Hi mate .. I know they are not CHESS sponsored however I know from some of their community forum posts they have a corporate actions team. Also this from Hotcopper user may shed insight:

In fact, I like the IB way of doing it! Imagine having it all come in to your IB account under a Corporate Actions feature where you can elect to opt in or not .. that would be great.

With IG per above post looks like it is somewhat automated but you still have to apply through a help desk/corp actions team. Not the end of the world.

I have an IB account and an IG account (and a Superhero account and a Selfwealth account for that matter!).
