@battousai1130 @IBKR No other broker has API access, low margins, free wire transfers, or access to all the products I trade, I'm using them for a reason, but this is too much with all the errors/disconnects They used to honor my deposits instantly, dunno what happened, but I use Vanguard/TD mostly

@IBKR NO TRANSPARENCY GIVES A BAD IMPRESSION TO THE EMPLOYERS, "WE THE PEOPLE" (JUST CAUSE THE DEVIL MADE YOU DO IT, DIDNT MEAN YOU GOT NO KARMA), FREEWILL TO DECIEVE THE MASSES, WITH SNAKE OIL, & *******, HOW INGENIOUS, IT GOT THEM A COUNTRY & CONTROL

Mike Plunkett (@Plunk20) reported
@IBKR has been wonderful to work with untill today. The rep I worked with was unable to assist with a 3rd party wire. It ended with him saying IBKR cannot handle my needs and I can look for other brokers who may be able to. @IBKR can u help? @CharlesSchwab maybe we can we talk?

@JimJones1913 @IBKR A huge scam, period. Although it's hazardous to make predictions, it seems highly likely that the whole thing will come crashing down in the foreseeable future.

@IBKR DO NOT USE THEM. Zero customer service Trader workstation CRASHES all the time (on a Mac) Just plain useless. Time to move to another platform

CosmicShiva22 (@CosmicShiva221) reported
@IBKR seriously what happened to your customer service within a few years, near impossible to reach someone, 10 to 15 mn wait. Then you ask one question and 10 more mn wait transfered to someone else...........

@madaznfootballr Good job, congratulations! With my broker it is impossible to find stocks to short because after a run the next day they purposely don't let their customers. @IBKR Interactive Broker u are totally customer unfriendly and a scumbag company. 💩🤮 $ISIG

Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported
Scared to use "take profit". Lots to love w/ IBKR, but the rest is AWFWUL. I've lost LOADS of $$ from connectivity/data failures, misleading design, lag/errors, faulty UI/UX, mis-quoting the NBBO, server outages, ACH unpredictability. So many bust-worthy orders. Fck U @IBKR

@Mike_Hunt_Sr @joyflow4 They tried to fix it but as everything at @IBKR fixing errors takes ages. It should be very simple though they just need to aggregate IB UK account and IB Ireland account and treat them as one consolidated account.
-
Aurora Borealis (@JoneTan_2020) reported
@IBKR And certainly the worst broker to short stocks that have performed well a day before, because you can never short them with you, because there are supposedly no shares available, at least it is always your excuse! Only with you it is the case! 👌

@IBKR A single platform is not a bad idea, but risks increase.

@IBKR I’ve been trying to get in touch with your support for the last hour. Any secret dance I have to do in order to get in contact with someone?

Aman Gupta (@AmanGup42905275) reported
@IBKR Well it definitely has poor customer service, I’ve been waiting over 2 months for my business account to get approved after waiting over 2 weeks for an application issue that was your fault to get resolved. 2.5 months later and still waiting…

Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported
I realize that this should not be a question for IBKR uses but for @IBKR themselves... Can we move the maintenance window for futures to 5-6PM ET?

Dr. Jeff Ross (Pleb counselor) (@VailshireCap) reported
3/ ...to a new, client-friendly broker/custodian in 2022. I want what's best for my #Vailshire clients and @IBKR is failing them with terrible UI/UX and application/account services--despite years of complaints and suggestions. Sorry to rant.

Avery 🌸💝📈📊💹✊🌹 (@averygrrl) reported
@IBKR pro client here can you stop shutting your platform down at midnight every single night? kinda tired of losing thousands of dollars over your random restarts, data cuts and unannounced server outages trying to trade futures on IBKR is like lighting yourself on fire

The use of @IBKR will go down as one of the worst experiences of my life using a product. This wasnt a bad burger or a broken product. This was investments in our future made more difficult from this product. 1/2
