@IBKR so annoying that I have to deal with bots to get so-called customer service. Is there a human out there that can tell me why I can’t buy stocks after I sold others?

@david_katunaric Don’t forget all the warnings wen you actually want to put in a trade. Several brokers act more like kindergarten teachers or police officers than customer oriented businesses. Unbearable customer service @IBKR

@TeslaBoomerMama @IBKR It's not uncommon in all brokerage firms sadly and is part of how they fund business and offer reduced commissions. Even if you have a cash account or aren't enrolled in the stock yield program the firm can lend out shares from their pool of $TSLA holdings. Ordinarily this has little impact on the customer, dividend paying stocks will stay pay you the equivalent dividend amount etc, but if the broker doesn't have all of the stock registered at the DTC with their street address on the cutoff date then all clients will take a percentage share hit on their voting rights.

Which broker is most annoying / patronizing? @IBKR Just allow your customers to buy divvie-paying HK stocks, IB. Your customers keep on reaching out to me to complain about you.

@IBKR Hello, you need to fix your email. I have gotten multiple "Reminder to Think Before You Click!" emails. Look, I'm not dumb, I don't fall for phishing, there is no reason to constantly email this. I got one on Aug 31, then Sep 7, then Sep 14, then Sep 21, now today. Stop.

@IBKR This demonstrates a monumentally simplistic view on forecasting of any type. It is so bad that I question your product.

@TeslaBoomerMama @IBKR If I see all this trouble with brokers, then I'm happily surprised that the voting process went smoothly with eToro. I'm in the Netherlands and specifically stayed away from banks or DeGiro because I'd heard of this during my pre-investing research. eToro sent me the email as planned on the first day voting was possible and it took less than a minute to vote. I realize there are other issues concerning eToro but to be honest for investors in Europe like myself they have proven quite stable and secure.
