-
Mr. Dustan (@mr_dustan) reported@IBKR The url on your profile is broken!
-
super (@super509219312) reported@one_foothurdle @IBKR Happened to me too. Multiple orders got canceled. They said it was a technical issue on their end. But it it rather alarming, given that their support is hardly reachable. When situations like this happen, you need support more easily available to deal with it.

π’π¦π©π¦π°π±π―ππ’π’ (@iB3Bestpony1985) reported@IBKR hi, I have a disability support pension and I would like to do trading through you but your platform makes it near impossible and I would hate to think I would have to report you to the a Triple C for discrimination due to income. Perhaps we can work something out
-
mindfultrader (@mindfultrader22) reported@IBKR your platform went down in the middle of trades and cancelled orders, resulting into loss of profit. You guys didn't even give an update. Haven't been able to place orders since more than an hour. PLEASE PROVIDE AN UPDATE #futures #trading #ibkr
-
Cluseau Investments (@blondesnmoney) reportedEver since IBKR made the font slightly more green the market has gone to ****. @IBKR please fix this.
-
Carl Malartre (@Malartre) reportedEveryday I resent @IBKR's desktop app team using Java for the UI. It's great for them and terrible for all users. From the login to maximizing the app to the slowest column reorder in the world, it all sucks.
-
Korban (@AwokenApollyon) reported@rfcapital2 @etrade Itβs been broken for literally ******* weeks. Iβm about to move my money to @IBKR
-
Weeble Rothschild (@noruserious) reported@IBKR @IBKR why on god's green earth would you have YOUR "Technical Assistance" PHONE HELP based out of a country (Im guessing India) where an English speaking client of YOURS can't understand your Indian employee because their accent is so incredibly thick? WHY? #garbage
-
Priom.eth (@0xPriom) reported@joemccann @IBKR You are doing godβs work! Ibkr probably has one of the worst apis
-
Milo (@coincarver) reportedIs Interactive brokers down? What is this garbage exchange? HELLO? @IBKR
-
πΈπππ π₯πππππ¦ (@AlgoSnafu) reportedIs anyone else experiencing an issue in IBKR TWS where alert lines stop appearing on charts, even though the alerts are still active in the alerts window? Iβve been dealing with this issue for years now ... π’ @IBKR
-
AngryPhysicist, PhD. (@Drcamole) reported@IBKR Hello @ibkr ... I have a new phone and a new phone number. It has been impossible to speak to anyone due to the lack of IB key and I have tried live chat, email, phonecall, and feedback report, but nothing works. How do I get in touch with someone regarding this. Please help!!!!
-
Rich Pinks (@RichPinks) reportedJust keep $AMC above $1 until shorts crack, that's it, that's all you have to do. @IBKR showed me 11112.2 Bil shares traded volume today. The glitch better have my money, that's all I'm saying. ABOVE ONE DOLLAR. I like that discount, count me in. The Box Office will bring $$$$$$$
-
Jinuuku (@Jinuuku121844) reported@IBKR My application U24947179 has been stuck since March 25. Promised same-day resolution, got nothing. Now I'm 403'd from Live Chat so I can't even reach support. No ETA, no update. What's going on?
-
DC (@HalifaxDC) reported@speculator20221 @chessdunk @IBKR They apparently cancelled my order, and now it's saying I'm still short 150,000 Euros, but the problem is my base currency is USD and it won't let me switch it back. On hold with them on their "emergency number" lol. I'm going to assume that they have to fix it, in the end.
-
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.
-
π °οΈLBπ °οΈ (@ALBACapMgmt) reported@l1quid1ty @IBKR but yeh i get your point...its an exchange issue whoever that exchange may be. Clearly this isnt the case with otc stuff like fx which is obviously their issue.
-
C pyles (@Cpyles42) reported@IBKR Is there a problem with your trading platform? Just lost ability to trade futures! No one answering phone or chat.
-
PennyRekt (@PennyRekt) reported@ChrisGoda @mtrad203 @IBKR I'm getting same error
-
Anssi Alkio (@Anssi_A) reported@simpelspekulant @IBKR Well, Nordea is the "quality" dividend name. Probably of the top banks companies in the world. Not cheap. UPM is interesting for their "hidden" energy holdings. Anora if you believe booze demand will rebound. Saga Furs for deep value play. Many names paying about 4-5%.
-
Cypher3d (@RealityCypher) reported@IBKR has the worst customer support I've seen for any product/service I've ever used in my entire life. It's honestly breathtaking...
-
(((Marise Hausner))) (@olimassociates) reportedStay away from @IBKR. Poor customer service. Even poorer IT dept. No to little concern for clients. No excuse for this level of incompetence.
-
JT Gert (@the1Gert) reported@JosephW31117119 @senzu_capital @IBKR same issue
-
0xW π (@0xWwwwwwww) reported@stoneymonster @TradingThomas3 Cause IBKR is ****. They know their data is wrong (for the past 15+ years), and they don't give a damn. @IBKR
-
QuantCat (@justquantcat) reported@IBKR please fix, Iβve been having it for months now
-
AngryPhysicist, PhD. (@Drcamole) reported@IBKR To issue a web ticket, I need to sign in, but my issue to start with is related to my inability to sign in. Possible to PM me and provide me some contact information in the form of an email or phone number to call that provides me a human to speak to who can verify me.
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon So frustrated with your service. It is just the worst. Good luck finding customer support. Absolutely ridiculous.
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR My bid & ask spreads disappeared. I had to restart TWS to get them back. Then i was getting messages that I was under pdt and i wasn't alliwoded to trade. I am not uber pdt. Not even close to it. I shut down TWS & restarted. That resolved the issue.
-
Agent Smith (@AiStockAgent) reported@BloomDemark @IBKR I tried. It says I donβt have trading permission. Customer service taking forever to pick up
-
Wolf B. Boehme (@WolfBBoehme) reported@IBKR I don't need your advice. Just fix your technology.
