    @IGcom BEWARE! Klarna allows fraud and you'll still have to pay!!! They say you're protected but their "fraud dept" is a fraud. They find every excuse NOT to help you and just keep taking your monthly payment, even when you didnt recieve the item because of criminals that use Klarna on fraudulent websites (allowed by Klarna). Is fraud commonly accepted by Klarna without any consumer protection? Klarna has a history of this. Just check out all the Facebook comments on their Page. It seems there are no safeguards for being defrauded and still having to pay Klarna, even though plenty of proof of fraud is given as evidence to Klarna's "fraud" dept. Klarna's customer service staff is incapable of handling fraud to the frustration and dismay of customers. Are fraudulent companies treated better than customers at Klarna? In July I ordered a product online that never arrived. I used Klarna to pay thinking it would be convenient. It turns out the website was a fake, but was able to ACCEPT PAYMENT USING KLARNA. I gave their CS rep all the incriminating proof of my claim but after 24 hours was told in an email that my claim was invalid. This is a very valid claim with more than enough proof for a 10 year old child to understand, yet Klarna's fraud dept obviously didn't take the time to actually "investigate" my claim. Since then I've spoken to several of Klarna's agents only to be told to wait for the "Fraud Dept" to contact me. Today another payment has been charged. They won't stop payments. The CS rep today said he can't stop the payments. I hope you can see how frustrating this is. I am now paying Klarna for a product that I never recieved, but the criminals who defrauded me GOT PAID BY KLARNA. - How many other Klarna customers are being treated this way? - How many fraudulent companies do business with, and get paid by Klarna? Just check the comments on their FB page. Klarna's customer service reps and fraud department are obviously unreliable and will NOT protect consumers. They act as if they dont care about theft and fraud as long as they get their money. Is this the sentiment of the entire company all the way to the top? Sebastian Siemiatowski and Michael Moritz? It seems they care only about the money they put in their own pockets even when criminals use their services and steal the money from consumers. This is Bad and Evil business!

    @IGClientHelp So next steps is complaints to see if we can conclude an understanding. There is no point displaying a closed positon to a customer and then arbitrarily reconciling to another point in time.

    @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

    @englandcricket @IGcom Good decision but doesn't England also have a replacement for Duckett? Or maybe move Duckett down the order, where his prodding outside off stump is less risky. Jacks could be a more suitable opener than Duckett.

    @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.

    @IGcom I’ve been on hold for almost 2 hours. Is your customer service phone line open today or not? On google it says 24/7 today, on the app it says it is outside normal working hours Please clarify

    @Mr_K2015 @BarnyardBull72 @IGcom nope unfortunately, I contacted support the other week to get them to add it but nothing since. Can buy on most other platforms.

    @kev123703 @IGcom It’s not the borrow that’s the problem, 10 minutes after Harper requests him to get borrow, he says they are short 100m of stock! Even with borrow, then it would be highly unethical to slot 5 different banks in £20m each just before a -8% announcement! You’d get cut off from all!

    @IGcom Step up with customer support... I have tried to reach your support for several days now. With email and with whatsapp but have got zero replys. Trying to open account... Not a very good first impression, though, as there is no customer service at all.

    @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.)

    @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.

    @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

    @IGcom Client Services help desk referred the matter to backend team to investigate & resolve, still awaiting. I may be a very small fish but am a potential customer; very disappointed with your service.
