IG Index ! Had several incorrect statements over a period of 18 months, result, dispute and unable to close positions resulting in losses; did the honourable thing any British Gentlemen would; paid up, never to return. Now using D4F CFD's, so much better than spread betting.

analyzer , not haunting you or anything just accidentally bumped into you , i asked a question of you in regard to a statement you made on another thread in which you stated IG had ripped you off, i presume you did'nt revisit the thread as you did'nt answer me or post there again but as a customer of ig i was wondering how they ripped you off as i would like to avoid this situation myself
regards AoV

Met the Manager, Job Curtis, yesterday. Very impressed, good current discount. I am buying on the strength of his management qualities, excellent Long term. Bought some more EWI this morning, delighted to see a 4.25p inc already, not bad for an IT ! Good discount, has not caught up with change of manager (to Baillee Gifford) and revamp of portfolio.
