    @whatsamata8 @IGcom Sorry about that, we know how frustrating it is. Try typing “agent” or “speak to an adviser” in the chatbot to reach a human. If you like, DM us your account ID and a brief issue and we’ll look into it and help.

    @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 Some of your API documentation is out-of-date, and it seems impossible to speak to an actual human on a phone call.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?

  • Heetan001

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp I’m very dissatisfied and disappointed with your service team. They have finally responded but the lack of care and attention has been outrageous.

    @englandcricket @IGcom Tough on Potts. Shows the errors of selection on tour and past three years. No real alternatives. Too easy to stay in the team, as long as you have the ‘attributes’

    Reality (@Factchecker2000) reported

    @ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Nah, the last 3 tours were just as bad. 0-3* 0-4 0-4 0-5 England cricket is trash. The only question mark is how the far are they so arrogant?!?!

    @englandcricket @IGcom Terrible team

  • ShareSpeculator
    ShareSpeccy (@ShareSpeculator) reported

    @Woodywudpeck @IGcom IG should send the request to the II within 2 or 3 days. After that it’s down to ii how quickly they process the request. By law, I believe ii have 15 working days to process it if it’s a cash-only transfer, otherwise they have up to 30 calendar days.

    @DinoGTFC @englandcricket @IGcom Fair point. Reckon if Potts can get that handicap down to single figures he might have more of a shot.

  • 3rdManView
    Third Man View (@3rdManView) reported

    @englandcricket @IGcom Two changes, big questions. 👀 Fresh legs in Bethell & Atkinson, but at 3-0 down, England need more than changes, they need answers. 💥🏏 Boxing Day pressure just went up. 🔥#Ashes #3rdManView

    @IGcom I've just heard IG are withdrawing the RSP service from your stockbroking accounts. Is this true ? If so, why have you not given customers several months notice so we have time to move accounts elsewhere ?

  • IGClientHelp
    IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported

    @Mr_K2015 @IGcom Sorry to hear you're having trouble. We'll DM you shortly to understand more about the issue and help get it sorted as quickly as possible.

  • BuksNCofy
    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!

    @englandcricket @IGcom What an awful bowling line up

    @IGcom Wouldn't bother with IG. If you have a problem.. its impossible to get hold of a human.

  • its_fundamental
    fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGcom Just withdrew money from my account and it appeared in my bank account instantly (as is the case mainly). I withdrew money on Friday at 3:31 pm to put it in savings ac for weekend - still not arrived at my bank NEED CONSISTENCY OF SERVICE - LOST INTEREST

  • NickHol06

    @IGcom having issues getting a quote anyone else ????

  • InfoJelt
    jelt (@InfoJelt) reported

    @IGcom no one answering phone or chat for 2 hours. Someone or a lot of people need to complain to the FCA about this scam company.

  • Mark_Newton1
    Mark Newton (@Mark_Newton1) reported

    @djp4976 @IGcom There customer service is zero, call centre staff giving out wrong information. Philippines and Eastern Europe call centres useless. Their IT infrastructure is 3rd world & needs upgrading, but they spend 000's millions on new acquisitions to the detriment of the platform.

    @IGcom how do I get to speak to a human to resolve an issue? I’m trapped in AI chatbot hell where it keeps telling me to do something that doesn’t work, over and over again

  • DanielgDan

    @englandcricket @IGcom Damn that looks innocuous

  • 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!

    @ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Certainly the worst prepared

    Tom Norman (@plaste) reported

    @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.)

    @IGcom Had issues with IG? DM — I’ll help file to FCA/BaFin & offer a small compensation for verifiable admin work. Genuine cases only.

    @McAdamNo5 @englandcricket @IGcom Top class?? Two of the worst, one just a little better than the other, but both lousy with pathetic bowling attacks

  • GonzaloCanete
    Gonzalo Canete (@GonzaloCanete) reported

    Hi @IGcom I opened an account with you to test the quality of your services. I have deposited a considerable amount of funds and have kept the account active through various trading transactions. I have been trying for weeks to resolve a simple query regarding the status of my account and your trading terms. I have been unable to get a response via chat, email or telephone. Customer service seems non-existent, apart from an AI agent on the website to handle general enquiries. If you are reading this, please contact me privately #IG #IGMarkets

    @IGcom Hi there having problem trying to complete form w8 ?.I emailed your CS got a complicated reply. They say the form expired. I find that strange. How can a form expire? Can you send a fresh form ?Was looking for better customer support.Thank u

    @Smudgedann @IGcom Not a happy ship. New mgmt seem to be doing their best to destroy what was a great brand. Trouble is they are printing cash with all this vol so mgmt will believe their own hype. Clients will vote with their feet imo.

    @kev123703 @IGcom It’s not the borrow that’s the problem, 10 minutes after Harper requests him to get borrow, he says they are short 100m of stock! Even with borrow, then it would be highly unethical to slot 5 different banks in £20m each just before a -8% announcement! You’d get cut off from all!
