IG platform is still not fixed and locking me out for 50 mins unable to trade, lost so much money!


Someuser

Question

I have contacted IG about this ongoing issue via email, have not heard back, it's been 5 weeks. 

Mobile platform:

The prices stop updating, account balances disappear, happened 3 times, for about 30-50 mins, around 13:30 to 15:30 uk time. 

 

During this time, markets were open and my trades exposed. Lost gains and unable to close positions resulting in massive losses. 

 

IG have failed to provide satisfactory service. I wish no longer to trade with this company and ask that money is returned.

Hi @Someuser,

I will try to get it sent again shortly.

Thanks - Arvin

I have received your email just now, i have reviewed it. I my respectfully disagree with the response provided as it fails to address ALL my described platform issues. 

I have emailed in my response with video of the platform locking me out for 50 mins, which i was able to get on screen record. This video shows and demonstrates the exact problem that has now occured 4 times.

 

2 times it led to loosing potential gains as i couldnt close the positions in green which i wil locked out.

3rd time bot allowing me to close my position sooner leading to massive losses due to price dip.

The second email i sent on 1 Sept, (while i waited for the response from the first email of 20 Aug), has not been responded to also. Can you please check this?

Thank you.

Hi @Someuser,

Thank you for your response.


Unfortunately there isn't much that can be done on the IG Community, this type of queries are dealt by the IG Helpdesk and the Dealing desk.

I would recommend to either email helpdesk.uk@ig.com or call 0800 409 6789 for a resolution.

Thank you - Arvin

    • I've developed an initial version of a market sentiment checker, which utilizes the concept of weighted log returns to gauge the mood of the financial markets. This tool is designed to simplify the complex task of assessing market sentiment by analyzing fluctuations in price data. By applying weights to log returns, it emphasizes the significance of certain data points over others, offering a more nuanced view of market dynamics. This approach allows for a fundamental analysis of market sentiment and provides insights into the current state of the market at any given moment. It serves as a valuable tool for investors and traders looking to make informed decisions based on the underlying sentiment driving market movements. sentiment-sleuth - Github Link

    • Swap Rate: Check the swap rates for your open positions. Overnight loans are calculated based on the difference between the interest rates of a currency pair, and if the difference is small or negative, you will not receive a loan.
