  @IBKR I put a ticket in FOUR DAYS AGO and still nothing back. Why ******** should I keep using a platform where I can’t get an answer to a question in a reasonable amount of time?!

  @JoachimMo1985 @IBKR I'm not sure about issues at IBKR specifically, but having worked for a few brokers, I can tell you that the tech department usually comes third or fourth in priority. These organizations are typically led by marketing, followed by corporate roles (risk management, strategy).

  @SquawkStreet @IBKR It's impossible to contact IBXR support: 1(877)442-2757, it doesn't work. I can only hope that the issue they fabricated to keep my $3464.85 cash will be returned to me someday. U25159972

  @IBKR The system is completely down and we can't trade! The downtime is causing real financial losses. How will IBKR compensate affected users for this outage? Please address this immediately! 🤬😤😤😤😤😤

  @ebbe77 @IBKR I was about to withdraw $3464.85 in cash to transfer to my bank, and after waiting a month, they suddenly invented an issue to keep my money for a while. This is a scam.U25159972

  @defyneric i think its only because they issue cards to @IBKR clients. But not sure that if those volumes reflect here. but highly possible!
