    @kyingda @IBKR I was about to withdraw $3464.85 in cash to transfer to my bank, and after waiting a month, they suddenly invented an issue to keep my money for a while. This is a scam.U25159972

    @IBKR the worst investment platform I’ve ever dealt with! Random rules that forcibly convert currencies, AI shoved down my throat even when I clearly said it was not helping and I needed someone to look into my issue! So yeah, taking my business somewhere else.

    @AshknKW @IBKR I'm having the same problem - suddenly can't log in.

    @CoreyCicero @TT_stocks_ @IBKR No it isn’t- I tried that. It’s free IF you only trade market hours- anything PM OR AH is 1% fees. Not to mention when I went to pull my money out they made me send my ID AND a video of me holding up my passport saying who I was lmao. Again worst broker I’ve ever had and I’ve had every single one

    @IBKR It’s been half an hour and the system is STILL down! Everyone on X/social media is furious right now. Users are taking huge losses because of your outage—how are you going to compensate us for this? Fix this NOW! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

    froyomofo (@froyomofo1) reported

    @IBKR I put a ticket in FOUR DAYS AGO and still nothing back. Why ******** should I keep using a platform where I can’t get an answer to a question in a reasonable amount of time?!

  • nathan96911
    Nate (@nathan96911) reported

    @IBKR I have spent the week trying to get thru to a person to talk to about my account. Your automated phone service hangs up when you select speak to agent. It tells you to log in but it does not log in. And tells you contact customer service for login assistance.

    @_charles289 @IBKR no problems.

    $GOOGL down though right now I wanna short @IBKR considering the crappy service & app

  • Alohayall_
    William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported

    @IBKR The worst ever cause ibkr never care about the needs of users. When everyone is requiring the removal of pdt, ibkr is holding action and deliberately preventing investors to be more flexible.

  • ambusiness

    @IBKR We are? Groceries, energy,unemployment and deficit spending are all up. GDP and world respect are down. How exactly are we "back"?

  • OptionsWolf77
    WhiskeyAndIce (@OptionsWolf77) reported

    @Sanji_vals @IBKR You can use the second 2Auth with an authenticator app from google or microsoft. Just make sure to connect them with cloud. If you loose your phone, download the app on the new one and login wirh authenticator app. Its really annoying to contact support, which is so difficult.

    @StateInterOffic @IBKR It's totally unacceptable. Hopefully the issue will be resolved soon.

  • FactPulse93508
    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.

    @mm_options @IBKR Server-side outage, not your fault. Did you check the IBKR status page or try a different device?

    @IBKR Absolutely worst customer service experience of any company I have ever worked with by far. I hate you guys.

    @IBKR A new week begins. When would you stupid team cancel pdt rules?

    @cashflow_king94 @Trading212 @IBKR Only issue with IKBR is they won't accept partial ISA trsnsfers in. Has to be the full portfolio for any given year.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Your software is such a pos. It is not sending the notification to my phone for me to login. I cannot access my account. I tried logging in with the QR code and it shows page not found. I need access to my account. You are just the software in the market. Total garbage
