I noticed that it takes long time to get the broker-reviews published here.
Guess admin have a lot to do, and i can respect and understand that.
But when people search the net for broker-reviews and see "Not reviewed yet" on the broker they serarch info about they might think it's "Okay"..
This is unfortunate if all the review pending for approval could have prevented another "sucker" get in the jaws of a scammer..
There are two parts to this...
First, every person who submits a review is told that moderation can take up to 5 business days. A few "special cases" get forwarded to me and take a little longer. Over 80% are usually done with the screening process within 2 or 3 business days.
Anyone who submits a review which is not approved within 5 business days can read this...

If the text doesn't explain it, there's a contact form for the reviewer to fill out.
There's a reason for this delay. Every review is checked automatically and then passed over to the review moderation team for manual checks. IBs try to leave glowing reviews with their affiliate links. Some even try to turn their affiliate link into a separate review page. Recovery room scammers try to tell fake stories about where to get help with scams. Spammers try to advertise all sorts of products unrelated to forex. People try to post "Please leave reviews" as a review. If the big
Add Your Review button displayed 3 times on each review page fails to get reviews, a "please leave a review" message in the reviews list won't help.
My favorite fake reviews are from companies trying to submit fake "client" reviews for themselves. Those do get approved, but with some changes. The rating is set to zero stars and the review is modified to make the bad behavior of the company visible to readers.
Second, many companies do have few or even no reviews. Reviews are supposed to be left by clients. I've got no way to force anyone to submit reviews. I do not have the time go out and open live accounts at 300 brokers just to be able to leave one review for each of them.
If you see people complaining about a scammy broker which has no reviews on its FPA review page, then please encourage those people to come and submit a review.
