Fundy,

It should be fine now - we think we have found what caused it should now be resolved.

Regards

IanT - I've made a silly mistake. Can't use my calculator properly and accidentaly spent all 100K on one stock (rather than 10k). Now I can't buy a second stock to activate my account. Do I need to sell it all at a loss to be able to start again? Or is the fact that I am not yet activated mean that I won't start on a big loss if I bail it all out now?

Starfrog,

We are going to put a fix in to stop this from happening - you have the option of closing and taking the loss, or we will reset it back for you as a one off but this will not take place until later in the day. If you want us to reset I will let you know when this is done later on.

I better not win the prize now or there'll be a commotion :-)

I've bought 3 stocks this morning but my account still shows 100k and I can not see the stocks as purchased. Can you help please?

Edit later - hope you can find my original purchases as one of my stocks has done well since purchase.

Druid2/All,


There was a problem with the data from the LSE which was causing problems on some accounts - we have had to reset the accounts back to 100,000 sop please accept my apologies for this.

You will need to validate your accounts again and start off with your 2 opening long trades to validate the account.

"we had to make sure all was fixed"
