Leo GNK (@GnkLeo17852) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Hello, I am having trouble accessing my Interactive Brokers account. I recently deleted the authenticator from my Microsoft Authenticator app, and now I cannot log in because I no longer have access to the security code. Could you please help me recover my account and reset my

Cashflow King (@cashflow_king94) reportedJust over a year since I switched to @IBKR and went all in on growth stocks... Portfolio is ahead of the S&P 500 by $23,273. That's 11.72% outperformance. Ahead of the NASDAQ 100 by $9,283. 4.37% outperformance. Beating both major indices with 9 stocks and a system. A year ago people told me I was mad... Too concentrated, too risky - Should just buy an index fund and forget about it. Well the index fund would have made me $23k less. That's a car, That's a holiday, That's months of deposits into the portfolio. I'm doing it with fewer stocks, less complexity, Less stress. Quality companies the world can't function without... I'm not Against Index funds but most people think single stocks are risky.... Mixture of both would work well for majority of people in my opinion. Sometimes the "risky" approach is actually the smart one. How's your portfolio doing??

musictalklistenerohio✂️ (@ilisteninnwohio) reported@renatodelarento @Trading212 @IBKR IBKR: interesting info. But 4me, I can't digest all the incoming on the investment front for myself. That's why I'm willing to pay someone (they get a cut of my investment) who is more trained than myself. My training: fight fires, b a paramedic, fix auto body's, & not worry.

Pranesh Ganesh (@gpranesh) reported@IBKR I have trouble logging in as no SMS is being received. Is there an ongoing outage?
-
BatCAt (@BatcatCA) reported@IBKR guys, you send out warnings about phishing attacks on IBKR accounts, but then also send out a mail about annual verification *WITH A LINK INCLUDED IN THE MAIL*. Come on. Stop including links in your official mails. Just tell us what to expect when we login. Not hard.

SOBR (@SOBRBC) reported@IBKR_Europe Fix your desktop software installer for linux please @IBKR

Kirk Hartley (@kirklsp) reportedI'm a client of both Chase and Interactive Brokers. Does anyone at @Chase know why Requests for Payment I initiate from @IBKR do not show up for approval on Chase's website or your app? I've wasted well over 60 minutes talking to your help line and they have no clue. Thank you.

Jamie Fortie (@FortieJami77198) reported@IBKR hey yo, settled DRS transfer not received after 10 business days, ticket system unresponsive. Phone call got hung up, all tickets are AI, no customer service. Like WTF, guys stay a mile from this broker if you can

Priom.eth (@0xPriom) reported@joemccann @IBKR You are doing god’s work! Ibkr probably has one of the worst apis
-
ELhuron DasWiesel (@ElhuronD33244) reportedHey @IBKR ! Why is it that your stock newsfeed in the individual tickers is so bad? It shows completely irrelevant information 95% of the time. And if it's relevant judging from the headline it doesnt work half the time when you click on it. This is really annoying.
-
EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported@belfort0609 @buyerofponzi @IBKR I'm hearing this is an increasing problem. You will be better off elsewhere .. IBKR went from a top tier broker to a bottom tier real fast as far as I'm concerned.

alanxyz (@alanxyz129) reportedInteractive Brokers seems to have lost my deposit. They already had my bank details and names but the customer services insist on asking me to provide proof of transfer again, otherwise they won't look into it. Is it strange? @IBKR @IBKR_Europe

Mark Bratt 🔻🔻🔻 (@MarkBratt924939) reported@Prometheus2025 @IBKR I don’t, but if I were a ****** capitalist I would own physical goods such as property, precious metal, guns, non taxable physical coin collection. Paper is coming to an end and US Tbonds are going down to CIPS and destruction of the petrodollar.

The 'investor' (@Pikachu21M) reported@IBKR If I chose a timeframe on the chart, 1 month, 1 year, 5 years, I should see the percentage of progression during this period. Your stays fix on the daily percentage. It’s not a bug but your choice grok said
-
Manny (@theverysmartone) reported@dontbsalti @IBKR @whop Whop is the worst platform ever, they truly don't care about the customers at all, they are all about the commissions they get from the course sellers.
-
Sourav Kolay (@ksrv_k) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon @IBKR very bad experience! My profile access was restricted without any explanations. Contacted customer support multiple times without any response. Totally unethical practice by IBKR!

Ethan Hartwell (@EthanTrades13) reported@IBKR @Darwinexchange ????? Both of you are telling me to contact the other. This is a service provided directly through your company with each other. Can someone please assist me ?
-
Bitget Support (@BitgetSupport) reported@yedior @GracyBitget @IBKR Please elaborate further on your concern or you may send us a direct message to properly address the issue.
-
RemGat (@RicardoMGarcia5) reportedBeware that if you run into a problem at @IBKR you may find yourself completely abandoned. I have a claim open for 5 months now for a dividend they did not process, now I have posted a claim for the lack of response, nobody is responding to any of those. Horrible service!
-
sroy (@roy34340023) reported@IBKR Your India ops is a complete circus. The simulation is a joke, your customer service is clueless. Zero faith in doing any trades thru you.
-
FrontRowBrian™ 🇺🇸 ₿ (@FrontRowBrian) reported@Cernovich and if you're going to borrow against your securites, use the right broker. @IBKR has *half* the rates of some higher profile brokerages and most equites require only 25% margin maintenance. Same equity on ETRADE or the like is 50% or even 100%.
-
Vj (@VJ_303) reported@IBKR Not able to find any customer care contact number for Qatar, number of on website not working, Chat support is **** show with autobots...there is no way for communication with #ibkr how we should trust you if we can't communicate with you?
