    @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.

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom They always have problems !! Why do you even use them? I stopped using them in 2023 as they couldn't even issue a simple P&L statement despite explaining to their so called accounts how it's done 🙈

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

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom Any support on where to switch ? Such a shame it was the best platform for me

    @ThomasTitmouse @djp4976 @IGcom Reckon some sort of solution will be found and then all those that sold will be mightily pissed

    @IGcom I am having problems logging in and your status page is not working. Is there a problem?

  • djp4976
    Dave (@djp4976) reported

    @TheMoneySponge @IGcom US stocks have always been fine for orders, it’s always been poor U.K. side, especially the smaller more illiquid companies, even if stock is there and you place your order below that level it never seems to fill, I would have hoped if they at removing request for quote that orders would improve but after speaking to a few not sure it will. What’s the point having a trading account with @IGcom if you can’t trade through the platform, more like a holdco than anything else. Anyway, I’ll see how bad it is next week when migrated and go from there

    @LBC @IGClientHelp if the ig app and website doesn’t work and there is no help (20 minutes on the phone, WhatsApp), what do customers do? This happens os often. What happens if there is margin call? Is there any regulator looking at these provides or are they above the law?

    @11invest @IGcom Just got a template response from support, telling me to clear cache and switch to wifi haha

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp your platform is down. When will it be open?

  • privateinsto
    Private Insto (@privateinsto) reported

    @IGcom have you gone out of business ? No answer from your phones and emails and the platform is down Shocker Is this the end ?

  • Alec_Lo
    Alec Lo (@Alec_Lo) reported

    @IGcom This is unacceptable. Been over an hour since login errors, no communication. How can I trust your platform anymore?

  • thedarkonexx
    JB (@thedarkonexx) reported

    @IGClientHelp Platform is down but no message on your X account?

  • tardigrade911
    Trafalgar (@tardigrade911) reported

    @IGcom It is down, and as usual no feedback from their clients support.

    @IGcom Why is the service down and when will it be back online? No announcement, support page not working. Jokers.

    @ggreynaomi @Molibar @IGcom sorry. down for me too

  • zenxv
    zenXV (@zenxv) reported

    @IGcom I have an urgent trading issue and been on hold for 45 minutes on webchat, phone and Whatsapp in which time the stock I am trading has had 8% upside. This is terrible for live traders?

  • its_fundamental
    fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported

    @IGcom @Therichardralph @IBKR Says the company whose platform is down at a crucial time of day as market opens in US. I would suggest looking at ii - they are a quality operation unlike IG. IG will just disappoint.

  • dv8or1
    DV8OR (@dv8or1) reported

    @IGcom what has happened to your customer service?? I have been trying to connect with someone via WhatsApp, phone and email and haven’t got a response…!!! This is becoming unacceptable and is enough to make me reconsider my account.

  • JJJorange
    dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported

    @IGcom @financialombuds If anyone @IGcom is reading this, I still have had no acknowledgement from my support request sent Friday. I emailed yesterday as follow up for the complaints process.

  • Smudgedann
    smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported

    @DavidBurton1971 @Aquis_Exchange @IGcom Need a credible solution for this. What benefits does this migration offer customers that that outweighs the aggravation for holders of Aquis shares

    @IGcom still cant login

  • 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!

  • stuppytrader
    STUPPYTRADER (@stuppytrader) reported

    @IGClientHelp I’ve been trying since 6 Aug to get answers on MT5 position limits and split-order pricing. I was referred to Customer Experience, but have had no response beyond GIO..; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?

    @IGcom Good podcast. It would be even better if you got mirror advice. 2 Terrible mirrors in the background.

    @Blowster85 @Butterheart886 One issue is @IGcom stopping trading in it in June ..might havexan impact if forced sellers..I've yet to find a broker I can transfer to

    @IGcom What's happening with your desktop site and mobile app?? Both went down simultaneously just after the US opened today? No response from the helpdesk.
