Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • SouthernTrader4 Southern Trader (@SouthernTrader4) reported

    @blacgold76 @IGClientHelp Yep . Last two days kept shutting down around 2 pm when it was extremely volatile in markets . Not good enough

  • rob_king Rob King (@rob_king) reported

    @IGcom If you block/cap buying you’ll be sued like @RobinhoodApp ...Our money, our investments. We’ve all signed the “capital at risk” forms. This is a bad day for IG for even mentioning this.

  • tausmanon taus (@tausmanon) reported

    @IGcom How come after betting on a stock the stock is going down and after closingthe bet the stock is going up? Can someone answer to my question

  • WeaselIPA Weasel IPA (@WeaselIPA) reported

    @IGClientHelp down again.

  • wwwsahiphopcoza wwwsahiphopcoza (@wwwsahiphopcoza) reported

    @IGcom @IGClientHelp **** you guys! Why you halted $SNDL ? That **** is illegal!

  • pistachiorich Richard Eastwood (@pistachiorich) reported

    @IGClientHelp Anyone know of a UK platform that wasn’t down today. I tried to exit my position with IG but no such luck. I could exit when it dropped though. I’ve heard @CityIndex was fine? @AJBellYouInvest how did you fare. Will IG honour my exit?

  • adythompson Ady Thompson (@adythompson) reported

    @IGcom Shame we couldn't trade AMC at certain times over the last 24 hours, no issues when the priced dropped though 🤔

  • Bowen85AI AndY B (@Bowen85AI) reported

    @IGcom @wallstreetbets_ @chamath #amcstock #AMCtothemoon. locked out of AMC trades with god knows how many other people. could not buy or sell. need support.

  • EquityInvestme2 Equity Investments (@EquityInvestme2) reported

    @gju @IGcom Terrible service probably violating their own Terms and Conditions. Please seek recompenee with Financial Ombudsman Service and file a complaint with @TheFCA Enough is enough of this shoddy service.

  • TommyRot10 Tommy Rot (@TommyRot10) reported

    @IGClientHelp Are these issues now over? Your contact us number tells callers to go away unless they want to trade. I believe the IG trading platform is miscalculating the value of my holdings. It's significantly below the figure I reach when I calculate it. No phone support, so can you help?

  • reddittradinguk Reddit Trading UK (@reddittradinguk) reported

    @IGcom its US opening bell and as usual IG is down...poor service

  • HopelessTrader1 The Hopeless Trader (@HopelessTrader1) reported

    @IGcom Don’t go down the route of Robinhood. Stop pausing trading. Halting the buying of a trade and only letting them sell is pure market manipulation and you only have to look at what’s happening with Robinhood, I’ll be surprised if the two co-founders don’t go to prison

  • MAYURKOTECHA1 Mayur (@MAYURKOTECHA1) reported

    @IGClientHelp @IGcom Logging in is very hit and miss. Platform is erratic and unstable. Any reason for this?

  • pjensh91 Paul (@pjensh91) reported

    @GerberKawasaki No problem buying on @IGClientHelp igmarkets either

  • jas251068 Jason Nicholls (@jas251068) reported

    @IGClientHelp Can’t see live positions on chart now , shambles of a service.

  • Hallam_Benjamin Ben Hallam (@Hallam_Benjamin) reported

    @IGcom hey IG, any chance you could maybe not let your service crash at market open every day?

  • domhawkes Dominic hawkes (@domhawkes) reported

    @IGcom Once again having problems logging in 😖😖😖

  • Blowster85 Andy (@Blowster85) reported

    @IGSquawk @IGClientHelp **** you IG This is the 3rd day in a row your site is ****** when US Markets open How is anyone supposed to trade anything. Joke

  • RichofYorks Richard (@RichofYorks) reported

    IG down yet again. The service is becoming a joke. I need a better provider. @IGClientHelp @IGSquawk

  • picfwd sebastianm (@picfwd) reported

    @IGcom @IGcom disabled trading on Gamestop and AMC in exactly the critical moment (on second) when Robinhood closed down the option to buy. This caused GME and AMC to crash and IG is part of that.

  • ClaudioHoban Claudiu Hoban (@ClaudioHoban) reported

    @IGClientHelp Only opened trading again when it went down “coincidently”. What you did was illegal and you will be facing lawsuits. I have gathered evidence and screenshots of everything that happened yesterday and today.

  • paulchapman paulchapman (@paulchapman) reported

    @IGClientHelp you Australia 1800 number is not working? Are there any issues as we have a technical issue and need to speak to someone

  • shabakNuke shabak (@shabakNuke) reported

    @IGcom Its not your fking problem innit? Why did u stop trading yesterday on dip (120usd)? To sell it to hedge funds? I am looking for anyone else that was affected and maybe legal action to be taken against you. YOU HAVE ILLEGALLY STOPPED PPL FROM TRADING MULTIPLE TIMES!!!!!

  • sedfesdfjk SEDFESDFJK (@sedfesdfjk) reported

    @thetaatthemoney @IGClientHelp I got logged out and now unable to log in, you're having this issue also?

  • SeasideChris Chris McStill (@SeasideChris) reported

    @Woodysue @IGSquawk @IGClientHelp Terrible. worse for me than previous days.

  • aussieg7 aussieg (@aussieg7) reported

    @IGClientHelp Your customer service line is disconnected. Not a good look. I get you are overwhelmed with complaints but you guys need to fix this asap. The platform crashed multiple times last night costing people money.

  • shabakNuke shabak (@shabakNuke) reported

    @picfwd @IGcom Excactly, what can we do? I have recorded sessions, this was on ath and on dip as well. Total manipulation!!!!! What will be next? They will take away shares we own and give it to hedge funds - so they can cover naked shorts? Worst broker....

  • radulf36 Fludar (@radulf36) reported
