Interactive Brokers Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jameslechte James L (@jameslechte) reported

    @IBKR 3. Completely unaccountable when they, or their system makes a mistake. On many occasions, they have been at fault, including their IPO subscription function (broken) which has failed twice for me on big allocations due to technical issues.

  • gentiltrader Thomas Gentil (@gentiltrader) reported

    @IBKR hello my account is not logging in this morning. it keeps reconnecting to the internet .... my internet is fine i did a speed test.. this is horrible. please fix this asap

  • gentiltrader Thomas Gentil (@gentiltrader) reported

    @IBKR not logging in today.... please fix

  • bullsclaws BC (@bullsclaws) reported

    @Sethrogen If you are listening please help. @IBKR is insurrecting my ***, and your ***, and her ***, literally all the asses it wants it's taking. Both Canadians / US are getting screwwwwwed here, we need to speak up.

  • tyrolfinance Wienerschnitzel (@tyrolfinance) reported

    @IBKR @RobinhoodApp @CNBC So happy to help the markets stabilize yesterday by only being allowed to sell my piker $AMC $GME positions to a whale and not another piker.

  • jonhurwi Jonhurwi (@jonhurwi) reported

    @IBKR This is complete BS! This attitude definitely isn’t serving your customer that wants to use the app to grow their net worth

  • JimmyGooGoo 🐿🔥🐿🔥JimmyGooGoo (@JimmyGooGoo) reported

    @vincent13031925 THEY RAN OUT OF MONEY and intentionally manipulated the price down so they, @RobinhoodApp (@IBKR did it too $IBKRQ), ran out of $ and decided to manipulate stock instead of covering their liquidity requirements.

  • fujo Rob Cornish (@fujo) reported

    Your server @Trading212 and @ibkr API better be ready for the **** storm that’s about to happen. #GME

  • jim_boswell Jim Boswell (@jim_boswell) reported

    @Jamaican0071 @IBKR @mcuban They didn’t close positions unless there was a liquidity issue. They prevented the opening of me positions and only allowed individuals to enter trades that closed a position. That is my understanding.

  • VorfreudeK WallStreetBets Officer 22nd Infantry Division (@VorfreudeK) reported

    @IBKR oh **** right off.

  • 020trader Maarten Mosselman (@020trader) reported

    @CountVonCount15 @IBKR Not really true, I am short a few $AMC shares. No problem locating.

  • Neel73 Indraneel Biswas (@Neel73) reported

    Anyone else having issues with @IBKR right now ? Not able to log in on mobile and desktop

  • Vantrades V₳N (@Vantrades) reported

    @IBKR hello is any one in live support either in the chat or phone. been trying to connect with you guys in chat for the past 1 and half hour and 20 minutes on phone... no answer ?

  • LandonCLedford Landon Ledford 👋 (@LandonCLedford) reported

    @mcuban @IBKR Didn't read all responses here, but noticed these contradictions: "Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev said Thursday that the company did not have liquidity issues." "Robinhood raised $1 billion in emergency funds from investors this week as the platform struggles with a surge in trading"

  • IlBmac BmacIL (@IlBmac) reported

    @M_iikun @ChrisCuomo @IBKR It's a liquidity issue for citadel. We shouldn't GaF though. This was pure manipulation to protect who has the money.

  • Nick_Giannoulis Nick Giannoulis, CFA, CFM, AFM (@Nick_Giannoulis) reported from Poplar, England

    Anyone having the same issue? Can @IBKR be trusted with trading when they cannot solve technical issues with opening an account? Traders of $GME $AMC $NOK had any issues?

  • matthewdemiros2 matthew.demiroski (@matthewdemiros2) reported

    @IBKR trading pre-market, I go long on a stock. All good timing is good. I’m in the green profit. AS I GO TO SELL MY POSITION, I get a message that the server is down. Then the server didn’t come back for at least 6 minutes later putting me in the red.

  • jameslechte James L (@jameslechte) reported

    @IBKR Unfortunately @ibkr its way too little and late: you clearly breached your obligations to 1. NOT contract your customers upon the policy / operational change, 2. stopped long orders even with plenty of liquidity, stopped supporting customer service requests during this period

  • JeremyVanEck Jeremy Van Eck (@JeremyVanEck) reported

    @IBKR Picking winners and losers in a market and it's not your money... /is/ illegal. Here's another target for a lawsuit. When AOC AND Tes Cruz agree on something... Hell froze over. Here's your sign stupid.

  • gentiltrader Thomas Gentil (@gentiltrader) reported

    @IBKR hello my account is not logging in this morning. it keeps reconnecting to the internet .... my internet is fine i did a speed test.. this is horrible. please fix this asap @IBKR

  • checkthearbs Jake (@checkthearbs) reported

    @IBKR Robinhood had clearinghouse liquidity issues from large $GME buying and I believe it wasn’t nefarious. $IBKR whose clients skew educated had massive short liabilities that they realized could turn uncollectible (like negative oil saga) so he turned it all off. That is nefarious.

  • microOneHe microOne (@microOneHe) reported

    @IBKR I'm trying to find a way to send an email but every time I hit send email through the platform, it gives me an error. Could I send here the message and then you could redirect to your customer support service?

  • AlMoulah11 Bader Al Moulah (@AlMoulah11) reported

    @TigerHu62791838 @cisko7311 @IBKR This argument is wrong. Also theres a bunch of retails who are willing to hold passed the peak and be left woth the bag if it means taking down this left of #manipulation and #corruption

  • bluenylon2 blue_nylon (@bluenylon2) reported

    @IBKR allowing $GME purchases again. Snagged one share now down 20% in 3 minutes

  • CountVonCount15 DvonD (@CountVonCount15) reported

    @020trader @IBKR IB is bad for short selling locates, so almost no one uses them for that. 300% hike lol.

  • gg_veritas Gaurav Gupta (@gg_veritas) reported

    Anyone else having issues with @IBKR not showing linewise unrealised PnL on app?

  • NathanMargaglio Nathan Margaglio (@NathanMargaglio) reported

    @IBKR I went with @IBKR to specifically avoid these kinds of issues. I'm jumping ship to @Fidelity.

  • satsandspacs Sats and SPACs (@satsandspacs) reported

    @BeanyMcBeanface @SSTSpacs @IBKR It is $10 a month to keep your account open but they take that down by around 1/2 cent with each trade. So if you trade a lot, it works out. You can buy units, stocks and warrants.

  • Nick_Giannoulis Nick Giannoulis, CFA, CFM, AFM (@Nick_Giannoulis) reported from Poplar, England

    @elonmusk Is there any reliable broker that you can open an account quickly? I tried with @IBKR but they are useless. It takes 4 days and the support is not helpful with speeding up the process..

  • kumar_amit amit kumar (@kumar_amit) reported

    @mr0market @bgurley @IBKR N Schwab n ameritrade...... Webull Public all..... Since Monday this week whole planet knew what **** is going on n if someone Ohh suddenly some stupid fck rule led 5 top brokers of US to simultaneously block access to only buying securities is incredulous
