    @IGcom This is unacceptable. Been over an hour since login errors, no communication. How can I trust your platform anymore?

    @IGcom @PiQMarkets This is not true. Quantum computing solves very specific problems, it will not compete with gpu’s

    @IGInternational @IGcom @IGClientHelp Your website is down and I’m unable to trade at the most important time. This is ridiculous.

    @GeordiePhilUK @IGcom @IGClientHelp I see IG as quiet on here as their customer service was during the outage.

    @IGClientHelp Extreme platform outage today. I was locked out of my account from 14:30 to 16:30 despite repeated login attempts. This system failure directly prevented me from closing my Daily US Tech 100 Call at DH152.1£, resulting in a great loss. IG should compensate for that.

    fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reported

    @IGcom @Therichardralph @IBKR Says the company whose platform is down at a crucial time of day as market opens in US. I would suggest looking at ii - they are a quality operation unlike IG. IG will just disappoint.

    @IGcom seem to have gone from being very good across the board to pulling every trick in the book to **** over their customers.

    @DonaldPond6 @IGcom Yes, wonder if the decision was made further down the chain. If the CEO was aware that's an absolute shocker. Might be an opportunity for @vladtenev at Robinhood to steal some more UK market share by just offering better customer experiences.

    It's No Joke. (@Read_That_Right) reported
