    @11invest @IGcom Just got a template response from support, telling me to clear cache and switch to wifi haha

    @IGcom It is down, and as usual no feedback from their clients support.

    @IGcom can I now only set buy and sell limits to trade? I thought @ii_couk were bad, but this isn't great

    @IGcom anyone can login?

    @IGcom Your Trading platform is down for almost an hour now and no communication or updates when this would be resolved.

    @GODOFFI @IGcom Actually really like the platform , but yes the issues are really frustrating

    @IGClientHelp Hi, do you have an estimate for when the login issue can be resolved ? For IG Australia

  • 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!

    @LBC @IGClientHelp if the ig app and website doesn’t work and there is no help (20 minutes on the phone, WhatsApp), what do customers do? This happens os often. What happens if there is margin call? Is there any regulator looking at these provides or are they above the law?

  • paapikeeda
    अनिल (@paapikeeda) reported

    Not 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

    Buttercup Serenity (@cthao2101) reported

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom they are a shitshow they screwed up my account so cant get mkt orders and calling me a liar despite screenshots after 1 week terminated the chat unresolved customer service is the worst i have ever come across i am transferring out

    @IGClientHelp did ur system just go down?

  • djp4976
    Dave (@djp4976) reported

    If it ain’t bad enough having @IGcom take away live quotes without warning, we now have @LondonSouthEast displaying no trades

  • gskandola79

    @IGcom Sort this problem out now what are you playing at😡

  • QuantumStateX
    QuantumX (@QuantumStateX) reported

    @IGcom Well, not that you'll be able to trade them because IG's customer support is always unavailable.

  • GeorgeW31810800

    @IGcom Down over 30 mins now.

  • daveodee

    @GeordiePhilUK @IGcom @IGClientHelp I see IG as quiet on here as their customer service was during the outage.

  • 11invest
    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

  • ItsBrandon_FM
    Brands (@ItsBrandon_FM) reported

    @IGcom this login error needs to be fixed immediately. Nobody can access their accounts and there has been no update on what’s happening

  • TheMoneySponge

    as expected @IGcom - can't now login to web platform rubbish already started moving my trading account to another provider

  • stuppytrader
    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?

  • DartronTrading
    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.

  • 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.

  • ii_couk

    @frankzondervan2 @IGcom Sorry to hear that you are having issues. If you would like us to look into what is going wrong please contact us via secure message or call us on 0345 607 6001 and we can assist over the phone.

    @IGClientHelp hi IG. There appears to be an issue with the mobile iPhone app. When I log in I get a message “session timed out. Please login again” and the app then goes to log in screen.

    @IGcom would be helpful if your website worked, #IG. Down for ages an no updates, no customer help?

  • cynicalanalyst2
    cynicalanalyst (@cynicalanalyst2) reported

    @11invest @IGcom You're having problems as well?

  • GODOFFI
    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 🙈

  • avinashkaware01
    AK (@avinashkaware01) reported

    @IGClientHelp Extreme platform outage today. I was locked out of my account from 14:30 to 16:30 despite repeated login attempts. This system failure directly prevented me from closing my Daily US Tech 100 Call at DH152.1£, resulting in a great loss. IG should compensate for that.

    been holding for @IGcom for over 30 mins ! awful
