Max the VC 👨🚀 (@mreiffy) reported@IBKR You guys legitimately have the worst ui/ux in the business. Not quite sure how it’s even possible given the opportunity before you
-
₿a ElenHODL (@BaElenhodl) reported@IBKR you want to margin call me without notifying me? On a recorded call you said you sent me a notification. I’m telling you I didn’t get one. Had I gotten one, I would have put more liquid in my account! **** you! I can’t win. Everyone wants my money! **** you
-
joe (@Yogithebearish) reported@IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Your software is such a pos. It is not sending the notification to my phone for me to login. I cannot access my account. I tried logging in with the QR code and it shows page not found. I need access to my account. You are just the software in the market. Total garbage
-
MilkyWay (@Olua_AO) reported@D3GSolutions @IBKR I hate their UX, terrible for trades
-
William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported@IBKR The worst ever cause ibkr never care about the needs of users. When everyone is requiring the removal of pdt, ibkr is holding action and deliberately preventing investors to be more flexible.
-
The Miladorlorian (@DiChiarissimo) reported@IBKR Do not ever use this ******* dogshit platform, not only will you not be able to trade anything, they lock your funds no matter the amount because obviously they got in trouble in thr past for money laudering because they are fat fuxking italian peices of ****, **** these people
-
Fyke Peony (@FykePeony) reported@IBKR 2/2, bc that needs SMS too. So I can't login, write a help ticket, fund my account bc of wrong SMS ( that's strange, bc I have updated my profile regularly. Try phoning, they say. Get a live agent. After a really long hold time I did get an agent but he could not 3/3
-
Jona (@JJLDoc) reported.@IBKR You guys are the worst. I set to sell my position with a limit and it passed that limit but no fill. I canceled it and made way lower limit but no sell. Tried many time with no fill. When the IV crashed I put a sell limit it got filled. So pathetic 🙄
-
@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
-
Painpal (@painpalcapital) reported@IBKR maybe fix your damn servers?
-
Peter Penny (@PeterCarli28957) reported@CoreyCicero @TT_stocks_ @IBKR IBKR worst broker I’ve ever had and it isn’t close
-
Joe Wyer (@joe365ppm) reported@IBKR Really need to work on the UI and also if the website is going to be so complicated you need to make accessing live support much less difficult
-
Joe Wyer (@joe365ppm) reportedI think @IBKR is the worst website interface and support experience I have ever had. That includes the DMV, gov tax website, etc.
-
thewalkingimmortal (@tyeatfood) reported@TT_stocks_ @D3GSolutions @IBKR Schwab isnt bad. but they dont really let the digital penny stocks too much.
-
cry diamond (@pear40853456) reported@yao_yao520 @IBKR same problem

DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported@IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???
-
William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported@IBKR A new week begins. When would you stupid team cancel pdt rules？
-
PhenixInvesting (@PhenixInvesting) reported@YYF171ttk @IBKR After couple hours we were able to get some orders filled then the system shutdown again for several hours This time it’s insane 30 hours in and no ETA time on fix
-
Rod Farva (@large_farva34) reported@IBKR Absolutely worst customer service experience of any company I have ever worked with by far. I hate you guys.
-
Biswayan Bhandari (@BiswayanBhanda1) reported@IBKR I can't open my IBKR account. It’s been inactive for 6 months and I've been trying to reopen it for the last 2 months. Why is the interface not user-friendly? I've also been contacting customer support for a month, but their responses aren't helpful...
-
Hits London (@HitsLondon) reported@cashflow_king94 @Trading212 @IBKR Only issue with IKBR is they won't accept partial ISA trsnsfers in. Has to be the full portfolio for any given year.
-
jpemberthy (@jpemberthy) reported@alexkingsays @AskRobinhood Rey. Same experience. I eventually moved everything to @IBKR and haven’t looked back. Brokerage for adults, and actual customer support when you need it.
-
Saptarshi Das, CFA (@saptarshi_tweet) reported@IBKR do you ever solve problems. When faced with a question your customer service reps just leave the chat room. Your tech does not work (docusign process, image upload on chat etc.) And your reps have no intention to solve anything.
-
TiltFolio (@TiltFolio) reported@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).
-
Long & Right (@Ramblin_Rebel13) reported@FredrikEJohans2 @IBKR @CFTC It eventually got corrected after several hours, had to test it every 15min. But never got a notification on why it happened or when it was supposed to be resolved. Submitted a complaint to the CFTC regardless, super unprofessional reckless
-
Javi Cg (@CJ02023589) reported@IBKR "‘Not urgency" must be your customer service mantra. It takes months just to handle a simple complaint.
-
GingerNinja (@GingerNinjaZA) reported@cashflow_king94 @Trading212 @IBKR Man, ours charges us like 1.275% , like wtf 😭 Need to move to IBKR
