Interactive Brokers Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • carry_anti AntiCarry (@carry_anti) reported

    @IBKR really poor customer service experience.

  • MannCul Cul’man (@MannCul) reported

    @calvinfroedge @IBKR That means asks had dried down. HFT put such trades because they are required to stay in the market at all times. There's simply no market and the order would be canceled after some time.

  • sumeetgjain Sumit Jain (@sumeetgjain) reported

    Any faced issue with @IBKR in extended hour trading today ? I got info that they don’t support extended hour trade orders.

  • Hogey_37 Matt Hogan (@Hogey_37) reported

    @IBKR your signup platform is awful. Sort it out 👎

  • Grainneuail Gabrielle Doyle (@Grainneuail) reported

    @LEAHCIM_P @jimcramer I want to say this again here. @IBKR would not allow me to buy a share. I had a cash account with sufficient settled cash. It takes two days minimum for trades to clear on the account. So crazy stuff went down

  • sumeetgjain Sumit Jain (@sumeetgjain) reported

    @IBKR Well, I was not able to execute orders yesterday when NSE was actually working .. And I tried to call ur support, for 54 min and not a single agent was free..

  • Phillip40529490 Phillip (@Phillip40529490) reported

    @TuckSantoro @IBKR Are they targetting certain accounts and removing trading permissions? How is there not a bigger uproar. This happens way to often... I can barely find mention of this error anywhere.

  • NicolasVanhove Nicolas Vanhove (@NicolasVanhove) reported

    @IBKR please answer my support emails - URGENT

  • ka67003684 M.S (@ka67003684) reported

    @IBKR Hello, I am a customer of your company, and unfortunately the mistakes of typing the password three times, how can i recover it

  • cmukesh Mukesh (@cmukesh) reported

    @IBKR Finally able to receive help after a long wait and quite a bit of luck. I think brokers should explore options for paid preferential support, more automated help, announcing queue position while waiting on call. #ibkr

  • raen97 Eran Peer (@raen97) reported

    @IBKR straight up stole 2000 euros I transferred them during the sign up process. They have promised, but failed over the last month, to refund me this money, and I have now been on hold with their "customer support" for two hours. So that's another cost they won't refund...

  • nonpareilgem Tanmay (@nonpareilgem) reported

    @IBKR @SEBI_India And whonis going to pay for the losses that your system has caused me on top the @NSEIndia glitch??

  • MrConde11 MrConde (@MrConde11) reported

    $GME contract not available for short selling, WTF @IBKR

  • hemalitanna Hemali Tanna (@hemalitanna) reported

    @IBKR Hi, I have an account in India but I want to open an account in Singapore as I have moved here. I cant contact your customer care numbers.

  • Phillip40529490 Phillip (@Phillip40529490) reported

    @IBKR You are currently logged in without Trading/Market Data permissions. Hi @IBKR I would like to unlock the feature to trade undeterred by this error. How much extra would it cost me? Willing to pay. Thanks.

    @IBKR Hello, I am a customer of your company, and unfortunately the mistakes of typing the password three times, please ask how to recover it

  • HuaiShi1 Huai Shi (@HuaiShi1) reported

    @IBKR @Tvitoje The system update says all good to go but I can’t even view my holdings or statistics on the app or the browser for almost 12 hrs. Customer service can’t even guarantee it’ll be back up during market hours. Are you kidding me

  • satan_dress Satan In A Blue Dress (@satan_dress) reported

    @IBKR I’ve been trying to cancel my account and get my money back for over a week now and not one person has acknowledged my issue and agreed to send the money back in my emails.

  • CafeNinga The Toilet Trader (@CafeNinga) reported

    @IBKR Do you have any idea that your customer service may be worse then TD Webbrokers. Ive been trying for 2 weeks to set up account no one picks up the ohone and when i select call backs i havent received 1 in 2 weeks so obviously that system doesnt work

  • aldawood99 Ali ALDawood (@aldawood99) reported

    @IBKR I can’t find $CWGYF in my TWS. Cloud you support me ?

  • noahweid Noah Weidner (@noahweid) reported

    @IBKR if you cover my $75 ACAT transfer fee and fix that tacky *** "7 day hold on funds" bullshit i will officially leave robinhood TOMORROW

  • Henny34125786 Asif iqbal (@Henny34125786) reported from Peterborough, England

    @IBKR Thank you for replying. It gives me great comfort after spending 3 hours on the phone without any response that someone is providing customer service. However im being told I don’t have permission to trade. Plz confirm I can trade stocks on the pink market. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

    @IBKR your support hold times really are dogshit.. would you HIRE ANYONE TO ANSWER THE DAMN PHONE!?!?!? EVER???

  • mz_nett117 Jeanette S (@mz_nett117) reported

    @IBKR your customer service needs help. I've been on hold for over and hour and for some reason I'm locked out of my account. This isn't a good way to start our business relationship.

  • CafeNinga The Toilet Trader (@CafeNinga) reported

    @IBKR ya they have awful customer service been on hold 2 weeks now everyday over an hour. Im done with them any other companies anyone knows of

  • AataMajhiSatkli AataMajhiSatkli (@AataMajhiSatkli) reported

  • NicolasVanhove Nicolas Vanhove (@NicolasVanhove) reported
