    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.

I have been trading with Plus500 since 2018.
I have deposited over $200,000 and I have lost around $100,000 until I found a winning strategy this year.
Once I started profiting from Plus500 they restricted my account last week and cancel my last withdrawal.
Yesterday, they terminated my account claiming the following:

Dear Nikolay,

Re: Hedging Notification and Termination of Client Agreement

WITHOUT PREJUDICE – A/c: 10450000

We have undertaken a review of your file and trading records which indicate that your trading activity/strategy is in breach of Section 25.1.5. of the User Agreement.

I asked them to provide proof for their findings but they told me that the account is terminated and I will not be able to trade anymore with them.

I would like to know what are my options as I have deposited a lot with them and once I starting winning they cut me short and told me that I'm not welcome anymore.

I would like to know what are my options to file complaints, sue them or do a chargeback with my bank.

Thank you in advance
 
plus500 have few branch in various country, can you check the terms and condition where it state which jurisdiction your account is opened?

Actually I was searching on google and send a quote on your website about my case.
 
Code:
25.1.5. You will not use the Trading Platform in an abusive way by lag trading and/or
usage of server latency, price manipulation, time manipulation and similar
arbitrage practices. In such a case we reserve the rights to void/cancel part/all
your abusive trading transactions, close all and any of your Trading Accounts
and terminate the User Agreement under Section 22.5 or Section 22.8.

this is quote from the user agreement - it seems pretty generic

If you are referring to this company: https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/comm...ith-forex-and-crypto-regulated-brokers.63313/

This is not my company. But it is good for you to reach out to them and see what your options are. Many different recovery room scammers out there, so good to deal with a law firm with some experience.


If you are with either the UK or the Au divisions, you will have a quicker chance of getting money returned. I think you can file with UK FOS with what I have seen so far.

Which bank did you send your money to?

If you are actually registered with Cy entity, then I think using the lawyer listed above is a better route for you.
 
I have been using the CY entity so I guess I will go with the lawyer
