  Adam Voulstaker (@AdamVoulstaker) reported 5 minutes ago

  @ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Worst is anything automation. They are lunatics with that front

• 
  TJ Brush (@xicbassix) reported 5 minutes ago

  @IBKR Your ticket response was awful. It was just a bot message that provided no assistance. I have now been subject to PDT blackout rules for seven business days. This is ridiculous.

  @IBKR what a painful experience is to use Interactive Brokers. Avoid it at all means. The server doesnt work or it is very slow way to often.

  @solana @calilyliu Tokenized. Cool. @IBKR has it too - regulated, insured, no seed phrase (to loose). Liquidity on Nasdaq ≈ no problem

  @D3GSolutions @IBKR It takes me less than 1-minute to login to E*TRADE no matter the platform.

  @ross_w__ @IBKR I’m stuck on that **** show !! Currently down 500k and counting **** I wish I thought about using Kosdaq as an hedge to flatten out when they failed to take my orders yesterday night

  Hey @IBKR how can you be so good at executions and soooooo bad at pretty much everything else?

  @CoreyCicero @TT_stocks_ @IBKR IBKR worst broker I’ve ever had and it isn’t close

  Hello @IBKR Can you explain what caused that issue? That problem is still where I made a deposit usdc today, but the amount is hold for a day

• 
  James Sun (@LSKMSun) reported 29 minutes ago

  @IBKR you need to improve your services!!! Reaction is slow today!!!!

  @ALBACapMgmt @IBKR Hi I don’t know anything about IBKR…But I have found this comment from Gemini pro 3.1. It might help, who knows: “If all else fails, many traders create a dedicated "Custom View" in the Option Chain (gear icon -> *Settings* -> *Column Management* -> *Custom Views*)

  Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported 34 minutes ago

  @Reetard_ @IBKR Their mobile app. It's just clunky and slow and lags.

• 
  The Titan Traders (@TT_stocks_) reported 35 minutes ago

  @D3GSolutions @IBKR Worst customer service in history I’m not joking. Took them (6) months to reach out to me about my inquiry about a simple rebate on my $371,000 in commissions I spent. At the end of it all they said there is nothing they can do. ******* worthless

  Shraey (@iamshraey_) reported 40 minutes ago

  @IBKR I did that and out of frustration I have written here as they are asking to use my passport when passport is not in one of the options offered for Australia clearly documented in the ticket and screenshot I submitted. They only offer Australian drivers license and then on submission call id type invalid. The tech team on a call just mentions to try again rather than solving the issue and a musical chair game is going on between support and tech folks.

  @grok @IBKR Truthifi has very limited hardcaps and other problems and doesn’t do much.

• 
  RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported 41 minutes ago

  @IBKR Thanks but this doesn't and won't work. I don't have my account info so when I call, it rejects me. Why is there no way to fix this I have money in my account but I can't access it

  William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported 43 minutes ago

  @IBKR A new week begins. When would you stupid team cancel pdt rules？

• 
  kingran (@KingranYama) reported 44 minutes ago

  The AI customer support agents give you useless canned information. These AI agents do not understand the nuances of the qst, which is okay, but refusing to pass the qst to human agents in not okay. @IBKR I pay you guys serious money in commission. Can I get some help?

• 
  froyomofo (@froyomofo1) reported 46 minutes ago

  @IBKR I put a ticket in FOUR DAYS AGO and still nothing back. Why ******** should I keep using a platform where I can’t get an answer to a question in a reasonable amount of time?!

• 
  Ramy Gerges (@ramyggerges) reported 47 minutes ago

  @IBKR customer support is abysmal.

• 
  Biswayan Bhandari (@BiswayanBhanda1) reported 47 minutes ago

  @IBKR I can't open my IBKR account. It’s been inactive for 6 months and I've been trying to reopen it for the last 2 months. Why is the interface not user-friendly? I've also been contacting customer support for a month, but their responses aren't helpful...

  @defyneric i think its only because they issue cards to @IBKR clients. But not sure that if those volumes reflect here. but highly possible!

  @Fidelity having problems two mornings in a row. Time to start shuffling money to @IBKR

• 
  The Titan Traders (@TT_stocks_) reported 58 minutes ago

  @D3GSolutions @IBKR Incredible there isn’t a good broker to use in 2026. TD Ameritrade was hands down the best but it’s gone now and nothing even compares now. Pathetic

  @_charles289 @IBKR no problems.

  DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported 1 hour ago

  @IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???

  @IBKR I want to use my own models running on my own hardware. Please provide an MCP server or something other models can connect to
