@IBKR I'm sorry but the Portal is very unstable... - trade permissions keeps disconnecting then takes forever to reconnect - valid symbols charts do not load and show "invalid symbol" - account pages completely freeze rendomly Broswer cache is clean, your side is problematic...

It took me 42 minutes to get @ibkr trade desk on the phone. Orders ended up going through right before I talked to them. #ibkr Still have to wait for an official bulletin saying the issue is fixed for good though.

Already. I love @IBKR so much more than @WebullGlobal and @CharlesSchwab . No question. The only broker i know that ACTUALLY does 24/7 customer service. I would rather call someone in mumbai and repeat something a couple times, b able to take care of account issues BEFORE open.

@IBKR Rep telling me they’re not liable for my platform not executing my market close position and that it’s my duty to call the trade desk as it’s a “timely issue” yet I was on hold for over 30min while my position burned..

@brajk95 It happened to me too. Right now I’m with customer service. The guy said I can’t help you right now. It’s the system. WTF was that?. I told him to transfer me in the trading department. I’m currently down with my option trade. @IBKR

@IBKR Do you guys have any idea how clunky your system is? I was trying to open an account but your system is too stupid to let me upload my license. If you can't do simple things right, how could I trust you as a broker? I am done wasting another minute of my time here.
