-
Vj (@VJ_303) reported@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?
-
Mr Sinatra (@MrSinatra_MDW) reported@grok @IBKR Still no Grok access!!! wtf?!?!
-
🅰️LB🅰️ 📈📉 (@ALBACapMgmt) reportedThere are hundreds of incredibly annoxing things about @IBKR TWS but the worst is that you always have to add implied vols to option chains and watchlists because they dont save. Anyone found a way round this ? 🙏
-
abxx (@abdullah_717) reported@IBKR why it’s impossible to get help from IBkr It tries to keep taking me to The FAQ questions Brother if I really wanted that I would used some AI to know
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@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.
-
Ethan Hartwell (@EthanTrades13) reportedI recently opened an IBKR Darwin account @IBKR @Darwinexchange - i was told the process would take 1 day I got my approval and tried to access the services but hit with “ineligible” to add funds. Darwin have told me it’s in IBKR’s hands and they cannot help me. It’s been 10 days now and nobody can help me. Pretty shocking experience so far
-
Michael Blau (@blauyourmind) reportedEverybody is talking about the @RobinhoodApp MCP, but almost nobody is talking about @IBKR launching something similar. Interesting choice, though: @IBKR went with a ChatGPT app instead of an MCP server, so I can't actually use it in codex. Only in ChatGPT.
-
chris24.eth 🟦 (@chris24eth) reported@IBKR The last broker to remove PDT restrictions. This number will go down
-
Capital Helmut 69 (@FranklinBobMor1) reported@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.
-
KY (@fixurcough) reported@jzrdan @IBKR Funny cuz I haven’t heard **** about ****
-
𝗠𝗲𝗲𝗽™ (@Meeptimelive) reported@TheFrumInvestor @IBKR Llc with liquidity problems nothing to be ashamed of. What factor rate are you looking for?
-
Mr Sinatra (@MrSinatra_MDW) reported@grok @IBKR This feels like vaporware. wtf?
-
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.
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR I find myself having to shut down and restart Traders Workstation twice a day. It is slow and a pain in the ***. I truly have had a terrible experience at IB. Good luck trying to talk to an actual person to get any type of support.
-
BorrisBOMBA (@thecracker_23) reported@IBKR Hi @IBKR why is it so difficult to reach out to your customer support?
-
Marco (@marcoaam95) reported@IBKR It's been 2 months I requested a modification of my name and other data in the platform and didn't receive any response. That's not serious, how do you expect me to transfer a large amount of funds if customer support is inexistent?
-
kevin (@kevin03698324) reported@IBKR Don’t open account in IBKR 12 days not even opened the account Customer service is so bad Not experienced person working No reply from them
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR I would really appreciate if every response did not say the same thing. Then I would know I am actually talking to a person and not a computer-generated response. That just shows how little you truly care about customer service and why you are in my opinion the worst
-
Urban Miner (@JakeUrban82) reported@ChizaramNelo Yeah support is subpar @IBKR They will help but not the level of WealthSimple.
-
Sr Investidor (@SrInvestidor) reported@IBKR Unfortunately support is not being very helpful, their response is always that there is no ECD and no mitigation and that they are waiting for “the developers response”, we are close to a month wait now, I was hoping you could shake things up a little bit
-
Niall B🅰️rry 🇺🇦 (@BarryNiall) reported$ASTS shorts are not going away! Shares available on @IBKR was 2m an hour or so ago, now down to 1.28m! News of next launch needed to restore credibility and to 🔥 the Shorts!
-
The EV Hunter (@LastGambler_777) reported@IBKR I do not recommend IB, terrible costumer service. Just look how they answer people on the comment section here. I have a position for several years due to a short on a company that did a merger that they never close and refuse to allow a cashout.
-
Mr Sinatra (@MrSinatra_MDW) reported@grok @IBKR Truthifi has very limited hardcaps and other problems and doesn’t do much.
-
Samuel (@sam_smms) reportedHello @IBKR Can you explain what caused that issue? That problem is still where I made a deposit usdc today, but the amount is hold for a day
-
Kastriot (@kastriooot8) reported@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!
-
ToXic God (@ToXicGod321) reported@rafikaliturki @IBKR What ******** does that have to do with this post you stupid donkey?
-
Supernova (@supernovagab) reported@berniethebutler @citrini @IBKR is the only solution in europe
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR Also your support is terrible. It is absolutely useless. Which is why I come here to complain.
-
Bobby Plewniak (@BoBbyPleWniaK) reported@jzrdan @IBKR It’s being used as a marketing tool. Fidelity dropping down to 2,000 minimum was done on purpose
-
Orange is Hope (@orangeishope) reported@IBKR after updating your app. I lost all my account with my $MSTR shares in it. HELP. PLEASE.
