I’m in the process of setting up an Interactive Brokers account, and it’s been dragging on for weeks now.

Every couple of days they come back asking for another document or another piece of information. I don’t mind providing whatever they need, but why not just ask for everything in one go instead of stretching it out over weeks?

Anyway, today I checked my LinkedIn and noticed someone from Interactive Brokers had viewed my profile. Is that considered normal as part of their verification process, or is that a bit unusual? It honestly felt a little creepy.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? And do you find that much of a due dilligence normal?
