IQ Option
Reviews and Complaints

I have been trading on Iq Option for over 5 years now. Recently I made several withdrawals and usually it would take about 1 to 2 days to process. However, I noticed that my last withdrawal was taking unusually long so I decided to contact support via chat. Thats when I was told that my account was under review and as such the withdrawal was on hold indefinitely. I didnt mind the review but what made me upset is that they could neither tell me why my account was under review when it was fully verified nor give me a timeframe for how long such a process would take. I decided to google this issue and realised many persons had similar issues with some even complaining that the process took weeks and months while some claimed they never got their withdrawals. I started doubting Iq Option and even started questioning whether they were actually a scam company who will now prevent me from accessing my money now that im actually becoming consistent with making profits. I eventually got my withdrawal 5 days after and some of my doubts have eased so i decided to write this review for anyone who is wondering how long it actually takes for them to review your account. Hope this helps.

This is a follow up to my complaint few days ago, May 11 2023. It seems to me that IQ Option is not paying attention to the complaints of their clients. They're turning a blind eye and a deaf ear when it comes to withdrawal requests. It has been 10 days since I submitted a withdrawal request that they canceled and from that time to date, I have submitted 3 withdrawal requests because they canceled the first two requests under the reason of INTERNAL ERROR just to delay payment. This broker is such a headache, not just to me, but I believe to all other clients withdrawing profits. Their support is useless as well, and will only offer empty apologies and give a reason that the account is under review and that it would take longer than usual. I believe all client accounts of those submitting withdrawal requests are verified and there is no reason for an account to be reviewed for security purposes or whatever their reason is for reviewing an account.

Last May 5, 2023 I submitted a withdrawal request. Few days later, May 8, they canceled my request and their reason is INTERNAL ERROR. I emailed their support and questioned the reason why they canceled my withdrawal. Their INTERNAL ERROR should not be the client's concern or problem. This should not be the used as grounds for canceling a withdrawal request. I submitted another withdrawal request the same day and 2 days later, May 10, they canceled my withdrawal request again under the same reason. The pattern here is that in order for IQ Option to delay sending out payments is that create unreasonable grounds to cancel one's request to withdraw. Nevertheless, I have been in contact with their support complaining about it but all they ever say is sorry and that my account now is under verification and review. I don't see any reason why they should verify my account since it's already verified. Moreover, review again? And for how long will this take? They can't even tell because it's im their terms and conditions as what they claim! If this company is always oing to give their clients difficulty in withdrawing funds, why even be at customer-oriented business? I'm quite certain I'm not the only they do this to. Last month, they did this to me as well. This is the second time they're giving me a hard time withdrawing my earnings! Whoever IQ Option employee is going to read this SHOULD NOT ADVISE ME to contact support because I have been doing that for the past few days and their support is useless! I want their higher ups to address this matter as this not just an isolated case.

iqoption scam my money that I deposited through my bank card. Due to their ridiculous rules that I can't withdrawal my own money which I recovered from lost into my bank card after 3 months has passed. I used iqoption since 2016, I have never got any profit due to my lack of trading skills.

Since 2022, I started to understand trading and start to recovered some of my money. When I want to withdrawal those money that I recovered from lost, they start to play with my e-wallet issue and declining my withdrawal request for no reason. I received emails every time I withdrawal such as "your withdrawal request is canceled. Reason is blanket.

This is a follow up to my previous complaint dated April 5 and 7, respectively. I was asked by the support of IQ Option to provide my information. I thought that finally they will process my withdrawal so I waited yet another 24 hours before they reply to me, and when they did just now, they give me yet again another generic answer. I'm quite certain I'm not the only victim here. I want to know how those withdrawal issues of those who complained here got resolved. Have they gotten their money from IQ Option? If so, how? And please don't recommend that PaigeCubbin person because I don't trust who ever that is. I already tried contacting him/her, and he/she is suspicious. To whoever IQ Option person who will reply to this email. Don't tell me to contact your support because you're support just gave me the same old generic response to my concern, and I have been in constant communication with them since March 22. I want my money and this should be escalated to the relevant department.

On date 29th march 2023 11:23am i deposited 10$ but it is not yet came into my iq option account or not in my bank account they are all only making me fool.

They are cheaters i m attaching transaction file

With its utr no.

I did payment to airpay upi qr from iq option.

Last March 22, I requested a withdrawal. To my surprise, my account which is verified became unverified, and I was asked to go through verification again. After several attempts of failed verification, IQ Option finally verified my account, which then allowed me to request for withdrawal. I have been in contact with their support everyday because of my withdrawal issue. The following week, March 29, my withdrawal request was cancelled and their reason is "Internal Error". I then requested for another withdrawal, and I contacted their support again everyday and they keep telling me that my account is under review and that it is a normal business practice. The problem is that they won't even tell you how long that so-called review will take. It's like waiting for all eternity. I cancelled the request around April 1 or 2, thinking that perhaps the company does not permit withdrawal of more than once a month, so I requested again 2 days ago. Yesterday, I started reading all those similar complaints about withdrawals, and I figured I should also air my complaint online for people to know what's going on in this particular broker. I trade the forex market, and I have dealt with several brokers already, but this the first that I have encountered this withdrawal issue. I don't see anything foul in my account, and it is even verified, and yet their support kept telling me that my account is under review. If there's anyone who could help me solve this issue, I would really appreciate it

Now my friend want to change his Gmail password but Google is not responding when he change his email. Google is not sending OTP when my friend want to change his Gmail password. My friend Pankaj Shukla is receiving RBI message from IQ option company side. Anyone here who help with us.

