Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
AK (@avinashkaware01) reported@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.
-
Mahakala (@waimeazach) reported@IGcom @PiQMarkets This is not true. Quantum computing solves very specific problems, it will not compete with gpu’s
-
Paul S (@Paul_S1979) reported@IGcom shocking customer service today. Executed an order way off market and now been trying to get through to someone for over an hour. Seriously considering moving my business if this is the norm.
-
Tortoise investor (@InvestTortoise) reported.@IGcom has been down for at least an hour but no acknowledgement from the company on their website or social media channels. V poor. @breoncorcoran
-
MikeN (@Mikenarm) reported@djp4976 @IGcom They need to sort their **** out. Terrible atm
-
Usifoh_J 💙🇳🇬🇬🇧 (@johnusifoh) reported@IGcom Your Trading platform is down for almost an hour now and no communication or updates when this would be resolved.
-
DartronTrading (@DartronTrading) reported@MBdaytrading @IGcom I noticed that even II was not working around 12 noon. Has since been rectified, so maybe a wider issue today.
-
cynicalanalyst (@cynicalanalyst2) reported@11invest @IGcom You're having problems as well?
-
Andy Smith (@andyajsmith1) reported@TheMoneySponge @IGcom App down too
-
Andrewdc208 (@andrewdc208) reported@IGClientHelp did ur system just go down?
-
Iain Clarke (@iain__clarke) reported@IGcom @IGClientHelp your platform is down. When will it be open?
-
Julian (@InvestingJulian) reported@IGcom what is going on? Still can’t login over an hour later, no status update or anything
-
Darren Neary (@neary_darren) reported@TheMoneySponge @IGcom Any support on where to switch ? Such a shame it was the best platform for me
-
Dave (@djp4976) reported@IGcom You’re going to lose a hell of a lot of investors from your platform shortly due to these changes coming in, looks like no more ‘Request for Quote’ orders, limit and market orders only, wouldn’t be so bad if your orders actually got filled, you’ve always been useless with those, seems like only US stocks get filled with U.K. stocks sat there being unfilled all day even when there’s plenty of stock available within that order price
-
wsbx (@wsbxsg) reported@IGcom Down and no updates.just manage to logged in for 1 min to close 2 of my 4 positions before getting kicked out again. Seriously this is pathetic.
-
Jarvy55 (@Jarvy55) reported@henrymcivor @IGcom Terrible customer service no replys to emails.
-
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 !
-
gkandola79 (@gskandola79) reported@IGcom Can’t get into my account… fix it straightaway, how can someone trade with an account that can’t be logged into @IGClientHelp @IGcom
-
peter (@A7068AP) reported@IGSquawk @IGcom @IGTradingFloor Please "fix" Wall St, daily options.
-
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?
-
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?
-
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!
-
Humaira A (@BuksNCofy) reported@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!
-
Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported@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?
-
Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported@IGcom I have been struggling since friday to create a live account (7x), response from IG all 7x, "sorry we are having technical issues". I sent an email twice to accountopening but no reply as yet. Can someone help please?
-
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.
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reported@IGcom not working on companies like vod even!!!
-
Kluedio (@kluedio) reported@Richard85801567 @IGcom wtf are these ***** doing fix your platform ffs Millions of dollars being traded
-
11invest (@11invest) reported@IGcom what on earth is going on with your website and app both going down just before US market open?? How are we meant to manage and close positions!?
-
ShareSpeccy (@ShareSpeculator) reported@baz_trading @IGcom Hmm, yeah. Just read it. Sounds awful. Sounds like it’s going to be the same as Trading212. I’ll see what it’s like but if so, I’ll transfer my ISA and the others I manage elsewhere. Shame.
