Thanks for your first post. 

We are currently experiencing high volumes of calls/ email due to increased volatility on the markets. It's not the normal for clients to have to wait so long for IG to get back to them but all of the client facing team are working as many hours as possible to get back to as many traders. 

We're sorry for the inconvenience

I have been calling them this morning SGT 10.30am due to many trades they auto-closed on my account due to the drop in Crypto and till 11.30am, I still can't get anyone and its really frustrating

The desk are staying on the phone lines and having calls back to back. 

We're sorry that we can't get to everyone as fast as normally.

Yes, when they are not succumbing to a deadly virus that infected 0.001% of the world's population.

It might even be 0.1% at this stage.

Deadly crisis - everyone better go out and buy more freezers and stuff them with more sh!t and thus prevent non-hoarders from being able to buy anything.

Folk are clever, they really are.

Me too. nobody from IG is responding to neither of my emails nor my calls.

I joined IG in March 2020. It takes at least 65 minutes for them to pick up the phone. My account has had so much issues it has been a pain connecting to support.

This really has to improve. Customer's can't be waiting endlessly to get support. With high volume, 10 minutes max or setup web chat for quick help.

Twice I was on both for 30 minutes each time no answer. When you find away to speak to someone at IG tell them to answer the phone please

in March-April I would easily be on hold for up to an hour

but of late it's less than half an hour, yesterday it was pretty much instant

I did have one call where they picked up and took care of an issue, but when they talked to me I could no longer hear them so they hung up and got back to me by mail

    • I just learned about the recent listing of Lisk's utility token LSK on Bitget exchange, I'm curious to understand how this new development might impact both the token itself and the overall Lisk project. Apparently, this listing on Bitget adds another major exchange to the roster, alongside well-established platforms like Kraken, Kucoin, Binance, and OKX. This increased availability on different exchanges generally enhances liquidity and accessibility for traders and investors. More exchange listings can potentially attract a broader audience and bring in new participants to the Lisk ecosystem. To LSK token holders, I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on this recent listing on Bitget. Do you believe it will have a significant impact on the token's value and the project's trajectory? How do you see this development fitting into Lisk's broader goals of making crypto and Web3 accessible to everyone? Let's discuss and share our insights
    • As a DeFi and Web3 enthusiast, I find projects like Rootstock Infrastructure Framework (RIF) to be incredibly promising and exciting for the future of decentralized finance. The idea of providing an infrastructure framework on top of the Rootstock blockchain, along with open and decentralized tools, is a step towards making DeFi more accessible and scalable. The RIF token, serving as the native token of the ecosystem, plays a crucial role in facilitating the consumption of RIF products and services. This utility aspect adds intrinsic value to the token and aligns with the broader trend of utility tokens in the crypto space. The fact that RIF is listed on major exchanges such as Bitget, Mexc, Binance, and Gateio enhances its liquidity and accessibility for a broader audience. This, coupled with the ability for RIF token holders to participate in a growing network of decentralized applications (dApps) and products, fosters a sense of community and active engagement I would love to hear from other RIF token holders about their thoughts on the project. What aspects of RIF are you most excited about?
