  • SimonBo86 Simon Bolivar (@SimonBo86) reported

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp All, this is unacceptable. You cannot be down during trading hours. You're not facebook or twitter. Thinking twice about investing further with you.

  • rickibarrett ricki barrett (@rickibarrett) reported

    @IGClientHelp platform down again 3 days in a row

  • bot13737282896 Nah then 🙂 (@bot13737282896) reported

    @IGClientHelp Same problem again today on NY opening. Same for last 3 days. We can't trade with such instability, unable to close a deal or change stops. I know it's exceptional times, but I'm losing confidence in IG's ability to cope.

  • goonermozil _mozil (@goonermozil) reported

    @IGClientHelp fix your damn app

  • KrasimirBPetrov Krasimir Petrov (@KrasimirBPetrov) reported

    @IGClientHelp Mobile application, web portal and trading impossible upon NYSE open. That’s for 3rd day in a row. This is becoming a bad pattern and it’s really unacceptable.

  • Dobbo761 Dobbo76 (@Dobbo761) reported

    @IGcom - second day in a row your platform has crashed on US open....what is the issue?

  • Tradethetrendco Tradethetrend (@Tradethetrendco) reported

    @IGClientHelp AGAIN! 3 days in a row now I can't use your site at all or log in at the US Open how can this be possible or allowed? I have seen countless people tweeting the same over the last couple of days, really isn't good enough as a trading service!

  • MBdaytrading MBTrading (@MBdaytrading) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGcom @ChrisB_IG Please sort out your platform, every day at 14:30 clients can't login or trade, really shameful for a big house like you not to be able to handle the volume? really frustating experience this week!

  • rickibarrett ricki barrett (@rickibarrett) reported

    @IGcom platform down again 3 days in a row

  • Andmk75 Andrew 75 (@Andmk75) reported

    @IGcom why do I find your platform is down on all devices when the platform status web page says, "All systems operational"?

  • NosyTrader Firoze K (@NosyTrader) reported

    @IGClientHelp Can't login to the platform at US open time for the 2nd time this week - sort it out IG!

  • MjMSquawk MjM Squawk (@MjMSquawk) reported

    @IGcom Same issue as yesterday, what is the issue with your platform??

  • tomverfin Tommy Vercetti (@tomverfin) reported

    @IGcom Please issue a statement on your brokerage being down this morning.

  • Hallam_Benjamin Ben Hallam (@Hallam_Benjamin) reported

    @IGcom What happens at open is irrelevant because you crash at open, 3 days in a row. Who fancies a lawsuit for unrealised gains?

  • Jupiter_Sphere Jupiter_Sphere (@Jupiter_Sphere) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGSquawk what ******** is going on with your appalling platform this week? #igindex

    @FletchTheTrader @IGClientHelp Just tweeted the same. It’s a joke. Cost me quite a bit this week have IG. I need a better more reliable service.
