  • AlpineDubliner Alpine (@AlpineDubliner) reported

    @LSDinmycoffee @tradingview @IGcom It's be great though no doubt . I used another CFDs broker in TV, and found the execution laggy: Not sure if it was a UI or execution issue

  • KosiKwee Kosi M Kwee (@KosiKwee) reported

    @IGcom I can't login to my IG account since I am in Indonesia 4 days ago. May I know if I am not supposed to be able to login while I am here or is it just a coincidence? 🙏

  • Stephen77553489 Stephen (@Stephen77553489) reported

    @IGClientHelp No problem. I have messaged you.

  • SelimmGursoyyy Selim Gursoy (@SelimmGursoyyy) reported

    @PriapusIQ @IGcom Then UK could have a problem with Putin...

  • lymebayfool lymebayfool (@lymebayfool) reported

    @GaryNTrader @IGcom You're lucky. A spread bet account I had in the early days gave me a £130,000 margin call. They had an issue with where to put the decimal place with a single small position. Made me sweat for a few minutes.

  • thewinelake Alex (@thewinelake) reported

    @TomCullingham @IGcom Their response to my "stop messing" was to ignore me, and to my complaint was a right old mouthful of feathers. I've now moved to Spreadex. Although their spreads are wider, their web interface is better (eg. you can see how much margin is associated with which position).

  • anti_matter_jr x (@anti_matter_jr) reported

    @IGcom issues on us operation, guidance lowered

  • CarrotorStick Paul D (@CarrotorStick) reported

    @IGcom Having spoken to the woeful customer service call centre, I can see why. Shame really as the stores are really helpful.

  • Incogni24145349 Incognitus (@Incogni24145349) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have been trying to get a hold of you for more than 15 days now. I've sent several emails without getting a response from You. Your customer service is horrible!

  • Lib_Capital LiberationCapital (@Lib_Capital) reported

    @IGcom worst customer service on so many levels. Clueless.

  • KosiKwee Kosi M Kwee (@KosiKwee) reported

    @IGClientHelp I can't login to my IG account since I am in Indonesia 4 days ago. May I know if I am not supposed to be able to login while I am here or is it just a coincidence? 🙏

  • thewinelake Alex (@thewinelake) reported

    @TomCullingham @IGcom I think underlying these problems is almost a contempt for the customer - a lack of willingness for those that know about these things to talk to the affected customers. So I was trying to close positions that they'd opened, and they'd close positions I'd opened.

  • WiliWhitelaw Wili Whitelaw (@WiliWhitelaw) reported

    @IGcom Error in first line? 2022 surely

  • thewinelake Alex (@thewinelake) reported

    @TomCullingham @IGcom I wondered about that! No, it was some bad data that screwed their systems for a bit. Unfortunately it exposed their utterly useless customer services and technical teams. So my positions were screwed around with for several hours. So lucky it was a quiet day, but I'm off.

  • coolwich Coolwich (@coolwich) reported

    @IGcom Please consider re-writing this Tweet. Aesthetically awful, difficult to decipher.

  • GaryNTrader Gary Newman (@GaryNTrader) reported

    @EquityInvestme2 @IGcom It wasn’t even a glitch like that, just completely unrelated amounts to what should have been there.

  • michiel_boshoff Michiel Boshoff (@michiel_boshoff) reported

    @IGcom Zamar Faria at IG South Africa give terrible service to his clients!!

  • Leon26075702 Leon (@Leon26075702) reported

    @IGcom Has a former BT subscriber this down to how you treat your customers. Couldn't happen to a better company

  • JamesFaulds James Faulds (@JamesFaulds) reported

    @IGcom I can’t access my trading history beyond 90 days as the button for Custom setting isn’t working. Tried different devices without success. Can you help, please?

  • simonhi54058807 simon hill (@simonhi54058807) reported

    @deekoo92 @PriapusIQ @IGcom Not exactly the same, they have had various types of support from the German govt. some in credit lines, some pure debt. It has hammered their credit rating though making everything they hedge (fuel, currency) + aircraft leasing far more expensive. Great long term move…

  • Teenanto Anto N (@Teenanto) reported

    @DonPabby_93 True @IGcom are rubbish at that. Hope they can fix their lazy bots. 🤖

  • PawelG_Ldn PawelG (@PawelG_Ldn) reported

    @IGcom @IGSquawk @JeremyNaylor_IG Heavy push into 2023 due to low inflation data and then energy prices killing everything causing a crash. Completely opposite view.

  • eddy_tedster Eddy edster (@eddy_tedster) reported

    @IGClientHelp Please be aware the problem still exists over 6 months later and I even raised the issue with the help desk and got an incident number INC0681847 last month. How long can it take to fix?? #HBR not #PMO

  • VinsDeF Vins Def (@VinsDeF) reported

    Hey @IGcom, how cool would it be to automate trades with @Capitalise_ai? Any way to support them? #Code_Free_Trading_Automation

  • thewinelake Alex (@thewinelake) reported

    @TomCullingham @IGcom Trouble was they did just that, but twice! Then I closed the extra position and they also closed it afterwards, but that ended up as a short position! Just a right old mess and a big waste of time. If there was loss it would be <£100

  • GrahamK86614778 Graham King (@GrahamK86614778) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have a position in Coer Mining Inc June contract and the chart is not working, please update urgently.

  • EquityInvestme2 Equity Investments (@EquityInvestme2) reported

    @PriapusIQ Very interesting, if thats the case I'll go to court and use this case law against @IGcom when their platform regularly goes down and happily passes the buck.
