Andy Gill (@andygill76) reported@DinoGTFC @englandcricket @IGcom Fair point. Reckon if Potts can get that handicap down to single figures he might have more of a shot.

Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported@IGClientHelp @IGLabs @IGcom Been trying to get technical support for over a week. Nobody at your company replies to your website chat, whatsapp, or even messages on X. Every one of your support channels claims 24/7. This is disappointing
-
Emeka N (@emeka89) reported@IGcom I’ve been on hold for almost 2 hours. Is your customer service phone line open today or not? On google it says 24/7 today, on the app it says it is outside normal working hours Please clarify
-
G. (@LArsenal96) reported@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 Newton (@Mark_Newton1) reported@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.
-
Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported@igcom @IGClientHelp @IGLabs Does anybody actually look at your whatsapp, intercom, or x messages? Getting any kind of support from your team is nearly impossible.

Buttercup Serenity (@cthao2101) reported@MBdaytrading @IGcom they are a shitshow they screwed up my account so cant get mkt orders and calling me a liar despite screenshots after 1 week terminated the chat unresolved customer service is the worst i have ever come across i am transferring out

JJ (@investing256) reported@IGcom I've just heard IG are withdrawing the RSP service from your stockbroking accounts. Is this true ? If so, why have you not given customers several months notice so we have time to move accounts elsewhere ?

AnnRaj (@anandhichetlur) reported@IGcom @IGSquawk IG is not handling my isa transfer in request well. AI based help centre or WhatsApp doesn’t help. On the phone for 15 minutes to hear the same message. Very disappointing service. can you help please
-
Malcolm Ace (@Mal_Ace) reported@englandcricket @IGcom Tough on Potts. Shows the errors of selection on tour and past three years. No real alternatives. Too easy to stay in the team, as long as you have the ‘attributes’
-
Jebiga 🇪🇺🏴 🇦🇩🇨🇾🇭🇷🇨🇮 (@Nickpurn300) reported@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?

STUPPYTRADER (@stuppytrader) reported@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?

🅰️ndrew Brahms (@inthe_flowers) reported@CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 Only issue I have is some tiny float stocks in the UK are really difficult to execute on T212 compared to IG - i.e. I have put a limit buy for the same price on both platforms, IG executed a lot quicker than T212. Maybe the lesson is to avoid illiquid garbage stock

fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported@IGClientHelp @IGcom Just withdrew money from my account and it appeared in my bank account instantly (as is the case mainly). I withdrew money on Friday at 3:31 pm to put it in savings ac for weekend - still not arrived at my bank NEED CONSISTENCY OF SERVICE - LOST INTEREST
-
Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reported@chippycapital I actually like IG generally, am probably one of their longest-standing customers (last century!), but damn @IGClientHelp they'll just ignore you when you try and suggest tiny UX changes that would improve their systems. Am on verge of shutting all my accounts except spreadbet
-
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.
