Suspicious reviews that we found
First of all, they did not allow me to withdraw to a different bank account than the one I used to fund my IG account despite the bank account being mine.*
*The review was found on ForexFraud.com.
I have little to complain about IG.
It has a very easy to use trading platform, although recently changed, which was slightly annoying at the time, it has proved to be much quicker and easier to trade.
The live charts are all that is required, for me, to see an opportunity and easily buy or sell the position.Trades are executed immediately.
I have yet to view their tutorials which I intend to use soon. There is always something to learn.
After some experience of trading with this broker, I realized that it is not necessary to overpay to cooperate with a normal broker on normal terms. I have been with IG Markets for over a year, dispersed $ 100 to $ 1000 for six months, I did not take anything off, but now I get a good interest, and I deduce $ 250-300 per month.
IG Markets at first seemed a good brokerage company on Forex. The company has existed for a long time, the conditions are acceptable, thought the guys will not let you down, but when it came to withdrawing money, then the eyes opened. How can I trust and trade with a broker if I can not withdraw my own money? Constantly there are some absurd reasons for delays and refusals. I really hope that I will withdraw my balance. There I no more kick!
Interesting trading platform to work with. Work with them for a couple of month and everything is ok.
In my opinion this is not the best choice for trading, typical frequent slippage on the feet and the cover does not always work and another plus to everything the connection breaks at inopportune moments.
Easy to trade spread betting very fast to buy & sell trustworthy company. Good customer service
Brilliant service at very good prices. anybody trading/investing should use ig group. the dealers at ig are all so helpful and polite and really know their stuff,joining ig 10 years ago was the best financial decision of my life.

I have been trading with IG now for 12 years, excellent trading platform packed full of all the technical information anyone could need and very easy to use I’ve had no problems
Good. Almost the best. Nothing to complain.
I guess, I go and make some more money with IG markets
