-
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
-
DV8OR (@dv8or1) reportedNot able to log in to mobile or desktop apps. Have the grace to at least post a message about this issue. I am getting so pissed off with IG and their support. You are destroying what was a great platform. Its a disgrace. @IGClientHelp @IGTradingFloor @IGcom
-
gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reportedJust 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
-
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 ?
-
Dougparkspropertynest (@network_surrey) reported@IGcom On hold 16 minutes to try and get help logging in…. Still no answer, this is a joke of a service IG… what is happening ??!!!
-
fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported@IGcom @Therichardralph @IBKR Says the company whose platform is down at a crucial time of day as market opens in US. I would suggest looking at ii - they are a quality operation unlike IG. IG will just disappoint.
-
STUPPYTRADER (@stuppytrader) reported@IGClientHelp I’ve been trying since 6 Aug to get answers on MT5 position limits and split-order pricing. I was referred to Customer Experience, but have had no substantive response; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?
-
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.
-
T Baba (@Boltlightning77) reported@IGClientHelp Hello, are your mobile platforms having login issues? I can't seem to login
-
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
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reported@CJinvestor52365 @Jimzi1 @IGcom 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
-
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!
-
Hafiz AI 🇧🇩🇬🇧 (@hafiz_11120) reportedOver 15 minutes on the phone and still no answer @IGcom. Both app and website is down. Can’t lock the profit
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reportedbeen holding for @IGcom for over 30 mins ! awful
-
Andrewdc208 (@andrewdc208) reported@IGClientHelp did ur system just go down?
-
💰 𝑺𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆 💰 (@TheMoneySponge) reportedas expected @IGcom - can't now login to web platform rubbish already started moving my trading account to another provider
-
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
-
Perihelion (@PeriHelion96002) reported@IGcom The platform's fecked. No help or communications to customers.
-
gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reportedAnyone else having issues logging into @IGcom can't get in on any apps of accounts
-
gkandola79 (@gskandola79) reported@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
-
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
-
GOD OF NOTHING (@GODOFFI) reported@MBdaytrading @IGcom They always have problems !! Why do you even use them? I stopped using them in 2023 as they couldn't even issue a simple P&L statement despite explaining to their so called accounts how it's done 🙈
-
Joel Deakin (@JMHDeakin) reported@GeordiePhilUK Provide a new option great - default for all customers awful 😑! Part of the #IGG @IGcom push to alienate customers.
-
Mahakala (@waimeazach) reported@IGcom @PiQMarkets This is not true. Quantum computing solves very specific problems, it will not compete with gpu’s
-
Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported@Smudgedann @robjohnsonrj1 @IGcom Service company and a bloody good one v now a load of **** that bets against us at every juncture and when they are losing shut up shop.
-
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 ?
-
STUPPYTRADER (@stuppytrader) reported@IGClientHelp I’ve been trying since 6 Aug to get answers on MT5 position limits and split-order pricing. I was referred to Customer Experience, but have had no response beyond GIO..; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?

Nassar Sandusky (@NassarSandusky) reported@TheMoneySponge @IGcom What platform are you switching too? I’ve only joined at the start of the year they are awful. Thought it just me who couldn’t log in
