  • peterdeugenio peter deugenio (@peterdeugenio) reported

    @IGClientHelp i've been on hold for over 30mins to find out why you transferred my funds to the wrong currency account. Your live chat feature is a total waste of time and I'm wondering why your service is so hopeless for the amount of money I have onboard?

  • NamTab70369080 NamTab (@NamTab70369080) reported

    @IGClientHelp @HFlipster I have had the same issue all day. Open positions that I cannot see and right now I have a position open that I can see but can't amend my stop loss. I amend the level on the chart and then it just bounces back to where it was.... Not good honestly. I can't stay with IG

  • Zubairssss Zubair (@Zubairssss) reported

    @IGClientHelp Extremely unimpressed by the quality of service I've received the last two weeks. Days to get a reply and from someone who didn't even read my query properly. And I'm being asked if the problem persists?

  • markodonnell10 Mark O'Donnell (@markodonnell10) reported

    @IGClientHelp Sorry - I can’t get through to your help desk - I don’t have hours to wait on the phone I’m afraid - can you help?

  • chrisrobson1163 Robbo@pitchside7 (@chrisrobson1163) reported

    @gazra10 @IGClientHelp Wouldn't mind if if was a level playing Field and you couldn't trade either way, The stock will only go one way if sell only. So once the stock goes down they will happily let you close your account. Can see a court date ahead.

  • Jam4u_75 Jam4U (@Jam4u_75) reported

    @SilentNinjaDude @sharesearch_ I consolidated select ones into one SIP with @IGClientHelp - took ages (not IG's fault, but the incumbent Pension Administrators have a very slow process).

  • Josh21318170 Josh (@Josh21318170) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hey, I need to find out my account manager's email address. Something went wrong and now I have absolutely no way of contacting them unless they contact me first. I will give you more details in DM's if you're able to help me out

  • Montage512 Monte M (@Montage512) reported

    @nickcawley1 @DailyFX @IGcom Apparently write these articles with no real information why the crypto market crashed. F2 mining pool dumped btc into the market. Probably because bitcoin futures are up on Friday. Second there was a flash crash on Kraken that plummeted the prices further and that caused panic.

  • rupsy007 Rupsy (@rupsy007) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi, I am having issues withdrawing my funds?

    Either that, or IG is having some 'issues' that are unclear. Something is not adding up here. @IGClientHelp @IGSquawk
