IG Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Joel Deakin (@JMHDeakin) reported@GeordiePhilUK Provide a new option great - default for all customers awful 😑! Part of the #IGG @IGcom push to alienate customers.
-
Breakout Capital Ventures (@BreakoutCV) reported@djp4976 @IGcom @LondonSouthEast I get live trade quotes with IG, only have an isa but there’s no alteration to the service from my experience! Never had RSP or L2
-
dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported@IGcom @financialombuds If anyone @IGcom is reading this, I still have had no acknowledgement from my support request sent Friday. I emailed yesterday as follow up for the complaints process.
-
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!
-
TheSphinx 🐿️ (@TheSphinxRocks) reported@IGcom You seem to be having problems the last few days. Data migration not going well?
-
Molibar (@Molibar) reported@IGcom So is IG down now, or is it just me?
-
Ryno (@Mister_Ryno) reported@IGcom What's happening with your desktop site and mobile app?? Both went down simultaneously just after the US opened today? No response from the helpdesk.
-
Perihelion (@PeriHelion96002) reported@IGcom The platform's fecked. No help or communications to customers.
-
AnnRaj (@anandhichetlur) reported@IGcom @IGSquawk IG is not handling my isa transfer in request well. AI based help centre or WhatsApp doesn’t help. On the phone for 15 minutes to hear the same message. Very disappointing service. can you help please
-
Carl (@Tyranus2010) reportedIs there a issue with you app? My open positions are not updating and so im unable to close or edit them. @IGcom
-
Matt (@MattySP500) reported@IGClientHelp mobile login on iphone not working ?
-
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.
-
Neverasked (@DCBW2025) reported@IGcom Why is the service down and when will it be back online? No announcement, support page not working. Jokers.
-
Alan McGee (@Alan_McGee_UK) reported@IGcom Good podcast. It would be even better if you got mirror advice. 2 Terrible mirrors in the background.
-
Nagu Lingampalli (@LingampalliNagu) reported@IGClientHelp I can’t login to Singapore IG platform and can’t call or interact with your chatbot.. not sure what’s happening
-
dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported@IGClientHelp So next steps is complaints to see if we can conclude an understanding. There is no point displaying a closed positon to a customer and then arbitrarily reconciling to another point in time.
-
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.
-
Joel Deakin (@JMHDeakin) reported@conradcarter66 @IGcom They don't appear to be content with irritating customers by degrading the share trading service apparently even providing a service is currently a struggle :/ - perhaps they also have management issues that're now affecting operations as well.
-
11invest (@11invest) reported@IGcom Have you been hacked? Can’t get into anything and even your platform status page is down. Losing so much money as I can’t close trades
-
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.
-
howsmygf (@howsmygf) reported@IGcom anyone can login?
-
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?
-
🅰️ndrew Brahms (@inthe_flowers) reported@CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 Only issue I have is some tiny float stocks in the UK are really difficult to execute on T212 compared to IG - i.e. I have put a limit buy for the same price on both platforms, IG executed a lot quicker than T212. Maybe the lesson is to avoid illiquid garbage stock
-
Gonzalo Canete (@GonzaloCanete) reportedHi @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
-
Daveodee (@daveodee) reported@GeordiePhilUK @IGcom @IGClientHelp I see IG as quiet on here as their customer service was during the outage.
-
⚡️GeordiePhil⚡️ (@GeordiePhilUK) reportedIG advertising on the up IG client service tanking Over the last year the quality of service all round from @IGcom has been shocking. @IGClientHelp what is going on!
-
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.)
-
forex 🚜🧑🏻🌾🇬🇧 (@1forextrader1) reported@IGcom Ig down again!!!!!
-
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 substantive response; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?
