    @DonaldPond6 @IGcom Yes, wonder if the decision was made further down the chain. If the CEO was aware that's an absolute shocker. Might be an opportunity for @vladtenev at Robinhood to steal some more UK market share by just offering better customer experiences.

    @Woodywudpeck @IGcom They are pure rubbish!! I stopped using them in 2023. They couldn't even issue a simple P&L statement 🙈 despite explaining then how to do it leave alone leave alone platform working smoothly 😬

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom US stocks have always been fine for orders, it’s always been poor U.K. side, especially the smaller more illiquid companies, even if stock is there and you place your order below that level it never seems to fill, I would have hoped if they at removing request for quote that orders would improve but after speaking to a few not sure it will. What’s the point having a trading account with @IGcom if you can’t trade through the platform, more like a holdco than anything else. Anyway, I’ll see how bad it is next week when migrated and go from there

    @DickyVenter @The_Huntsman23 @IGcom Same issue; doesn't look like a hack though either, don't spread information like that

    @IGcom please can somebody pick up the phone on the helpdesk - I am having difficulty opening an account and some help would be appreciated @ChrisB_IG

    @IGClientHelp Can you please update us ASAP. Your service and response is toilet. You used to be a pillar or trading and standards. Your now well.......

  • noah_phd
    Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported

    @IGClientHelp Your AI Bot chat is worthless, and consistently gives incorrect information. Some of your API documentation is out-of-date, and it seems impossible to speak to an actual human on a phone call. How are we supposed to get any support?

  • theWiseFool8
    the Wise Fool (@theWiseFool8) reported

    @IGcom Wouldn't bother with IG. If you have a problem.. its impossible to get hold of a human.

    Not able to log in to mobile or desktop apps. Have the grace to at least post a message about this issue. I am getting so pissed off with IG and their support. You are destroying what was a great platform. Its a disgrace. @IGClientHelp @IGTradingFloor @IGcom

  • Amynah_Aziz
    Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported

    @IGcom Client Services help desk referred the matter to backend team to investigate & resolve, still awaiting. I may be a very small fish but am a potential customer; very disappointed with your service.

    @IGcom seem to have gone from being very good across the board to pulling every trick in the book to **** over their customers.

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom What platform are you switching too? I’ve only joined at the start of the year they are awful. Thought it just me who couldn’t log in

  • network_surrey
    Dougparkspropertynest (@network_surrey) reported

    @IGcom On hold 16 minutes to try and get help logging in…. Still no answer, this is a joke of a service IG… what is happening ??!!!

    dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported

    @IGcom @financialombuds If anyone @IGcom is reading this, I still have had no acknowledgement from my support request sent Friday. I emailed yesterday as follow up for the complaints process.

    @network_surrey @IGcom Same problem. On the phone to their helpdesk - been kept on hold for 1.5h now.

  • GonzaloCanete
    Gonzalo Canete (@GonzaloCanete) reported

    Hi @IGcom I opened an account with you to test the quality of your services. I have deposited a considerable amount of funds and have kept the account active through various trading transactions. I have been trying for weeks to resolve a simple query regarding the status of my account and your trading terms. I have been unable to get a response via chat, email or telephone. Customer service seems non-existent, apart from an AI agent on the website to handle general enquiries. If you are reading this, please contact me privately #IG #IGMarkets

    @IGcom Can’t get into my account… fix it straightaway, how can someone trade with an account that can’t be logged into @IGClientHelp @IGcom

    @IGClientHelp hi IG. There appears to be an issue with the mobile iPhone app. When I log in I get a message “session timed out. Please login again” and the app then goes to log in screen.

    @JJJorange @IGcom @financialombuds Same issue for me… useless customer service

  • Smudgedann

    @ThomasTitmouse @djp4976 @IGcom Reckon some sort of solution will be found and then all those that sold will be mightily pissed

  • DartronTrading
    DartronTrading (@DartronTrading) reported

    @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.

  • dv8or1
    DV8OR (@dv8or1) reported

    @IGcom what has happened to your customer service?? I have been trying to connect with someone via WhatsApp, phone and email and haven’t got a response…!!! This is becoming unacceptable and is enough to make me reconsider my account.
