The_Astronaut (@The_Astronaut18) reportedI want to like Interactive Brokers, I really do. Excellent rates on cash/margin. Theoretically, they should be a top broker, but they need to purge and replace their engineering department. Login issues today, poor site performance most other days. You had one job. @IBKR

DMVentures (@D_M_Ventures) reported@SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I never had a problem with mine. It is a segregated account, so you can only wire to your own account. If you donβt include your username it takes longer to show on the platform tho

realbd (@real_BD_2025) reported1/ Samsung Securities just became the first korean broker to launch an online omnibus account service if you have an @IBKR account, you can now buy korean stocks without opening a korean account

super (@super509219312) reported@one_foothurdle @IBKR Happened to me too. Multiple orders got canceled. They said it was a technical issue on their end. But it it rather alarming, given that their support is hardly reachable. When situations like this happen, you need support more easily available to deal with it.

Brian Lund (@bclund) reportedAfter being a customer for 20+ years at @IBKR, Iβm seriously considering changing brokers. Earlier this week, I got a margin call notice, which made no sense because my account is fully funded. Turns out it was tied to an old secondary account I created years ago to sweep in some non-marketable securities β you know, those dregs weβve all held onto that technically went to zero but still somehow show up in the account. (Donβt lie, youβve done it too.) Anyway, this account has sat idle for years, and for some reason it incurred a $12 charge, which pushed the zero-balance account into a margin call. Iβve tried contacting @IBKR numerous times about this, but if you know anything about IB, customer service is not the reason you use them. I even wired funds into the account to clear it. They show they received it, but I canβt find any record of it being credited, and I suspect it may have been applied to the wrong account. There was a time when it made sense to use Interactive Brokers because they had aggressive commissions and access to hard-to-trade issues. But nowadays, that advantage is mostly gone. Iβm seriously wondering why I would stay with them when such a minuscule issue has turned into such a major pain in the ***.

NottsStargazer π΄ππ (@Nottsstargazer) reported@IBKR support is AI slop nonsense. Nobody responds sensibly. Utter garbage.
-
Amit Gandhi (@amitpg) reported@JasonAppel10 @IBKR All brokers have some system issues from time to time ! So, in that respect you can't guarantee 100% reliability anywhere. Still to find a broker that beats IBKR all things taken into account.

Prof.Coin π (@Crypto_Educator) reported@buyerofponzi @IBKR They grew too fast and their support has always been the weakest link
