Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
ATIER (@AtierOfficial) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Been waiting a whole month for your Transfer team to reach out to my current broker so they can transfer all of my positions to IBKR. How is this normal? The most rubbish customer service I have ever seen. If you dont help me asap I’m going to cancel my transfer request.
-
speculator (@speculator20221) reported@HalifaxDC @chessdunk @IBKR Yeah they will have to fix it. Let me know what they say if you don’t mind as to what’s happening.

-
Sabs Goranova (@sgoranova82) reported@IBKR It's nothing the problem page can solve. The ticket has already been lodged with your team, but this is not being resolved and frankly is a joke
-
Rich Pinks (@RichPinks) reportedJust keep $AMC above $1 until shorts crack, that's it, that's all you have to do. @IBKR showed me 11112.2 Bil shares traded volume today. The glitch better have my money, that's all I'm saying. ABOVE ONE DOLLAR. I like that discount, count me in. The Box Office will bring $$$$$$$

-
CT🪐 (@gercekci_V) reported@joemccann @IBKR @ibkr has a horrible user-interface, i decided to stop using it and pay premium extra cost elsewhere where user interface is much more friendly. call me stupid but I have seen zero improvement by ibkr in the last 7 years - they do not even try
-
QuantCat (@justquantcat) reported@IBKR please fix, I’ve been having it for months now
-
DC (@HalifaxDC) reported@speculator20221 @chessdunk @IBKR They apparently cancelled my order, and now it's saying I'm still short 150,000 Euros, but the problem is my base currency is USD and it won't let me switch it back. On hold with them on their "emergency number" lol. I'm going to assume that they have to fix it, in the end.
-
kevin@Crypto (@ngocquang19877) reported@brian_armstrong @IBKR fix your damn stock price for **** sake

-
Name Can't Be Blank (@BearBullDebate) reported@OddDiligence yes you should have had a bulletin alerting you to that. And yes the clowns at @ibkr said they'd fix it, didn't, and then said resolved.
-
Alex 👹 (@Alex_Steger_) reportedIf anyone happens to be having problems with the API on @IBKR after last night's TWS update to 10.43, go to file, change version, and stable and that fixes it IBKR is working on a fix but this is their short term solution
-
@levelsio (@levelsio) reported@scotttmorton @IBKR @louistheroux Oh got it Typical bad editing work by MSM journos

-
Pps831 (@Pps831) reported@joemccann @IBKR IBKR has pretty bad data imo. Even in their api they mention that it should not be relied upon or something like that.
-
Treize (@TreizeKushrena2) reported@assface_burner @IBKR $hood is a joke, won’t let you trade with unsettled funds when volatility is elevated like today. Ask me how I know lol. Its slow as hell, has terrible fills. IBKR fills instantly, clearly the superior brokerage

joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR My bid & ask spreads disappeared. I had to restart TWS to get them back. Then i was getting messages that I was under pdt and i wasn't alliwoded to trade. I am not uber pdt. Not even close to it. I shut down TWS & restarted. That resolved the issue.
-
Binay Jha (Chartered Accountant) (@binaycjha) reported@JacobMcGrew6 @IBKR Yes. It was a system issues which they are trying to resolve. But you need to call them and they need to reset all the accounts to make it work. After that you need to logout and login again.
-
Eugene (@Eugenet63824560) reported@IBKR Worst interface
-
Alex 👹 (@Alex_Steger_) reported@super509219312 @IBKR This is obviously a different level of concern and seems to show that they're not being careful about their updates. In the 7yrs of using them, most issues have been the annoying types, not mini heart attack types For me, if there's another major type of issue, then I'm moving
-
Bill Nickelson (@jellydonutcap) reported@IBKR deposit rules literally the worst in the game
-
Dr.Ötker 99%FI 💸 (@dr_otker) reportedLast night @IBKR systems glitched AGAIN and cancelled all my outstanding orders, 17 in total. I just spent more than half an hour resubmitting them thanks to a poor user interface and slow servers. This has happened before a few times and I believe will happen again. So could @IBKR at least offer a way to easily restore the cancelled orders?
-
