    @IGClientHelp trying to do a cash ISA transfer. Chat does not work properly, when I telephone no help is provided, just fobbed off. You received cash from other provider 30/3 but nobody will check what is going on. Have emailed a few times, but no progress.

  • DularRiley Riley Dular (@DularRiley) reported

  • Nowt4Owt Nowt (@Nowt4Owt) reported

    @IGClientHelp One of your advisors ended the call on me saying they'd be back in touch in 5 minutes, It's been 15. Time is money. How do I make a complaint?

  • SaintMarTn St Martin (@SaintMarTn) reported

    @JMahony_IG @IGcom @JMahony_IG With the banking financial reports, is it advisable to still keep FTSE 350 Banks' trade? Is there a conviction to find grounds somewhere as support?

  • David1IL David O'Neil (@David1IL) reported

    @IGClientHelp - blank charts this morning after placing orders pre market opening. Charts stayed blank for first 30 minutes of trading. Trading completely blind! Tried logging in and out via browser, had no effect. I have seen others reporting similar issues. Screenshots sent.

  • Phirlly A. Oluleye (@Phirlly) reported

    @IGcom @VictoriaS_IG Does your platform work!? I opened an account over a month ago and submitted the required documents but no trading account was opened for me. My documents was reviewed and approved but trading account was not given. Help!

  • JosephEno19 joeboss01 (@JosephEno19) reported

    @IGcom Up initially. Potentially up to $600 but when the hype dies down should come back down to earth (100$-$200). When the bull run finishes, the price could fall even more. Good company long term though.

    @IGClientHelp so hard to get in touch with customer service.. as a new customer I tried to call, email, online help for my transfer..no reply for over a week.. transfer was delayed by other firm so looking for a new one but so far IG is bit disappointing...

  • mrunoko Daniel Robson (@mrunoko) reported

    @IGClientHelp it would help if you could respond to my DM about the specifics of zero commissions before next month.

  • PintadoAle Alejandro Pintado (@PintadoAle) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have emailed already and I was told IT is aware and to wait for a fix. It seems the platform doesnt like GTC orders and I need to cancel them and put a new one in or the platform breaks.

  • David1IL David O'Neil (@David1IL) reported

    @IGClientHelp What is the point of having an online platform if I need to call and request a stock? This was the first day of trading on the ASX after IPO. Thought it might just be in the list along with all other stocks. Similar issue the previous day with Delorean.

  • riverkey79 riverkey 3.5% FBPE, FBPA (@riverkey79) reported

    @IGcom From over a week ago? I also waited over an hour on live chat, went to make a tea and you hung up on me when I returned. My problem was right there, you didn’t even need further input from me to fix the problem.

  • Sasuuni Sasuuni (@Sasuuni) reported

    @IGClientHelp I sent you a DM on Friday after days of not being able to contact customer support via phone, can you reply?
