Reported payout problems

  • October 2026 · Trustpilot reviews

    On Trustpilot, at least 5 one-star reviews (one reviewer posted twice) dated 2026-10-20 to 2026-10-27 say payouts were denied or withheld, or an account was blocked at a payout request, after a video interview or account-ownership review (one cites about $1,700 withheld). The firm replied on related reviews that a denial was upheld and fees are non-refundable, and on another that the trader had not shown a basic understanding of trading and the decision was final. These are a small share of the roughly 22,000 reviews in the last 12 months, and the reviews are unverified.

Worth knowing: At least 5 Trustpilot reviews dated 2026-10-20 to 2026-10-27 report payouts denied or withheld after account-ownership interviews; no news or regulator reports found.
