    @algoflows @IBKR It's so, so bad. Etrade is 100x better.

  • kingstonstock85 Kingston (@kingstonstock85) reported

    @Trading42morrow @IBKR Kindly note the legends took 3 years, in average, to get there. With legendary mentors. Take it slow, don’t buy into the hype. Review, build a playbook. Put in the hours. Your buddy does 3 hours a day? You should do 9 etc. Also start small and have a plan to size up.

    @IBKR The most complicated application I've ever tried. It's designed to annoy the customer, not help them.

  • AramasWealth Aramas Wealth (@AramasWealth) reported

    @DonnabryantAPE @IBKR All idiots who can't manage to open an account and meet the requirements are screaming sEcOnD aMeNdMeNt, maybe if you are a little smarter to know how to meet their opening requirements before crying it will help.

  • yesTHATlenny blackrock hate account (@yesTHATlenny) reported

    @IBKR this is a bad idea

  • amiraligoa Amir Ali (@amiraligoa) reported

    @IBKR Your customer support is impossible to get in touch with on chat and email, how can I invest with you if I can't contact you!Queries 1) do you have crypto -cardano, usdt, binance coin on your uk platform? 2) if so what are your fees to buy, hold and sell?

  • rattoy2 just another Rat Toy (@rattoy2) reported

    @IBKR Don't you help hedge funds short your customers by loan their shares to them?

    @eftegarie @IBKR Yeah the user interface is not the best, i agree it seems intentionally hard to find . I had a problem with creating account early on, with the exact problem of finding the chat button. You should find it in contact us. Google how to find it. Once you go there it gets better :)

  • s_sriniwas Sriniwas (@s_sriniwas) reported

    Hey @BrightwellApp my employer @CarnivalCruise is using your service for payroll - can I then transfer directly from Brightwell to @IBKR my broker account ? 🤔

  • SusanHayes_ Susan HayesCulleton CFA (@SusanHayes_) reported

    At the live @IBKR #Earnings call, the CEO notes the customer service call time waiting is down to single digit minutes. He says they have the appropriate human capital there now for the size of the business helped with self-service and chatbots. #Automation

    @avinute @DEGIRO @IBKR Such a shame, they could have become a huge broker in Europe... I won't recommand them from now on, I have been a client for 6 years. I will probably sell my shares aswell if they keep going down this path
