@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.

@IGClientHelp Make this the 6th time in last 9 mths..... Down twice in 24hrs and still no response from IG as to why the platform keeps crashing ! The reason is simple. Because they know what the issue is but dont want to spend the money to fix it. Do you even care ???

@Woodysue @IGSquawk @IGClientHelp Yes, it is... though IG won't worry about that, they have shown me a very low level of customer service 😢

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

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

@IGClientHelp what is wrong with your app? I tried selling my @AMCTheatres stock when it was up and it didn’t let me and now the stock keeps crashing and causing errors every time I’ve tried to sell. I’ve called you three times each time on hold for 30mins and then cut of

@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?
