    Jess-No flags because I actually am British (@JessSalop) reported

    @RhysBenjamin @englandcricket @IGcom Having stuck with Pope this far, I think they should have kept him in but dropped him down the order. As Travis Head did, one of the other senior batters should have had the stones to volunteer to go up the order.

    Anyone else experiencing problems with IG SB's. Live dealing on charts doesn't show anymore?? @IGcom

    @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.)

    @englandcricket @IGcom If the run stays away and the boys bat the overs they cruise home here. Imagine knocking them off 0 down

    @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

    @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!

  • 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!

    @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.

    @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.

    @IGcom hi, I requested a part cash transfer which was confirmed again by email but have got a message that my stock holdings are being transferred. Not sure why this confusion. Can you please help

  • trader_nomad
    Trader nomad (@trader_nomad) reported

    Do not try to open the account with @IGcom it is a nightmare. I sent my personal documents, two different bank account statement from two banks for address verification yet they claim for six weeks it is not enough defying their own rules!!! Further more telephone number they claim they can not reach although I am talking with their support on WhatsApp from that number! Completely ridicolous

    @englandcricket @IGcom The worst bowling attack I've ever seen

    @englandcricket @IGcom Having to watch these clips here because @virginmedia provide such a shocking service to its customers. Not been able to watch anything since Wednesday. Bravo

    @adstrader @IGcom Reckon that’s a clerical error. Would be surprised if it isn’t all of them once they realise

  • wa7ermelon
    Watermelõn 🍉 (@wa7ermelon) reported

    @Mr_K2015 @BarnyardBull72 @IGcom nope unfortunately, I contacted support the other week to get them to add it but nothing since. Can buy on most other platforms.

    @IGcom My L2 is not stream trade data - is there a problem? Anyone else having issues?

    @billericaybaggy @moving_charlie @IGcom Cost of money goes up = asset prices go down. It's not rocket science.

    @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.

    @Blowster85 @Butterheart886 One issue is @IGcom stopping trading in it in June ..might havexan impact if forced sellers..I've yet to find a broker I can transfer to

    @IGClientHelp withdrawals getting denied, no reason explained. Email sent and now account cannot login. Of course this happens when the weekend hits.

  • whatsamata8
    WhatsaMata8 (@whatsamata8) reported

    @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

    I would just like to thank @IGcom for the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. You really don’t care about your customers, just your profits.

  • 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.

    @maneco1964 @IGcom Forgot my phone today, just found out $50 barrier is broken 👍

  • BezosRic
    Ric₿ezos (@BezosRic) reported

    @DonaldPond6 @IGcom Yes, wonder if the decision was made further down the chain. If the CEO was aware that's an absolute shocker. Might be an opportunity for @vladtenev at Robinhood to steal some more UK market share by just offering better customer experiences.

    @JJJorange @IGcom @financialombuds Same issue for me… useless customer service
