  • Kenaschmidt Ken (@Kenaschmidt) reported

    @IBKR Can't load charts on half my symbols in TWS pro - "attempting to retrieve data" never goes away. Restart doesn't help. What are you guys doing over there??

  • ruchernchong Ru Chern Chong (@ruchernchong) reported

    @UpsideForever @IBKR My isn’t a chart or trade problem. I wish to transfer my account from one entity to the other entity. Already raised the ticket the day before (>24 hours) but it is still pending.

  • BobChapin22 Robert Chapin (@BobChapin22) reported

    @IBKR When you guys are having issues like you are having this morning, would you please update your system status page!!!!!! It is ridiculous that you don't do that. Losing patience with your server, long time customer.

  • PhilParsonage Phil Parsonage (@PhilParsonage) reported

    Seriously @IBKR - you HAVE to sort out this "attempting to retrieve data" issue which has been going on for weeks. This is ridiculous. Trying to trade blind here. Fix this issue or lose your customers.

  • hemalitanna Hemali Tanna (@hemalitanna) reported

    @IBKR Hi, I just opened an account and account is approved, but I cannot trade or even log in to my mobile app. It keeps giving username/password error even though I am entering everything correctly. Please help. The Singapore customer care call line doesnt work.

  • KumoMonkey Kumo Monkey (@KumoMonkey) reported

    Hey! Look! @IBKR's market data is failing once again, on the most critical moments. Brilliant broker... To dump and get out of immediately. Why would I pay for Pro these days with such a bad service?

  • KumoMonkey Kumo Monkey (@KumoMonkey) reported

    @IBKR Fix your market data. Can I please look at charts? Thanks. 90s software...

  • CraigDu62835353 Craig Duncan (@CraigDu62835353) reported

    @IBKR Can you sort out your customer service. Please tell your UK customers when they can expect to see CBX Primary bid shares in their account. We are sitting on the sidelines losing money here. I've been on at you all day on chat and the phone and you can't give me an answer

  • UpsideForever Up·side Forever (@UpsideForever) reported

    @johnny310X @IBKR Damn bruh I feel your pain

  • cyrilpro4 cyril pro (@cyrilpro4) reported

    @IBKR Your customer service is down and we can’t talk to your customer service via your phone customer service or via your live chat bot. How can we contact you?? I tried calling the number in the US, in Canada, in EU... what is happening??

  • MS34098687 MS (@MS34098687) reported

    @IBKR The issue resolved itself inside 15 minutes - hopefully an isolated incident

  • ruchernchong Ru Chern Chong (@ruchernchong) reported

    @IBKR support must be so busy today that the waiting time is insane.

  • _Trend_Watcher End of Trend Watcher (@_Trend_Watcher) reported

    @IBKR TWS charts are down, why don't you update system status and fix it?

  • XS_HeadHunting XS Head Hunting (@XS_HeadHunting) reported

    @ruchernchong @IBKR Ru if they fix it before the weekend dinner is on me next time I am in Singapore.

  • MGrunhaus Moshe Grunhaus (@MGrunhaus) reported

    @IBKR @IBRK #IBRK the charts only work 1/2 the time, the costumer service is hours away, limited short availability...time to find a new broker.... #exitibrk.

  • AJKTrader Arty Joseph (@AJKTrader) reported

    @XS_HeadHunting @pigeon_cap @IBKR yikes... I'm also having issues with the application - I may just eat the fees and stick with ThinkorSwim

  • MariaIyJesusJ María Ibáñez Goicoechea y Jesús Jiménez Cascallana (@MariaIyJesusJ) reported

    @IBKR Since one week ago I am trying to contact IB about a withdrawal of money that it must be done "promptly", like you explain in your web. By phone (several numbers), by mail, by web... but nobody answer. Please send me a message about how to contact anybody to solve this problem.

  • Moha_bin_A Mohammad (@Moha_bin_A) reported

    @IBKR my account is still underway and I can’t trade from 1 month Could you please tell me how to fix this issue?
