Account verification and client support experience


Kaspars

Question

Hello everyone! I have encountered a problem with account creation process.
I created my account more than a week ago, after I left my old broker and withdrew the money. And now my main problem is that even with all documents showing up as verified and checked (as in uploaded screenshot) but my account is still on PENDING status...
So far my experience with client support has been very poor, mainly because I have called the support number at least 3 times and every conversation ends with a promise that my account manager will contact me during the day, and thats it - so I wait and nothing, not even a message with details about the delay etc. So it is starting to feel like they are just trying to make up excuse to end call with me.
I had read that you can try to use Live chat to activate acc faster, but the live chat does not appear on site, when Im visiting it - tried every browser there is on my PC, but nothing.
As for now I am sitting on cash for more than a week and I havent been able to trade, because I cannot deposit on pending account, so here I am waiting for something to happen, so I can finally start trading...
So maybe anyone have some alternative solution that can speed up the acc creation process?

Hi @Kaspars

The whole account opening process can take up to 2 weeks if additional information is required. You can reach out to accountopening.en@ig.com. The team will reach out to you if any details are required.

All the best - MongiIG

    • Sainsburys full year earnings and Unilever’s first quarter trading update both say the same thing, UK consumers are in for higher prices. The war in Ukraine, supply chain issues and the effects of ongoing Covid all to blame.      
    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead.
