JB (@thedarkonexx) reportedHi @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
-
kris b (@boisy12uws) reported@IGcom This is a huge problem that needs to be addressed immediately. Why is no one discussing it? ;The l,ink to the MEV Bot process is on my TL - I retweeted it;}
-
MattBrookes (@MattBrookes3) reported@LordBadshot @Smudgedann @IGcom I use them, and must be out of the loop as I’m not aware of anything. What’s the problem, and should I be concerned?
-
Kryptogem110x (@kryptogem110x) reported@IGcom Had issues with IG? DM — I’ll help file to FCA/BaFin & offer a small compensation for verifiable admin work. Genuine cases only.
-
jelt (@InfoJelt) reported@IGcom no one answering phone or chat for 2 hours. Someone or a lot of people need to complain to the FCA about this scam company.

SimplyGreat (@MiaJenkinsonXXx) reported@MWJS82 @englandcricket @IGcom They could have all the warmups they want and it wouldn't change the outcome as long as you have Key, McCullum and Stokes in background. I hope everyone is bracing themselves for the most embarrassing series loss we've ever had down under
-
smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported@ThomasTitmouse @djp4976 @IGcom Reckon some sort of solution will be found and then all those that sold will be mightily pissed

Kevin Shames (@kshames) reported@IGClientHelp please can you fix the data on Monster ($MNST) for the share split
-
Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported@IGcom I have been struggling since friday to create a live account (7x), response from IG all 7x, "sorry we are having technical issues". I sent an email twice to accountopening but no reply as yet. Can someone help please?

Tom Norman (@plaste) reported@wealthelf @HLInvest @IGcom I'm trying out Trading212 for an ISA and not having any issues so far. Had it for about 6 months. (Though was an expensive spread for a smallcap.)

Girish Menon (@wildlifegiri) reported@englandcricket @IGcom The worst team ever
-
IG (@IGcom) reported@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.

Jebiga 🇪🇺🏴 🇦🇩🇨🇾🇭🇷🇨🇮 (@Nickpurn300) reported@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.
-
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!
-
IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported@its_fundamental @IGcom Are you still seeing the discrepancy in your funds or cash balances? It’s possible this was due to weekend downtime or routine maintenance updates. If the issue is ongoing, please DM us and we’ll look into it right away.
-
IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported@whatsamata8 @IGcom Sorry about that, we know how frustrating it is. Try typing “agent” or “speak to an adviser” in the chatbot to reach a human. If you like, DM us your account ID and a brief issue and we’ll look into it and help.

Jam4U (@Jam4u_75) reported@IGcom My L2 is not stream trade data - is there a problem? Anyone else having issues?

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

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.
-
Reality (@Factchecker2000) reported@ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Nah, the last 3 tours were just as bad. 0-3* 0-4 0-4 0-5 England cricket is trash. The only question mark is how the far are they so arrogant?!?!

gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reported@Jack_Donaghy1 @IGcom I've put in a complaint let's see what happens lols

Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported@Smudgedann @robjohnsonrj1 @IGcom Service company and a bloody good one v now a load of **** that bets against us at every juncture and when they are losing shut up shop.

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’
