    @IBKR Lesson in crisis management: come clean honestly and be truly remorseful. You guys have failed in both front: failed to communicate when problems first happened and now then lied about the resolution.

    @IBKR This is very bad. Why didn't you notify users at least by email? Why is there no information about the crash anywhere? Neither in the mobile app, nor in TWS? Why should I search for information about your breakdowns on Twitter?
