@IBKR I am unable to sell GME on @Trading212. They have quoted that their intermediary is experiencing difficulties transmitting orders. Can you shed any light on this please and an ETA for a fix. Thanks

@mrkylefield @IBKR Good question. Strangely, #IBKR supports several completely different trading platforms. One, their Trader Workstation is a java-application that they support on multiple platforms. That one has good response times and server connections also on a day like this.

@IBKR You guys are the worst! Still cant trade $GME! To anyone reading this DO NOT use this brokerage. If u had a $GME position u wouldn't be able to exit it today with @IB. You'd be at the mercy of the market like so many of us. Use a different brokerage, you'll thank me later.

@IBKR IF you want to lose alot of users, just do something stupid with GME and AMC orders. This is supply and demand!

@HedgeyeDDale In terms of execution and access to various markets/products Interactive Brokers @IBKR is hard to beat, but their customer service and support is abysmal. Also, like many other platforms they are having serious "issues" today, trades not executing, not able to log in, etc.

All the brokers that purposefully blocked legitimate trades on $AMC and $GME are in for legal trouble. And lots of pissed customers. Will there be an exodus to @IBKR? No platform issues, though not as user-friendly. Long $IBKR could be an interesting play too.

@IBKR Why are you refusing to process GME buy/sell orders on behalf of Trading 212? I'm sure you're not doing a favour for your MM friends, but it does seem an awful lot like that. Be a shame if word were to get out about this and the reputation of your firm came crashing down..

@RodAlzmann @CharlesSchwab @IBKR Schwab made a "coding" error on my positions that showed my cash balance as negative. A similar two-hour wait to resolve. Inexcusable incompetence. As soon as I have reached a solid transition point I'm also moving over to IBKR.

When dumping short reports and getting bailed out isn't enough, Wall Street uses retail brokerages to slow down buying on the stock. @TDAmeritrade, @CharlesSchwab, @IBKR all blocking orders on $GME and other stocks to help the shorts recover.

@IBKR Why are you refusing to process Gamestop orders, why are you not even acknowledging you are causing these problems?

@fibercut @IBKR Apparently brokers colluded to restrict orders on GME. They want to slow down retail buyers like us from from putting orders through.

@crypto29140588 @IBKR I was on hold for over 45 mins. Couldn't reach live chat either. I'm stuck in $GME, can't put orders in and can't reach support. Its surreal how bad the service is here. I just hope ppl reading this don't use @IBKR and avoid the mess we are all in.

@TD_DirectInvest Is great until you need any customer service. You'll then lose a half day to their bullshit and spend another day moving all your **** to @IBKR

@IBKR What's with the radio silence? No updates on main page or system status page. Customer service line is unreachable. I guess it's time to short IBKR stock if this is how you handle your customers. #IBKR #customersupport
