Kirk Hartley (@kirklsp) reportedI'm a client of both Chase and Interactive Brokers. Does anyone at @Chase know why Requests for Payment I initiate from @IBKR do not show up for approval on Chase's website or your app? I've wasted well over 60 minutes talking to your help line and they have no clue. Thank you.

Tim (@Tim158930786227) reported@Desi_Trade It’s one of those things I thought would never happen to me… just got notified from IBKR that they are shutting down my account. It’s crazy that they @IBKR does this.

0xW 🍌 (@0xWwwwwwww) reported@stoneymonster @TradingThomas3 Cause IBKR is ****. They know their data is wrong (for the past 15+ years), and they don't give a damn. @IBKR

-
Matthew Donegan-Ryan (@MatthewDR) reported@JOBhakdi I’ve done that using @Fidelity a half dozen times. The UI is atrocious but at least it isn’t as bad as @IBKR

One foot hurdle (@one_foothurdle) reported@super509219312 @IBKR It is very annoying. But in all honesty. It is the first time in a very long time that I have experienced a technical problem with @IBKR
-
SumoMoon (@sumo_moon) reported@mclaughli46343 @rogerhamilton @IBKR Sure looks like PR is coming. And now Clayton is being exposed by sec that Rico case should be juicy. And Moe and Ritz getting taken down across multiple lawsuits.
-
Leo GNK (@GnkLeo17852) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Hello, I am having trouble accessing my Interactive Brokers account. I recently deleted the authenticator from my Microsoft Authenticator app, and now I cannot log in because I no longer have access to the security code. Could you please help me recover my account and reset my

Manny (@theverysmartone) reported@dontbsalti @IBKR @whop Whop is the worst platform ever, they truly don't care about the customers at all, they are all about the commissions they get from the course sellers.
-
STACKDOE (@STACKDOE) reported@IBKR by far one of the worst ui is ancient its 2026 ! mobile app made to make you lose money... not sure who even gave it the green light. just awful on so many levels.
-
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.
-
Markets & Mayhem (@Mayhem4Markets) reportedI'm going to vote that they add @IBKR support to @edgeful. 🦾 What other brokers would you want to see support for? 👇
-
C pyles (@Cpyles42) reported@IBKR Is there a problem with your trading platform? Just lost ability to trade futures! No one answering phone or chat.
-
Mathėus Lonning_ (@RosaYan1019) reported@IBKR You found this out, I'm not in trouble
-
Agent Smith (@AiStockAgent) reportedI can’t close any of my futures positions at interactive Brokers.. anyone else having this issue?? Bad timing for IBKR to be broken in this crazy market! @IBKR
-
RemGat (@RicardoMGarcia5) reportedBeware that if you run into a problem at @IBKR you may find yourself completely abandoned. I have a claim open for 5 months now for a dividend they did not process, now I have posted a claim for the lack of response, nobody is responding to any of those. Horrible service!
-

-
Karzma (@abu_dalen) reported@IBKR Why doesn't the registration support Saudi Arabia?
-
super (@super509219312) reported@one_foothurdle @IBKR That’s comforting. Thank you. I was not able to place the trades again when cancellation happened. Support was not reachable. Later I got email saying it was a technical issue on their end.

Clem Chambers (@ClemChambers) reported@IBKR @bclund 1/10 customer support 10/10 platform. Spend money on humans.

Investment (@Investm80789211) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon I’m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me
-
Nikita G. 🎲 (@Gorev111) reportedChatGPT, Grok, and Claude are terrible at trading. $REI intelligence is not an LLM, study @rei_labs. It has already been proven profitable by @EclipticaOS. I’m confident that the new version, Rei Core 0.5a, will deliver strong results and significant profits on @IBKR in this experiment.
-
BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported@IBKR Followed up with web ticket several times. Slow response and unable to to say when ibkr will announce info pertaining to pdt rule change. Disappointing as all other major brokers have announced and majority are ready day 1 on June 4th. Will be looking at others options if no news
-
JT Gert (@the1Gert) reported@senzu_capital @JosephW31117119 @IBKR Same issue, fixed it by going into settings->trading permissions ->edit and then switch permission on for something that wasn't previously selected. Solved it for me right away.
