    what is your feeling about IB

    Lobster: Good point. :-) I really believe they wouldn't have to assume because they can tell which order would have filled (none would have filled at 5:03) and which was live (the last; 9469) and that it would have filled later in the day. I don't like that they pretended they couldn't tell...

    LOL! I like that. It was probably a month ago that I posted a neg review of their CS, a review I can't seem to find, by the way, when def wrote me requesting names and details and offering to help. Just as he first told you, in this thread, he told me, not to expect to talk to a manager, but...

    what is your feeling about IB

    I've been on a search for a new Futures trading firm. I'm looking for recommendations to explore, so I'd be interested in knowing which you feel are better. Feel free to PM me rather than post the names, if you prefer. Thanks!

    what is your feeling about IB

    If you practiced some of that self proclaimed spirituality, you'd know that you have not been and would never be accused of being a paid shill for IB. I know you well enough to know you are not, and you know me well enough to know that I would not think that of you. Also, no one asked you or...

    Understanding IB

    I wasn't wrong, though your old guy might have been. I was correct. You talk but your reading comprehension needs a little work. They admitted I was right. Then they lied. They would have saved me tens of thousands in commissions alone, absolutely. I couldn't risk letting them steal...

    Understanding IB

    Don't be silly. There were no losses on that trade. I have been trying to get my money out of IB and of course, to go to another broker. It's not that easy. They have rules that require even with cash deposits, they will not let you get your money back for ten business days. As for whether IB...

    I have been looking for the review I first posted when I first was opening the IB account. I don't find it. If you have a link, that would help me find it.

    Understanding IB

    Ah, but the part you don't realize is that the price that was active at the time, the last price I sent through, long before the fill took place, could not have been filled. That price wasn't met for hours! Not till hours after they filled the earlier price. No matter how the orders stacked...

    Understanding IB

    You're misrepresenting, DEF. I posted the entire correspondence in another thread. NOTHING was taken out of context. A fair review reveals that my emails were concise and polite until you sent me a blatant lie. You told me, quoting the CS rep, that it was impossible to tell which order would...

    Understanding IB

    Money or services that can be worth money does change hands between you and IB, Jerry! Please be open about your relationship to them. You do have a business relationship with IB and I do think as part of disclosure that if you're going to try to silence complaints about them you need to...

    Hello, Jerry, if that's you. You do have a business relationship with IB, Don't you? Money does change hands between you, yes? How does that work exactly? Yes, you'll find my posts on every thread about IB from now on, and not only here but on the other sites where brokerages are evaluated. I...

    Understanding IB

    def is high level management at IB and he reflects their position on matters accurately. That is to say, they don't really want to provide support to customers. I have brokerage accounts and at each of them I have always been able to speak to a manager when I asked. These are all discount...

    Understanding IB

    Yes, I had the misfortune to speak to three different CS reps at IB. Twice to Joe and once each to the others. Two of the three fellows were rude and all were unresponsive to the issue and one refused to allow me to talk to a supv or mgr, when I four times requested it in a phone call. I decided...

    IB sponsors this site financially. I don't know if that's why. I don't see my own negative rating of IB, either!

    what is your feeling about IB

    Dear xxx (customer service rep), When you failed to respond to the last note I sent you, which you will find in the historical correspondence between us, copied below, I asked def to take a look at this. He had kindly offered to help out if I had problems with IB, when we happened to meet on...

    what is your feeling about IB

    IB is the worst broker I tried (of maybe 25 brokers over the years), because they told me lies. I feel that when a broker lies to a customer that they are unethical and shouldn't be trusted with my money. And it wasn't just a low level staffer who lied, either. It was also a very high level...

    Good Morning, Kap! I am usually up by 4AM, but last night I'd made a promise to sell those hanging shorts, so I stayed up as long as I could, to unload them before bed. I thought the market would correct today, but I'm not always right and I made a promise to sell them, so I did, (a promise...
