Ti Man (@Contrarian64) reported@IBKR >8 hours with @IBKR tech support, >20 ~"I am here to resolve..," all failed. Escalated on 6/4/25, am, no response [near 3 days]...escalated to next level, no response. Refuse any ETA of when to expect any response, much less resolution. #IBKR grade, F-, compared to 3 competitors.

Kingston (@kingstonstock85) reported@Trading42morrow @IBKR Kindly note the legends took 3 years, in average, to get there. With legendary mentors. Take it slow, don’t buy into the hype. Review, build a playbook. Put in the hours. Your buddy does 3 hours a day? You should do 9 etc. Also start small and have a plan to size up.

ioan todea (@ioantodea44) reported@IBKR The most complicated application I've ever tried. It's designed to annoy the customer, not help them.

Sriniwas (@s_sriniwas) reported@naval4you @thinkorswim @IBKR The CME exchange is having an issue at the moment. We are not seeing quotes on our platform or on two of our competitor platforms. We are awaiting word from the CME on what they are doing to fix this issue

Amir Ali (@amiraligoa) reported@IBKR Your customer support is impossible to get in touch with on chat and email, how can I invest with you if I can't contact you!Queries 1) do you have crypto -cardano, usdt, binance coin on your uk platform? 2) if so what are your fees to buy, hold and sell?

Amin (@eftegarie) reported@atc6955 @IBKR I wonder if it’s because I was born in Iran. That’s created issues for me before in banking.

-
William Bird (@WilliamBirdeau) reported@avinute @DEGIRO @IBKR Such a shame, they could have become a huge broker in Europe... I won't recommand them from now on, I have been a client for 6 years. I will probably sell my shares aswell if they keep going down this path
-
Orbit (@orbitcryptoai) reported@CryptoKaleo @etrade @IBKR hmmm a consumer app for options built with Orbit's MCP server could be interesting...
-
Susan HayesCulleton CFA (@SusanHayes_) reportedAt the live @IBKR #Earnings call, the CEO notes the customer service call time waiting is down to single digit minutes. He says they have the appropriate human capital there now for the size of the business helped with self-service and chatbots. #Automation

Ömer (@oy_twt) reported@frankyboyz_ofcl @IBKR I talked to IBKR support. What they told me is, TGE is tradable, however they haven’t migrated the BSII shares to TGE yet. They told me none of them has been migrated yet and the transition will be completed next business day.

PH (@PHamouni) reported@eftegarie @IBKR Yeah the user interface is not the best, i agree it seems intentionally hard to find . I had a problem with creating account early on, with the exact problem of finding the chat button. You should find it in contact us. Google how to find it. Once you go there it gets better :)
