    @IBKR Sorry for bringing the average down.

  • D_M_Ventures
    DMVentures (@D_M_Ventures) reported

    @SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I never had a problem with mine. It is a segregated account, so you can only wire to your own account. If you don’t include your username it takes longer to show on the platform tho

    @IBKR serioulsy why do you signicantly changed the customer report settings?

  • Forward_Capital
    Forward Capital (UK) Limited (@Forward_Capital) reported

    There have been issues connecting to @IBKR using @tradingview for over a week and no confirmed date for resolving the issue. Can you confirm what is going on?

    @STACKDOE @IBKR When did you last use it and what's your specific issue? It's way better than e.g. Revolut. My only issue is it can be slow at times, especially with updating totals but is quite flexible. Alerts need work for sure.

    @IBKR Thx for your reply, but this was a week ago. 😬 This was a first technical issue in a long time, so no hard feeling, but would have liked a much swifter response in the app,this took several hours and that is just too long.

  • gpranesh
    Pranesh Ganesh (@gpranesh) reported

    @IBKR I have trouble logging in as no SMS is being received. Is there an ongoing outage?

  • rellim_evad
    Dave 🇨🇦🎧⚛️ ☸️🇬🇧 (@rellim_evad) reported

    @bclund @IBKR Agreed! They seemed to have changed to an AI customer service system, which seems to struggle with the most basic questions.

    @IBKR You found this out, I'm not in trouble

  • ThinkFinance999
    Paulo Santos (@ThinkFinance999) reported

    @the_white_tig3r @IBKR Typically, no. You might exceeding the number of KRW you need to buy, and if you're in Europe, new stupid regulation (for which Europe is famous) won't let you buy even 1 KRW in excess if you have any margin anywhere. Reduce how many KRW you're buying and try again.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Been waiting a whole month for your Transfer team to reach out to my current broker so they can transfer all of my positions to IBKR. How is this normal? The most rubbish customer service I have ever seen. If you dont help me asap I’m going to cancel my transfer request.

  • Jinuuku121844
    Jinuuku (@Jinuuku121844) reported

    @IBKR To clarify: the application has been stuck since March 23 due to a known wizard bug on IBKR's end. March 25 was when Live Chat confirmed the issue and promised same-day resolution, which never happened.

    @stoneymonster @TradingThomas3 Cause IBKR is ****. They know their data is wrong (for the past 15+ years), and they don't give a damn. @IBKR

  • HandsDiamo96856
    Diamond Hands (@HandsDiamo96856) reported

    @IBKR there is no way you are the #1 rated trading platform. When a client with $1 mm in liquid cash & 20+ years trading experience, and a credit rating of 800+ does not have approval to buy $IBIT you have a problem.

  • ethics3606
    Ethics (@ethics3606) reported

    I have 500 bucks left in my @IBKR account that I can't be arsed to remove, and yet I can't even buy anything with it due to their rediculus minimum buy constraints. Worst ******* tradfi platform on the planet. The UX needs a complete rewrite.

    @aleabitoreddit @labubu_trader @IBKR I totally concur that #IBKR UI is trash, also the response time for navigating and waiting for things to load is just intolerable. Please upgrade the infra and spend some money to fix!

  • alanxyz129
    alanxyz (@alanxyz129) reported

    Interactive Brokers seems to have lost my deposit. They already had my bank details and names but the customer services insist on asking me to provide proof of transfer again, otherwise they won't look into it. Is it strange? @IBKR @IBKR_Europe

  • prathap_moola
    prathap chandra (@prathap_moola) reported

    @IBKR's customer support in india is literally non existent. nobody is willing to help and resolve my queries. Kindly help enable permission for trading and override the cooling period. Also there is no acknowledgement or confirmation of money transfer as well

  • IlhadoSteve
    Steve (@IlhadoSteve) reported

    @IBKR you have terrible cutomer service. If someone is denied a product and can't reapply for 30 days then how and when exactly are people supposed to get a chance to submit additional information for consideration? Your reps on the phone are so frustratingly stupid.

  • adi_baradwaj

    @joemccann @IBKR IBKR has surprisingly good API support for a boomer product

  • FortieJami77198
    Jamie Fortie (@FortieJami77198) reported

    @IBKR hey yo, settled DRS transfer not received after 10 business days, ticket system unresponsive. Phone call got hung up, all tickets are AI, no customer service. Like WTF, guys stay a mile from this broker if you can

  • The_Astronaut18
    The_Astronaut (@The_Astronaut18) reported

    I want to like Interactive Brokers, I really do. Excellent rates on cash/margin. Theoretically, they should be a top broker, but they need to purge and replace their engineering department. Login issues today, poor site performance most other days. You had one job. @IBKR

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon I’m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me

  • KuroKatball
    Kuro Katball 🐈‍⬛ (@KuroKatball) reported

    @IBKR How do I get a human tech support person on the line? I specifically wanted help with an issue because the iBot information is not helping at all, but all I get from support is more copy paste AI answers and they keep closing my ticket without even reading my question.
