You phone sales to ask the spread on an instrument.
They ask you if you're a client. If so, can i have your name & account number.
I refuse to give them this info as i don't see it as relevant because my question is purely sales related, so lets pretend i am not an existing client, but just a new potential customer enquiring about a product.
After being transfered to 2 other desks, with all 3 desks asking me the same questions, the last person says just as i have a right to not give them such info, they have a right to ask for & demand that info, and because i've already said i have an account, he isn't willing to tell me the spread - A PURELY SALES RELATED ISSUE, which i had phoned sales to find the answer to.
Next thing, the guy hangs up.
How they can expect to keep one single customer, i don't know .
I've alway had problems with them, here is my story ...
in a nut shell, the customer help are absolutely useless, they havent a clue about how the trading software works. It takes over 5 min for them to reply!!
Thants just the support!, HOW MANY TIMES DOES MY PRICE GET REQUOTED!!
I've lost ALOT of money because of 2 things
1. Kept requoting me
2. the system is slow, I waited over 5min for an action to work, in that time I lost alot of money, made a complaint to the head people there, they said the same old cr**, were having problems with our system. I mean how many time are you going to use that STUPID excuse? You've spent over million pounds developing a system, and you get problems EVERY day!
I'm now thinking of going to IG Index, do they requote like cmc ?
surely no other SB company can be worse then this horse ...p of a company
Nice one
Wish they were that helpful with me.
Quick question to all guys having problems with cmc (arrgh)
When I get requoted EVERYtime, is this because I dont have a limit set? i.e. I I said for instance buy a market order, then create a new order and say if google went up $2, take the profit. What Im trying to say is, if I do this BEFORE I trade, will it mean, I ** defitnatly ** will get stopped out?
- dont know if this make any sense?
Thanks
Thanks Fortune500, I'm going to open an account with them, cant wait to get rid of cmc!! the cr**** software is taking up too much of my harddrive!!
