Instaforex I have enjoyed trading with instaforex broker

I have enjoyed trading with InstaForex broker, As the MT4 platform executed so fast and they provided Real-Time Forex Charts. Besides, I found many helpful tools and indicators In their customized MT4platforms versions. I prefer the one-click trading, PatternGraphix, superior forex desk with an expert advisor. Especially they have many bonus facilities. Really I am satisfied to trade with InstaForex and want to say others.

Instaforex Payment not received

Instaforex account no: [protected] AM LE ROUX

I have made a deposit of US$10k into InstaForex bank account on +-17 November 2021. Payment never showed up in my account. (Even though a previous deposit to this same bank account did work correctly). Eventually my "contact" - from InstaForex, said to me my payment "bounced back" into my account because of a change on THEIR side, but I never got my money back.

I've logged numerous queries with Customer Support at Instaforex. Each time they said "We will get back to you", but then nothing happens. I sent them a POP (Proof of Payment); I've sent them numerous email queries; I've had numerous "Live Chats" with their Customer Support on Client Cabinet - but without success. Each time they'd say: "Your issue was referred to Finance Department and we will get back to you" - but then NOTHING HAPPENS.

After a few days I'll request a response and then I HAVE TO START TO EXPLAIN THE ISSUE FROM SCRATCH! They seem not to have a record of previous conversations and they never answer any questions in writing / by email.

I've made a number of screenshots (as proof of our discussions) but that's ALL I HAVE. They do not automatiocally send me a "Record of our Live Chat conversation" by email. Except when I insist. So, I have a few copies.

Don't know what else I can do. It seems as if I'm talking to dark space! I haven't once get an official response from the company by email or by a telephone call. I DO HAVE a few "screenshots" from Live Chat conversations. Some of them mentioned that "They're sending me a POP of my refund", but then nothing happens thereafter. I'll attach a few screenshots.

PLEASE HELP!

Yours faithfully
AM LE ROUX

PS: I've got many more "screenshots" of conversations with Instaforex - just ask if you need more proof.

Desired outcome: Want my money back into my bank account

Instaforex Mismanagement of instaforex funds at forum.mt5.com

I want to bring it to your notice that the Administrator of MT5 who manages forum.mt5.com is Misappropriating the funds that is being released by Instaforex. Recently there was a contest which is called the Best content Contest according to the rule

6.5. It is guaranteed that the entire prize pool will be distributed among the Participants. Those Participants who break the Contest Rules are excluded from the distribution of the prize pool, and their share in the prize pool is proportionally redistributed among other participants.

Unfortunately, the forum Administrator has allocated only about half of the money that instaforex gives to just about five people as can be found in this link

https://forum.mt5.com/showthread.php?252760-Winners-of-quot-Best-Content-Contest-quot-for-every-round.

There is a user that did not meet up with one of the requirement of the contest, this member did not open a thread as the main requirement for the Contest and yet he is among the winners declared, it therefore means that the Administrator is Misappropriating the funds and members that have worked very hard in the contest who met all the rules are not paid.

Instaforex should investigate this matter and bring things back to normal because your reputation at forum.mt5.com is going to be damaged by the activities of the Administrator.

Complaints of members can be found on this page
https://forum.mt5.com/showthread.php?243740-2nd-stage-of-the-Best-content-contest-From-(May-1-to-May-31-2020.)/page3

I wait for your intervention in the matter.

Instaforex verification

Last month I had an issue about my verification. They dined my first level verification because I did not send my picture with holding hand. But when I submitted that they verified my account after half an hour. Except this, I have no major issue with InstaForex. Orders are always very fast to fill, no slippage and no spread widening even in news time. The best thing is that they do not make any delay in withdrawing money. Five days ago I made a withdrawal request of $130 through Neteller and they send it to my account within 4 hours that is faster than many other broker. So far I think I made the right choice.

