    @IGClientHelp hello my name is Derrick Aning. The name on my IG account @prof_amazing suddenly changed from Derrick Aning to Francis Mark. And my dp also changed. How do I fix this please.

  • MrLarus Larus (@MrLarus) reported

    @IGClientHelp Thank you. The numbers on your app don't respond in anything like a reasonable time for placing a trade, but I was given a direct line by a fellow investor. Your service frankly is crap at the moment.

  • Stocky_Bill 🇬🇧 St⭕cky ₿ill 🇪🇸 (@Stocky_Bill) reported

    @JohanWilson8 @IGcom Cheers son that is very nice of you to say. Yes @IGcom are right bunch of twerps I was going to move from Hargreaves over to them but now I will have to reconsider they are very stupid to have this policy

  • wishlalwani Wish Lalwani (@wishlalwani) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @IGClientHelp hi I have been having this problem of not being able to close my trade. I am having more of such issues now. Opening trades are ok but closing them is a hit and miss thing. need to exectue multiple times before the trade finally closed and by then.

  • HaraldHadrada2 Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported

    Right cant be assed with last 30. Good week but markets looking or aim market is looking wishy washy in general. Roll on next week and please @IGClientHelp help me get my III to IG transaction moving. Ile bring loads of new pi with me after.

  • BucklerFern El Fern (Taking the P*ss) (@BucklerFern) reported

    @cperkin99 @LondonSouthEast If you compare LSE's poor performance, with IG's direct anti-client behaviors, gives you something to look at. One doesn't server investors so well, the other acts directly contrary to the interests of investors (their clients). @IGClientHelp Could not deal with IG again, ever.

  • Si_macc Simon McDonnell (@Si_macc) reported

    @IGcom still waiting for an email response from your transfers department regarding my ISA transfer. It it was a problem your end so expecting it to be sorted asap. Can't get hold of anyone in your transfers department, I was told to call 020 7633 5569, is this right?

  • williaga Gareth Williams (@williaga) reported

    @IGcom can you please tell me HOW I get in touch with you people? My account is locked for some reason but nowhere can I see a way to get help..... This is ridiculous!!!

  • KrabBait Kbart (@KrabBait) reported

    @IGClientHelp cant login due to error. You guys are hopeless. I think it's time to jump ship. I can't have intermittent access to my trading account this is rediculous.

  • HH11965784 HH (@HH11965784) reported

    @IGClientHelp need you help with Forex for GBP/USD - chart is not updating properly since last Thursday - very slow and candle movement even on 10min chart is not consistent. Orders do not transition to Positions.

  • _ewp Ed Poole (@_ewp) reported

    @IGClientHelp Your volume indicators are broken and have been for a while - they don’t update unless you refresh the page. Any visibility on this? Given the lack of reply the last time I tweeted, I’m not holding my breath though…

  • BucklerFern El Fern (Taking the P*ss) (@BucklerFern) reported

    @fckisam1676 @IGClientHelp Do not deal with IG. Don't give a f--k about clients and customer service is SH1-E.

  • shak_m shak (@shak_m) reported

    @IGClientHelp useless help on online chat and via phone. On hold for over hour then call gets dropped. People promise to email but never hear from them again. Once all funds are cleared and you finally give me shares will leave. Disgusting

  • dangrafty graftkicks 👞 (@dangrafty) reported

    @williaga @IGcom Hello go message Daniel_hacks001 on Instagram. He helped me in getting back my account, this support system sucks mate

  • shak_m shak (@shak_m) reported

    @IGcom Doesnt mean you cut me off? The questions i have do not get answered in your faq. You are witholding my shares for an invalid reason. And your support is useless and shocking. Just constant lies of getting back in contact with me.

  • fangol92 dan white (@fangol92) reported

    @IGClientHelp I cannot transfer funds from my share dealing account into my ISA as it incorrectly says 0 available, please help!

  • sliboy Craig (@sliboy) reported

    @dontdelay @IGcom I just assumed it was only covered by £85k fscs. So its a lot to loose over that if all goes bad and something has happened to nominee account. Hence why my sipp is with one provider isa with another and trading account with someone else.
