    @wealthelf @HLInvest @IGcom I'm trying out Trading212 for an ISA and not having any issues so far. Had it for about 6 months. (Though was an expensive spread for a smallcap.)

    @RhysBenjamin @englandcricket @IGcom Agree to an extent but he’s been poor for a while. This series he’s been another opener though, losing an opener in the first over far too many times. Sibley had a good season and should have been in the squad for stability at the top of the order

    @IGClientHelp Your AI Bot chat is worthless, and consistently gives incorrect information. Some of your API documentation is out-of-date, and it seems impossible to speak to an actual human on a phone call. How are we supposed to get any support?

    @englandcricket @IGcom Atkinson, Carse, Tongue and Jacks is without doubt the worst bowling attack of all test-playing nations. Aus to post 500+ in their first innings.

    @IGcom Step up with customer support... I have tried to reach your support for several days now. With email and with whatsapp but have got zero replys. Trying to open account... Not a very good first impression, though, as there is no customer service at all.

    @IGcom BEWARE! Klarna allows fraud and you'll still have to pay!!! They say you're protected but their "fraud dept" is a fraud. They find every excuse NOT to help you and just keep taking your monthly payment, even when you didnt recieve the item because of criminals that use Klarna on fraudulent websites (allowed by Klarna). Is fraud commonly accepted by Klarna without any consumer protection? Klarna has a history of this. Just check out all the Facebook comments on their Page. It seems there are no safeguards for being defrauded and still having to pay Klarna, even though plenty of proof of fraud is given as evidence to Klarna's "fraud" dept. Klarna's customer service staff is incapable of handling fraud to the frustration and dismay of customers. Are fraudulent companies treated better than customers at Klarna? In July I ordered a product online that never arrived. I used Klarna to pay thinking it would be convenient. It turns out the website was a fake, but was able to ACCEPT PAYMENT USING KLARNA. I gave their CS rep all the incriminating proof of my claim but after 24 hours was told in an email that my claim was invalid. This is a very valid claim with more than enough proof for a 10 year old child to understand, yet Klarna's fraud dept obviously didn't take the time to actually "investigate" my claim. Since then I've spoken to several of Klarna's agents only to be told to wait for the "Fraud Dept" to contact me. Today another payment has been charged. They won't stop payments. The CS rep today said he can't stop the payments. I hope you can see how frustrating this is. I am now paying Klarna for a product that I never recieved, but the criminals who defrauded me GOT PAID BY KLARNA. - How many other Klarna customers are being treated this way? - How many fraudulent companies do business with, and get paid by Klarna? Just check the comments on their FB page. Klarna's customer service reps and fraud department are obviously unreliable and will NOT protect consumers. They act as if they dont care about theft and fraud as long as they get their money. Is this the sentiment of the entire company all the way to the top? Sebastian Siemiatowski and Michael Moritz? It seems they care only about the money they put in their own pockets even when criminals use their services and steal the money from consumers. This is Bad and Evil business!

    @IGcom a real prince amongst thieves when it comes to the online brokers. Not only offering a ubiquitous service, but giving it gratis and not telling their clients what they can and can’t invest in. Take note @HLInvest and Interactive Investor

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

    @chippycapital I actually like IG generally, am probably one of their longest-standing customers (last century!), but damn @IGClientHelp they'll just ignore you when you try and suggest tiny UX changes that would improve their systems. Am on verge of shutting all my accounts except spreadbet

    I would just like to thank @IGcom for the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. You really don’t care about your customers, just your profits.

    @igcom @igclienthelp Been waiting for 2 hours on your WhatsApp ‘service’ + live chat with no response. Simple requests go through convoluted processes; I was promised a 3hr turnaround on a ‘ card verification’ that is still pending over 24hrs later? Shocking customer service!

    @rprasannag @englandcricket @IGcom I don't think they should be sent back. Support them. Did they do anything inappropriate?

  • its_fundamental
    fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported

    Any answer on the above. I have no interest in @UpholdInc and their offering so how do I stop having to look at you trying to shove it down your customers throats @IGClientHelp @IGcom - it is extremely annoying and should not be mandatory for a client to see every login.
