    Just shows you how bad @IGcom are ..I have a stop at 49.7p with spreadex but that WASN'T triggered so they have not used genuine prices. Complaint sent

    @IGInternational @IGcom @IGClientHelp Your website is down and I’m unable to trade at the most important time. This is ridiculous.

    @IGcom Your Trading platform is down for almost an hour now and no communication or updates when this would be resolved.

    @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

    @IGcom shocking customer service today. Executed an order way off market and now been trying to get through to someone for over an hour. Seriously considering moving my business if this is the norm.

  • QuantumStateX
    QuantumX (@QuantumStateX) reported

    @IGcom Well, not that you'll be able to trade them because IG's customer support is always unavailable.

  • Tyranus2010

    Is there a issue with you app? My open positions are not updating and so im unable to close or edit them. @IGcom

  • wealthelf
    Macro Joe (@wealthelf) reported

    @HLInvest systems still down. Zero ability to trade. Adds to my experience of repeated resilience issues, admin friction, delays, and inability to act when it matters. @IGcom — serious opportunity here. Why is your SIPP not execution-only? Requiring adviser sign-off to transfer is completely out of step with modern, self-directed investors. Build it properly and you’ll win a lot of business...certainly mine...be quick!

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom How do you move to a different provider while IG is down?

  • InfoJelt
    jelt (@InfoJelt) reported

    @IGcom no one answering phone or chat for 2 hours. Someone or a lot of people need to complain to the FCA about this scam company.

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom It’s down in Singapore too

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

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom I noticed that even II was not working around 12 noon. Has since been rectified, so maybe a wider issue today.

    @igcom @IGClientHelp @IGLabs Does anybody actually look at your whatsapp, intercom, or x messages? Getting any kind of support from your team is nearly impossible.

    @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.

    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
