  • pydi pydi (@pydi) reported

    @IBKR i am not able to login to the account. not receiving SMS or receiving callback. This is the worst site I have ever used (with 2FA enabled). do you have any recommendations for competitors that wont lock customers out from accessing their accounts?

  • ioantodea44 ioan todea (@ioantodea44) reported

    @IBKR The most complicated application I've ever tried. It's designed to annoy the customer, not help them.

  • eftegarie Amin (@eftegarie) reported

    @atc6955 @IBKR I wonder if it’s because I was born in Iran. That’s created issues for me before in banking.

    @avinute @DEGIRO @IBKR Such a shame, they could have become a huge broker in Europe... I won't recommand them from now on, I have been a client for 6 years. I will probably sell my shares aswell if they keep going down this path

  • PHamouni PH (@PHamouni) reported

    @eftegarie @IBKR Yeah the user interface is not the best, i agree it seems intentionally hard to find . I had a problem with creating account early on, with the exact problem of finding the chat button. You should find it in contact us. Google how to find it. Once you go there it gets better :)

  • hhhhhh3177 Tim S. (@hhhhhh3177) reported

    @SachivM99 @IBKR but unstable

  • filmbuff_1 Prasad (@filmbuff_1) reported

    @IBKR Had you call you FIVE times & was put on hold, finally, I hear that ‘no agents are available’ & it gets disconnected. If this is the sort of pathetic service you offer, I guess it’s high time I move on to an alt brokerage.

  • TJ_Macro TJ (@TJ_Macro) reported

    @CryptoSlider @IBKR i cant login this is bullshit

  • AramasWealth Aramas Wealth (@AramasWealth) reported

    @DonnabryantAPE @IBKR All idiots who can't manage to open an account and meet the requirements are screaming sEcOnD aMeNdMeNt, maybe if you are a little smarter to know how to meet their opening requirements before crying it will help.

    cant login to #ibkr in US trading hours, what the hell? @IBKR when will this be fixed, I already missed a great set up!

  • amiraligoa Amir Ali (@amiraligoa) reported

    @IBKR Your customer support is impossible to get in touch with on chat and email, how can I invest with you if I can't contact you!Queries 1) do you have crypto -cardano, usdt, binance coin on your uk platform? 2) if so what are your fees to buy, hold and sell?
