  • EnginerdJeff jstippey (@EnginerdJeff) reported

    Anybody that even thinks of using @IBKR . I highly recommend they try calling in or using the chat feature on their website. Literally the worst customer service ever.

  • M1O2M1O2M1O2 Maher El Obeid (@M1O2M1O2M1O2) reported

    @IBKR your SMS authentication message system is not working...

  • midodid82705498 midodido (@midodid82705498) reported

    @M1O2M1O2M1O2 @IBKR Is there an issue with the messaging service, I did not receive the security code, and I wasn't able to log into my live account since yesterday. This is ridiculous!

  • ItsJustRyan4 ItsJustRyan (@ItsJustRyan4) reported

    @IBKR why is it impossible to get in touch with your support?

  • FJFuryy Knowledge; Patience (@FJFuryy) reported

  • Vexla1 Vexla (@Vexla1) reported

    @IBKR is down again. Probably for maintenance, but no notice?!?

  • TheBostonView The Boston View (@TheBostonView) reported

    20 years after the onset of online trading, and the internet more broadly, we still see many days in which @Vanguard_Group goes down; the design interfaces at @IBKR look like something from 1976; and @Fidelity can't even load listed tickers so that you can trade. Incredible.

  • saedalshatri Sa'ed Al-Shatri (@saedalshatri) reported

    @IBKR Another problem today?what's wrong with your service !!!

  • Anirban__Dutt Anirban Dutta (@Anirban__Dutt) reported

    @IBKR I can't open TWS . My account no U4701976 . Please solve my issue . Even I couldn't deposit fund .

  • TheBostonView The Boston View (@TheBostonView) reported

    First got on @IBKR nearly 15 years ago. I can say without question the usability of TWS has steadily declined. Huge spray of hurdles/messages just to place a trade; bewildering options that literally don't work. Needed an hour of tech support *just to get text alert of a trade.*

  • JoeMara18 Joe Mara (@JoeMara18) reported

    Despite wining $10K in the @IBKR virtual sports betting competition, I can't claim my prize or open a brokerage account even after 2 months of phone tag with technical support due to a software bug in your application process...Had fun but sad ending

  • David37655174 David (@David37655174) reported

    @IBKR ever answering messages? Stuck in hotline for 2 hrs, my message on the platform is 2 weeks old WHAT ******** IS GOING ON?

  • Galbus96 Galbus (@Galbus96) reported

    @IBKR fix your **** I still cant sign in it has been a week now.

  • EnginerdJeff jstippey (@EnginerdJeff) reported

    @sanglucci Since @IBKR was trying to keep you so bad, did they give you some sort of VIP number or anything. I'm trying to report a critical flaw in their trading software for separate managed accounts and I can't even get in touch with anyone. Man these guys are terrible now

  • ActiontraderSeb ActionTraderSeby (@ActiontraderSeb) reported

    @fturriaf @IBKR Almost EVERY other week my colleagues who (unbeknownst to me) trade using TOS thru TD Ameritrade- and suffer greatly due to the issues that occur- ESPECIALLY at critical times like the open. In my time with IB I have had 2 incidents with this being 1 of them.

  • dannyfoxpal Goo (@dannyfoxpal) reported

    Heck. @IBKR needs to fix its stuff.

  • _mumbling_me The Portfolio Trader (@_mumbling_me) reported

    @jameswhelan42 @Telstra @IBKR If it's a mobile service, don't they have a "view your call logs and charges" option when you login to your account online? I am with a small provider #telechoice they have that option on the online account.

  • JackTinker1 Jack Tinker (@JackTinker1) reported

    @IBKR I don’t know who ‘chooser broker’ is but your platform is terrible for day trading IMO. Very hard to navigate and overpriced commissions for low priced stocks because you charge per share

  • MustafaDumyatti Mustafa Dumyatti (@MustafaDumyatti) reported

    @IBKR Do you have an outage today? I can't log in... same problem can't receive the SMS...

  • M1O2M1O2M1O2 Maher El Obeid (@M1O2M1O2M1O2) reported

  • PhilippSalas Phil Salas (@PhilippSalas) reported

    @IBKR Did you already forget the system outage last Monday?

  • midodid82705498 midodido (@midodid82705498) reported

    @IBKR You guys need to establish a customer service department. And more importantly, I.T. people. Thanks

  • MustafaDumyatti Mustafa Dumyatti (@MustafaDumyatti) reported

    @midodid82705498 @M1O2M1O2M1O2 @IBKR 45mins on the line no answer so far. Same issue since Friday... Still can't receive the security code...

  • BenkielJ pj (@BenkielJ) reported

    @IBKR the worst OTC market broker I have ever traded with. Why am I not able to buy stocks after selling other stocks. I have cash but my purchasing power is at 0 ? every move is always a big deal with you It's grieving and you do nothing for your customers !

  • NoellAurelius Aurelius Noell (@NoellAurelius) reported

    @IBKR waiting times and quality of call center unacceptable. What effective channel do you offer to solve problems for customers??
