  • RecklessRobb Robbie Peterson (@RecklessRobb) reported

    @IBKR Worst UI in a platform and there’s no competition. 🖕🏻

  • vbcvv64143221 Tyler Brook (互关、互粉、 Follow) (@vbcvv64143221) reported

    @IBKR Finally, a way to turn my terrible stock picks into something useful.

  • TimothyFra20320 Timothy Franklin (@TimothyFra20320) reported

    @realjaypelle My entries are awesome, no trouble there. My problem seems to be missing the right sell point (and bad data @IBKR ). Either end up out to soon or hold too long.

  • Lilith_charles2 Lilith Charles 🦋 (@Lilith_charles2) reported

    @surfergurudude2 @IBKR I know low rates and QE don’t sound nice, but maybe they help keep things from getting bad. Do you think the Fed can do anything else, or is this all they can do?

  • surfergurudude2 Donald Jones (@surfergurudude2) reported

    @IBKR As the economy continues to stall , we will see the return of rates at zero and QE. We may even see the 10 year down to zero. I'm not happy about this, however it's the only way to keep wheels from coming off.

  • Loemb47 Loemb (@Loemb47) reported

    @IBKR Sorry, but the appearance of the actor in TV ad was shockingly bad. - Beard - Dress shirt w/ French cuffs. - NO tie ! The equivalent would be a bearded man attending a ’black tie event’ in a tuxedo w/ no tie, wearing white socks and sandals.

  • gaTHEGY African HODL (@gaTHEGY) reported

    @wealthnomix I can confirm after raising this issue with @IBKR yesterday

  • einizoimou NameCannotBeBlank (@einizoimou) reported

    @IBKR Hey @IBKR, it looks like there is a huge error going on in the app for hundreds of people regarding Cost Basis of bought shares. Have a look please!!! #IBKR

  • AaronLiv_ Aaron Livingston (@AaronLiv_) reported

    @IBKR your website is awful it will not let me log in.

  • OnaXX12 Onlydecentpeople (@OnaXX12) reported

    @IBKR Dear friends, I'm trying to link my IBKR account to a market data and I find it a really hard thing to do. I only want to buy bonds and keep them till maturity. Can you help me? Actually, now i wouldn't recommend that broker!!!!

  • BiggieBando KODIAK (@BiggieBando) reported

    @IBKR Voting for Heather Hill. Wish Yost didn't drop out. **** getting flooded and replaced by indians

  • DismalDefi DismalDeFi (@DismalDefi) reported

    @IBKR Up to 121 minutes on hold. This is the 5th call I made today. Total hold time today now exceeds 3 hours. Why bother to have “support”?

  • DismalDefi DismalDeFi (@DismalDefi) reported

    @IBKR The IRS and DMV both have better customer service than Interactive Brokers.

  • DismalDefi DismalDeFi (@DismalDefi) reported

    @IBKR I have called IB’s customer support 6 times today. Has anyone ever spoken to a human at Interactive Brokers?

  • ElderPerraut Elder Perraut (@ElderPerraut) reported

    @IBKR Wtf! America needs to amend the constitution now! Only those who come from American born lineage should be allowed to govern every inch of American soil!

  • erniewiseswig Ernie Wise's Wig (@erniewiseswig) reported

    @IBKR Is desktop down at the moment? I'm not getting any charts.

  • temujchaga Enemigo (@temujchaga) reported

    @IBKR IBKR needs to improve their client focus. Impossible to reach customer service on phone. And one can have millions in the IBKR brokerage account and no RM will ever be assigned to you.

  • Yogithebearish joe (@Yogithebearish) reported

    @IBKR Why does your software suck so bad? It is very unreliable. It is so frustrating. Worst brokerage around. I would complain to your customer support but they are impossible to get a hold of.

  • DroidHustlerOG waiting for U (@DroidHustlerOG) reported

    @IBKR can you fix it so that the trades tab works again, I use it to reopen contracts I've sold quickly but the past week or hasn't worked or very brief when it decides to. I'll have to switch brokers if this is not resolved

  • sir_traderx Sir Ambrabat (@sir_traderx) reported

    @IBKR I still remember my account username and password, but the problem is the 2 authentications that prevent me from operating my account.

  • sir_traderx Sir Ambrabat (@sir_traderx) reported

    @IBKR I have tried but it doesn't help. Please help me to fix it, currently I can only open my account with "read only" condition. Please check your DM, for my account details.

  • Theo_OOTRR Theo (@Theo_OOTRR) reported

    @HumbleDividends @IBKR Damn after all this time and all these tickets the dividend finally showed up and I still have no explanation from customer service.

  • Theo_OOTRR Theo (@Theo_OOTRR) reported

    Well the bad luck with brokers continues. This time @IBKR doesnt pay me my due dividend. 24h have passed, multiple tickets later and no answer. @IBKR is this standard practice with your customer service?

  • sir_traderx Sir Ambrabat (@sir_traderx) reported

    Dear Interactive Brokers Support @IBKR I am currently unable to log in to my Interactive Brokers account due to an issue with the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) process.

  • Bdourn7 B (@Bdourn7) reported

    @IBKR Please solve my problem with private messages. Bad customer service.

  • MaradeyErasto Erasto Maradey (@MaradeyErasto) reported

    @VolumeLeaders @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR Selling for 55-70$ and buying back at around 33-35 doesn’t seem to be a bad trade

  • Bdourn7 B (@Bdourn7) reported

    @IBKR Please reply to me quickly in private messages. I have a problem opening my account and I want a solution immediately.

  • belikejustin JA&B (@belikejustin) reported

    @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR we are still missing another double digit down in the coming month. high 30s coming.
