    @IGcom Criminal. I suspect you will lose many customers for this. Contributing to distrust in retail brokers who have not structured their activities in such a way as to provide a fair and equitable market for long-side retail investors. Glad I am not a customer - blacklisted. $GME

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp why would you do this? Market manipulation at its worst. Only just signed up, now I gotta leave you!

    @SellarsIan @IGClientHelp I received a direct message from IG saying they were working to fix this

    Got your email @IGcom. Why not Just scale your servers then? don’t block trades. If it were just an infrastructure issue you would just put a nickel in the AWS meter and elastically scale your services!

    @IGcom Why can't people open new accounts in the UK and when will you fix this issue?

    @IGClientHelp hi guys. There appears to be another technical issue this morning. Charts are not loading properly on mobile devices. Chart settings are being deleted or returned to default each time I log out/in.

    @IGClientHelp Hi there, I've been on the phone for 45 minutes at the moment and still listening to the music! Is there anyone working in help department?

    @IGcom Absolutely shocking. I should be able to decide which stocks to buy with MY money. #MarketManipulation $GME $AMC. Have also filed a complaint to the @financialombuds

  • anti_atlas_
    DJ Ohm / Visions (@anti_atlas_) reported

    @IGcom - you will go down with the rest of the Wall Street crooks in the aftermath of all of this. Halting buys but allowing sells is not legitimate and clear market manipulating. You would have thought you would have learned from what has happened to RH

    @IGClientHelp having issues with multiple logins this morning. Login on my PC but as soon as I login on Ap on tablet or phone - boots me out of PC, login on PC boots me out of aps. Had this happen on another occasion awhile back

    @granty3333 @IGcom This is called naked shorting, not sure if your thick brain can comprehend it but meaning they went all in shorting ******** out of GME expecting no retail traders to figure this out. Now that we are all going long, they are to cover their shorts soon.

  • kjbiggar
    KJB (@kjbiggar) reported

    @IGClientHelp @SellarsIan Is this issue being resolved??

    @JSyborg @IGcom @SharePickers I don't agree with you Johh, I am also a long time trader with IG, let the market decide what happens,this is false duty of care they don't really care about the traders either their platform can't handle the volume or they have an issue like Robinhood on clearing these trades

  • chrisfernandior
    Chris Fernand (@chrisfernandior) reported

    @IGcom Meaning: Due to extreme volatility, and to prioritise the service we give our existing clients: HEDGE FUNDS, we are not allowing any new oppositions to be opened on $GME 🚀 and $AMC 🚀 because if retail traders keep buying $GME and $AMC our clients: the HEDGE FUNDS

    @IGClientHelp Just wondering whether I can expect your site to go down again at NYSE open at 2.30pm to get shafted again ?

    @IGClientHelp Very disappointed with the lack of help when your platform was down last week. My funds have been taken due to the issues last week and there is no resolution in sight.

    @IGcom Scam rigged everyone in the UK complain to the FCA and Financial Ombudsman There needs to be prison time for market manipulators. $GME

    @IGcom I made the call at 11:52 and did hold on for 47 mins and then gave up, so what you are saying is that I should have hold on for 2-3 hours??? I have actually lost money and I have emailed the help desk already, I hope they make it right!!!
