  Forward Unemployed Engineer (@waltuuuhr) reported 4 minutes ago

  @stan100x @IBKR Why do you think a different brokerage will help with this? Anyway try out tastytrade, they have lower fees at least

• 
  The Boston View (@TheBostonView) reported 5 minutes ago

  When you reflect on the very poor customer support offered by @IBKR, the endless software glitches, and the that they don't even bother to produce a well designed app for the iPad--consider this: the company has enormous cash on its balance sheet. It could fix it all anytime.

  James Butler (@jbutlersg) reported 13 minutes ago

  @IBKR you guys have the worst most painful sign up process. Even just sent an email to support and even that came up showing an error. Why is it so difficult?

• 
  Vj (@VJ_303) reported 13 minutes ago

  @IBKR And what about the removal of PDT rules ? All brokers are removing it tomorrow. You are the worst broker ever, I am closing my account

  @ThinkFinance999 @the_white_tig3r @IBKR Similar problem in the US, not just Europe. Must be SK's rules for foreigners holding KRW in brokerage accounts. LLM explained one solution to me.

  @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Change your God damn pdt rules. What makes you so slow in such a simple action!!! ？？？ A bunch of stupid IT do you really need so long?

  Otunba ₿ (@OgbeiEdward) reported 22 minutes ago

  @IBKR @IBKR I deposited funds during an account application that was subsequently declined. I have raised a support ticket, sent emails, and sent DMs. Over a week later, no response and no refund. I expect a regulated institution to do better than this. Please resolve this urgently.

  @IBKR Just fix your ****** platform and stop trying to blame my network. This is 2026. When I log into TWS I feel like I am using an Atari. Get update to date.

  The EV Hunter (@LastGambler_777) reported 23 minutes ago

  @IBKR I do not recommend IB, terrible costumer service. Just look how they answer people on the comment section here. I have a position for several years due to a short on a company that did a merger that they never close and refuse to allow a cashout.

  kingran (@KingranYama) reported 25 minutes ago

  The AI customer support agents give you useless canned information. These AI agents do not understand the nuances of the qst, which is okay, but refusing to pass the qst to human agents in not okay. @IBKR I pay you guys serious money in commission. Can I get some help?

  @IBKR what is wrong with your website? I set up my account for withdrawals and have sufficient funds. So WHY does the confirmation keep throwing an error? And why is there NOBODY to speak to?

  @solana @calilyliu Tokenized. Cool. @IBKR has it too - regulated, insured, no seed phrase (to loose). Liquidity on Nasdaq ≈ no problem

  @IBKR Genuinely shittiest trading app I’ve ever experienced Says my application was cancelled, but I tried to register a new account and it says my email is already registered. Can’t see **** after login sometimes, only left with user settings which I can’t even change ****

  joe (@Yogithebearish) reported 55 minutes ago

  @IBKR Your charts are freezing and I am in the middle of a trade. Your software is truly the worst around. Absolute garbage. Anyone not using IB that wants to consider it should runaway. Terrible custmer service and software that acts and feels like it is from the early ninties.

  Davide Morcelli EU (@Davide_Morcelli) reported 56 minutes ago

  @IBKR run one of the best trading platforms in the world and one of the more embarrassing support desks attached to it. Almost 10 days of silence on a routine ISA request, after a cheerful "we'll revert soon." The bar is on the floor.
