RemGat (@RicardoMGarcia5) reportedBeware that if you run into a problem at @IBKR you may find yourself completely abandoned. I have a claim open for 5 months now for a dividend they did not process, now I have posted a claim for the lack of response, nobody is responding to any of those. Horrible service!

The_Astronaut (@The_Astronaut18) reportedI want to like Interactive Brokers, I really do. Excellent rates on cash/margin. Theoretically, they should be a top broker, but they need to purge and replace their engineering department. Login issues today, poor site performance most other days. You had one job. @IBKR

BullDriven (@BullDriven) reported@IBKR I have... they claimed they are waiting on finra regulatory notice but that is incorrect. That notice was issued 4/20/26 showing effective date 6/4/26. Other brokers are moving quick on this and your web ticket reps are uninformed. Many are waiting on this information. Pls help

L5 (@apexminibot) reported@aleabitoreddit @labubu_trader @IBKR I totally concur that #IBKR UI is trash, also the response time for navigating and waiting for things to load is just intolerable. Please upgrade the infra and spend some money to fix!

Kirk Hartley (@kirklsp) reportedI'm a client of both Chase and Interactive Brokers. Does anyone at @Chase know why Requests for Payment I initiate from @IBKR do not show up for approval on Chase's website or your app? I've wasted well over 60 minutes talking to your help line and they have no clue. Thank you.

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.
-
Binay Jha (Chartered Accountant) (@binaycjha) reported@JacobMcGrew6 @IBKR Yes. It was a system issues which they are trying to resolve. But you need to call them and they need to reset all the accounts to make it work. After that you need to logout and login again.
