-
Marcus McQueen (@MarcusMcQueen16) reported@IGcom @FSCS Did IG impose restrictions when Tesla shares went parabolic? Ofcourse not, so why restrict GME and AMC. cc @metpoliceuk this is criminal activity, a blatant attempt to crash the shares of GME & AMC so the Hedge fund shorts make millions & normal folk lose. Take Action!
-
Brian Moyer Sr (@bmoyer1981) reported@jasoncartwright @IGcom They get caught with their hand in the cookie jar and now they want to make the person who caught them look bad!! It is a FREE MARKET so let the people risk their own money!!! I don’t need help losing it it’s my choice the hypocrisy is deafening and you are part of the problem!!!
-
StockInvestor (@StockInvestor16) reported@RichardMans1 @IGcom I think FIX is the appropriate word in this whole debarcal.
-
Eye Emmay Patriot (@TSleepyjoe) reported@pasteech @Mateo_Lamuno @IGcom The risk comes only from the first one to decide and choose the specific stock. It is as simple as that, we are taking risks by continuing to buy buy buy knowing these scumbags who have billions off doing the same **** every time and now it is a problem because we are making $$?

damianportaroAU (@damianportaroAU) reported@IGClientHelp looking at silver options. Via physical or ETF. With the longest date possible. Having trouble finding much of you can advise
-
Jason West (@JWestDigital) reported@IGcom Lost me as a customer. You were already the platform with the worst usability and now you want to babysit us too. Your systems should be able to handle spikes in traffic without falling to pieces and losing us trades!
-
Alex Kent (@AlexKentUK) reported@IGcom The Irony. Have no problems taking our money in normal conditions, but cares about taking our money in volatile conditions. Just raise margin to 100% and let the people TRADE
-
Brian Moyer Sr (@bmoyer1981) reported@IGcom Help the criminals who ruined poor people’s 401k and other retirement funds because the little guy is finally getting a piece of the pie!!! The ignorance here is disgusting hopefully the avg Joe starts taking money elsewhere because you seem like a dictator!! Hold it forever!!!
-
StockInvestor (@StockInvestor16) reported@IGcom @gamerti44700836 No one interested in your apologies. What they are interested in, is being able to access their accounts and investments, as they are losing money in a falling market all because of your supposed bad IT. If you can provide the proper infrastructure,you should handle clients funds
-
Martin McLaughlin (@martinmcln) reported@IGClientHelp Due to the recent extreme volatility, and in order to prioritise the service we give our existing clients, we are not allowing any new positions to be opened on the US stocks GameStop and AMC Entertainment. WTF is going on here😡 This needs to be investigated
-
Jason Cartwright (@jasoncartwright) reported@RabbitualFender @IGcom You've clearly not used IG in the last few days. It's been a bit flakey, and quite impossible to call them. I think we'll let the weirdo reddit stonkmonsters calm down and allow adults go about their business without disruption.
-
StockInvestor (@StockInvestor16) reported@IGClientHelp There is something called TCF and IG index is regulated by the FCA. If you have been affected by the supposed IT issues/ Systems issues and have as a direct consequence lost money, or lost profit, then you need to detail this. Make a official complaint. If you don’t make a

StockInvestor (@StockInvestor16) reported@IGcom Please note, IG does not currently offer anything as their systems are down daily and people can’t access their accounts.
-
Sasha Taylor (@RabbitualFender) reported@jasoncartwright @IGcom I’ve looked and it seems that in the UK the brokers either aren’t required to make the % public, or they may only divulge it if you’re a customer. I can’t tell which. But it doesn’t seem like a coincidence to me, when they’re all added up.
-
Sasha Taylor (@RabbitualFender) reported@jasoncartwright @IGcom People try to buy a stock but can’t. Other people are allowed to sell the same stock. Stock price goes down because people are only selling. People who can’t buy (but are allowed to only sell) must sell because accounts are blowing up. Citadel is the common denominator.
-
bob (@lonewolf0102878) reported@IGcom Who are you to tell people how they can and cant spend there money, we are allowed to go spend 50k at the casino, buy things we don't need and waste money on junk food, but now all of sudden companies care about our financial stability, how about some consistency with our chains
-
Bulls&BearsPLC (@BBearsplc) reported@IGcom Live Chat is useless , always broken, message service on twitter is useless, 4 days to respond, your platform does not appear to be live , even though I pay for it and your "change" "%change" figures are not accurate..Really disappointed.
-
Joshua Hellyer (@joshua_hellyer) reported@IGClientHelp $GME Hi guys, I seem to be having a problem where my platform restricts buying but not selling. This seems to be artificially crashing the stock price as my trade platform colludes with other trade platforms in the benefit of protecting hedge funds. Please help.
-
Martin Anthony (@MartinRAnthony1) reported@IGcom Shame on you @IGcom .. . disgraceful behaviour by you and the other brokers that have gone down this route.
-
Chris (@GrizwaldW) reported@IGcom What a **** *** decision you greedy bunch of asses. May you reap what you bring on. This isn’t a reddit movement. This is an educational wake up that has moved across the globe. Move your money people. Burn these greedy bastards down!
-
StockInvestor (@StockInvestor16) reported@JohanDXB @IGcom Because they are absolute clowns. You can tell that, by the fact they offer a sharedealing service on the phone, but a lot of the time it takes 30-45mins to answer a form. They are a complete joke!!!!
-
Myles Junior (@myles_junior) reported@IGcom Have sent a complaint to the regulatory body. Pure market manipulation and disgusting behaviour. I'll be sure to let everyone I possibly can to never use your platform again.
-
Marcus McQueen (@MarcusMcQueen16) reported@IGcom @FSCS this is blatant market manipulation by IG. Everyone close your accounts and move to another Brokerage. By restricting buying this will crash the share price allowing Hedge fund Shorts to cover and make massive profits at the expense of the Retail Customer @FSCS ACT!

Life Is The Game (@LifeIsTheGame3) reported@jasoncartwright @Stevolution76 @IGcom So whats is the problem if i want to play yolostonks for the lolz? its supposed to be a free market, so im free to burn my money if i want

Ross 📈🚀 (@hometraderross) reported@SalihKirmizi12 @IGcom The problem is they are all starting to do it, I never thought IG would join the bandwagon..
-
KingsDiamonds (@mascaro_marc) reported@IGcom I’m sure a “Big Brother” is behind the scene telling them help us out, please stop the trading on these stocks .

Life Is The Game (@LifeIsTheGame3) reported@IGcom **** YOU BASTARDS
-
Top Lungs (@TopLungs666) reported@IGcom Terrible last week 3 times lost ability to trade..bloody awful. Not everyone is interested in Trading stocks but Fx or indices and to have that totally ****** up by all this hype in #GME etc is not on. But saying this IG sort your ******* Platform Out & don’t restrict us trading.

hand (@gus78617099) reported@IGcom That's a shame i was going to keep using you. now i have to go to the trouble of finding a class action lawsuit i can join
-
Arch Grim (@ArchGrimm) reported@IGcom But I am an existing customer. I payed my US trading fees in Jan to be able to trade in Feb. Wouldn’t prioritising existing customers be stopping new accounts to be created? Not controlling what existing customers trade? Free market my ***.
