    @HLInvest systems still down. Zero ability to trade. Adds to my experience of repeated resilience issues, admin friction, delays, and inability to act when it matters. @IGcom — serious opportunity here. Why is your SIPP not execution-only? Requiring adviser sign-off to transfer is completely out of step with modern, self-directed investors. Build it properly and you’ll win a lot of business...certainly mine...be quick!

    @CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 I looked into this recently. According to CoPilot, you can trade options in an IBKR SIPP if you go through a SIPP admin such as Westerby Trustee Services or atsipp. Assuming CoPilot is correct, I might go down this route

    @IGcom What is going on , trades not showing or closing, and support at a standstill.

  • CasinoCapital
    Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reported

    Hey @IGClientHelp, do you think you'll ever fix your share dealing accounts so it shows which currencies/amounts my funds are in? Just one of those basic things that's annoying enough I'll prob close my account over.

    @djp4976 @IGcom @LondonSouthEast I get live trade quotes with IG, only have an isa but there’s no alteration to the service from my experience! Never had RSP or L2

    @englandcricket @IGcom Having to watch these clips here because @virginmedia provide such a shocking service to its customers. Not been able to watch anything since Wednesday. Bravo

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp Unfortunately I will be making a complaint to the Financial Conduct Authority. My account remains blocked, my monies still not transfered out after repeated requests, no reply to DM.

    @IGcom shocking customer service today. Executed an order way off market and now been trying to get through to someone for over an hour. Seriously considering moving my business if this is the norm.

    @englandcricket @IGcom Shame that the rest of them batting are useless. Playing stupid shots

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom I bought VOD via II, could not get a RFQ around 12. Also using IG, so familiar with the issue. II now working. Have IG announced this? or is the 'upgrade' on the quiet.

  • BuksNCofy
    Humaira A (@BuksNCofy) reported

    @igcom @igclienthelp Been waiting for 2 hours on your WhatsApp ‘service’ + live chat with no response. Simple requests go through convoluted processes; I was promised a 3hr turnaround on a ‘ card verification’ that is still pending over 24hrs later? Shocking customer service!

    @IGcom I have been struggling since friday to create a live account (7x), response from IG all 7x, "sorry we are having technical issues". I sent an email twice to accountopening but no reply as yet. Can someone help please?

  • Singhcricguy
    Singh V.R. (@Singhcricguy) reported

    @englandcricket @IGcom Looks bad but Good luck to change the stat- The last time England won a test match in Australia was when- a. Kohli was yet to make his test debut. b. Joe Root didn’t play any one of his 161 Test matches.

  • RichOnMacro
    Rich On Macro (@RichOnMacro) reported

    @kev123703 @IGcom It’s not the borrow that’s the problem, 10 minutes after Harper requests him to get borrow, he says they are short 100m of stock! Even with borrow, then it would be highly unethical to slot 5 different banks in £20m each just before a -8% announcement! You’d get cut off from all!

  • DartronTrading
    DartronTrading (@DartronTrading) reported

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom I noticed that even II was not working around 12 noon. Has since been rectified, so maybe a wider issue today.

  • Penny_Shares
    Penny Share Trader (@Penny_Shares) reported

    @ShareSpeculator @IGClientHelp Yep seems to be a id login issue

  • noah_phd
    Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported

    @igcom @IGClientHelp @IGLabs Does anybody actually look at your whatsapp, intercom, or x messages? Getting any kind of support from your team is nearly impossible.

  • Ruud_Kist
    Ruud Kist (@Ruud_Kist) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have been waiting for a deposit for over 24 hours and can't reach support via phone/chat. Can you help?"

  • djp4976
    Dave (@djp4976) reported

    @IGcom You’re going to lose a hell of a lot of investors from your platform shortly due to these changes coming in, looks like no more ‘Request for Quote’ orders, limit and market orders only, wouldn’t be so bad if your orders actually got filled, you’ve always been useless with those, seems like only US stocks get filled with U.K. stocks sat there being unfilled all day even when there’s plenty of stock available within that order price

  • CasinoCapital
    Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reported

    @chippycapital I actually like IG generally, am probably one of their longest-standing customers (last century!), but damn @IGClientHelp they'll just ignore you when you try and suggest tiny UX changes that would improve their systems. Am on verge of shutting all my accounts except spreadbet

  • JM1ZZX
    J-M (@JM1ZZX) reported

    @IGcom Step up with customer support... I have tried to reach your support for several days now. With email and with whatsapp but have got zero replys. Trying to open account... Not a very good first impression, though, as there is no customer service at all.

  • IGClientHelp
    IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported

    @its_fundamental @IGcom Are you still seeing the discrepancy in your funds or cash balances? It’s possible this was due to weekend downtime or routine maintenance updates. If the issue is ongoing, please DM us and we’ll look into it right away.

    @englandcricket @IGcom Wasn’t Duckett on his “last warning” for tipping a pint on Jimmy’s head? Bloke was battered in Noosa, looks fat and can’t buy a run. Baz’s solution, have another game son. What a tier 2 joke of a cricketing nation. #Ashes
