-
Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported@IGcom Client Services help desk referred the matter to backend team to investigate & resolve, still awaiting. I may be a very small fish but am a potential customer; very disappointed with your service.
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reported@IGcom so says goto status page then get this !! @IGcom This page is currently inactive and can only be viewed by team members. To see this page, sign in or request an account.
-
smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported@DavidBurton1971 @Aquis_Exchange @IGcom Need a credible solution for this. What benefits does this migration offer customers that that outweighs the aggravation for holders of Aquis shares
-
X (@adythompson) reportedFirst time I open a position with @IGcom in month's and now can't log in, I'm glad I've got the majority of investments now with @Trading212 🙏 Bad show @IGClientHelp 😡
-
Ryno (@Mister_Ryno) reported@IGcom What's happening with your desktop site and mobile app?? Both went down simultaneously just after the US opened today? No response from the helpdesk.
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reportedbeen holding for @IGcom for over 30 mins ! awful
-
🅰️ndrew Brahms (@inthe_flowers) reported@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
-
dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported@IGcom @financialombuds I am also still pending a reply to this issue from last week, they have gone beyond 1 business day.
-
Daveodee (@daveodee) reported@IGcom All platforms going down just before the open and cannot contact anyone ? Even your AI assistant has taken the day off WTF ?
-
Breakout Capital Ventures (@BreakoutCV) reported@djp4976 @IGcom @LondonSouthEast I get live trade quotes with IG, only have an isa but there’s no alteration to the service from my experience! Never had RSP or L2
-
jm (@Helix1985) reported@IGInternational @IGcom @IGClientHelp Your website is down and I’m unable to trade at the most important time. This is ridiculous.
-
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
-
Dave (@djp4976) reported@TheMoneySponge @IGcom US stocks have always been fine for orders, it’s always been poor U.K. side, especially the smaller more illiquid companies, even if stock is there and you place your order below that level it never seems to fill, I would have hoped if they at removing request for quote that orders would improve but after speaking to a few not sure it will. What’s the point having a trading account with @IGcom if you can’t trade through the platform, more like a holdco than anything else. Anyway, I’ll see how bad it is next week when migrated and go from there
-
DartronTrading (@DartronTrading) reported@MBdaytrading @IGcom I noticed that even II was not working around 12 noon. Has since been rectified, so maybe a wider issue today.
-
gold rutile 🌄 (@rutile369) reported@IGcom cannot log in - give us more info about the problem
-
smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported@adstrader @IGcom Reckon that’s a clerical error. Would be surprised if it isn’t all of them once they realise
-
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
-
Dave (@djp4976) reportedIf it ain’t bad enough having @IGcom take away live quotes without warning, we now have @LondonSouthEast displaying no trades
-
QuantumX (@QuantumStateX) reported@IGcom Customer Service Down
-
the Wise Fool (@theWiseFool8) reported@IGcom Wouldn't bother with IG. If you have a problem.. its impossible to get hold of a human.
-
Emeka N (@emeka89) reported@IGcom I’ve been on hold for almost 2 hours. Is your customer service phone line open today or not? On google it says 24/7 today, on the app it says it is outside normal working hours Please clarify
-
11invest (@11invest) reported@IGcom Have you been hacked? Can’t get into anything and even your platform status page is down. Losing so much money as I can’t close trades
-
Gagan Kashyap (@kashyapgagan) reported@IGClientHelp @IGClientHelp IGgroup down ?? no update
-
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.
