    @IGClientHelp Deposited money 4th May. On 9th May still not in my account. Asked live-help to assist. They gave me email helpdesk in UK. No reply to that after 12 days! No money in account. Just spoke to livehelp who now cannot find the email. Appaling lack of service

  • CallumColman2 Callum Colman (@CallumColman2) reported

    @IGcom @IChronicle Youve got the manpower to tweet and article every 30mins but nobodys around to answer the damn phone?! Prorities people!

  • zarazaib1 Zara (@zarazaib1) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi im having some issues with my funds. I need help urgently, no one is picking up so contacting here

  • R16025131 Can't think of a cool name yet (@R16025131) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi @IGClientHelp @IGcom sent all the info, still no reply or resolution to the problem. Getting really frustrating as it's been ongoing for 4 days now. I'm sorry to say, really bad customer service so far!

  • BlueflushUK Blueflush (@BlueflushUK) reported

    @IGClientHelp This issue has still not been resolved - pretty poor to have such a widespread issue with your charts. Impacts all the backwards looking TA indicators.

  • R16025131 Can't think of a cool name yet (@R16025131) reported

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp fantastic broker but terrible one too when problems occur & u try getting them to sort only for them to send u back & forth & no success. Only a madman repeats same things & expects a different result each time 🙈

  • MirrorTradeTSL No_Fear_Crypto_Novice (@MirrorTradeTSL) reported

    @IGClientHelp hi .. is it possible to call your help desk to close an open bitcoin position. I didn't realise that the market closed with IG on a Fri night 10pm.

  • lasch111 wrhhn hgbjhbb (@lasch111) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hello help team, I have a question Why is there no positioning tool which shows me my P/L, like where my StopLoss and Profit taking is before I am about to take a trade?

  • pauln241 Paul Newman (@pauln241) reported

    @IGcom I love your OLED TV's, but please fix the issues with C9 OLED, Atmos lag when going from Xbox to TV then TV to AMP and only 06Hz Dolby Vision. or could I trade my C9 for new OLED TV to fix issues? I can buy another one as I also have a B6 OLED. Thanks.

  • Saviomsilva Savio silva (@Saviomsilva) reported

    Ig platform issue @IGcom Unable to close nasdaq 100 Called support and was told is sporadic but it isnt two friends having same issue

  • CallumColman2 Callum Colman (@CallumColman2) reported

    @IGcom Customer service advice, allow people to withdraw and also answer the damn phones, you should already know these. Its not tricky

  • PaulCBryant Paul Bryant (@PaulCBryant) reported

    @IGClientHelp hi, Need urgent assistance logging in after changing phones, no one answering on your help desk

  • Bowen85AI AndY B (@Bowen85AI) reported

    @zarazaib1 @IGcom @rosbergxracing They lock you out of live trades with no warning, stop you opening new positions to hedge your bets and lock your stop loss so you can’t lower it to rife out the manipulation. Spread betting. Market volatility they said. Platforms crashing like stock cars but we don’t have issues

  • connor607 Connor (@connor607) reported

    @IGcom having technical issues with the App once again, think it’s time to find a new platform, yours is outdated and unreliable

  • eddy_tedster Eddy edster (@eddy_tedster) reported

    @IGcom Will there be a Client Help account there too and if so will it be possible to get help unlike it seems to be on Twitter?? @IGClientHelp is always completely unresponsive

  • connor607 Connor (@connor607) reported

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp having technical issues with the App once again, 30 minutes on the phone and still not answered, think it’s time to find a new platform, IG is junk

  • R16025131 Can't think of a cool name yet (@R16025131) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGcom an utter disgrace in terms of customer service. Haven't been able to trade on my account for over a week due to an unknown reason, missed a number of trade opps yet nothing but false promises & excuses from IG to resolve. Empty apologies!

  • darkkhorse42 Charles Oakden (@darkkhorse42) reported

    @TheFCA @IGClientHelp oh the irony of being called IG Client Help. No help available, currently on hold for over half an hour AGAIN! still no answer. Simple issue, promised it would be resolved - not done yet

  • connor607 Connor (@connor607) reported

    @IGClientHelp Got through after 45 min and issue resolved

  • divelizardwa Rebecca Gill (@divelizardwa) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi, why can't I talk to anybody in client help, I have been hung up on 5 times on the help phone line, I get you are busy, but this is beyond ridiculous!

  • PaulCBryant Paul Bryant (@PaulCBryant) reported

    @IGClientHelp hi, is there a help desk available today? Need assistance logging in after changing phones

  • fabios23639271 fabios (@fabios23639271) reported

    @loveisaduel @IGClientHelp @IGClientHelp need help can somone call?

  • zarazaib1 Zara (@zarazaib1) reported

    @IGClientHelp What does that mean? No one emailed me with instructions or anything and still waiting for that call back. Honestly at this point I think I should just withdraw out of ig! Super disappointed with the service

  • zarazaib1 Zara (@zarazaib1) reported

    @IGcom It’s been all day!! Please do something! This is such bad service

  • teej67 Teejay67 (@teej67) reported

    @IGcom Listen, I just want to be able to shout loudly into my mobile things like "Buy the dip..short that sucker to Hades....hold till it tops out..when does the WAZIDEK open in Asia?...close up our positions...damn, we took a bath; just got too greedy", while wearing red braces?

  • AdamYi12317668 Adam (@AdamYi12317668) reported

    @JMahony_IG @IGcom Probably down another 30% soon. Patience

  • 1980adamski ADAMSKI-LSE (@1980adamski) reported
