@hkuppy At least there is a chance of an audit, cause there is zero chance reaching any customer service at IB. The worst f*cking service. Cc: @ThomasPeterffy4 @IBKR

@IBKR you have the worst customer service in the world. Contacting you is impossible, as your website will give you an error every time I try to send you an email, while calling you is like waiting an answer from god. So far, I haven’t heard back from both of you.

@IBKR Ahh yes, the layout library! Amazing! We didn't want a platform that could plot a chart with a study and not freeze when zooming out... or a platform that didn't have to be shut down at least once a day because it was terrible at memory management... nah... we wanted the library!

@IBKR how do I speak with someone? Getting an error when trying to buy, despite best attempts I can’t resolve it myself.

Any @IBKR #TWS pros who can help me? Is there a possibility to do conditional #options orders based on the stock price? And if so how? Like selling the option when #stock hits price target

@IBKR your TWS for windows has gone frustratingly slow. It hangs so much especially since the last week update. I suffered losses because TWS froze. It's pissing me off. I've tried more than required memory allocation. Every other application on my computer runs perfectly smooth.

Love the @IBKR platform, but HATE the customer service. As usual, I get a representative on the phone and they have NO clue whatsoever.

@IBKR Dear IB, it's been 6 months and you still haven't completed a transfer of one of my accounts that you initiated. Oh, and since it is in a "transition" status for that time, it is effectevely blocked and I still can't trade with it. Please FIX CLIENT SERVICES!

@IBKR I have been trying to contact any one in customer service to follow up on a transferred amount to my account for over 3 months now! I sent dozens of emails without any reply! No one is replying! I transferred money and it's not showing! What do you suggest?

@IBKR so it seems as I am in a stuck, contacted your support about identity proof of the account. They sent back the response to my message center that I don't have access to for some reason? I cant reply nor read the answer. Can you guide me further since I cant do anything atm?

@AdlinLing @IBKR My broker is notoriously bad at never having shares available to short. So frustrating to see a great setup, then get shut down

@IBKR Good. Maybe I’ll try and get one, so that finally, when I try to withdraw, I won’t be getting an error from your app.

@IBKR: Also, we’re not going to alert you there’s a problem. The money just won’t be there and you’ll have to figure it out for yourself.
