Afternoon all, does IG admit/ confirm/ accept that there is a problem placing an order on the MT4 platform?

I am experiencing the same issues and really dont know which way to turn!!

If there was at least a confirmation that there is a technical issue then i will be able to move on and continue to trade with another broker for the time being or until it has been resolved.

Thanks

Hey, 

Thanks for your post. IG monitors who usually respond to community members are part of or used to be on the client facing teams. Due to increased volume monitors are having to help with the increase in calls/ email. 

There are not any issues with the platform but some may be experiencing issues with the MyIG page. You can always check our status here: status.ig.com

We're aware that our call volumes are high so if you're experiencing issues I would suggest emailing us with details of the previous trades. We will take into consideration that you would have tried to call us at the time and get back to everyone as soon as possible. 

I will get back to everyone as soon as I can.

All the best 

Just checked the IG platform status for MT4. It says it's 'operational'.  I can assure you that it's not working. Please can we have some 'real' answers.

I am new here, I thought I would come here to check if there was any help as I have been trying to get through to IG on phone and email for many days without any luck.

@CharlotteIG I guess a relevant question to ask based on your response would be, when do you (IG) expect call volumes to decrease, or more staff to be put on, to handle all these customers inquiries? 

I have multiple emails sent to the helpdesk team along with my account manager and another contact within the team and nobody has called me back.. more and more problems keep happening and I just cant get through to try and start resolving them.. It is starting to cost me money. 

I chose IG because, up until now, you seemed to be the most robust and reliable customer service out of many brokers.. and I appreciate that these are unprecedented times putting everyone under immense pressure, but it would be good to know what IG is doing to assist with getting through these issues?

Firstly thank you for understanding that broker are under pressure at the moment due to recent events. 

Calls are starting to decrease and we have had all of our trained dealers who are still within the company to come back to our client facing team to help. Further to this, we have our client facing team voluntarily working overtime. It's still not perfect but we're making a lot of progression with emails and call time is decreasing. 

I would like to take this time to apologise. This isn't up to the standard of customer service we're usually able to provide but we're doing everything we can to get back to where we were. 

I've spoken to a member of TS who will call you in the morning when possible. 

All the best

    • 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.
