@AllVentured @IBKR Ow, I don't think etrade is available for european users though...I guess I'll have to stick with IB but man, I'd be willing to pay some $ every month just to have a decent customer support

@IBKR Been on hold for 51 minutes and counting... your service sucks. Thanks for the reminder why you are not my main broker. I don't know why any of your customers put up with this.

@IBKR document download for hedge funds from hedge fund marketplace downloads corrupt files. They are only 3 bytes and won't open. Tried Safari and Chrome on Mac. I'm talking about pdfs available under additional docs under individual fund. please fix.

@Paolo_trades @1charts6 @IBKR IBKR allows retail to access institutional level execution and margin rates, some really useful stuff like realtime SI data, decent customer service but the software is unbearable. If they invest some upfront money and make it better they can retain lots of customers.

@IBKR worst service of all brokerage firms! transferred two securities to IBKR over two weeks ago, and until now no one seems to know where they are... even after several inquiries and hours (!!) on the phone, total incompetence #FINRA

@IBKR I called so many times to your customer service. But nobody takes. Let me access my money please!

@StonkTonk @IBKR A bit cliche but Etrade. I get a live body on chat or the phone instantly. The person on the other end is always more knowledgeable than I would expect. Other than a history of criminally bad fills on market orders, the pricing is actually pretty good.

@IBKR Can some chief at IB please ask IB Ireland to sort out their issues with signing the required documents for Irish Pension Trustee companies. There is lots of €€€ sitting in cash in Irish pension accounts just waiting to go into an IB Ireland pension trading account !!!

Do not recommend @IBKR in the least - A company that forces a customer to wait close to two hours on hold just to get access to their own money. We have money to invest because we would never let our customers experience such terrible lack of service.

@IBKR literally worst brokerage, stop recommending these fools to people. They do nothing to help customers just send emails to”supporting team” that never gets back to you... officially closing my account after a week these guys are literally worst than robinhood @WSJ

@IBKR @MoonManStonk Terrible customer service. 1.5 hr and counting. Still on hold. And more like wont resolve my issue once someone pickup my call. Since these reps cannot do anything than take a message and create a ticket.

@IBKR You guys need to work on your customer care It’s really in bad shape, multiple hours of waiting on phone line , still no luck, chat experience is so glitchy and most of the time you will get one word answer for complex questions , no reply to secure messaging for weeks. Really?

@IBKR please answer the phone. 2 hour wait time each time customer service is needed. Unacceptable! Also please respond to tickets sent. No response after a week a ticket was submitted. Seriously! What's going on over there?

@DoronGreenberg @IBKR Yup I agree. Worst customer service there is. I spend 2 hours waiting on que to speak to a rep. I couldn't believe it! This is beyond below expectation. It's negligence.
