Interactive Brokers Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CorpusCol CorpusColossus (@CorpusCol) reported

    @alluvialcapital @IBKR I've had a problem when the company had veto power over transfers (in order to protect tax status allegedly). Needed a letter from the company authorizing it. Took a long time to figure out what the obstacle was.

  • BigBillTwits BigBillTwits (@BigBillTwits) reported

    @alluvialcapital @IBKR Ugh, transfer agents are terrible and IBKR is terrible on non-routine things. Any idea where the hold up is? If you have a sales contact at IBKR they might be able to be helpful working the system at IBKR. If the issue is the transfer agent, company IR can help on that

  • Ahmedyy23927866 Ahmedyy (@Ahmedyy23927866) reported

    @IBKR I have an issue with my account i cant log in because mobil number associated with my account was changed suddenly and i didnt change it please your help

  • LeviStr96 Levi Strauss (@LeviStr96) reported

    @IBKR mobile apps down in Canada

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    Yikes, I cannot get @IBKR TWS to launch *at all*, I can't uninstall it, and I can't install a new copy. The installer/launcher show a flash screen and then the process just ends... I've had this happen with other programs (discord just did it yesterday), forgot how to fix it

  • Julie17546871 Julie (@Julie17546871) reported

    @Sequoia8867T @DavePerrino @IBKR Are you talking about the pizza incident? 10,000 BTC for 2 pizzas

  • tiawdnaeulav tiawdnaeulav (@tiawdnaeulav) reported

    @alluvialcapital @IBKR Also a lot of BDs are doing significant cost cutting with management and not necessarily knowing nor having experience in those nuances. They are gearing operations towards cheaper reps and customer management. I call it managing out their customers.

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Lmao. TWS is a useless crap of a software. Never used anything as bad. Loading and switching charts takes forever. Latest and beta versions freeze the software for 1 minute multiple times a day. This company is a joke, you can’t provide your clients with good trading products.

  • GmeImmortan IMMORTAN-GME (@GmeImmortan) reported

    @IBKR could you please explain how the fee of borrowable $GME shares goes down with less supply? This looks awfully like you are participating in security fraud. @NewYork_SEC @TheJusticeDept

  • FlowAnalyst FlowAnalyst (@FlowAnalyst) reported

    @averygrrl @IBKR Oh I know I know I used to login when I get to my day job, sometime my boss was there and alerts were popping up on my screen, me shitting my pants what if he see those lol

  • alshaigi90 Mohamed.I.Ali ツ (@alshaigi90) reported

    @IBKR very bad #Trader and very bad customer support you need to train you #agent

  • dgetrading It's Dave (@dgetrading) reported

    @IBKR agree with @whitebreadfox Basic charting is not working and still no fix after weeks of garbage. Stop wasting time on useless bells and whistles and sort out basic, core functionality

  • greggfr The Greg Man (@greggfr) reported

    @IBKR Yeah but the service is horrible. System down 30% of the time and you can’t make trades when you need to! Constantly being logged off site and very buggy

  • emreguner Emre Guner (@emreguner) reported

    @IBKR I deleted my application because of a wrong address and wanted to reapply, but now I can't even log in, receiving an error message "Your application was deleted.". This is so impractical, how am I supposed to reapply if you don't even let me log in...

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Daily reminder that TWS is the worst trading platform.

  • xuuund xuuund (@xuuund) reported

    @IBKR I CANT DEPOSIT FUNDS BECAUSE 404 ERROR, ARE YOU ALRIGHT IBKR?

  • riffraff gabriele renzi (@riffraff) reported

    @bbatsov @IBKR HU fiscal thing: you put money/securities in a long term "box" (every year) and if you keep it >5 years you pay 0 capital gains tax. But the broker needs to support it (sync w/ authorities) and IB does not. HU brokers are terrible but end up having a huge fiscal advantage😔

  • Jay64455769 Jaydizzyboy (@Jay64455769) reported

    @IBKR ****** ridiculous!!!!! i can´t login right when i should be trading..you ****** disgrace

  • bencken_rolf Rolf Bencken (@bencken_rolf) reported

    @IBKR Instead of adding useless, low-effort features: Think about, if you want to invest in core business software like updating your main trading screen TWS, which is an embarrasement. And for ****'s sake: Do sth about that abysmal market data quality!

  • Jn6_68 Tony (@Jn6_68) reported

    @alluvialcapital @IBKR I’ve held shares thru company transfer agent, but if I had any issues I called the company, including the ceo, not the ta.

  • DavePerrino Dave Perrino - Boosted and better than ever.🇺🇸 (@DavePerrino) reported

    @Sequoia8867T @IBKR Which is my problem. This entire scam is based on more and more people giving "him" money for this "virtual asset". Then one day "he" decides to cash out. It crashes and everyone's left holding their hand on their butt. It's Ponzi on steroids.

  • GSilverbird Gil Silverbird (@GSilverbird) reported

    @IBKR REVUTO claims to have many subscriptions but I cannot for the life of me find a way to get a subscription on their network. IT IS DEFINITELY A SCAM. DO NOT BUY

  • LacyFowler85 Lacy (@LacyFowler85) reported

    @danifussers @IBKR If all the brokerages use DTC, and DTC is the problem, how is transferring your shares going to help? Seems fishy.

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR TWS sucks. It is THE WORST trading platform available. Charts are loading forever so you can’t trade from that crap. Why add useless stuff? Fix the basics. A user must be able to quickly flip through different tickers.

  • GabrielLoyola20 Elliot-Wave Rider (@GabrielLoyola20) reported

    @IBKR are we having connection problems ???

  • alshaigi90 Mohamed.I.Ali ツ (@alshaigi90) reported

    @IBKR very bad #customer #service experience #IBKR

  • VolQuant Harel Jacobson (@VolQuant) reported

    Say what you want about @TheTerminal , but their helpdesk is the most responsive i've ever encountered... @Refinitiv on the other hand, as bad as @IBKR Waiting for more than 30min to be picked up by a support rep

  • averygrrl Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported

    @FlowAnalyst @IBKR Wild. IBKR API does support tick-level data for up to 3 instruments simultaneously, last I checked. Works in my trading software, at least... But yeah, 3-instrument limit. Rest is second-based.

  • Jay64455769 Jaydizzyboy (@Jay64455769) reported

    @IBKR ONCE AGAIN I CAN´T ****** LOGIN!!! THIS ****** SHITT SITE

  • ThomasBraziel Thomas Braziel (@ThomasBraziel) reported

    @alluvialcapital @cablecarcapital @IBKR You might be pointing out a #investmenthack - invest in all companies with the worst NPS scores - quick someone get the CRSP tapes!
