Stopping Push Messages


RAM66

Question

Hi,

I want to stop receiving push messages to my phone that relate to 'movements on the day', of say, oil, gold, shares etc.

I am happy with price alerts which I know how to set and use and can switch on/off in settings, but I cannot find anything in settings that would suggest that I can stop these other random messages from coming through, sometimes in the middle of the night.  I don't want to disable all notifications from IG at my phone end, I just want to stop this category of message.

Can anyone suggest how I can do this please?

Thanks

Rob

Hey @RAM66

Thanks for your post. 

The push notifications you're referring to are sent out by one of our teams. They will target clients who have traded certain markets when they do pushes. They only way to turn these off are through the settings on your phone. Unfortunately this will get rid of the pride/ indicator alerts you received. 

We don't have the option to remove one client from these but it's a great piece of feedback I can give to them and once some measures have been put in place we can look into deactivating these notifications for you. 

All the best, 

Charlotte

I do not believe that IG cannot change this. They choose not to do so for marketing purposes. Sending these annoying unwanted messages amounts to spam.

    • Just now, according to Glassnode data, the number of addresses holding more than 100 BTC has reached a four-month low, currently standing at 15,955.
    • Bitcoin and other major crypto experienced a dip in value on Thursday, erasing gains made earlier in the week. The decline came after the Federal Reserve signaled that interest rates would remain high for an extended period, with Bitcoin retreating 2.3% to $26.5K. Despite the bearish pressure,  the founder and CEO of Bitcoin joint mining company Xive,  Didar stated that the stagnant rate increase is positive for Bitcoin. He suggested that this could reduce the attractiveness of mainstream financial assets to institutional investors in the long term, potentially driving a new rally in Bitcoin's price. Major altcoins and exchange tokens also struggled on Thursday, with ETH changing hands at $1,585, down about 2.6% from Wednesday. Other altcoins such as BNB and BGB also experienced losses. Despite these challenges, some analysts believe that Bitcoin is likely to remain within its recent range between $25,000 and $30,000. Riyad from digital asset data platform Kaiko, noted that the market needs a catalyst to mount any serious rally.  What are your thoughts? 
    • Traditional banking systems served as the gatekeepers of financial services for long, dictating how people access loans, save, and invest in opportunities. Typically controlled by a centralized system with a single authority such as a bank or government in total charge, this centralization is limited by high fees, restricted accessibility and slow transaction speed. Dentralized finance, DeFi, got introduced as a blockchain-based financial system that removes intermediaries or central authorities, and utilizes smart contracts instead. By eliminating intermediaries, DeFi delivers core benefits like improved accessibility into the financial system for everyone having internet connection regardless of their location. DeFi is also valued for its transparency. While traditional banking system often deny customers audits on how their assets are being managed, DeFi, through the help of blockchain allows anyone access to tracking and auditing transactions, thereby raising trust. Furthermore, DeFi also offers various financial services and products like DEX, lending and borrowing, stablecoins etc, all known to proffer varied innovative solutions, while operating 24/7 in contrast to traditional finance. DeFi isn’t flawless as issues like insecurity, lack of consumer protection etc are still prevalent; however, the growth of DeFi has been impressive; since its introduction, the total value locked in DeFi protocols has grown significantly indicating that the demand for DeFi services is fast growing. DeFi seems to be redefining financial industry by offering an alternative to traditional banking systems. With the increasing adoption, can we expect to see an overhaul in the way we access financial services?
