    @CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 I looked into this recently. According to CoPilot, you can trade options in an IBKR SIPP if you go through a SIPP admin such as Westerby Trustee Services or atsipp. Assuming CoPilot is correct, I might go down this route

    @MBdaytrading @IGcom I noticed that even II was not working around 12 noon. Has since been rectified, so maybe a wider issue today.

    @IGcom @financialombuds If anyone @IGcom is reading this, I still have had no acknowledgement from my support request sent Friday. I emailed yesterday as follow up for the complaints process.

    @IGInternational @IGcom @IGClientHelp Your website is down and I’m unable to trade at the most important time. This is ridiculous.

    @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?

    @IGcom seem to have gone from being very good across the board to pulling every trick in the book to **** over their customers.

    @IGcom Is there ANYONE answering your phones or Whatsapp Help messages ??!!… now been on hold for nearly 10 minutes !… this is NOT a great service at all. How can i get help to log in to my account?… am unable to via either mobile or laptop !

    @Woodywudpeck @IGcom They are pure rubbish!! I stopped using them in 2023. They couldn't even issue a simple P&L statement 🙈 despite explaining then how to do it leave alone leave alone platform working smoothly 😬

    @IGcom Customer Service Down

  • 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!

    @IGcom what has happened to your customer service?? I have been trying to connect with someone via WhatsApp, phone and email and haven’t got a response…!!! This is becoming unacceptable and is enough to make me reconsider my account.

    IG advertising on the up IG client service tanking Over the last year the quality of service all round from @IGcom has been shocking. @IGClientHelp what is going on!

    💰 𝑺𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆 💰 (@TheMoneySponge) reported

    @IGcom have made bucket loads from me over the last 10 years - if they turn off live quotes and L2 then they’ll lose another 10+ years of business Not to mention their recent behaviour around Aquis and customer service is shocking
