Ratings and reviews

Works well for me. Never had any problems.... After recent updates, charts will no longer load... EDIT: It's been over 5 months and charts still won't load on android. Other reviews have also highlighted this problem. This used to work fine so obviously broken by an app update at some point.

Only just found this. been using IG Invest for a couple of months, which is very poor. This seems much more capable. Why aren't users directed to this rather than IG Invest? One big problem though, they advertise GTC (limit) orders, but not available on most stocks I'm trading. WHY NOT? They've added it for a couple of specific ones I've asked, but should be on all. Not easy to get a response when requested!

Do not trust!!!!! Trying to withdraw YOUR money is a nightmare!!!!! They seem to try anything and everything to stop you drawing it!!!!!! First you cannot register your bank details, because of app issues!!!! Then when you are able to finally try draw, and absolutely nothing happens except they keep your money!!!!!!
