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??
-
BlackjackGod (@blackjack_god) reported@IBKR 24 hour access sounds like edge until you price 3 things: carry, margin calls, and overnight gaps. More table hours only help if your read survives the next open.
-
Krystal Lynn (@LynnModine47127) reported@IBKR and if war stops it slams back down buy gold when its a boring market you don't want to be anyone, but the first one buying it during a tempary crisis.
-
Jason Appel (@JasonAppel10) reported@IBKR Failure! Broker issue: In the middle of the night, IB (Interactive Brokers) Canceled my entire order book, Including stops that were working overnight on futures positions. I deem this unacceptable for a platform to cancel stop orders and can not remain a customer there with any confidence Does anyone have a good broker/platform recommendation that offers access to everything? Futures, Options, Stocks, in US/Europe/Asian Markets? #LEAVEIBKR

JKL (@ljzmdg) reported@JoachimMo1985 @IBKR @IBKR_Europe I did not get order canceled but I was not able to submit entry orders last night. Got no trading permission error.

PhenixInvesting (@PhenixInvesting) reported@kallervoinen @IBKR I don't know I was on a call with 2 other traders and we are all on different continents. We all got "Invalid order" System Rejected order right around the bottom. The problem arise around 10:15 -10:30. We called Support and Trading Desk they provided 0 help and not even cover for the guys that were short. We ended up spamming the Keys until we could get out. I woke up 4 hours later and it's still not working Unacceptable for one of the most legit and biggest broker out there. Clients losing 100's of millions without any way to manage

Mr. Dustan (@mr_dustan) reported@IBKR The url on your profile is broken!
-
Sabs Goranova (@sgoranova82) reported@IBKR It's nothing the problem page can solve. The ticket has already been lodged with your team, but this is not being resolved and frankly is a joke
-
sroy (@roy34340023) reported@IBKR Your India ops is a complete circus. The simulation is a joke, your customer service is clueless. Zero faith in doing any trades thru you.
-
October Fund (@OctoberFund) reportedIs IBKR Paper Trader currently down? Why don’t I have permission to trade on the paper account anymore? @IBKR
-
ATIER (@AtierOfficial) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Been waiting a whole month for your Transfer team to reach out to my current broker so they can transfer all of my positions to IBKR. How is this normal? The most rubbish customer service I have ever seen. If you dont help me asap I’m going to cancel my transfer request.

Cluseau Investments (@blondesnmoney) reportedEver since IBKR made the font slightly more green the market has gone to ****. @IBKR please fix this.
-
Priom.eth (@0xPriom) reported@joemccann @IBKR You are doing god’s work! Ibkr probably has one of the worst apis
-
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. 🫡
-
Debra Robinson (@DebraG_Robins) reportedAnybody else having issues with their IBKR account and viewing their portfolios? @IBKR
-
Nikita G. 🎲 (@Gorev111) reportedChatGPT, Grok, and Claude are terrible at trading. $REI intelligence is not an LLM, study @rei_labs. It has already been proven profitable by @EclipticaOS. I’m confident that the new version, Rei Core 0.5a, will deliver strong results and significant profits on @IBKR in this experiment.
-
Adi (@adi_baradwaj) reported@joemccann @IBKR IBKR has surprisingly good API support for a boomer product
-
𝔢𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔞𝔢𝔢 (@iB3Bestpony1985) reported@IBKR hi, I have a disability support pension and I would like to do trading through you but your platform makes it near impossible and I would hate to think I would have to report you to the a Triple C for discrimination due to income. Perhaps we can work something out
-
Alex 👹 (@Alex_Steger_) reported@super509219312 @IBKR This is obviously a different level of concern and seems to show that they're not being careful about their updates. In the 7yrs of using them, most issues have been the annoying types, not mini heart attack types For me, if there's another major type of issue, then I'm moving
-
The 'investor' (@Pikachu21M) reported@IBKR Not being able to see the performance of an asset when we are changing the time-frame, and letting it fix on the intraday only is so stupid guys
-
KaRan ShAh (@karan_h_shah) reportedIBKR platform down for the last 10 minutes on both desktop and mobile. Anyone else facing this issue? #IBKR #trading @IBKR
-
Mathėus Lonning_ (@RosaYan1019) reported@IBKR You found this out, I'm not in trouble
-
SGPrincess | 土皮公主 (@sg_princess_sg) reportedThis weekend will be dedicated to fix my IBKR desktop regular crash, watchlist not saved upon restart and TradingView connection issue. What a nightmare it has been with IBKR. I will leave when my current options positions got clear. It should be by end of the year. @IBKR I think u truly need to catch up with ur dinosaur tech deck, but I am completely fine with the fact that u don’t want to serve tech generation traders.
