IG system crashed? Losing money due to this issue? Let's move things forward and take some POSITIVE action!


Recommended Posts

I started trading with IG on Friday 28/1. The next day, I experienced the same issues as many others have raised here. I was not able to close my position when I was making a profit. I could only watch my profit turning into a big loss!!  I tried to contact IG but there's no way to get through them. 

I moved from Trading212 to IG and thought I would be getting a better service with a fee paying platform. I was SO WRONG!!!  I wasn't completely happy with T212, but at least I never experienced any technical problem like this with IG!!!!

I have screenshot and video as evidence for not being able to close my position. I also tried to log in from the phone app but only saw a technical error message. IG must take responsibility for the losses due to their recurring technical problem! How can they get away from this at all?!

 I am now looking for another reliable platform (yes, leaving IG only after the 2nd day of joining it!). Please let me know if you have one to recommend, but I will read up their community forum to make sure no similar issues have occurred. 

In the meantime, I will also be raising this with Trading Standards, MSE or whoever will assist with the matter. Each of us who have experienced the same problem should report to the concerned authority/organisation, unless IG is willing to settle this with us before the matter get escalated!

    • Investing in crypto is quite a thrilling venture if one has the right knowledge and the perseverance to handle the downside whenever they arise. Like any other industry, there are days when the going gets tough like we have been experiencing in the last couple of days. The sentencing of CZ to four months imprisonment might have also contributed to the market downturn due to his influence in the space however, the drop in price provides avenue for experienced traders to DCA and prepare ahead of market recovery. Coincidentally, there is an ongoing event on Bitget tagged "May savings carnival" where users can leverage to buy some specific tokens like USDT, BTC and ETH and earn incredible APR. This offer avails trader with prize pool of up to $1500 on their deposit if they meet the deposit requirement. Similarly, traders can subscribe to the exchange saving product and win a $500 Amazon gift cards. Personally, I feel this kind of events are geared towards giving back to the users in one form or the other as traders not only benefit from their trades but also receive cash prizes and gift which serves as a form of motivation to them. Have you won any of this cash prizes before? share your experience
    • This BTC dip is rough, but this BGB trade mining event sounds interesting.  I'll check it out! Might be a good way to hedge against the volatility.
