    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.

Problem Crunch time! My case with ICMarkets

I am having an issue with a company
At this point in time, it's apparent that ICMarkets has submitted all their evidences and statement and, in light of that, I will now submit my case statement:

So you're going to ignore the trade confirmations from our bridge and Integral?

Based on newspaper report, 'Fake margin calls': Forex traders furious after losses
Date: January 27, 2015” (as posted in above post#108
, there is precedent for ICMarkets to fake margin call and stop-out on their clients trading account.

For that, it is very conceivable that ICMarkets have also fake RahmanSL’s account no. 317165 with sudden stop-out without any margin call warning.

That article relates to stop outs during the SNB drama on the 15th January. I'm pretty confident all effected clients who that article was referencing were reimbursed.

RahmanSL find it extremely suspicious that ICMarkets did not nor would they submit him the most important/vital/critical comparison tick charts of ICM and other ASIC regulated brokers to prove beyond any doubt that the USD/CAD has spread widening on the material date & time and not confined to ICMarkets back-office server.

IC Markets never provided this to you in the past and you never requested it. Why should we provide it on this occasion without notice?

We responded to your query on this occasion in the same manner that was seen as appropriate in the past. Isn't this fair and logical?

As already mentioned, ICMarkets was established in 2007 and have or should have the knowledge and resources to very easily submit RahmanSL all those irrefutable proof at the start of his issues/disputes with ICM, but yet ICM Support and management did not do that citing (by their Head of Dealing Desk Angus Walker) inexperienced Support staff, including ICM Support Team Leader, handling RahmanSL case issues/disputes.

These two very senior top executives of ICMarkets have or should have vast and extensive experiences in the forex brokerage business and, as such, are or should be very well equipped to deal with cases such as or similar to RahmanSL case issues/disputes with ICM which, to begin with, was pretty straight forward.

Again, we responded in the same manner as we had done in the past. You've moved the goal post by suggesting that IC Markets should have provided you with information that you never requested in the first past or for this particular matter.

In light of apparent and deliberate withholding of very important/key/vital information & proof from their client (RahmanSL) when it was within the means and opportunity of ICM to do so at the opportunity date & time, ICMarkets has committed an offense and is guilty as their client (RahmanSL) claim that some manipulation did take place at ICMarkets back-office server by one or more of ICM staff to manipulate and to cause account 317165 instantaneous stop-out without any margin-call warning.

Withholding what information?

You never requested spread comparison data. You didn't even know the myfxbook spread page existed until last month when I directed you to it as a point of reference. IC Markets provided you with our tick data.

In failure for and negligence in dispensing quickly, efficiently, and conclusively with their client's (RahmanSL) issues/disputes, ICMarkets has subjected RahmanSL to a great deal of frustration, irritation, and valuable time (which could have been put to much better use & productivity in carrying out business work) in trying to prove his conviction that ICMarkets has indeed manipulated his trading account no. 317165 to cause that strange and unusual instantaneous stop-out without any margin-call warning.

To date you have not provided any evidence to support your claim. Instead of seeking independent advice from a professional you spent your spare time writing negative posts about IC Markets. You chose to waste your valuable time on this.

In the course of trying to prove his suspicion on that strange and unusual instantaneous stop-out without any margin-call warning, RahmanSL was literally accused of "Lying" by a senior executive of ICMarkets…i.e. Head of Dealing Desk Angus Walker…..who also publicly "rubbish" RahmanSL issues/disputes with ICMarkets at the FPA forum.

subject: RE: Trading Account#317165 sudden death


Hi Rahman,

I responded to your FPA posts…

You are providing misleading information to FPA users in your posts and we want it to stop. You are literally lying and skewing the facts by only writing vague information so as to not be proven wrong by other traders. I can’t write specifics about your account, I can only elaborate on information which you have already provided. Why don’t you post the facts so FPA users can make up their own mind?

Kind regards,

Angus Walker | Head of Trading Desk | IC Markets


For those remarks & accusations, ICMarkets senior management is guilty of unprofessional misconduct and practices by any industry standard, and also to publicly ridicule their (ICM) client (RahmanSL) in a public forum (FPA - Scam Alert - Crunch Time! My case with ICMarkets).

===================================

Rahman, you have publicly lied about IC Markets. You have posted misleading information about IC Markets on FPA and other forums. I'm on here to present the facts in front of the FPA community rather than deal with your matter civilly in a New South Wales court.

To date you haven't provided any facts. Not one piece of evidence after 11 pages of posts to support your claims. Isn't this weird?

Any time I present some facts or an objective opinion you change the topic. How about we deal with your case rather than continuing on with these grandiose claims that only sidetrack us from the real issue.
 
So you're going to ignore the trade confirmations from our bridge and Integral?

That's just a part/sample of my closing statement which makes up my report. If relevant Australian authorities don't see any merit in my report, then there will be no follow-through investigation.

Rahman, digging through old Zendesk tickets.... It looks like IC Markets support team leader Sung Choi actually provided you with a myfxbook broker spreads link on February 3rd 2015. This means you were made aware of the broker spread comparison data from a previous stop out before March 5th 2015.

Given you knew about the link why didn't you check the spreads for yourself? Why didn't you ask our support staff to check this?

That was another unsolved case issue/dispute which I will go back to after this case issues/disputes.
Quite frankly, I don't remember that email, but since you kindly reminded me, then this further prove that ICM Team Leader Sung Choi did know where I can find comparison tick charts but have, for obvious reason, suffered a bad case of amnesia or, as you have pointed out, inexperienced(?) which at that material date and time would have put my case issues/disputes with ICMarkets to rest.

Well, as soon as I have polished up my rather long report (and English is not my mother tongue), I will submit them to some Australian authorities and let them decide what to do with my case issues/disputes with ICMarkets.

Rahman, Sung was not dealing with your case so how could he possibly provide this data? Sung was involved in your case approximately one month after it began. This is too late for him to get the myfxbook data. You on the other hand could have seen the data for yourself from the very beginning.

Are you posting the report on here?

This 'scam' case needs to be resolved one way or another. If you're not sharing your evidence/report then how can it possibly be solved?
 
Any facts in my report? Yes, I believe so with relevant attachments and references.

I can only post the whole report here once I get some respond from any of the Australian Authorities because it's still not an officially submitted report/document and, as such, cannot be made public before action(s) or inaction(s) have been taken.

Since ICMarkets & myself still very much hold onto our original convictions, so, for now, this thread is stale mate and in limbo until such time that I received any follow-up news on my report submission.