I became a victim of an IQ Option investment scam two years ago.

An IQ Option representative contacted me via email and told me about an investment opportunity that would yield a higher profit in 30 days. When it came time to withdraw my profits, he stopped responding to my emails. I had invested $30,000.

I asked a customer service representative from IQ Option about this, but they claimed not to be aware of my investment.

I was disappointed because I tried my hardest to get my money back but was unsuccessful.

I was reading a story on this website about Paige McCubbin, who has had success helping people who have been the victims of scams carried out by both large companies like IQ Option, Coinbase, and Blockchain as well as by lone con artists, get their money back.

I messaged her on Telegram, her handle is Paigecubbin, and she was able to find my money and send it to my bank account in three days.

I advise you to try calling her in order to get your money back.

I have been a loyal customer of iq options since 2017 and now they have given me 3 days notice that they are closing all of my cryptocurrency positions which will lose me thousands of pounds because of this. I have sent many messages to the support team and they refuse to reply or help me. Why should I lose my hard earned money through there actions

I deposited some money into IQ Option and ended up doubling it.

After a certain amount of time, it started slowing down and became unusable for me on multiple browsers.

I tried contacting support and was unable to get through.

I tried to withdraw my money but the process is long and cumbersome.

This has never been a problem on any other site.

Never seen a company so blatantly screwing over customers to get them to either lose their money or have the 'inactivity fee' kick in and rip it all away slowly.

I've withdrawn my money to card, was told to verify. I was verified before then told to verify. I verified and my money was stuck on in progress. Tried to call and was told I would be called back by auto record and still waiting it's been 14 days now. Sent 6 support emails was told the support takes 24hours its need 14 days now. I contact Facebook was told skill is faster and takes 24 hours. Tried skrill and it's 4 days now. How do I get my money back.

My account is fully verified and I have make 6 withdrawals request via bank transfer method but they delayed my request for more than 20 business days already(withdrawals request from 25 Jul 2022). When I tried to inquire with customer support, they told me that my account is under review/validation by relevant departments as it was in the terms and conditions but cannot provide the specific timeframe it will take until it’s done. They also disable my live chat function to stop me direct contact the support operator on live chat to inquire my withdrawal status cause it over the standard timeframe(1-3 days). What kind of service/process & client support is that? Please don’t trust this broker. I am about to file a compliant with CySEC

I'm trading in IQ option for more than 5 years and was not facing an issue earlier. But on 02nd week of August'2022, I have attained the worldwide No.1 position in their leader board and made a good profit. While I was trying to withdraw the profit of more than $13,500 on 11&16th of August'2022, they had blocked me from their chat option and withdrawal is still on progress for more than 16 days as on date and not received the payment yet. The only option was to contact them is through their support team mail but they always say my account is being reviewed by their specialists and would take time. I had sent more than 20 mails now and everytime I get a same reply for last 16 days. It is unfortunate to keep delaying the withdrawal and I'm really fed-up now. Kindly request IQoption to pay attention and release my withdrawal at the earliest.

I have complained bitterly about withheld withdrawal since 4th of june and still they have not paid. This is over 3months.

Such a wicked entity. My friend took loan from the bank to trade and he made good profit of I er $28,000.00. He has requested a withdrawal of $5000.00 to pay back his loan but to date this bloody wicked and scammer company had not paid.

What is painful is his wife is threatening to divorce him and he has lost his uncle so he badly needs money. The bank is after him day after day.

He has chatted support countless times and sent many emails to support but they won't even tell him when he will get his money.

Very very wicked, insensitive, cheats, and [censored]ing liers.

You tell the world you pay e wallet 1-3days but here you are over 3months without payment. And you have support operators who are so damn trained to lie to traders.

Everyone reading this should wait for their automated reply... "we are sorry" bla bla bla "we are not authorized to have your account on this platform"

Stay away from this broker

I am as pissed as an angry bull. This is so madning, painful, so unethical and scamming. How can a company tell people to trade with them with HARD earned money but when it comes to payment then they tell you according to their TC they can pay you whenever they feel like.

This is robbery.

My friend requested withdrawal on 4th of June. Till now he has not received his money. He is chatting support EVERY DAY but it's the same automated stories. The painful part is they won't even tell him when he should expect payment.

How do you treat a VIP customer like that? This is crazy. SCAMMERS!

If you are reading this, please NEVER deposit money with IQ Option. Check reviews from different websites. They don't pay.

SCAMMERS
