  • Chrizze Christer Johansson 🛡️ (@Chrizze) reported

    @IBKR @grok What does the reviews and customers say about this service?

  • ihumansanity Jacob White (@ihumansanity) reported

    @MalolanC @IBKR Raising maintenance 660% without warning seems extreme and deliberately timed to screw people directly around the dividend and the end of the most important quarter in the history of MSTR. Not a great business model to try and make money off of wrecking your customers.

  • Imaburnerboi Rami Tuz (@Imaburnerboi) reported

    @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR Is this after the crash or considering both. If both, wouldn’t that really mean nothing?

  • GregorIvan52055 Gregor Ivanovic (@GregorIvan52055) reported

    @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR Once all the fear has been priced in, and this is about bad as it’s gets, HIMS has a massive runaway upwards for shorts to finally capitulate and get squeezed. It might take months.

    Dear Interactive Brokers Support @IBKR I am currently unable to log in to my Interactive Brokers account due to an issue with the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) process.

  • sir_traderx Sir Ambrabat (@sir_traderx) reported

    @IBKR I have tried but it doesn't help. Please help me to fix it, currently I can only open my account with "read only" condition. Please check your DM, for my account details.

  • BasimEsmail Basim Esmail (@BasimEsmail) reported

    @IBKR A THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) battery, which includes launchers, missiles, radar, and support equipment, typically costs between $1 billion and $1.8 billion. The cost of an individual THAAD interceptor missile is approximately $12.9 million,

  • Bdourn7 B (@Bdourn7) reported

    @IBKR Please solve my problem with private messages. Bad customer service.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @IBKR @grok Customer reviews of Interactive Brokers are mixed. Many praise its low fees, global market access, and advanced tools like Trader Workstation, ideal for experienced traders. However, some find the platform complex, especially beginners, and report slow customer service with delays in resolving issues. Recent regulatory fines also raise concerns. Consider your trading experience before choosing IBKR.

  • LiFeBATT Michelle Robinson (@LiFeBATT) reported

    @IBKR We need smarter brokers with AI help.

    @HumbleDividends @IBKR Damn after all this time and all these tickets the dividend finally showed up and I still have no explanation from customer service.

  • ihumansanity Jacob White (@ihumansanity) reported

    @IBKR just raised the margin maintenance requirements on $MSTY from 15% to 100% overnight. I just wrote puts a month out yesterday. Thanks 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

  • LaMonicaBuzz Paul R. La Monica (@LaMonicaBuzz) reported

    Circle finally pulling back a bit today. But only down 5%. And $CRCL was the second-most actively traded stock last week at @IBKR according to @SteveSosnick. Trailed only $TSLA. And Circle has far more many net buys than sells than other popular stocks.

  • himsinvestor Niklas Bergmann (@himsinvestor) reported

    @Imaburnerboi @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR He definently means after the Crash. Which is a very good sign for Hims. It could skyrocket again.

  • DroidHustlerOG waiting for U (@DroidHustlerOG) reported

    @IBKR can you fix it so that the trades tab works again, I use it to reopen contracts I've sold quickly but the past week or hasn't worked or very brief when it decides to. I'll have to switch brokers if this is not resolved

  • TimothyFra20320 Timothy Franklin (@TimothyFra20320) reported

    Can we get an instant messaging system when trading a stock? This would be super helpful when you see people making obviously stupid decisions on trades, for talking **** while trading (imagine if bears and bulls could heckle each other!!!). @IBKR @CharlesSchwab #brokers

  • MaradeyErasto Erasto Maradey (@MaradeyErasto) reported

    @VolumeLeaders @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR Selling for 55-70$ and buying back at around 33-35 doesn’t seem to be a bad trade

  • belikejustin JA&B (@belikejustin) reported

    @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR we are still missing another double digit down in the coming month. high 30s coming.

  • afriWeichi NEVIS 🤗 (@afriWeichi) reported

  • Brian_S1_1986 Brian (@Brian_S1_1986) reported

    @Tech_Investor20 @IBKR If true, and more buyers, then why is the price down? Something doesn’t add up

  • Theo_OOTRR Theo (@Theo_OOTRR) reported

    Well the bad luck with brokers continues. This time @IBKR doesnt pay me my due dividend. 24h have passed, multiple tickets later and no answer. @IBKR is this standard practice with your customer service?

  • Bdourn7 B (@Bdourn7) reported
