[OIHV Not Tax Wrapper Enabled]

Thank you @KoketsoIG but why was this not enabled when it was added? Do we have to request this each time we ask for a new security to be added?

[OIHV Not Tax Wrapper Enabled]

Hi,

You recently added this instrument for share dealing but I cannot buy it in my SIPP due to the error: "Instrument Not Tax Wrapper Enabled."

Please could you resolve this as it should be available for both ISA and SIPP? Do you not do this by default or is this just an oversight on this occasion?

Thank you.

Yes please, as per my original request.

How much longer is LSE:OIHV going to take to get set up on your platform please? It has been over 2 weeks now since my request. Please could I have an update?

Hi @BabisG,

Thank you for contacting us.

Thanks,

That is what I just told YOU. I never asked for OIH to be added. I asked for OIHV with ISIN IE000NXF88S1 to be added.

[Market update: will gold price remain resilient amid rising Treasury yields and a strengthening US dollar?]

As the USD is counterfeited printed by the government and banksters into oblivion the last man standing will be gold - the only real money. 💰 Peter Schiff and Chris MacIntosh (Capitalist Exploits - a SUPERB newsletter by the way) are both very positive on gold and commodities as the USD inevitably gets destroyed like the Zimbabwe Dollar and the Reichsmark in the Weimar Republic.

I trust governments 100% - to lie about everything and abuse their exorbitant privilege to fund their friends with counterfeit fiat money currency.

@CharlotteIG why is this manual currency conversion option not available in my SIPP? I saw a few months ago it was available and then it was taken away again.

[Why No Covered Calls in ISA and SIPP?]

Hi,

I received a nonsense response when asking this by email so I will ask it here again and hopefully get more sense.

Why can we not write (sell) Covered Calls and Puts in our ISA and SIPP through IG? Is this a nanny state restriction or an IG one? Obviously there is no point telling me to open a CFD or Spread Betting account to do this because then my Calls would not be "Covered" would they?

Please IG if our corrupt nanny state does not disallow it could you enable Options (just for covered calls and puts would be fine) in ISAs and SIPPs and if not then would this be possible through an offshore account such as in Dubai? If yes to the latter then how do we do this? Do you have a link?

Thank you.

FYI all. Emailed IG directly and got this back. Might be helpful for everyone.

 

'Please be advised that as per regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the PRIIPs) regulation, it states that all retail clients must be provided with a Key Information Document (KID) prior to the purchase on any security (PRIIP) within the scope of the regulation. The Key Information Document (KID) is a document that provides key information about investment funds, in order to help a potential investor compare different investment funds and assess which fund meets their specific needs.

We've recognized that Vanguard S&P 500 ETF is a US ETF that doesn't hold a Key Information Document (KID). As such we've removed the ability for European retail clients and UK retail clients to trade this equity.

We can only allow professional clients to trade ETFs without a KID. All retail clients may close their existing positions in the ETFs, however, no buying of the security is allowed.

Ultimately, in order to purchase security it must provide a KID. It is up to the ETF issuer to provide a KID. However, most US issuers do not.'

This KiiD business is a right pain!! I left Interactive Brokers over this issue with REITs. Why can brokers not apply common sense and ignore ridiculous regulations that make no sense whatsoever? It is our money (not according to the banks I know) so as long as the share / ETF is on a regulated exchange why can we not invest in it? Is the solution to open an account somewhere like Dubai that isn't a nanny state? Has anyone done this from the UK?

[Why No Daily Change Column For Positions?]

Hi,

Am I missing something or is there a hidden way to add a daily position change and daily price change column to our Position Views? This would appear to be one of the most basic columns to have available but I cannot see it to add it.

If this could be added that would be most helpful.

Thank you in eager anticipation.

[IG Customer Support Request To Add an ETF]

Dear IG Support,

What kind of response to a customer that asks you to add an ETF to your platform is it to state what you DO support that has ZERO relevance to the security that was asked to be added? Are we idiots? I don't care what you DO support - that was not my question. When asking you to add an ETF or any other security for trading onto your platform these are the possible responses:

• Yes, certainly sir / madam, we can add that within the next 24 hours or so.
•  No, we cannot add that because ... [good reason here].
• No, you are an idiot like most of our customers and we don't care what you want to trade. You will take what you are given.

If you see your customers asking for new securities as a nuisance and you want them to go elsewhere, dear IG Support, please be honest, stop wasting our time and just say so and we can move elsewhere.

Thank you so much.

[Have you ever had a broker implement a suggestion you made?]

You sometimes have to wonder these days if companies view their customers as a nuisance instead of a revenue generating asset to their business especially with how much distance they put between the company and their customers. Financial companies are some of the worst I have found, if they are not treating us like criminals (guilty until proven innocent) then they are social distancing themselves from us.
