Wanda Case (@WandaCase9l) reported@zxc68984008 @IBKR Trust is less about slogans than execution: custody, disclosures, uptime, and how problems are handled when markets are stressed.
-
Oded Tamir (@tamir_oded) reported@IBKR It takes more than 10 days to open account in Israel and still waiting . This is level of service of the 80'.
-
Dan Elton (@moreisdifferent) reported@NotA_Bull you guys have been posting so much FUD all weekend I opened up @GodelTerminal and @IBKR expecting a slaughterhouse scene, and ... it's not that bad? And the $VIX is still relatively low at 15.27
-
Mini Trades (@theminitrades) reported@IBKR can you please fix your systems? Gosh it's market open and not being able to login to manage our trades is costing us.
-
MW (@mw_invests444) reported@Therichardralph @IBKR The interface isn't great not unlike IBKR but you seem ok with it. Decent control as you have with IBKR, selling lots, in app charts. Execution is good. Fx is currently 0.49% so that is a drawback and too high for me. There is a dumbed down app for basic use.
-
@Lionessxxxx (@Lionessxxxx1969) reported@IBKR Totally irrelevant **** advert authorised by Google. Muted, blocked, dislikes reported as Spam & Google still put in on my timeline. The advertiser & Google can **** off for spam scamming me
-
Thomasius (@TH0MA51U5) reported@IBKR Your support is TRASH! I already sent about 5 requests weeks, some month ago. Still no answer. I dont think I will ever get one. And there is no other way to resolve my issues with IBKR. So there is no solution for my problems, while IBKR stock is skyrocketing. Shame on you!

Mehtab | Karta Ventures (@MehtabKarta) reportedThis morning, Interactive Brokers support emailed me saying I executed a huge FX trade... Obviously, I was freaked out! So I called institutional support and they said the support agent that emailed me was incorrect. Thanks for the heart attack @IBKR!

Limpidish (@Imz_isNoGood) reported@IBKR the worst investment platform I’ve ever dealt with! Random rules that forcibly convert currencies, AI shoved down my throat even when I clearly said it was not helping and I needed someone to look into my issue! So yeah, taking my business somewhere else.
-
Axl Rufi (@AxlRufi) reported@IBKR @Paysafe your ******* machine not working
-
Natalka (@NataliiaKoval) reported@IBKR Phone support in 2026? I’m constantly traveling and changing phone numbers to the country I’m visiting. I don’t have a permanent phone number. That’s why I can’t login as you blocked the possibility to change phone numbers.
-
Said Suleimanov (@suleimanov50905) reported@monad @IBKR Monad has so much bullish news, and I don't care about the price. I don't understand why. Mon is falling in price again. What's the problem, dear Monad, why so! Can't you raise the price of Mon
