    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.

I am having an issue with a company
Dear Mr ....,

If you have any new information you would like to bring forward you can share it here.

Until the PayPal investigation is over, your account will remain blocked. All personnel has been directed not to respond and to continue handling your case in this ticket.

Should you wish to already escalate the matter, the Financial Ombudsman Service is the correct address as per our company policy.

My mail and their answer

Dear ..,

Thanks for reaching out to me with your mail.
I want to explain you the whole situation, because I think it is still not very clear and I am kindly asking you for an official explication and answer regarding these three points:

1. When I signed up on the platform I bought some Repsol and Eni positions but on Oil there was the option leverage 10 on my account (only for Oil) and I didn't realize it! Then I asked the Italian authority, Consob, and the Spanish one, Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, and both told me that this option is not allowed for Non-Professional clients. Then I would like to have a refund of all my lost money on those positions. Additionally I would refund you the winnings that have been made on the positions with leverage 10, thus, cancel all my positions with leverage 10 which, according to the authorities is not allowed, as I am a non professional.

2 There are 4 positions that I ve claimed:
A 13-03-2020 OIL open 31.79 closed 33.38 never reached, loss = 175.06$; B 18-03-2020 OIL open 21.82 closed 22.98 never reached, loss = 138.22$; C 20-03-2020 OIL open 23.53 closed 25,88 never reached, loss = 199.75$; D 22-03-2020 OIL open 23.26 closed 21.77, loss = 128$, in that case my account was not available at the regular time of open market at 23:00 and at that time I had a position in profit, not in loss, since the closing time of Friday 20-03-2020.

3 My account is still blocked! I can't even operate with the open positions and this is really unfair.



I would need an official explication and answer to each of the points mentioned above.
I also need the right case number of my complaint in order to send the claim to Cysec, as established internationally.


Please help me with my case as soon as possible, as my account is still blocked with open positions.

Thanks for your help,



Kind Regards,
