  • FrugalEbenezer Unidimensional Neanderthal (@FrugalEbenezer) reported

    @puppyeh1 @IBKR Damn it, I live in Sweden and can trade the stock with my local broker but iron ore is sooo far outside of my circle of competence. Don’t have the bullshit filter to assess whether this is real value or value trap

  • ThinkFinance999 Paulo Santos (@ThinkFinance999) reported

    @IBKR I'm already trying to handle it through tickets. Half of the problem has been solved.

  • gauravs85278125 gauravshekhawat (@gauravs85278125) reported

    @IBKR has the worst customer care service in India. If you don't have an account with them and are considering to have one, I would advise you against it. I am on hold with their customer care for 2 hours now.

  • leonarth leonardo (@leonarth) reported

    Did any of you ever experience $IBKR @IBKR change your buying power from $100k to $0 overnight on a Saturday? Then when you try to reach them support in English in unavailable and the Chat system is under maintenance. Is this a mistake or I am being liquidated on Monday?

  • mapacheliberal_ Mapache Liberal (@mapacheliberal_) reported

    @IBKR app has been down the whole weekend, can you let me know when will be working correctly again?

  • haiprinca Princa Karim (@haiprinca) reported

    @NicolasVanhove @IBKR @Wise Hey, Nicolas! I've got the same problem now 😔 The money that I should be receiving this evening hasn't reflected to my account. Mind sharing your side of story through DM?

  • _Phajas_ Stefano Geniola (@_Phajas_) reported

    @IBKR Yes, start again. It is 3 days that your mobile App doesn't work. No one can login.

  • JohannOldenbarn St Johnspoint (@JohannOldenbarn) reported

    @IBKR @barronsonline Mobile app offline now for 24h. „Problems with login“......

  • scraffycoco3 Rafael Roces (@scraffycoco3) reported

    @IBKR cant get security code # can i get help?

  • Caffeine_Rules3 CaffeineRules3 (@Caffeine_Rules3) reported

    @KingEvie @IBKR Yeah...they crashed on Friday before the close, now still having problems?

  • WormanAlec Alec Worman (@WormanAlec) reported

    @IBKR Been unable to connect to the mobile app for around 12 hours now. Connection problems seem like a common theme with interactive brokers.

  • tasca05745219 tasca (@tasca05745219) reported

    @TheRetroRanger @puppyeh1 @IBKR It's actually good practice in my experience. Can't find it on the "local" exchange ... take a look at Frankfurt (or in this case Munich). Float is oftentimes bad though. Also, a brokerage account in the "local" country can be easily opened most of the time.

  • PraneetS LogicMantra (@PraneetS) reported

    @IBKR unable to login to my account from yesterday, when are the services going to come back up?

  • BankofVol BankofVol 💉¹⁰⁰⁰ 🦠¹⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰⁰ (@BankofVol) reported

    @RosbelDuran @IBKR Yep, They launched a VWAP algo which was supposed to run until the close and due to the outage the algo stopped running 10 minutes before the close.

  • SarPasTrade SarPas (@SarPasTrade) reported

    @IBKR It would be nice from you to give your customers an update on the issue we are facing since Friday. Technical issues happen but at least do something about communication, which have been terrible overall.

  • PauliWalnut Pauli Walnuts (@PauliWalnut) reported

    Hey @IBKR when are you fixing your server side issues? Trading begins in less than 24 hours

  • touri56 Popeye (@touri56) reported

    @IBKR You think I haven't already done that? Been a week, no response, just to get market data sorted!! @WebullGlobal please when are you allowing accounts for EU residents ? Ibkr has no competition in EU, hence this slow service.

  • StefanVolovar Steves Stocks (@StefanVolovar) reported

    @IBKR I have a serious issue with login to my mobile IBKR app like many others. Problems with connectivity is really frustrating last months, thinking to move to other broker. Thank you @IBKR

  • BahluiHedge BahluiHedge (@BahluiHedge) reported

    @IBKR The mobile app has been down 24h+, when are you going to fix it? Can we have an official statement on the state of your platform/cause of outages? what availability are you achieving, are you above 95% at least?

  • KingEvie Evren (@KingEvie) reported

    @Caffeine_Rules3 @IBKR Pricing not working

  • gulyasm Mate Gulyas (@gulyasm) reported

    Avoid @IBKR. They don't allow me to withdraw your money from the cancelled account! It's a scam. Support does not answer (for days). Oh, and the account application was cancelled because I selected an account type from their own dropdown menu.

  • andreasyeah1994 Andreas Georgiou (@andreasyeah1994) reported

    @IBKR Your app is not working for the whole Saturday...

  • dandi1212 Dandi1212 (@dandi1212) reported

    @danushman @IBKR Told you a few months ago,they are one of the worst ones imo. I left them long time ago.

  • Densnij x 🇵🇸 (@Densnij) reported

    @IBKR Ur mobile app not working

  • josephboyce Joe Boyce (@josephboyce) reported

    @IBKR @barronsonline Yup, same here! Thank god I never funded the account bc I’ve been locked out since opening with no access to support other than 3 hr phone hold time. Remember when Barron’s was relevant? Good times.

  • WeedStocksFTW WeedStocks FTW (@WeedStocksFTW) reported

    @CymroTrader @IBKR So, no answer from #IBKR, but the problem is still there?

  • Seba_DLP Seba De la Peña (@Seba_DLP) reported

    @IBKR hey! I want to withdraw my funds but you won't let me! I sent a message to support one week ago. And still haven't received an answer!!

  • mrsands415 Michelle Sands (@mrsands415) reported

    @IBKR terrible experience. Please provide customer service number. I need to close my account and I’ve never received my account info/welcome email (part of why I’m closing account).

  • rakayadav88 -------- (@rakayadav88) reported

    @IBKR I have been trying to reach out to you guys to help me unblock my account. Please assist.

  • gulyasm Mate Gulyas (@gulyasm) reported

    @IBKR @barronsonline This is an absolute joke. #1?! No customer support at all, web portal is a horrible experience with broken features and false information. Expect hours-long wait on the phone, weeks-long wait on messages.
