@IBKR please help. My account transferred from Folio and is locked out. No one picking up the phone.

@armin_brack @IBKR Heared about individuals who could retain their account with IB UK, thus keeping the generous US protection scheeme. Smaller accounts needed to transfer to mainland brokerage firms. Account size matters I suppose. Contacted customer service about this, no sattisfying answer.

@IBKR We finally need free market data and a nee interface for the mobile app and web platform, this os a joke IB!!! I don’t know what I‘m paying commission for....no customer support, the live market data, an outdated interface that makes everything take twice as long...

The Poor Swiss
(@thepoorswiss) reported
@un_seul_pas @IBKR If the regulation applies to them, I do not think they will have a choice. And I would rather use a broker that follow regulations. The fact that the regulations is absolutely stupid is not IB's doing. But we'll see!

@IBKR @mmaunder That's nonsense, and even if it wasn't, there's no reason why you couldn't make this "feature" (aka bug) opt-in. Some of us use password managers, which provide an option to clear your clipboard after a very short delay. TWS really doesn't need any extra UX barriers.

@plantmath1 @pullupjumper89 @IBKR Maybe I’m wrong but doesn’t RObinhood have better margin rates? Seems like good margin rates are associated with terrible customer service.
