    @GaryNTrader @Hermes3456 @IGcom They can’t booked unused vouchers as revenue in accounts. So won’t be bad if bookings are paid with vouchers but less CF though. I myself got one to use from last year

  • AntonSnitch9 Anton Mitchell (@AntonSnitch9) reported

    @IGClientHelp My account is locked. I have reset my password multiple times but still cannot login. What is the process to recover my account? I've sent numerous emails with no response.

  • jonwatts81 Jon Watts (@jonwatts81) reported

    @IGClientHelp been on hold for over an hour and the live chat won't load. Will these issues be sorted out soon or will I need to look at moving to a different provider.

  • heshambarr hesham barr (@heshambarr) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi there - can't log in using password on computer, nor biometric details on 'phone. No one answers the 'phone nor the chat to get support.

    @malinda63998104 @IGClientHelp @IGClientHelp I’m experiencing the exact same issue. Been waiting a long time for someone to answer the phone support through chat!!!

  • C4rli86 Carlos Garcia (@C4rli86) reported

    @IGClientHelp Hi, i have trouble with the platform, since i opened the live account and set it up on MT4, don’t let me open a trade, in the chart don’t appear the option to open/close trades. Everything is in blank Desktop and Mbile App both the same. Anyone can help??

  • MrFadedGlory23 M R F A D E D G L 🖤 R Y (@MrFadedGlory23) reported

    @IGClientHelp Is your live chat down? Been on hold on the phone for 30+ mins and the live chat window is a blank screen so you cant do anything??

  • cristianravalli Cristian Ravalli (@cristianravalli) reported

    @IGClientHelp Guys, I am really disappointed with you. You write about SPACs, it takes ages (2 weeks) to get an answer whether you split. And the answer is you don't because of a heavy workload? Why do you even advertise SPACs? Are you serious about your service?

  • ryangraydj Ryan Gray (@ryangraydj) reported

    @IGClientHelp I’ve sent you a private message, please check your box. You made a partial sell order without my consent. I never ordered you to sell and at that time I had sufficient funds so that’s was not a stop loss problem!

  • GaryNTrader Gary Newman (@GaryNTrader) reported

    @hafiz_11120 @Hermes3456 @IGcom I suspect a lot will also come down to how many flights are booked using vouchers which they’ve already had the revenue from in 2019/20! Must be a lot of money worth of vouchers out there to be used

  • mamalik1 Aky malik (@mamalik1) reported

    @IGClientHelp i am so shocked with your poor customer service. I purchased #cbx shares via @PrimaryBid IG have still not put the shares in my account. Advisors not helping

  • h_a_trading Hayeswood Ashdown FX/Futures Trading (@h_a_trading) reported

    @WalshyNick @IGClientHelp Still same problem this morning @IGClientHelp

  • notcolino Mr. Nyea - こりーの (@notcolino) reported

    @IGClientHelp @pione3r Can you please answer the question. When will we be able to buy (open) positions again on $AMC? @TheFCA should be investigating what you're doing. I have already moved my business elsewhere because of your dishonesty and lack of help.

  • LionsEyeEntLLC Lion's Eye Entrainment (@LionsEyeEntLLC) reported

    @IGClientHelp Is IG a margin only based service? If not how do I make that selection within my account?

  • RickyToddz Todd (@RickyToddz) reported

    @IGClientHelp Whenever I login my account it says I have been locked. Upon resetting my password and logging back in, I am locked out again. Please could you provide help with this. I been on hold for over an hour now!!!

    @IGClientHelp Hello I am having issues getting my account approved. I need to get information corrected and nobody answered the phone.

  • GPicklestein Gerald Picklestein (@GPicklestein) reported

    @IGClientHelp Thanks for your reply. So would I be able to avoid these issues if I just short the stocks myself, via my share dealing account? Or would I run into the same problem?

  • watchfulrabbit Watchfulrabbit (@watchfulrabbit) reported

    @IGClientHelp @JohnMorris1982 Weird that isn’t it. Seems every type of call centre experiencing high demand. Convenient excuse? Are all home workers doing sod all apart from fixing all the issues they have stacked up? Thought of employing more people or improving your system?

  • Deg092 CryptoDog (@Deg092) reported
