    @IBKR I closed the chat, and then what surprised me was that it showed somebody helped me already and my problem was solved. How riduculous! I tweeted you twice, no reply at all. Is this how you treat your customers??? How disgusting! (2/2)

    Has Interactive Brokers $IBKR crashed for anyone else? Getting a message error that their servers are down. @IBKR, get on this stat please.

    @stephenonelson @IBKR Im not familiar with IBKR and would consult with their support. Seems suspect that you cant take a $30 hit, no difference than if you accepted $30 less when you initially opened .... -- you did cancel your 50% closing order right

    @Nerd_Abroad @IBKR Same here. Unable to reach Prime Service customer support.

    Ken (@Kenaschmidt) reported

    @IBKR Maybe move one of your 5 customer service reps over to the IT department and start fixing things. Charts wouldn't load half the week. Servers dropping out 10 minutes before the weekend. Act like a legitimate brokerage.
