I sent out the wire transfer request before the opening on Thursday and nothing happened on Thursday or Friday, emailed them before the opening and during the day today, and they are ignoring the emails as well as the request. Please advise.
If it's IB it takes 2 or 3 days to show up in your account. Friday is too early if the request was made on Thursday, you should have your money by Tuesday, or maybe even today. I believe one day of the delay is because of the bank, not IB.
2 days is too short of a delay to start worrying.
After a week, then you should start phoning them up daily.
Sit back and relax
I am sure this will be sorted out by the middle of this week.
