Interactive Brokers Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR Terrible service, perhaps the worst. I've had countless glitches and had my account locked before too.
-
miracle-dan (@yunyuntian) reported@IBKR IBKR, I am a refugee and I want to support you, but you use address verification to shut me out.
-
Smart Investor (@ranking_smart) reported@IBKR Can someone in your team support France answer us ? You are unreachable in any way of contact (website, phone..)
-
Himanshu (@hmnsh18) reported@IBKR Your account opening procedure is pathetic.. No customer support and no clear communication why a particular document is rejected My brother is trying to open the account from Saudi for last 2 months and always there is some document is pending
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR I find myself having to shut down and restart Traders Workstation twice a day. It is slow and a pain in the ***. I truly have had a terrible experience at IB. Good luck trying to talk to an actual person to get any type of support.
-
John Martin (@jminvesting) reportedI really want to use @IBKR and twice now I've tried to fund and set up an account. Their insistence on you having your phone nearby to check their mobile app for some code every 10 minutes has caused me to give up each time. Awful experience and poor security design.
-
Otunba ₿ (@OgbeiEdward) reported@IBKR @IBKR I deposited funds during an account application that was subsequently declined. I have raised a support ticket, sent emails, and sent DMs. Over a week later, no response and no refund. I expect a regulated institution to do better than this. Please resolve this urgently.
-
Michael Blau (@blauyourmind) reportedEverybody is talking about the @RobinhoodApp MCP, but almost nobody is talking about @IBKR launching something similar. Interesting choice, though: @IBKR went with a ChatGPT app instead of an MCP server, so I can't actually use it in codex. Only in ChatGPT.
-
Sam 🇨🇦 (@CanadasFukd) reported@IBKR $10.25 Commission for 10 call options. $10 per 1000 shares of ETF's WTF?
-
Jim Baranello (@BaranelloJim) reported@IBKR Hate to say it as an IBKR user but the platform is the absolute worst of any of the major retail brokers for active trading. Clunky and not intuitive. IBKR has great access to virtually all financial products and international markets but wish they would invest more time or energy on the platform itself. Looks like im not the only one who feels this way.
-
Adaxelo (@RoiSinge) reported@IBKR And what about the removal of PDT rules ? All brokers are removing it tomorrow. You are the worst broker ever, I am closing my account
-
M🅰️rbles (@Marbles6) reported@ASTS_SpaceMob I'm not worried. Launch in around 2 weeks. I can take 10% hit. The only people who benefit from selling are the enemy shorts. MoC is up, available shares to short are down by 75% with @IBKR. Only way we go down is if someone wants to buy at a lower price - propably significantly more than you paid yourself. Dont sell, price goes up. It really is that simple.
-
𝗠𝗲𝗲𝗽™ (@Meeptimelive) reported@TheFrumInvestor @IBKR Llc with liquidity problems nothing to be ashamed of. What factor rate are you looking for?
-
biotech_moo$e (@biotech_moose) reported@DrakeMEMENah @nakedjockman @IBKR I don't believe retails only own 58.99% of the float, it's inferred from self-reported tute data. Brokers never report retail $AMC holdings which allows ongoing fraud. IBKR Robinhood & other platforms continue to loan retail shares (that's part of the problem).
-
Sparky Slims (@brothachucka) reported@IBKR is a garbage broker. I've been trying for 2 weeks to buy some international stocks and it continues to not work. Meanwhile I've had to watch my main pick go up 70%. I've reached out to support, wasn't helpful. Was told 2-4 weeks for a response on my followup ticket.
