Had some problems with their system hanging and closing out trades that didn't even have stops when I was trading the demo account. raised tickets but they wouldn't investigate beyond a cursory triage because they said the demo system was 'prone to this kind of thing happening but it's ok as the live system is specced up so that it would never happen', which is probably fair comment but it should've raised a red flag for me, I'm a systems engineer. Well 3 months into live trading and it's happened 3 times where the system hangs for almost 2 minutes and when it comes back your trades have been closed out. Once again, their investigation was cursory and suggestive of user error - Trading View and all other internet applications were up and running and there was no outage on my ISP and no other dropped packets according to wireshark. I cannot recommend using IG's platform at all, if you're going to trade with them make sure it's on MT4/5 as their bespoke platform has some fundamental serious issues in my opinion.

Depositing and esp. trying to withdraw your money is extremely SLOW and they charge huge FEES and commissions to deposit and withdraw money. The spreads are huge too. Everything you do they will continually skim money from your account, every deposit, every withdrawal and every trade. A terrible SLOW broker that only knows how to make money by skimming money from clients. When I finally am trying to close my account and withdraw my money, they are asking for heaps of paperwork and are taking a very long time for me to withdraw my money... and I still haven't been able to withdraw my money.

IG claims to be one of the leading brokers and surely they are scam. I've been trading with them for more than 2 years, they always change the settlement prices and then claim that their charts are not accurate. If the charts on their website are not correct how do they expect clients to trade, for example if you place a trade and the market settles at 10091.55 on their live chart, they will say ooh sorry the correct settlement price was 10094.66 They would claim this price to be on third party platform.They will steal your money be warned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They have 0.26 average spread on eur/usd through DMA liquidity feed. I have access to web and advanced platforms. MT4, external platform through API, or order book with L2 dealer platform. No problem with back office support. I would say 24/7 instead of classic 24/5 working hours. Execution is really reliable and fast. In addition, IG offers seminars, market analysis and broad range of services on website.

What's up everybody. I want to make some notes to existing comments. In addition to good brokerage service and variety of trading accounts, you can see that there is no ECN account available. At first glance, this is an inconvenience, but in fact, it is not an obstacle. All conditions stated by the company are real without double standards. A live trading account can be registered quickly, the same with deposit and withdrawal of funds. They have an access to all other markets + Bitcoins!

All was going OK initially but then I decided it wasn't for me and wanted to withdraw my money. I submitted the request online that showed pending. And suddenly, their site is broken, and I can’t access it anymore... I suspected that it was a scam.

I recommend IG for forex traders because of the low forex fees. I liked that IG is regulated by several financial authorities, for me, this provides an important layer of safety.

Unable to withdraw. And the server can’t be connected at the critical moment. And they don’t reply to my messages. Do not be cheated.

One of the best broker platform I used so far, Customer support is very good and helpful when facing problem. Sometimes events are attractive and can receive the fully prizes. The most important thing is all those transactions are successful.

IG has become a kind of a standard for every decent broker to be regulated by third-party organisations. Speaking about trading conditions, they are fine, from my perspective. There three different types of account with different spreads and it is quite easy to choose the one which will suit your personal trading style the best because there is a quiz which will help you.
