IG Wealth Management Reviews

Is it standard practice to have to pay money to get your money out??? I am being told that I have to pay $5k in order to withdraw my funds. Is this how that really works???

Up until a few years ago we had our own financial advisor with IG. We were then kicked to the curb because we didn't have a big enough portfolio.

Now anything we need to do has to go through Winnipeg with a myriad of phone calls, callbacks and security questions. I have to even explain to them why I want my money from my TFSA!

Ridiculous. Now I want to leave them but I am told they will kill me with fees for switching to another broker.

DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM . I WAS paying a lum sum payment on mortgage.

They never took it out. Now I'm hounding them to do it so I can move on.

I'm pulling out all my investments with them. DONT TRUST THEM. THEY DONT DO WHAT THEY SAY .

I WOULDNT PUT A REVIEW IF SERVICE WAS NOT SO POOR. Do not use them

Theyre super friendly when youre giving them money, ignore you completely when you want it back. When I attempted to withdraw RESP funds for my kids my advisor said he was no longer handling the file and gave me a 1800 number. Trouble is, wait times are multiple hours long regardless of time of day and the callback feature doesnt work.

For the last 25 years, I have had consistently low returns on my RRSP return. Now I am older and starting to draw on my investment.

For the past 2 years when withdrawing the funds, IG has made major errors in the withdrawals. Last year, the withdrew the incorrect amount of funds. They fixed it, but it took several calls to get them to do so. This year they deposited the funds into someone else's account.

They had confirmed the account during the withdrawal process.

I am still waiting for them to sort this out. I would not recommend anyone deal with this company.

I have been with IG for over 10 years. I will not stay with them, they switch you from advisor to advisor, they never really get to know you.

My investments never made money and I never felt I was treated properly. I'm done after again getting yet another advisor.

They always promise they will not trade me off but here we go again but not this time!!! I am going elsewhere!

I was led to believe that at least 6% of capital gains p.a. was very realistic when it turned out, 7 years later, to be less than half of that.

I could have received more with GICs, without all the headache.

Moreover, documentation is so convoluted that one has the impression that this is deliberate. Requests for clarification resulted in more confusion.

All in all a very frustrating experience!

I lost $12k with I.G. because of this thing they force you to sign, called DSC (deferred sales charge), the sole purpose of which is to lock-up your money for 7 long years !!!

The I.G. investments had the highest fees and did very poorly; but I could not get the money out because of the DCS I signed. Finally after 7 years of losses, it took almost 3 weeks to dump them on the market; no one wants I.G.

investments. I am not certain, but I think this monstrous DSC is illegal now.
