Their customer service sucks big time. Too much outage time too when markets are very volatile. I left them.

@IGOSODAMNHAM @IBKR They probably have the most archaic customer service system I’ve ever seen. Locked me out of my account for entering the correct login details

@IBKR Been trying to login to my account for the past few days through laptop. Didn’t work. Tried calling, no answer. Tried chat, doesn’t work. Not happy with your customer service. Need to login urgently! Interactive brokers, please help.

@IBKR @IBKR , you are holding on my withdrawal request and charging me negative interest, you asked me to contact your customer service but nobody is picking up. The minimum when the request comes from you would be to call me as I requested or have a priority line.

@IBKR I cannot login to my account because the authentication link that gets sent to my phone is always a broken link. I cannot write you an email bc you don’t have an email address I can write. I try to call but there is not even a ring. What the hell? Help a brotha out

@IBKR has become a terrible platform. 9 out of 10 times I log in half of the portfolio data is missing. I can't see anything and most of the time the trading function fails and does not allow me to trade like today once again. Likely going to close out my accounts and move them.

@IBKR I am in the USA. I have 4 tickets open but no one has replied in the last 5 days. I called today and waited in the queue for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Then the call was disconnected. Your chat is not working. My orders are getting rejected because of other sell credit orders. Sad..

@KeithMontana9 @IBKR 2/2 I am extremely happy with them, if you need customer support more than once or twice over the account life time you might consider going with other brokers that offer more support but higher costs and less products.

Open a $CRSR position @ 44.3 with 12.5% of the total equity. Should have opened it yesterday as it gaped up from the MA lines that it has been playing around. I was kind of irrational because of my @IBKR account situation. The worst costumer service experience I have ever had.

@IBKR your customer service is horrific. Extended waits to speak to a person. Arbitrary deactivation of services. Horrific lack of communication with customers.

@KeithMontana9 @IBKR 1/2 IBKR is built for professional traders who don't need hand holding and phone support. The low cost IBKR is able to offer to professionals is because they run a very lean operation with minimal stuff so all savings can be past to customers. Been with then for 5+ years and
