-
Perihelion (@PeriHelion96002) reported@network_surrey @IGcom Same problem. On the phone to their helpdesk - been kept on hold for 1.5h now.
-
Carl (@Tyranus2010) reportedIs there a issue with you app? My open positions are not updating and so im unable to close or edit them. @IGcom
-
Dave (@djp4976) reported@IGcom You’re going to lose a hell of a lot of investors from your platform shortly due to these changes coming in, looks like no more ‘Request for Quote’ orders, limit and market orders only, wouldn’t be so bad if your orders actually got filled, you’ve always been useless with those, seems like only US stocks get filled with U.K. stocks sat there being unfilled all day even when there’s plenty of stock available within that order price
-
MB (@MBdaytrading) reported@IGcom so says goto status page then get this !! @IGcom This page is currently inactive and can only be viewed by team members. To see this page, sign in or request an account.
-
Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported@IGcom Client Services help desk referred the matter to backend team to investigate & resolve, still awaiting. I may be a very small fish but am a potential customer; very disappointed with your service.
-
smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported@IGcom seem to have gone from being very good across the board to pulling every trick in the book to **** over their customers.
-
the Wise Fool (@theWiseFool8) reported@IGcom Wouldn't bother with IG. If you have a problem.. its impossible to get hold of a human.
-
gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reportedJust shows you how bad @IGcom are ..I have a stop at 49.7p with spreadex but that WASN'T triggered so they have not used genuine prices. Complaint sent
-
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.
-
DV8OR (@dv8or1) reported@JJJorange @IGcom @financialombuds Same issue for me… useless customer service
-
peter (@A7068AP) reported@IGSquawk @IGcom @IGTradingFloor Please "fix" Wall St, daily options.
-
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!
-
Barefooted Rascal (@bushy1113) reported@IGcom This is all very lovely but your platform shutting down just before the market open on such an important day is totally unacceptable
-
JB (@thedarkonexx) reported@IGClientHelp Platform is down but no message on your X account?
-
George Wood (@GeorgeW31810800) reported@IGcom Down over 30 mins now.
-
Tortoise investor (@InvestTortoise) reported@andrewdc208 @IGClientHelp I'm having the same problem. You can't even view the server status page 😵
-
wsbx (@wsbxsg) reported@IGcom IG down again!! wtf man
-
MikeN (@Mikenarm) reported@djp4976 @IGcom They need to sort their **** out. Terrible atm
-
Anandhi Chetlur (@anandhichetlur) reported@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?
-
Dougparkspropertynest (@network_surrey) reported@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 !
-
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.
-
Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported@IGClientHelp Your AI Bot chat is worthless, and consistently gives incorrect information. Some of your API documentation is out-of-date, and it seems impossible to speak to an actual human on a phone call. How are we supposed to get any support?
-
Dave (@djp4976) reportedIf it ain’t bad enough having @IGcom take away live quotes without warning, we now have @LondonSouthEast displaying no trades
-
Alec Lo (@Alec_Lo) reported@IGcom This is unacceptable. Been over an hour since login errors, no communication. How can I trust your platform anymore?
-
Anandhi Chetlur (@anandhichetlur) reported@LBC @IGClientHelp App has recovered but customer services is awful
-
zenXV (@zenxv) reported@IGcom I have an urgent trading issue and been on hold for 45 minutes on webchat, phone and Whatsapp in which time the stock I am trading has had 8% upside. This is terrible for live traders?
-
DustinDuster (@VVIIIVVIIIVVIII) reported@IGcom Basically a non existent client support, you better give back the losses we’re forced to take due to your technical error!!
-
Molibar (@Molibar) reported@Tiboti888 @IGcom Thanks, I thought they singled me out for being so bad at this.
-
Daveodee (@daveodee) reported@IGcom All platforms going down just before the open and cannot contact anyone ? Even your AI assistant has taken the day off WTF ?
-
Roberto Lorenzetti (@LorenzettiRob) reported@Molibar @IGcom it’s down for me too.
