-
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?
-
gkandola79 (@gskandola79) reported@IGcom Sort this problem out now what are you playing at😡
-
Noah Silverman, PhD (@noah_phd) reported@igcom @IGClientHelp @IGLabs Does anybody actually look at your whatsapp, intercom, or x messages? Getting any kind of support from your team is nearly impossible.
-
Joel Deakin (@JMHDeakin) reported@conradcarter66 @IGcom They don't appear to be content with irritating customers by degrading the share trading service apparently even providing a service is currently a struggle :/ - perhaps they also have management issues that're now affecting operations as well.
-
Perihelion (@PeriHelion96002) reported@network_surrey @IGcom Same problem. On the phone to their helpdesk - been kept on hold for 1.5h now.
-
AnnRaj (@anandhichetlur) reported@IGcom hi, I requested a part cash transfer which was confirmed again by email but have got a message that my stock holdings are being transferred. Not sure why this confusion. Can you please help
-
STUPPYTRADER (@stuppytrader) reported@IGClientHelp I’ve been trying since 6 Aug to get answers on MT5 position limits and split-order pricing. I was referred to Customer Experience, but have had no substantive response; today’s WhatsApp query has sat unread since 07:25. Can someone please pick this up?
-
iKopite 🏆*20 (@iKoppie) reported@11invest @IGcom Just got a template response from support, telling me to clear cache and switch to wifi haha

Mr R (@MrR1chmond) reported@IGSquawk @IGcom have you not woken up yet? System down?
-
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
-
Neverasked (@DCBW2025) reported@IGcom Why is the service down and when will it be back online? No announcement, support page not working. Jokers.

Mark Newton (@Mark_Newton1) reported@djp4976 @IGcom There customer service is zero, call centre staff giving out wrong information. Philippines and Eastern Europe call centres useless. Their IT infrastructure is 3rd world & needs upgrading, but they spend 000's millions on new acquisitions to the detriment of the platform.
