@IGClientHelp I have an order stuck on your system that can not be deleted and my money has been stuck with you for two weeks now. I called your help desk and was told they couldn’t delete it and would raise it with IT. Still the order is there and has not or can not be deleted.

Over 1 hour waiting for you to answer phones @IGClientHelp #FridayThoughts #fridaycomplaints this is why I want to withdraw my money, you guys are rubbish. No one should use IG to trade. Newer brokers are much better, better service, better interfaces, better analysis tools

@RichieKennett Embarrassing. They can’t even get the core offering right. Service at @IGcom has put @HLInvest to shame.

@IGClientHelp I was told to "check my dashboard". I don't know what they are talking about. I asked what they meant and just ignored me. As an existing customer this "assistance" is non-existent.

@IGClientHelp It’s just unacceptable, 1hour 27minutes to get someone to answer the phone. This is one of the reasons I switched to another broker,the service levels are terrible. My query was sorted. I suggest that IG just hire more people to answer the phones it’s not fair on the ones working

@IGClientHelp Your website states 1 business day for a wire. Might want to update that. Not sure why it takes that long since you get the money same day. Also, I called 3 times yesterday. Was on hold for 25 min each time then disconnected. Your system is clearly broken.

@IGClientHelp @IGHelp is there any real human help available at IG ? I have been trying to resolve issues last 2 months and been wasting time on chats which support staff end without resolution and never email back. There is no 'save script' option either. #PoorService

@IGClientHelp Hello, I hope you're well. I’d be grateful for your help please: I've just spent 18 mins on hold, after which my call was disconnected, and Live Chat seems to be unmanned. Do you have anyone working in customer service? If so, how can I reach them? Thank you.
