    @IGcom It is down, and as usual no feedback from their clients support.

    @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!

  • djp4976
    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

  • InvestingJulian
    Julian (@InvestingJulian) reported

    @igcom it’s working now. Why no announcement or customer service?

    @IGcom Is there ANYONE answering your phones or Whatsapp Help messages ??!!… now been on hold for nearly 10 minutes !… this is NOT a great service at all. How can i get help to log in to my account?… am unable to via either mobile or laptop !

  • plaste
    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.)

  • investing256
    JJ (@investing256) reported

    @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 ?

  • MattBrookes3
    MattBrookes (@MattBrookes3) reported

    @LordBadshot @Smudgedann @IGcom I use them, and must be out of the loop as I’m not aware of anything. What’s the problem, and should I be concerned?

  • avinashkaware01
    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.

  • ShareSpeculator
    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.

  • Woodywudpeck
    gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reported

    Just shows you how bad @IGcom are ..I have a stop at 49.7p with spreadex but that WASN'T triggered so they have not used genuine prices. Complaint sent

    @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

  • djp4976
    Dave (@djp4976) reported

    If it ain’t bad enough having @IGcom take away live quotes without warning, we now have @LondonSouthEast displaying no trades

    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

    @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??

  • inthe_flowers

    @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

  • Paul_S1979
    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.

  • gskandola79
    gkandola79 (@gskandola79) reported

    @IGcom Sort this problem out now what are you playing at😡

  • 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!

  • 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
