    @IGcom @IGClientHelp All, this is unacceptable. You cannot be down during trading hours. You're not facebook or twitter. Thinking twice about investing further with you.

    @IGClientHelp Same problem again today on NY opening. Same for last 3 days. We can't trade with such instability, unable to close a deal or change stops. I know it's exceptional times, but I'm losing confidence in IG's ability to cope.

  • TradingMKR Cheddar Capital (@TradingMKR) reported

    Cant log in to @IGcom again!!! Surely they cant be this unstable after day 4 of this short selling... Ridiculous!!
