    @lmnprt @IBKR Luckily this is happening at the account opening stage and not when I need to trade. Imagine the chaos!. Also the T&C are so anti-customer that they take no responsibility for system outage. #NeedABetterBroker

    @IBKR Impossible to create an account. After every login I'm logged out with this error: We're sorry, but we had to log you out and end your session. Either a problem occurred on our server or you were automatically logged out due to inactivity.
