@Yrch_the_trader @IBKR The worst customer service too! Every single phone call to them is a 55 minute wait to speak with a person. IBKR Clearly doesn’t care about their customers! Not worth the headache with so many other trading platforms. I’ll be leaving them

It’s only when everything breaks that you learn all the problems in your code you never knew existed, nor imagined could occur. Now that all that’s fixed... @IBKR Can we please have another outage?

@IBKR Software is never 100% reliable. What is important is how quickly this was addressed and mitigated. I have been actively using your brokerage for over 4 years, this is the first incident. You deserve a pass. Well done and that m you!

@IBKR you guys are terrible. Everyday 30 minutes before market opens you screw up and the app becomes completely unresponsive. Completely unacceptable. I hope someone sues you and make you lose alot of money.

@NassarSyed @IBKR Everyone freaking out over one trading morning. Or getting stuck in trades even though they knew there was a problem. Speaks volumes to people having weak risk management.
