    @IBKR I am writing to complain about persistent issues on your website: login is unreliable across multiple access points, and my saved settings (portfolio, watchlist) are regularly lost, forcing me to reconfigure them constantly.

    @IBKR during the registration you can pick a password that is longer than 40 characters. that breaks the login in the mobile app (probably truncated client-side) until you change your password to one that is less than 40 characters. please forward to your portal engineering team or whoever that can investigate

    @financewithjoe @IBKR Possibly on low value the Fx fees being higher Vs trade cost might not be so much of an issue.

    @IBKR @IBKR do you ever solve issues. Your customer service is -100 out of 10. You haven't been able to solve a critical problem for over 20 days now. Ticket #T877121. Are they sleeping on their beds. The issue has been escalated 4-5 times already. DO YOUR JOB!

    @IBKR you want to margin call me without notifying me? On a recorded call you said you sent me a notification. I’m telling you I didn’t get one. Had I gotten one, I would have put more liquid in my account! **** you! I can’t win. Everyone wants my money! **** you

    @IBKR placing surveys within the trading application that interfere, even for 5 seconds, with my ability to conduct business, is a sure fire way to royally piss off a customer. These surveys are out of control.

    @Therichardralph @IBKR The FX fees are higher than T212 and the interest paid on cash is less but it works well. I pay £5.99 per month to bring the FX fees down a bit.

    @IBKR "‘Not urgency" must be your customer service mantra. It takes months just to handle a simple complaint.
