    @IBKR I don’t know who ‘chooser broker’ is but your platform is terrible for day trading IMO. Very hard to navigate and overpriced commissions for low priced stocks because you charge per share

  • M1O2M1O2M1O2 Maher El Obeid (@M1O2M1O2M1O2) reported

  • QuikQuak iHarsh (@QuikQuak) reported

    @WelcomeWellness @IBKR I asked IKBR a few questions on this months ago, but no reply. To them Twitter is an advertising platform, not something to help/interact with customers.

  • NoellAurelius Aurelius Noell (@NoellAurelius) reported

    @IBKR waiting times and quality of call center unacceptable. What effective channel do you offer to solve problems for customers??

  • _mumbling_me The Portfolio Trader (@_mumbling_me) reported

    @jameswhelan42 @Telstra @IBKR If it's a mobile service, don't they have a "view your call logs and charges" option when you login to your account online? I am with a small provider #telechoice they have that option on the online account.
