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!

ForGodsGlory (@MojoSnowman) reported@IGcom BEWARE! Klarna allows fraud and you'll still have to pay!!! They say you're protected but their "fraud dept" is a fraud. They find every excuse NOT to help you and just keep taking your monthly payment, even when you didnt recieve the item because of criminals that use Klarna on fraudulent websites (allowed by Klarna). Is fraud commonly accepted by Klarna without any consumer protection? Klarna has a history of this. Just check out all the Facebook comments on their Page. It seems there are no safeguards for being defrauded and still having to pay Klarna, even though plenty of proof of fraud is given as evidence to Klarna's "fraud" dept. Klarna's customer service staff is incapable of handling fraud to the frustration and dismay of customers. Are fraudulent companies treated better than customers at Klarna? In July I ordered a product online that never arrived. I used Klarna to pay thinking it would be convenient. It turns out the website was a fake, but was able to ACCEPT PAYMENT USING KLARNA. I gave their CS rep all the incriminating proof of my claim but after 24 hours was told in an email that my claim was invalid. This is a very valid claim with more than enough proof for a 10 year old child to understand, yet Klarna's fraud dept obviously didn't take the time to actually "investigate" my claim. Since then I've spoken to several of Klarna's agents only to be told to wait for the "Fraud Dept" to contact me. Today another payment has been charged. They won't stop payments. The CS rep today said he can't stop the payments. I hope you can see how frustrating this is. I am now paying Klarna for a product that I never recieved, but the criminals who defrauded me GOT PAID BY KLARNA. - How many other Klarna customers are being treated this way? - How many fraudulent companies do business with, and get paid by Klarna? Just check the comments on their FB page. Klarna's customer service reps and fraud department are obviously unreliable and will NOT protect consumers. They act as if they dont care about theft and fraud as long as they get their money. Is this the sentiment of the entire company all the way to the top? Sebastian Siemiatowski and Michael Moritz? It seems they care only about the money they put in their own pockets even when criminals use their services and steal the money from consumers. This is Bad and Evil business!

Kryptogem110x (@kryptogem110x) reported@IGcom Important for IG customers: If you experienced incorrect balances, unjustified spread/fee charges, or trades allowed on non-covered funds, please file a formal complaint with BaFin (DE) or the FCA (UK) now. I can help affected customers draft submissions (checklist + evidence pac

Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported@bonker99 @TradersDesk7jd @IGClientHelp Just stupid isn’t it. I guess that’s what happens when you make it free. They earn betting against us

IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported@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.

RightOn (@RightOn10) reported@englandcricket @IGcom High quality act . Class Act through and through
-
G. (@LArsenal96) reported@englandcricket @IGcom I do think not putting Jacks or Stokes at 3 is stupid. Instead you wanna chuck a 21 year old in the deep end for no reason? Pope didnt bat at 3 when he first came in & neither should Bethell.

Tom Morris (@TomMorris16) reported@englandcricket @IGcom The worst bowling attack I've ever seen
-
Steven Rowe (@Stevenrowe25) reported@AkshithJha88423 @englandcricket @IGcom Sometimes u have to lower ur expectations I guess cos of the fact it’s very hard to find a good opening combo these 2 do bat well together so maybe they just have to take this stability at the top is a good thing

10xHunter (@10xHunter) reported@IGcom fix your website. The buy and sell buttons are not updating the live price. Also, your AI helpbot is terrible.

Matt (@MattySP500) reportedAnyone else having issues with the charts on IG index @IGcom @IGClientHelp

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?

Rich On Macro (@RichOnMacro) reported@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!
-
Matt (@MattySP500) reported@IGcom But no charts, so you have to flick between accounts... pain in the arse really. Better platforms out there for crypto Will you be able to trade on high volatility days as you do have a tendency of having "We are experiencing issues" on high volatility days.

IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported@its_fundamental @IGcom Are you still seeing the discrepancy in your funds or cash balances? It’s possible this was due to weekend downtime or routine maintenance updates. If the issue is ongoing, please DM us and we’ll look into it right away.

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.

Andy Gill (@andygill76) reported@DinoGTFC @englandcricket @IGcom Fair point. Reckon if Potts can get that handicap down to single figures he might have more of a shot.
