-
Cypher3d (@RealityCypher) reported@IBKR has the worst customer support I've seen for any product/service I've ever used in my entire life. It's honestly breathtaking...
-
alanxyz (@alanxyz129) reportedInteractive Brokers seems to have lost my deposit. They already had my bank details and names but the customer services insist on asking me to provide proof of transfer again, otherwise they won't look into it. Is it strange? @IBKR @IBKR_Europe
-
Hyperbolic Discounter (@HyperbolicDisco) reported@senzu_capital @IBKR Yep. It is worrying. All the permissions are in place - I checked, so it must be a glitch. I emailed my rep - she’s very responsive. Hopefully it is fixed by morning.

JKL (@ljzmdg) reported@JoachimMo1985 @IBKR @IBKR_Europe I did not get order canceled but I was not able to submit entry orders last night. Got no trading permission error.
-
DeV (@A_Dev9) reported@IBKR I had to deal with 3 separate customer care executives on 3 different instances and each of them gives conflicting reasons and advice for the delay and additional documentation. The customer care folks who handle the calls are not clear of your own process.

super (@super509219312) reported@vraptor75011 @IBKR They said it was technical issue btw.
-
Steve (@IlhadoSteve) reported@IBKR The worst customer service EVER! I started an application on Thursday 3/19 and I already hate you. Was denied trading permission for futures on a cash account. Nobody can tell me why I was denied or what the requirements to trade futures are.

Vrushabh Bhangod (@Vrushabh3211) reported@IBKR hi , I think there’s an error with the total calculations when underlyings are in different currencies like ILS or EUR. The final daily P&L isn’t converted to USD. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thanks !

SMH Trading (@MisticTrader) reportedIf you're tired of spam calls and you don't want to pay for a streaming music service, just call @IBKR and sit on hold. You can stay connected for a long time before they answer and you won't receive any spam calls. win/win.

John Morina-If you build it they will come (@JohnMorina2) reported@IBKR your platform sucks and your customer service is as bad as Spirit Airlines. I have been on hold for 35 minutes calling from overseas so the cost will be extremely expensive. You suck, always have and the reason I hate using your platform
-
toti (@Aonnoa_) reported@IBKR You must have Push notification enabled on your Phone to confirm your withdrawal request within the app. Otherwise please login to Client Portal and confirm your Withdrawal request. ?
-
CT🪐 (@gercekci_V) reported@joemccann @IBKR @ibkr has a horrible user-interface, i decided to stop using it and pay premium extra cost elsewhere where user interface is much more friendly. call me stupid but I have seen zero improvement by ibkr in the last 7 years - they do not even try
-
𝔢𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔞𝔢𝔢 (@iB3Bestpony1985) reported@IBKR hi, I have a disability support pension and I would like to do trading through you but your platform makes it near impossible and I would hate to think I would have to report you to the a Triple C for discrimination due to income. Perhaps we can work something out
-
Ricky Chen (@ChenRshen3p) reported@IBKR IB Desktop is down, nothing is loading at the moment, any info on that?
-
October Fund (@OctoberFund) reportedIs IBKR Paper Trader currently down? Why don’t I have permission to trade on the paper account anymore? @IBKR