Instaforex don't join instaforex!!! robbed me of my own deposit money

I had heard a lot that they scam but never believed. But now I stand after having losed my own 350$ that I deposited(not the bonus money) in to their so called "Portal Forum" account(my biggest mistake). I was trading with my own money. After a whole month I requested a withdrawal of 150$, considering it to be my own money. But instead of giving me my money back, they blocked my account. There is by no means any clause in even their own 'terms and conditions' according to whcih they have the right to rob us of our own money, even in case we voilate their so called 'terms'(which I did not voilate at all).
5 months of intense work, but in the end filling the pockets of instaforex. Deposit proofs are also attached, so insta can not deny that it was my own money, not their bonus.
My account number: 1428257
Give me my money back Insta!

InstaForex is a truthful and dependable broker. Recently I won their FX-1 Rally contest, got $200 as prize and made some profit able to withdraw in less than one working day via Netellar. That is very impressive. Their customer support is very helpful, they solved many issues, once I got a serious slippage that amount also got refund. I am very astonished finding this, that here, Instaforex suspected as scam! I know they are lying.

I don't know what went wrong with your account but I think you should have opened an account at their website. I have an account with Instaforex for six years already and they never once took anything from my account balance or charged me with any doubtful fees. In fact, my investment is growing with them thanks to their smooth platform and reasonable spread. Also, my withdrawals and deposits are processed with ease. In my six years, I think I've withdrawn more than $30, 000 already. Based on my personal experience, I would say that Instaforex is an honest and reliable broker.

Never heard of portal forum account anywhere else. I personally suggest everyone open instaforex account through their official website. I opened my one on their official website about two years ago, and no withdraw and deposit problems at all. Though it happened once that the withdrawal process took one week, but the fund was safe and cutomer services responded quickly. I noticed the thread owner may used some forexcopy services, which may raise the concerns. My own experience is that get to knwo well about the trader you preparing to invest, otherwise do the trader by yourself. At the beginning it may suffer, but finally it will be better than asking somebody else to trader for yourself.

The first time I knew Instaforex from my friend, he told me if I wanted to try their luck in the world of forex trading, I must join InstaForex. After I joined them, I get a lot of advantages. Registration and verification very easy. For me being a beginner to forex trading, they gave me a demo account and also video training how to become a successful trader. They taught me start from the basics until I was ready to actually trading real, and I am very happy now I have the advantage that a lot of forex trading with InstaForex.

Trading with InstaForex has been a good and fruitful experience for me and I guess for all newbies as this company allows initial deposits from $1. But I remember that I didn't need to deposit my own money as I requested for non deposit bonus and after passing verification levels, I got a $100 bonus and I started to trade very soon. Spreads are from 1 pip in major currencies, so I made good earnings trading with EURUSD at the beginning. In one week, I earned 40 pips. By the time, I got experience and now I am trading with binary options and even I have participated in contests for demo accounts and I have won several times.

In my case, I don't feel disappointed of InstaForex. For me, it's all the contrary because thanks to this broker, I could learn more about forex market, especially with its seminars and webinars on line. I opened my trading account with a deposit of $100 3 years ago and now I can say that I have $15, 000 only in earnings. Every time I have asked for a withdrawal, the process was very fast, just a few hours by Neteller. MT4 works perfectly, with no requotes even in the release of economic news. Also, this broker allows me to use any strategy in the trading platform and I consider that contests are a great opportunity to earn extra money.

I've never been disappointed by the services of instaforex. They are a reliable broker, which always offers something new. They have a variety of bonuses and ways to help me boost my trading income. I currently use their forexcopy system, have 2 trading accounts and make at least $1, 500 per week. The money transfers are instant and never fail. I also use demo accounts to participate in contests and win real money without investment from my side.

I have joined instaforex for 5 months and I always feel fortunate because during this time there are many advantages that I can. This broker also provides a video tutorial that really helped me to do trading and my trading process are not lost and when the withdrawal went smoothly with always on the time. System security to our trading account is also very tight, and we can keep an eye on our account via email or mobile number. So in my opinion, every trader is obliged to join with this broker only.
