@IGcom Lost me as a customer. You were already the platform with the worst usability and now you want to babysit us too. Your systems should be able to handle spikes in traffic without falling to pieces and losing us trades!

@IGcom But I am an existing customer. I payed my US trading fees in Jan to be able to trade in Feb. Wouldn’t prioritising existing customers be stopping new accounts to be created? Not controlling what existing customers trade? Free market my ***.

@IGcom I'm closing my account & friends are closing their accounts. Opening a City Index account today. Unfair, stupid decision from IG to not allow free trade, with an unreasonable excuse. I hope you learn the your lesson and apologise to your users.

@JohanDXB @IGcom Because they are absolute clowns. You can tell that, by the fact they offer a sharedealing service on the phone, but a lot of the time it takes 30-45mins to answer a form. They are a complete joke!!!!

@IGcom @FSCS this is blatant market manipulation by IG. Everyone close your accounts and move to another Brokerage. By restricting buying this will crash the share price allowing Hedge fund Shorts to cover and make massive profits at the expense of the Retail Customer @FSCS ACT!
