-
Rod J Davis 🇺🇸 (@rjd_mkts) reported@IBKR @thomaspeterffy For the life of me I dont know whats going on over at @IBKR but for a trader to not have the ability to do any spreads, iron condors or anything resembling a spread for over 3 months due to technical issues is a MAJOR MAJOR ISSUE!!!!
-
BatCAt (@BatcatCA) reported@IBKR guys, you send out warnings about phishing attacks on IBKR accounts, but then also send out a mail about annual verification *WITH A LINK INCLUDED IN THE MAIL*. Come on. Stop including links in your official mails. Just tell us what to expect when we login. Not hard.

Zhu Su (Positive Doom Baller) (@ivrespecter) reported@joemccann @IBKR It is not clean. It is some of the worst data you can use. Good luck. 🫡
-
Acmesafeco (@acmesafeco) reported@IBKR Warning to anyone considering switching to IBKR will allow you to deposit funds but be aware new accounts will not get approved for trading with no explanation. Here's the best part...you cant even send the funds back to your existing broker so just watch the market while they hold your money. No explanation, no customer support, just tough ****.
-
Ethan Hartwell (@EthanTrades13) reportedI recently opened an IBKR Darwin account @IBKR @Darwinexchange - i was told the process would take 1 day I got my approval and tried to access the services but hit with “ineligible” to add funds. Darwin have told me it’s in IBKR’s hands and they cannot help me. It’s been 10 days now and nobody can help me. Pretty shocking experience so far
-
DMVentures (@D_M_Ventures) reported@SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I never had a problem with mine. It is a segregated account, so you can only wire to your own account. If you don’t include your username it takes longer to show on the platform tho
-
Vj (@VJ_303) reported@IBKR No communication channel work...you can try your self as outsider...you will not able to reach your own customer care..... check and call Qatar contact number on ur website, try chat you will receive nothing???
-

Vikas kumar (@Vikasro50357845) reportedDear Interactive Brokers, I’m an Indian investor facing issues with funding my account. Support is not responding properly. Please help urgently. @IBKR
-
BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported@IBKR I have... they claimed they are waiting on finra regulatory notice but that is incorrect. That notice was issued 4/20/26 showing effective date 6/4/26. Other brokers are moving quick on this and your web ticket reps are uninformed. Many are waiting on this information. Pls help
-
BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported@IBKR Followed up with web ticket several times. Slow response and unable to to say when ibkr will announce info pertaining to pdt rule change. Disappointing as all other major brokers have announced and majority are ready day 1 on June 4th. Will be looking at others options if no news
-
Chill Pill 🔮 (Bald) (@ripchillpill) reported@cobie @buyerofponzi @IBKR bro just made tens of millions of $$$ to become a customer service rep goated
-
Thryxie (@Thryxie_) reported@SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I had issues with delays aswell. Took about a week for funds to arrive
-
Adam Voulstaker (@AdamVoulstaker) reported@IBKR genius To setup the two factor auth the QR code in the main terminal will be lost because you sign in on your phone f me whoever is in your IT team needs the sack
-
𝔢𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔞𝔢𝔢 (@iB3Bestpony1985) reported@IBKR The issue is quite simple. I cannot invest in anything unless I lie about my income. People in pensions are not allowed to try and make money. Heaven forbid they actually get a foot up if they don't have a small fortune to use. What's wrong with knocking in 50 to $30 the minimum?
-
jacob (@FreeDrThug) reported@yeaaahzzz @IBKR It’s not terrible at all lol. Which platform do you think best? Or rather list a few that are materially better?
-
Investment (@Investm80789211) reported@IBKR I’m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me
-
EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported@belfort0609 @buyerofponzi @IBKR I'm hearing this is an increasing problem. You will be better off elsewhere .. IBKR went from a top tier broker to a bottom tier real fast as far as I'm concerned.
-
Gordon Attard (@GordonAttard) reported@IBKR I’m trying to re-open a closed account in Malta, but am locked out of 2FA/IB Key. Can you provide the best contact method for IBKR Ireland support to handle a security device reset?
-
Paulo Santos (@ThinkFinance999) reported@the_white_tig3r @IBKR Typically, no. You might exceeding the number of KRW you need to buy, and if you're in Europe, new stupid regulation (for which Europe is famous) won't let you buy even 1 KRW in excess if you have any margin anywhere. Reduce how many KRW you're buying and try again.

🏌♂️ R@m Malay 🏇 (@rammalayind) reported@IBKR Any update on my support ticket
-
Sachin (@bitcoin__asset) reported@IBKR I opened account..and trust me your system is pathetic..worst app performance..overall you are one of the worst exchange where i opened account and i regret this decision
-
Manny (@theverysmartone) reported@dontbsalti @IBKR @whop Whop is the worst platform ever, they truly don't care about the customers at all, they are all about the commissions they get from the course sellers.
-
SMH Trading (@MisticTrader) reportedIf you're tired of spam calls and you don't want to pay for a streaming music service, just call @IBKR and sit on hold. You can stay connected for a long time before they answer and you won't receive any spam calls. win/win.
-
Violet (@belfort0609) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR I told them to go **** themselves in the email closing my account. Never going back. Their building janitor can run their ops desk better than every keyboard monkey on there combined.
-
Investment (@Investm80789211) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon I’m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me

Manjit Singh (@ManjitS_India) reported@IBKR Hi, your menu option IVR language accent is beyond understanding for Indian customer care number. Can you keep it Indian accent??
-
joez.eth (@fbjoe) reportedWho's heading @IBKR product department? it looks like you guys put a lot of effort to make your UX terrible. Honestly if you pay me nothing I would do a better job
-
Sourav Kolay (@ksrv_k) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon @IBKR very bad experience! My profile access was restricted without any explanations. Contacted customer support multiple times without any response. Totally unethical practice by IBKR!
