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

    @IGcom Can't seem to get a hold of anyone here IG...got an unexpected error on my login and can't access the account. the AI chat bot is frozen or it's busy

  • ItsBrandon_FM
    Brands (@ItsBrandon_FM) reported

    @IGcom this login error needs to be fixed immediately. Nobody can access their accounts and there has been no update on what’s happening

  • Jasonhopps

    @IGcom would be helpful if your website worked, #IG. Down for ages an no updates, no customer help?

  • tardigrade911
    Trafalgar (@tardigrade911) reported

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

  • frankzondervan2
    Frankz (@frankzondervan2) reported

    @IGcom can I now only set buy and sell limits to trade? I thought @ii_couk were bad, but this isn't great

  • options_222

    @IGcom @Polymarket Damn right 😬

  • Molibar
    Molibar (@Molibar) reported

    @IGcom So is IG down now, or is it just me?

  • A7068AP
    peter (@A7068AP) reported

    @IGcom please can somebody pick up the phone on the helpdesk - I am having difficulty opening an account and some help would be appreciated @ChrisB_IG

  • Aimlesstrader1
    Aimless (@Aimlesstrader1) reported

    @IGcom @IGcom your site is down just before US open, your customer service channels are useless and you haven't even publicly acknowledged it's down. Come on, at least let your clients know what is going on

  • 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 ?

  • LordHofH
    Lord H (@LordHofH) reported

    @IGcom Your trading platform has been down for an hour now for everyone, and no comms to users whatsoever. Sort your Sh.t out for gods sake !

  • network_surrey
    Dougparkspropertynest (@network_surrey) reported

    @IGcom any reason i keep getting ‘log in error please try later’ when trying to log in through your app ??

  • iKoppie
    iKopite 🏆*20 (@iKoppie) reported

    @IGcom Can you at least update on the website outage? Zero comms or response from support

  • BezosRic
    Ric₿ezos (@BezosRic) reported

    @DonaldPond6 @IGcom Yes, wonder if the decision was made further down the chain. If the CEO was aware that's an absolute shocker. Might be an opportunity for @vladtenev at Robinhood to steal some more UK market share by just offering better customer experiences.

  • QuantumStateX
    QuantumX (@QuantumStateX) reported

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

  • JMHDeakin
    Joel Deakin (@JMHDeakin) reported

    Oh dear @IGcom appears to be down 😑

  • alhellison
    alexander ellison (@alhellison) reported

    @CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 Also use IBKR for normal account. AG bell has good access to most uk micro caps and most fees low but FX is a problem. Maybe split UK and non uk to two accounts?

  • Molibar
    Molibar (@Molibar) reported

    @Tiboti888 @IGcom Thanks, I thought they singled me out for being so bad at this.

  • 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

  • LairdElmski
    LairdElmski (@LairdElmski) reported

    @CasinoCapital @IGcom Sold this am @46.15 ..can't help myself...short June and July puts still thou Great call ..hope you stay on board

    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

    First time I open a position with @IGcom in month's and now can't log in, I'm glad I've got the majority of investments now with @Trading212 🙏 Bad show @IGClientHelp 😡

How to interpret these reports

Direct reports are submitted by visitors. Locations may be estimated from their connection or supplied by the reporter. A low local count does not establish that service is working; the service-wide status and local report totals describe different areas. How our outage detection works
