    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

    @IGClientHelp Extreme platform outage today. I was locked out of my account from 14:30 to 16:30 despite repeated login attempts. This system failure directly prevented me from closing my Daily US Tech 100 Call at DH152.1£, resulting in a great loss. IG should compensate for that.

    @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?

    @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 🙈

    @IGClientHelp would rather do this by phone but there is no number to call... My app and browser access to the platform gives and error page and clicking the status page also gives an error... Software update over the weekend??

    @GODOFFI @IGcom Actually really like the platform , but yes the issues are really frustrating

    @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 substantive response; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?

    @11invest @IGcom You're having problems as well?

    @GeordiePhilUK @IGcom @IGClientHelp I see IG as quiet on here as their customer service was during the outage.

  • network_surrey
    Dougparkspropertynest (@network_surrey) reported

    @IGcom is there ANYONE answering your phones or Whatsapp help messages ??!!!… not able to log in to my account via mobile or laptop and am finding it impossible to speak to anyone !!!… now been on hold for 9 minutes !

    @IGSquawk @IGcom have you not woken up yet? System down?

  • 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

  • InvestingJulian
    Julian (@InvestingJulian) reported

    @IGcom what is going on? Still can’t login over an hour later, no status update or anything

  • easterbunnycard
    easterbunnycard (@easterbunnycard) reported

    @IGcom Website, Android App, iOS App, Mobile Web App, and API are not processing login. It is poor management and poor service that you post this promotion but no information about your outage after more than 1 hour of outage. Time to look for another platform.

    It's No Joke. (@Read_That_Right) reported

    @2grokornot2grok @11invest @IGcom It's got to have something to do with it................to be honest I want to leave IG. too expensive.........too any issues like this. cheaper alternative about, but worried about the migration time as i've got active positions Long and anticipating a BO soon.

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

    @DickyVenter @The_Huntsman23 @IGcom Same issue; doesn't look like a hack though either, don't spread information like that

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

    Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGLabs @IGcom Been trying to get technical support for over a week. Nobody at your company replies to your website chat, whatsapp, or even messages on X. Every one of your support channels claims 24/7. This is disappointing

    been holding for @IGcom for over 30 mins ! awful

  • 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

  • InvestingJulian

    @igcom still can’t login after over an hour. Anyone know what’s going on?

    @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?

    @GeordiePhilUK Provide a new option great - default for all customers awful 😑! Part of the #IGG @IGcom push to alienate customers.

    @IGcom Basically a non existent client support, you better give back the losses we’re forced to take due to your technical error!!
