Customer service
People of European Economic Area (EEA) [UK + 26EU + CH + NO + IS] have IB UK for broker and customer service.
The customer service of IB UK is in London. I never deal with IB US customer service.

The same thing with IB Japan, IB Australia, IB HongKong, IB Canada, IB India witch manage certain countries.
In other case, you are managed directly by IB US.


Technicaly
TWS DOM can not be used.
Develop with IB API in C++ is very painful (Ilogical design model, Bad documentation).
Charting is very crapy.
Historica data for charting is not always exact.
Data Feed is sufficient for Swing Trading, Option Trading (Combo, Swing, Volatility). But, not good for DayTrading.



Solutions
Use a 3 party DOM (SC, Button, MC, NT, TS, BT ....)
Use a 3 party Charting + Hitorical data (SC ....)
Use an other DataFeed Provider
