With or without those reviews, I have no personal experience to comment upon their service. However I am more comfortable with HL, who I've been happy with for many years.
I've never had probs withdrawing money from IB. As other poster said make sure you are looking at correct company there is a very similarly named one out there.
Overall very happy with them & had quick online responses to quite technical queries over the years
But I do have to watch a howto video when converting currencies, everytime, as they make you do a complex FOREX currency pair trade :p (don't let this put you off)
I use IB for USD stuff and single stock trades. Even dipped my toe in the odd option trade with them before my day job got too busy
Cons: less access to to prefs, pibs and retail bonds talked about here.
BTW They have recently allowed ISA accounts, previously was just a trader account.
