• Please try to select the correct prefix when making a new thread in this folder.

    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

    More info coming soon.

Well I have submitted inquiry and some web links to NZ governments and I got below reply from them...

Dear Salim

Thank you for the information you have provided on Capital One Forex.

Please be aware that FMA does not provide confirmations of good standing or legitimacy about any entity. We note that this company is registered on the Financial Service Providers Register here Search Summary Company FSP .

The FSPR is intended to enable the public to identify registered FSPs, find their business address, view the financial services the FSP is registered to provide and whether they belong to a dispute resolution scheme. Being registered does not in itself involve any licensing or determination that a FSP is a fit and proper person. The prerequisites for registration can be found here: What are the prerequisites for registration? | Companies Office FSP

We consider complaints that we receive and if we decide that a complaint does not break any of the laws we enforce, we will close the complaint.

If a complaint does raise a possible issue under the laws we enforce:

we may decide the issue warrants further attention and undertake further enquiry which may result in a review of the firm's work, or actions against them.
We may still decide it does not warrant further action at this time. In this case, we will close the complaint but may use the information you provided in the future.
FMA does not normally comment on whether or not it is investigating a particular matter (nor the details of the information found or conclusions reached in any investigation), as it may prejudice any person who is, or is likely to be, a subject of investigation. There may also be matters of confidentiality to consider. Bearing this in mind, if we are able, we will let you know the outcome of our enquiries.

You mention that Capital One Forex are scamming clients. Can you provide any proof that this is the case?

Yours sincerely

David Pegg

The next step is to see if CapitalOneForex is part of the Financial Dispute Resolution Scheme. If so, traders need to open complaints there.
