@IBKR ...not sure what's wrong with the web client...but P&L or Unrealized etc do not load properly! sometimes at all. Other users also face the same issue. It's getting ANNOYED.....every reload or "sorting" the columns the values keep changing

You might be wondering why I chose the Feb options to scalp on $TSLA into close and not next weeks. It's a simple matter of being on my cell phone and @IBKR not loading the damn option chain. So I had to buy something I previously held today 🥲

@IBKR One of the WORST brokerage companies on the planet. Their Customer Service is the WORST in the world, bar none!

@IBKR how do you get support? I have been on hold for 45 minutes and the chat doesn’t work either. I’m a Folio customer trying to login and it’s not working

@IBKR Message for Thomas P. You were perplexed on CNBC why you don't have more clients. I tried years ago to set up an account and it was way to difficult to sign in and use your platform. When I called with questions your overseas support was abysmal. I guarantee that's the reason.

@IBKR you guys need to fix your customer service! I can't get hold of you. Two days without being able to trade. Unacceptable!

Interactive Brokers @IBKR liquidated my entire non-leveraged position because there was no petty cash on the account to cover a tiny maintenance fee. Thank you guys. I will be deleting my account very shortly. Unbelievable.
