    @IGClientHelp I have been waiting for a deposit for over 24 hours and can't reach support via phone/chat. Can you help?"

    @Heetan001 We're really sorry to hear about your experience. That’s certainly not what we strive for. If you're still waiting for a resolution, please send your account number and a brief summary of the issue to @IGClientHelp via DM so we can investigate and assist you further.

    @kev123703 @IGcom It’s not the borrow that’s the problem, 10 minutes after Harper requests him to get borrow, he says they are short 100m of stock! Even with borrow, then it would be highly unethical to slot 5 different banks in £20m each just before a -8% announcement! You’d get cut off from all!

    @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!

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp Unfortunately I will be making a complaint to the Financial Conduct Authority. My account remains blocked, my monies still not transfered out after repeated requests, no reply to DM.

    @IGcom a real prince amongst thieves when it comes to the online brokers. Not only offering a ubiquitous service, but giving it gratis and not telling their clients what they can and can’t invest in. Take note @HLInvest and Interactive Investor

    @englandcricket @IGcom I do think not putting Jacks or Stokes at 3 is stupid. Instead you wanna chuck a 21 year old in the deep end for no reason? Pope didnt bat at 3 when he first came in & neither should Bethell.

    @mark_etters @IGSquawk @IGClientHelp IG customer service is dreadful. Like a call centre.

    @englandcricket @IGcom An innings of highest quality by Joe Root.

  • AndrewFearn95
    andy mufc (@AndrewFearn95) reported

    @gazzriley @englandcricket @IGcom Your best player normally bats at 4, so I don’t mind Root staying there - especially as he’s already tried 3 and struggled. Brook on the other hand is vice-captain, he needs to take on a bigger role in the team, it might actually help his game giving him more responsibility.

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp I’m very dissatisfied and disappointed with your service team. They have finally responded but the lack of care and attention has been outrageous.

    @topstocks2024 @IGcom Tried an actual buy and had the same issue this time. Only closing, no buying. Frustrating.

    @IGcom morning. You have blocked my account, your help desk can give me no reason for this. I have tried 3 times to withdraw my balance to no effect, your help desk say there is no record of withdrawal application even though I have email conformation. Is there an issue?

    @PAFCRyan @englandcricket @IGcom A few hours lost to bad weather…all that did was prolong India’s misery and allow me to grab a couple of beers and a sandwich to enjoy whilst revelling in victory. Test cricket is about the away side adapting to conditions they’re not used to. India will need to overcome

    Hi @IGClientHelp . I have a GBP Share Dealings account and want to hold the balance in USD, and buy and sell U.S shares with USD only. I've tried changing the currency settings to "Manual", but when selling U.S shares the value still gets converted to GBP. Any help appreciated

    @djp4976 @IGcom There customer service is zero, call centre staff giving out wrong information. Philippines and Eastern Europe call centres useless. Their IT infrastructure is 3rd world & needs upgrading, but they spend 000's millions on new acquisitions to the detriment of the platform.

    @AkshithJha88423 @englandcricket @IGcom Sometimes u have to lower ur expectations I guess cos of the fact it’s very hard to find a good opening combo these 2 do bat well together so maybe they just have to take this stability at the top is a good thing

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