Installation
The steps for installing our Mobile Dealing software will vary according to the type of device that you are using. Please select the relevant section: Mobile and BlackBerry phones or PDAs.
Mobile and BlackBerry phones
There are three ways you can get the software onto your phone:
- Text 'mobile' to 80800 (free service; available in the UK only)
- Log into this site and submit the form on the Mobile Support page in the My Account area
- Type www.igmobile.com into the web browser on your phone and follow the on-screen instructions
Download software The first two methods will result in our sending a WAP Push message to your phone. When you receive the message, select 'Download' to install the software and connect to the server if prompted in order to begin the installation process.
Location of software Once you have installed the software on your phone, the Mobile Dealing icon will appear somewhere in the phone's menu. The exact location of the software will vary depending on your device. Common locations for the Mobile Dealing software are Programs, Applications or Games. (See Troubleshooting for further possible locations.)
The Mobile Dealing icon should look like this:

Logging in When you select the Mobile Dealing option on your device, you will be presented with a login screen. To log in, just enter your usual username (or account number) and password; the same details that you would use to log into this site.
For BlackBerry devices, when you initially open the application you will be asked if your connection is via a proxy server. If you have a corporate BlackBerry it is likely to go through a proxy connection and you will therefore need to check this option. Personal BlackBerry devices are unlikely to access through a proxy. Please see Troubleshooting for further information.
Security messages During the login process, you should choose to accept any security messages and select 'Yes' if asked to allow permission for your phone to send and receive data. If you are asked which data network to use, please select the 'Always ask' option, and then choose to connect using GPRS. PDAs
To install the Mobile Dealing software onto your PDA, you will initially need to follow these steps:
Prepare PDA for installation Prepare for the installation by connecting your PDA to your PC via the USB cradle.
Check Java is installed Before downloading our software, please check that your PDA has Java installed:
- Select Programs from the Start menu on your PDA and see if Jeode is available (if it's there, you've got Java).
- If you don't have Java installed, you should install this first. You can get this free of charge by logging into this site and visiting the Mobile Support page in the My Account section.
Download software Once you have Java on your PDA, please install our Mobile Dealing software as follows:
Click the Download for PDA button, and select Open or Run. This will begin the installation. Please follow the on-screen prompts.
Location of software Once installed, select Programs and then the Mobile Dealing folder. In here you will find the Mobile Dealing application.
Logging in You will then be presented with the login screen. To log in, just enter your usual username (or account number) and password; the same details that you would use to log into this site.
Note: Some PDAs can use the software for standard mobile phones by navigating to www.igmobile.com. In order to use this version you will need to have a MIDlet manager listed in your programs. Once installed the software will be located in the MIDlet manager. Terms and conditions
