-
Yousif Ashknani (@AshknKW) reported@yao_yao520 @IBKR Very stupid having maintenance at this time. Maybe trying to screw ppl idk anything in 2026 is possible.
-
William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported@IBKR A new week begins. When would you stupid team cancel pdt rules？
-
Palmer (@BankTheTrade) reported$MRNA 174.38 down 20 @IBKR delayed the updated option chains until today for whatever reason....
-
Sophie 🌙 (@sofi3727_m) reported@mm_options @IBKR Server-side outage, not your fault. Did you check the IBKR status page or try a different device?
-
Yishai Cohen (@Yishai__Cohen) reportedAfter @DoorDash, @RobinhoodApp is now launching an MCP server to work with agents directly. The fact that they're opening to agents is the tell that the UX/UI moat these consumer platforms built is already eroding, and in a few years it won't be worth much. DoorDash is better positioned than Robinhood thanks to its physical delivery infrastructure. If @IBKR or other cheaper brokers open agent access, Robinhood is in real trouble (execution is a commodity the moment the agent is the user).
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon And your customer service is even worse than your software. If you are not already using IB stay away from them they suck.
-
habibi (@habibi_zzyy) reported@ekapob @IBKR yes。down
-
Driving the Future (@driving_tf) reported@IBKR I wont even try to open an account. Too many people I know and respect complain your UI is horrible. Not going to until you guys get inboard and invest in your mobile and desktop UI
-
HappyHKL (@HappyHkL1) reported@IBKR The system is completely down and we can't trade! The downtime is causing real financial losses. How will IBKR compensate affected users for this outage? Please address this immediately! 🤬😤😤😤😤😤
-
FactPulse (@FactPulse93508) reported@IBKR Worst broker for trading small caps on the planet. They will lock you from exiting your position whenever they feel like it and you will lose 5-10x more before the cap is lifted.
-
The Titan Traders (@TT_stocks_) reported@D3GSolutions @IBKR Worst customer service in history I’m not joking. Took them (6) months to reach out to me about my inquiry about a simple rebate on my $371,000 in commissions I spent. At the end of it all they said there is nothing they can do. ******* worthless
-
Drago (@Dragonito007) reported@AshknKW @IBKR Bro I sold a lot of things 15 minutes before the crash I would go crazy now if I didn't.
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Your software is such a pos. It is not sending the notification to my phone for me to login. I cannot access my account. I tried logging in with the QR code and it shows page not found. I need access to my account. You are just the software in the market. Total garbage
-
The Titan Traders (@TT_stocks_) reported@D3GSolutions @IBKR Incredible there isn’t a good broker to use in 2026. TD Ameritrade was hands down the best but it’s gone now and nothing even compares now. Pathetic
-
She Laughed (@TatsukiTop1) reported@IBKR Too slow...
-
Martin BC (@MARTINPARK111) reported@IBKR Exactly. A clever model inside a broken process is still a broken process.
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reportedGood grief @IBKR how can your app be this bad? I thought TOS at Schwab was bad but take me back!!!
-
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.
-
KhunCrypto (@KhunCrypto) reported@IBKR I am writing to complain about persistent issues on your website: login is unreliable across multiple access points, and my saved settings (portfolio, watchlist) are regularly lost, forcing me to reconfigure them constantly.
-
Kate Whittaker (@KateWhitta17313) reported@Therichardralph @IBKR I use Halifax isa Hargreaves’s Lansdowne isa Few trading accounts with different ones Halifax is decent tbh never problem executing trades or selling positions.
-
Rod Farva (@large_farva34) reported@IBKR You are terrible. I have been trying to get money out of my account for 4 weeeks. I truly hate your company
-
Kir Royal Trader 🥂 (@go_mask) reportedHey @TradingView and @IBKR 👋 I’ve been trying to connect IBKR account to TradingView to trade directly from the platform, but the connection keeps failing. Is there currently a known issue with the IBKR integration? Thanks for the help.
-
Said Suleimanov (@suleimanov50905) reported@monad @IBKR Monad has so much bullish news, and I don't care about the price. I don't understand why. Mon is falling in price again. What's the problem, dear Monad, why so! Can't you raise the price of Mon
-
HappyHKL (@HappyHkL1) reported@IBKR Over 60 minutes of complete outage during extreme market volatility, and NOT A SINGLE WORD from you?! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬Traders are trapped and losing money every second as prices flip! We demand an immediate public statement AND a clear loss compensation plan NOW! 💣🔥😤🤬😤🤬😤🤬😤🤬

-
MilkyWay (@Olua_AO) reported@D3GSolutions @IBKR I hate their UX, terrible for trades
-
RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported@IBKR I'm done with you A.I. I've filed a complaint with the SEC. Maybe that will get your attention.
-
Thomasius (@TH0MA51U5) reported@IBKR Your support is TRASH! I already sent about 5 requests weeks, some month ago. Still no answer. I dont think I will ever get one. And there is no other way to resolve my issues with IBKR. So there is no solution for my problems, while IBKR stock is skyrocketing. Shame on you!
-
Catherine898 (@funfoodlover) reported@IBKR I don't have money to invest. That is my main problem
-
Saptarshi Das, CFA (@saptarshi_tweet) reported@IBKR @Paysafe @IBKR do you ever solve issues. Your customer service is -100 out of 10. You haven't been able to solve a critical problem for over 20 days now. Ticket #T877121. Are they sleeping on their beds. The issue has been escalated 4-5 times already. DO YOUR JOB!
