Interactive Brokers Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Shraey (@iamshraey_) reported@IBKR trying to open an account, but the only ID option shown is an Australian driver’s licence, and submission always fails with invalid ID type. Support keeps telling me to upload a passport which isn’t even an available option or try again as it might be tech glitch. Is this a serious platform with tech or support team or just GPT-4 era vibe coded?

Hits London (@HitsLondon) reported@cashflow_king94 @Trading212 @IBKR Only issue with IKBR is they won't accept partial ISA trsnsfers in. Has to be the full portfolio for any given year.

Susan-Betty Love (@QuackSlayerHK) reported@IBKR Fix your fxxking app/platform. This is unacceptable during market hours
-
Natalka (@NataliiaKoval) reported@IBKR Phone support in 2026? I’m constantly traveling and changing phone numbers to the country I’m visiting. I don’t have a permanent phone number. That’s why I can’t login as you blocked the possibility to change phone numbers.

Sr Investidor (@SrInvestidor) reported@IBKR Unfortunately support is not being very helpful, their response is always that there is no ECD and no mitigation and that they are waiting for “the developers response”, we are close to a month wait now, I was hoping you could shake things up a little bit

Jesus (@CCrypto1001) reported@IBKR It's impossible to contact IBXR support: 1(877)442-2757, it doesn't work. I can only hope that the issue they fabricated to keep my $3464.85 cash will be returned to me someday. U25159972

Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reportedIBKR has made me lose so much money it's gross. Can't sell covered calls on positions I own? Why? I'm in a margin account with positive SMA etc?!? @IBKR no help from the trade desk and as of yesterday a senior trade desk rep didn't even know your own margin rules.
