  • BlueflushUK Blueflush (@BlueflushUK) reported

    @IGClientHelp This issue has still not been resolved - pretty poor to have such a widespread issue with your charts. Impacts all the backwards looking TA indicators.

  • thetaatthemoney CLs Daddy (@thetaatthemoney) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi, couple things I've asked my account manager regarding but got nowhere. Could you please help? 1 - P&L does not reconcile across the account - different P&Ls shown under account balance, positions etc 2 - Trade analytics feature has great promise but.. 1/2

  • eddy_tedster Eddy edster (@eddy_tedster) reported

    @IGcom Will there be a Client Help account there too and if so will it be possible to get help unlike it seems to be on Twitter?? @IGClientHelp is always completely unresponsive

  • CallumColman2 Callum Colman (@CallumColman2) reported

    @IGcom Customer service advice, allow people to withdraw and also answer the damn phones, you should already know these. Its not tricky

  • melaninsuki Melaninsuki (@melaninsuki) reported

    @loveisaduel @IGClientHelp Please I can’t login my Ig account username @melaninsuki because my account was disabled please I need to recover my account help me Sir

  • 151design David Stephen (@151design) reported

    @IGClientHelp Since last week I have noticed many charts not displaying candlestick data for anything other than daily timeframes? The price position at the time is displayed, but nothing proceeding it during that day. Is this a system-wide problem at the moment?

  • Dan_The_Maiin Daniel (@Dan_The_Maiin) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi, are you aware of the issues with some of your stocks? I can't edit/close amazon and the current profit is incorrect.

  • CallumColman2 Callum Colman (@CallumColman2) reported

    @IGcom @IChronicle Youve got the manpower to tweet and article every 30mins but nobodys around to answer the damn phone?! Prorities people!

  • bally_o bally (@bally_o) reported

    @IGcom Why I don't want to use IG. 1. There is not 2 factor authentication and when asked to the customer care there are no tokens left and if hacked the risk is ours 👏🏽

  • shoaibchand227 Israr Ahmed (@shoaibchand227) reported

    @IGcom Lets crash tesla to show that idiotic psychopath market manipulator some lesson ! He's way too over his head now

  • Hendi213 Hendi (@Hendi213) reported

    @MrLarus My shares still haven't been transferred to Ciz on @IGcom yet. Ive called them once and now emailed. Terrible service, half the value likely to have gone by the time they get round to it

  • betrbiz Trader Queen 👑 (@betrbiz) reported

    @AOnung @IGcom Not a glitch. It's halted

  • rhewins Robert Hewins (@rhewins) reported

    @IGClientHelp can you please tell me when the problem with the chart for US Oil Crude will be resolved for spread betting? It stopped working on 30 April - there are no candles to see. I am a student following a trading course using a demo account and unable to trade oil!!!!

  • glassjawbone AM (@glassjawbone) reported

    @IGClientHelp Fidelity upped their limit sell to 600% of the current price. This limit used to be only 50%. Why can't IG provide that service?

  • DaveyD95 David (@DaveyD95) reported

    The great thing about having opened an @IGcom account is that they won't allow me to place any trades and their online chat and email service are nigh on useless so don't even know how to fix an error. Unusuable cash is king

  • DaveyD95 David (@DaveyD95) reported

    @IGcom Doesn't stop your live chat being unable to work out anything and then fobbing customers off saying they will email to help and then don't, doesn't inspire any confidence to switch fully to yourselves
