-
Malcolm Ace (@Mal_Ace) reported@englandcricket @IGcom Tough on Potts. Shows the errors of selection on tour and past three years. No real alternatives. Too easy to stay in the team, as long as you have the ‘attributes’
-
smudgedan (@Smudgedann) reported@adstrader @IGcom Reckon that’s a clerical error. Would be surprised if it isn’t all of them once they realise
-
DV8OR (@dv8or1) reported@JJJorange @IGcom @financialombuds Same issue for me… useless customer service
-
dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported@IGcom @financialombuds If anyone @IGcom is reading this, I still have had no acknowledgement from my support request sent Friday. I emailed yesterday as follow up for the complaints process.
-
Matt (@MattySP500) reported@IGClientHelp mobile login on iphone not working ?
-
IG (@IGcom) reported@Heetan001 We're really sorry to hear about your experience. That’s certainly not what we strive for. If you're still waiting for a resolution, please send your account number and a brief summary of the issue to @IGClientHelp via DM so we can investigate and assist you further.

Sach 🌏 (@sachsyd) reportedRubbish service at @IGClientHelp @IGAus #asxnews #ausbiz #asx
-
dismantle_ (@JJJorange) reported@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.
-
Humaira A (@BuksNCofy) reported@igcom @igclienthelp Been waiting for 2 hours on your WhatsApp ‘service’ + live chat with no response. Simple requests go through convoluted processes; I was promised a 3hr turnaround on a ‘ card verification’ that is still pending over 24hrs later? Shocking customer service!
-
jelt (@InfoJelt) reported@IGcom no one answering phone or chat for 2 hours. Someone or a lot of people need to complain to the FCA about this scam company.
-
Ric₿ezos (@BezosRic) reported@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.
-
gin&pinklemonade (@Woodywudpeck) reported@Jack_Donaghy1 @IGcom I did at 3.16pm after the supposed time of the change really bad form imo
-
Matt (@MattySP500) reportedAnyone else having issues with the charts on IG index @IGcom @IGClientHelp
-
Dr Prakash Nayak (@SRIPRAKASH76) reported@IGcom Hi there having problem trying to complete form w8 ?.I emailed your CS got a complicated reply. They say the form expired. I find that strange. How can a form expire? Can you send a fresh form ?Was looking for better customer support.Thank u
-
AnnRaj (@anandhichetlur) reported@IGcom @IGSquawk IG is not handling my isa transfer in request well. AI based help centre or WhatsApp doesn’t help. On the phone for 15 minutes to hear the same message. Very disappointing service. can you help please
-
Guy Edwards (@Nice_GuyEddie) reported@ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Probably the worst prepared and managed
-
ATHAR (@Atharcrypto) reported@IGcom Let’s help your project get the attention it deserves. Work with us—DM me!
-
peter (@A7068AP) reported@IGcom please can somebody pick up the phone on the helpdesk - I am having difficulty opening an account and some help would be appreciated @ChrisB_IG
-
IG Client Help (@IGClientHelp) reported@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.
-
Casino Capital (@CasinoCapital) reportedThinking of moving my SIPP & share a/c's from IG @IGClientHelp to @Trading212 Anyone have a bad thing to say about 212? Or other brokers I should consider? What I REALLY want: Low FX fees Can hold multi-currency Tax return forms every year Options in SIPP (sadly no one offers)
-
fundamentally its a bargain (@its_fundamental) reportedAny answer on the above. I have no interest in @UpholdInc and their offering so how do I stop having to look at you trying to shove it down your customers throats @IGClientHelp @IGcom - it is extremely annoying and should not be mandatory for a client to see every login.
-
J-M (@JM1ZZX) reported@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.
-
Jumpers for Goalposts (@UKFootie66) reported@englandcricket @IGcom What an awful bowling line up
-
Amynah (@Amynah_Aziz) reported@IGcom I have been struggling since friday to create a live account (7x), response from IG all 7x, "sorry we are having technical issues". I sent an email twice to accountopening but no reply as yet. Can someone help please?
-
Fordy-PUFC (@MrFord89) reported@imrksk @englandcricket @IGcom Yeah. That's why England did it. But now our batsmen struggle with any sort of movement. And our bowling line up is awful
-
Macro Joe (@wealthelf) reported@HLInvest systems still down. Zero ability to trade. Adds to my experience of repeated resilience issues, admin friction, delays, and inability to act when it matters. @IGcom — serious opportunity here. Why is your SIPP not execution-only? Requiring adviser sign-off to transfer is completely out of step with modern, self-directed investors. Build it properly and you’ll win a lot of business...certainly mine...be quick!
-
CT🪐 (@gercekci_V) reported@IGcom MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE A FASTER REACHABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR SYSTEMS ARE NOT RESPONDING!!!
-
Harald Hadrada (@HaraldHadrada2) reported@bonker99 @TradersDesk7jd @IGClientHelp Just stupid isn’t it. I guess that’s what happens when you make it free. They earn betting against us

ForGodsGlory (@MojoSnowman) reported@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!

Victor Cortino (@CortinoVictor) reported@ChazWood5 @englandcricket @IGcom Yes. Easily. By far the worst.
