    @IBKR one of very few platforms where you have USD not dumb and stupid and unsave $USDT! You are the best guys!

  • AlexeyBelorusov Alexey Belorusov (@AlexeyBelorusov) reported

  • James_Hawke1 James Hawke (@James_Hawke1) reported

    @IBKR What if markets are part of the problem?

  • CelovskyDanny Danny Celovsky (@CelovskyDanny) reported

    @IBKR Careful investors. At some point this investment will be worthless. A. It will kill us. $ mean nothing to dead people. OR B. People will finally wake up and it will stay in the ground. Bad investment. Stay away.

  • MohsinSMerza Mohsin Mirza (@MohsinSMerza) reported

    @IBKR iPhone app is so bad every week doesn’t give information about news and extra when you go to individual stock. That’s rediculious.

  • thiccgarlicc Captain (@thiccgarlicc) reported

    @IBKR The government is going to start taxing heavily on EVERYBODY. Government overspending and inefficient systems is the problem, not the wealthy people who have lead the way in their industry to help provide people with innovative goods and services so we can live better. #EatTheTax

    @IBKR I want to contact interactive brokers Ireland or any IB around the world but I found impossible to reach you . Please help me #interactivebrokers #interactivebrokersireland #nocustomservice

    @IBKR Not that you folks care about customer service and I know there will be NO response, but here goes: Running IBKR on a Mac. Today, it crashed over 7 times already. Average crash is 3 times/day. Yeah yeah yeah. We know that IBKR is NOT Monterey ready. But c'mon it is 2022 almost.

  • puppyeh1 Jeremy Raper (@puppyeh1) reported

    @dunbelievable @AutumnCapital @IBKR It’s not the commissions - those are fine. It’s the lack of customer service

  • micheldahdah Michel Dahdah (@micheldahdah) reported

    4/ For normal users, this means many hassles of moving funds around, a steeper learning curve, and terrible UX. Mass adoption of DeFi markets won’t happen until products are better than traditional brokerages like @IBKR or @TDAmeritrade

  • Ghol4m1 Ghol4m1 (@Ghol4m1) reported

    Bug in @IBKR app. When you enable faceid, it opens with all faces and also when you hold for the camera. Any others with the same issue ? This is on iPhone 12pro @SpacWarrants @gurgavin

  • RichAndFineMan RichAndFineMan (@RichAndFineMan) reported

    @IBKR what's happening? I'm not getting OTP to login to TWS. System down?

  • LyJameson Jama (@LyJameson) reported

    Why is @IBKR taking 9 minutes to send my login code for 2fa...?

  • wotwresearch Writing on the Wall (@wotwresearch) reported

    @TidefallCapital @IBKR The "he" here is the bad guy (and it probably is a bunch of he's). Not the best illustration for your point.

  • Coineru2 Stonk man (@Coineru2) reported

    @yoloforonce20 @degiroeu @IBKR I needed an execution only service and after 4 years of using DEGIRO, I’m pretty happy and satisfied. Apart from this fee increase. The IB pricing is difficult to follow. Need to understand how their £ to $ charges work for investing in US equities. I might switch if its worth it

  • TDarkCrucible TheDarkCrucible📊 (@TDarkCrucible) reported

    @IBKR Actually doesn't look like a half bad platform may consider it for future

  • MohsinSMerza Mohsin Mirza (@MohsinSMerza) reported

    @IBKR iPhone may bike app is so bad every week doesn’t give information about news and extra when you go to individual stock. That’s rediculious.

  • OdiousDebt It's Different this Time (@OdiousDebt) reported

    @IBKR If you want to buy Bitcoin, don't buy a stupid ETF. It is way easier to own really Bitcoin on a $70 private wallet. You hold custody of it, not a paper claim to Bitcoin which is usually cash-settled (think price suppression!). We should be way beyond this by now after 2008!

  • yoloforonce20 MrFacts (@yoloforonce20) reported

    @Coineru2 @degiroeu This is what happens when you use a bad broker. They already made some changes not so far ago. Constantly changing rules is bad for long term investors. @IBKR is 10X better if not more!

  • OdiousDebt It's Different this Time (@OdiousDebt) reported

    @IBKR If you want to buy Bitcoin, don't buy a stupid ETF. It is way easier to own real Bitcoin on a $70 private wallet. With this you hold custody, not a paper claim to Bitcoin which is usually cash-settled (eg gold price suppression!). We should be way beyond this by now after 2008!

    @TidefallCapital @IBKR I think it’s a completely valid point you make and a simple solution

  • TurdOfDestiny DerpMerchant👻 (@TurdOfDestiny) reported

    @IBKR man wtf yall need to commit self delete your getting replaced with a free engine by Community made tools are better anyway bye bye your a cancer to the investment game. I pay 7 cents to trade thousands ur outdated slow and a disease.

  • StockTrader40 StockTrader (@StockTrader40) reported

    @Stockminds009 Yes shame @IBKR has a trading restriction on it or I’d have loaded up first thing! I’d be a multi millionaire if @IBKR weren’t so stupid in placing random holds on tickers! E.g. $TSNP $RGBP! When you phone & ask why a stock is restricted nobody can tell you why! Helping MM’s out!

  • Grandmaster_E Grandmaster E (@Grandmaster_E) reported

    @degiroeu #degiro increases FX-fees by a jaw-dropping 1.250%!!! From a fee of € 10 + 0,02% to € 10 + 0,25%. DeGiro also charges me a lot for leaving. € 100,- per position for transfering my portfolio to @IBKR! Please help!

  • shocklord Berkshire Haddaway (@shocklord) reported

    @puppyeh1 @IBKR I have yet to see a brokerage that actually values the client relationship. They treat you bad as soon as you're on more than say a year, it seems they're only interested in new customers - not retaining them. Yes, looking at you @consorsbank
