  • QuantumStateX
    QuantumX (@QuantumStateX) reported

    @IGcom Well, not that you'll be able to trade them because IG's customer support is always unavailable.

  • CasinoCapital
    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

  • CasinoCapital
    Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reported

    Thinking of moving my SIPP & share a/c's from IG @IGClientHelp to @Trading212 Anyone have a bad thing to say about 212? Or other brokers I should consider? What I REALLY want: Low FX fees Can hold multi-currency Tax return forms every year Options in SIPP (sadly no one offers)

  • IGcom
    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.

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

  • bobfromthebell
    bobfromthebell (@bobfromthebell) reported

    @PAFCRyan @englandcricket @IGcom A few hours lost to bad weather…all that did was prolong India’s misery and allow me to grab a couple of beers and a sandwich to enjoy whilst revelling in victory. Test cricket is about the away side adapting to conditions they’re not used to. India will need to overcome

  • JJJorange

    @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.

  • Smudgedann
    smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported

    @adstrader @IGcom Reckon that’s a clerical error. Would be surprised if it isn’t all of them once they realise

  • Smudgedann
    smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported

    @IGcom a real prince amongst thieves when it comes to the online brokers. Not only offering a ubiquitous service, but giving it gratis and not telling their clients what they can and can’t invest in. Take note @HLInvest and Interactive Investor

  • Mr_K2015
    Mr•K (@Mr_K2015) reported

    @IGcom Can’t login to my account?

  • alhellison
    alexander ellison (@alhellison) reported

    @CasinoCapital @IGClientHelp @Trading212 Also use IBKR for normal account. AG bell has good access to most uk micro caps and most fees low but FX is a problem. Maybe split UK and non uk to two accounts?

  • Factchecker2000
    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?!?!

  • andrewdc208
    Andrewdc208 (@andrewdc208) reported

    Anyone else's @IGcom Desktop being insanely slow, or is it just me?

  • AaronCocks86016
    Aaron ***** (@AaronCocks86016) reported

    @ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Worst bowling attack for sure, it’s horrible

  • the_carpdiem1

    @englandcricket @IGcom It's okkk.. no problem

  • Hickbcfc
    J.Hick (@Hickbcfc) reported

    @englandcricket @IGcom 37 💯 is crazy and he’s not slowing down

  • AndrewFearn95
    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.

  • HaraldHadrada2
    Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported

    @bonker99 @TradersDesk7jd @IGClientHelp Just stupid isn’t it. I guess that’s what happens when you make it free. They earn betting against us

  • JessSalop
    Jess-No flags because I actually am British (@JessSalop) reported

    @RhysBenjamin @englandcricket @IGcom Having stuck with Pope this far, I think they should have kept him in but dropped him down the order. As Travis Head did, one of the other senior batters should have had the stones to volunteer to go up the order.

  • Paul_S1979
    Paul S (@Paul_S1979) reported

    @IGcom shocking customer service today. Executed an order way off market and now been trying to get through to someone for over an hour. Seriously considering moving my business if this is the norm.

    Anyone else having issues with the charts on IG index @IGcom @IGClientHelp

  • mtstormus
    Mark Thomas (@mtstormus) reported

    @englandcricket @IGcom Umpire been paid to help the Indians by the ICC again

  • MattBrookes3
    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?

  • MrFord89
    Fordy-PUFC (@MrFord89) reported

    @imrksk @englandcricket @IGcom Yeah. That's why England did it. But now our batsmen struggle with any sort of movement. And our bowling line up is awful

  • benjamin_hsys
    Benjamin Hernandez 🔥 (@benjamin_hsys) reported

    @IGcom flash crash again huh

  • Woodywudpeck
    gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reported

    @Jack_Donaghy1 @IGcom I've put in a complaint let's see what happens lols

  • DeeBeeEyyGee
    D.B.A. Galbraith (@DeeBeeEyyGee) reported

    @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

  • nasteegee
    Tan Eriogerg (@nasteegee) reported

    @englandcricket @IGcom Do you English folk just consider it a loss as soon as the boys get on the plane to come down here to convict/peasant land?

  • MattySP500
    Matt (@MattySP500) reported

    @IGcom But no charts, so you have to flick between accounts... pain in the arse really. Better platforms out there for crypto Will you be able to trade on high volatility days as you do have a tendency of having "We are experiencing issues" on high volatility days.

  • whatsamata8
    WhatsaMata8 (@whatsamata8) reported

    @IGcom how do I get to speak to a human to resolve an issue? I’m trapped in AI chatbot hell where it keeps telling me to do something that doesn’t work, over and over again
