IG Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheNoughtyGrad The Noughty Graduate (@TheNoughtyGrad) reported

    @IGcom Criminal. I suspect you will lose many customers for this. Contributing to distrust in retail brokers who have not structured their activities in such a way as to provide a fair and equitable market for long-side retail investors. Glad I am not a customer - blacklisted. $GME

  • SellarsIan Ian Sellars (@SellarsIan) reported from Pickering, England

    @IGClientHelp are you aware of log in problems system keeps logging me out ?

  • LifeIsTheGame3 Life Is The Game (@LifeIsTheGame3) reported

    @jasoncartwright @Stevolution76 @IGcom Im nor part of it, but nice people who become billionare with this are :) check what happened to stupid robinhood owners.

  • Imraj58714093 Raj (@Imraj58714093) reported

    @granty3333 @IGcom This is called naked shorting, not sure if your thick brain can comprehend it but meaning they went all in shorting ******** out of GME expecting no retail traders to figure this out. Now that we are all going long, they are to cover their shorts soon.

  • ManLikeBugsy Anthony (@ManLikeBugsy) reported

    @IGClientHelp Your account is almost active. Before you start dealing, please contact us on +44 207 892 6886. Been trying to call for 2 days it just puts me through to music, live help doesn't answer, please activate my account.

  • deleted_user546 Just_a_simple_painter (@deleted_user546) reported

    @JSyborg @IGcom @SharePickers Wouldn't have any issue opening or closing if it was actually a free market.

  • kaushik_kunaal Kunaal Kaushik (@kaushik_kunaal) reported

    @IGcom why am I not allowed to Slv. This poor quality platform is a criminal enterprise and I’m taking my money out once some orders actually go through. More painful than buying crypto in 2016.

  • kpasamd DB (@kpasamd) reported

    @IGClientHelp every day I can’t login. What is going on with this platform?

  • kjbiggar KJB (@kjbiggar) reported

    @IGClientHelp @SellarsIan Is this issue being resolved??

  • Tradethetrendco Tradethetrend (@Tradethetrendco) reported

    @IGClientHelp AGAIN! This morning still errors, 4th session in a row now, Randomly being logged out from the trading platform!

  • FColoe Fred Coloe (@FColoe) reported

    @IGClientHelp hi guys. There appears to be another technical issue this morning. Charts are not loading properly on mobile devices. Chart settings are being deleted or returned to default each time I log out/in.

  • kjbiggar KJB (@kjbiggar) reported

    @IGClientHelp having issues with multiple logins this morning. Login on my PC but as soon as I login on Ap on tablet or phone - boots me out of PC, login on PC boots me out of aps. Had this happen on another occasion awhile back

  • jczhang2010 jczhang (@jczhang2010) reported

    @IGcom This doesn't make sense. System was down during key hours on Friday so could not trade, now buying is totally not allowed. What's a professional platform! What's a professional decision!

  • jamieguru jamieguru (@jamieguru) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have been attempting to log in for two days, where do I find the IG live chat support?

  • caino_wins CAINO (@caino_wins) reported

    @RawlinsonJw @IGcom Yes that popped up on the app that $GME is no longer tradeable on the platform, wasn't able to buy or sell last week anyway as the app was down! 🙄

  • nigelpais Nigel Pais (@nigelpais) reported

    @IGcom Has anyone else been executed at worst price on the open - a million miles from the order level?

  • radulf36 Fludar (@radulf36) reported

    @IGClientHelp Ready to crash again today at US open?

  • Therealhughes Chris Hughes (@Therealhughes) reported

    @IGcom no longer offering GME or AMC In order to prioritise the service we give our existing clients, IG is not currently allowing any new positions to be opened on the US stocks GameStop and AMC Entertainment. Clients are still able to close existing positions.

  • anti_atlas_ DJ Ohm / Visions (@anti_atlas_) reported

    @IGcom - you will go down with the rest of the Wall Street crooks in the aftermath of all of this. Halting buys but allowing sells is not legitimate and clear market manipulating. You would have thought you would have learned from what has happened to RH

  • bridey177 scott mcbride (@bridey177) reported

    @IGClientHelp Just wondering whether I can expect your site to go down again at NYSE open at 2.30pm to get shafted again ?

  • SDN2788 Simon (@SDN2788) reported

    @dfajardito @IGcom @FSCS Hargreaves Lansdown although they’ve been having teething problems at market open every last week.

  • caino_wins CAINO (@caino_wins) reported

    What's the odds @IGcom goes down when markets open? #silversqueeze

  • chrisfernandior Chris Fernand (@chrisfernandior) reported

    @IGcom Meaning: Due to extreme volatility, and to prioritise the service we give our existing clients: HEDGE FUNDS, we are not allowing any new oppositions to be opened on $GME 🚀 and $AMC 🚀 because if retail traders keep buying $GME and $AMC our clients: the HEDGE FUNDS

  • cryptoify Cryptoify (@cryptoify) reported

    @IGcom Scam rigged everyone in the UK complain to the FCA and Financial Ombudsman There needs to be prison time for market manipulators. $GME

  • LifeIsTheGame3 Life Is The Game (@LifeIsTheGame3) reported

    @jasoncartwright @Stevolution76 @IGcom If it runs bad blame IG not people playing stonks

  • Dajobix ireallywonder (@Dajobix) reported

    @IGcom Using volatility as an excuse? **** you @IGcom. You broke your own terms of service. Goodbye.....I'm closing my account

  • kjbiggar KJB (@kjbiggar) reported

    @SellarsIan @IGClientHelp I received a direct message from IG saying they were working to fix this

  • JuceeRob Rob (@JuceeRob) reported

    @IGClientHelp Please can you advise of the best Telephone number and opening hours for a U.K. customer please.

  • yodahanforce Yoda (@yodahanforce) reported

    @IGcom being shite again, cant add to #odx coming up with false error

  • OllyAlgae Olly Carter (@OllyAlgae) reported

    @IGClientHelp How long will it take to receive a considered reply from your help desk? And can you assure me that this will never happen again?
