Is it only me or does everyone else feels that the quaility of IBKR’s Indian reps is really bad. They give wrong answers confidently and is insistent that their wrong answers are right. Please see below chat transcripts is just an example and good thing I avoid wasting time arguing with them. Ms Patil are you there? Mugdha P: Please note that US legal residents are excluded from trading securities options outside of the United States due to SEC restrictions. As a US legal resident you will not have an option to select options for other regions ME: Do you know this for sure? Or just a quick guess? That’s not correct. Mugdha P: This is not a guess
Interestingly, there are total of 5 people involved in this chit chat: Ms Patil Magdha P ME Fxmove88 IBKR Indian Reps _____________________________ Anyway, avoid contacting help desk unless it is life and death situation. Is help desk a bot?
