    @IGClientHelp Are there any reported problems with the News feed on the web platform today, as mine will not update, and I have to jump between the tabs, All, Tweets and Notifications to update. Thanks.

    @IGClientHelp Hi, I applied for an account several weeks ago, have uploaded the documents requested, had the green ticks in the app that the documents have been approved but still can't activate my accounts. Please can someone help? Sent DM also.

  • khanmoonkhan Asif Khan (@khanmoonkhan) reported

    @IGcom My account is locked and I need to get it unlocked! No one’s picking up the phone. Tried calling for hours in total. Understand the current situation but at least have the correct measures in place! Terrible customer service.

  • fergulike Paul Ferguson (@fergulike) reported

    @IGcom presume nobody is ever going to respond to my customer query via phone/email/tweet?

  • baldybobby Rob Wombwell (@baldybobby) reported

    @JemPoppleton @IGClientHelp Shouldn't be making losses right now. Trying to contact IG is the problem. Not impossible, but very, very difficult.

  • EllyDavis EllyDavis 🇬🇧 3.5% (@EllyDavis) reported

    @IGClientHelp I managed to do it finally and got email confirmation but then you immediately froze my account and I'm currently gathering cobwebs waiting for your phone support to answer the phone. The recorded message keeps suggesting I get help from the community hub.

  • jamiemuirfilms Jamie muir (@jamiemuirfilms) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have tried to send myself a password reset. but nothing came through. My account has now been locked and I cannot get through on the phone and haven't had any response over email from IG support.

  • tradermo_ Mo (@tradermo_) reported

    @IGClientHelp why has your customer service gone **** the past few months?

  • JayBXIII Jay (@JayBXIII) reported

    @IGClientHelp I am trying to close positions in my account. I have an EA running that has held positions for over 3 days and tht is not correct. When I try to execute it I get an error "Trade is disabled" on every thing I do.

  • Share_investor Share Investor (@Share_investor) reported

    For a company the size of @IGClientHelp there customer service takes so long it’s annoying!!

  • GabrielBullis Gabriel Bullis (@GabrielBullis) reported

    @IGClientHelp I have been trying to reach your offices for the past few days and I can't get through to them on any number that I call. And I have sent emails, but I have not gotten any emails back. What do I do? I am trying to fix my account as soon as possible.

  • qamar_hussain1 Qamar Hussain (@qamar_hussain1) reported

    @IGClientHelp can somebody please call me because I have a serious complaint regarding the unnecessary market manipulation against my trading strategy using your platform? IG have moved the goalpost without any prior notifications to users, this is unacceptable & very unfair.

  • darlocst darlocst (@darlocst) reported

  • TheCryptoKing1 TheCryptoKing (@TheCryptoKing1) reported

    @IGClientHelp I am a new Australian customer and just started trading ur CFD for US, Commodities n ASX stocks. I thought there was no commission fee on IG due to larger OTC spread but i have been charged $19.55 for each trade. This is just ripping off.

  • baldybobby Rob Wombwell (@baldybobby) reported

    @IGClientHelp A disgrace at customer service level. Very, very difficult to actually speak to anyone!! Again and dealing with facts!! Cheap trading prices. Diabolical customer service. Bad for far too long, so obviously not interested in providing proper customer service.
