-
Limpidish (@Imz_isNoGood) reported@IBKR the worst investment platform I’ve ever dealt with! Random rules that forcibly convert currencies, AI shoved down my throat even when I clearly said it was not helping and I needed someone to look into my issue! So yeah, taking my business somewhere else.
-
RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported@IBKR Thanks but this doesn't and won't work. I don't have my account info so when I call, it rejects me. Why is there no way to fix this I have money in my account but I can't access it
-
Ekapob⚔️ (@ekapob) reported@StateInterOffic @IBKR It's totally unacceptable. Hopefully the issue will be resolved soon.

froyomofo (@froyomofo1) reported@IBKR I put a ticket in FOUR DAYS AGO and still nothing back. Why ******** should I keep using a platform where I can’t get an answer to a question in a reasonable amount of time?!
-
Ross (@F1ashmanR) reported@Therichardralph @IBKR Do they have a cash isa you can easily transfer between? Same issue as you with trading 212, fees are high on the fx if scalp trading, Anything small cap is slow and generally poor execution price in comparison to my IG trading account
-
Long & Right (@Ramblin_Rebel13) reported@FredrikEJohans2 @IBKR @CFTC It eventually got corrected after several hours, had to test it every 15min. But never got a notification on why it happened or when it was supposed to be resolved. Submitted a complaint to the CFTC regardless, super unprofessional reckless

-
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.

-
Pupu Chen (@PupuChen4) reported@IBKR I’ve been a customer for 10 years. I’m quitting it n moving my pot over to another broker. Customer service sucks, they move your funds without your consent and are not forthcoming with the reasons for doing so
