    @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?

    @IGClientHelp would rather do this by phone but there is no number to call... My app and browser access to the platform gives and error page and clicking the status page also gives an error... Software update over the weekend??

    @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?

  • easterbunnycard
    easterbunnycard (@easterbunnycard) reported

    @IGcom Website, Android App, iOS App, Mobile Web App, and API are not processing login. It is poor management and poor service that you post this promotion but no information about your outage after more than 1 hour of outage. Time to look for another platform.

    @adstrader @IGcom Reckon that’s a clerical error. Would be surprised if it isn’t all of them once they realise

    @2grokornot2grok @11invest @IGcom It's got to have something to do with it................to be honest I want to leave IG. too expensive.........too any issues like this. cheaper alternative about, but worried about the migration time as i've got active positions Long and anticipating a BO soon.

    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.

    @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

  • Tyranus2010
    Carl (@Tyranus2010) reported

    Is there a issue with you app? My open positions are not updating and so im unable to close or edit them. @IGcom

  • alhellison
    alexander ellison (@alhellison) reported

    @CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 Also use IBKR for normal account. AG bell has good access to most uk micro caps and most fees low but FX is a problem. Maybe split UK and non uk to two accounts?

    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.

  • CasinoCapital
    Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reported

    Thinking of moving my SIPP & share a/c's from IG @IGClientHelp to @Trading212 Anyone have a bad thing to say about 212? Or other brokers I should consider? What I REALLY want: Low FX fees Can hold multi-currency Tax return forms every year Options in SIPP (sadly no one offers)
