• 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.

I am glad that I post appears (see) all users. On another site that I sent my take just me.
 
Plus500UK is indeed regulated by the FCA - and from all I have gathered, they ought to be reported.

It is at its core an ISRAELI company - something that should have warned any trader!!
They have 70.000 (read that again: SEVENTY THOUSAND) "affiliates" - and that explains most already. How do you think these affiliates get paid? Right on: From your money!! It comes from your deposit AND then from your "trading" which is never executed anyway (see my reports about B-Books). Apparently the system works to withdraw small profits and if the trader gets too successful, the troubles start and nobody can withdraw funds anymore.

To wit: Scalping is NOT illegal. Scalping is NOT market abuse.
If Plus500UK considers scalping illegal and/or being "market abuse" - they must declare it and determine clearly what they consider scalping. They cannot come along AFTER the fact and claim it is illegal or forbidden by their T&C and worse, refer to scalping being illegal by law. It is NOT. It might be prohibited by the broker who specifies it.

A) I suggest you write Plus500UK an email and ask for clarification about scalping in the fashion that they declare what THEY consider scalping to be. Ask for an example to make you understand. Scalping can be anything. Buy now and sell tomorrow can be considered scalping too when you're looking at a time frame of a year...... So this won't fly.
B) Ask specifically which law or regulation they are referring to that does prohibit scalping. As far as I know, there is no such law and no regulation either. This dog won't hunt either.

If you can't get that resolved, then you stand a good chance via the FSA complaint. Plus500 UK is a public company, too!! So they better have their act together.

Wait for their explanation about scalping and their reference to the law or regulation that prohibits scalping.....

Joa

Additionally: It seems that Plus500UK is systematically robbing clients, just check around a little on other web pages like forexfraud - you'll find hundreds and hundreds of complaints and some even publish the standard Plus500 answers where the company refers to "please contact our support team".......

I asked for cc and look at the question and the answer. In Greece these make jokes and laugh.

Thank you for contacting us.

The term “scalping” is classified as a form of Market Abuse, which is illegal, and is referred to in Clause 25.1.3 of our User Agreement. Briefly, this Clause states: “you will not enter into any transaction which falls within the definition of Market Abuse…”.

Any trader suspected in using such a trading method or any other foul use of our platform will be warned, and if continue, have his trading account immediately terminated and all, if any, positions will be made void.

Basically, scalping is opening a large amount of positions and closing them after short periods of time, systematically.

You could find out more about scalping here:
Scalping Definition | Investopedia
Scalping (trading) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ME
Thank you for the reply (after 10 days).
How is the time the brief you refer and how is the great amount referred;
Is 2"*5" *10"*1' *5' 10'*1 hours and why not you to protect us a check - Programmer I am.

And how big is the amount 5,000 10,000 20,000 40,000 or how much percentage of capital is and why it protected us with a check.
And finally informing me and put a prohibitive for these moves that can not be done.
Now updated to unlock the account I withdraw.

PLUS500 DONT laughs it's serious

Unfortunately, we cannot provide you further information about scalping than what we already provided.
You are supposed to be able to withdraw your funds.
If you encounter any issues, please contact us.

AND ME

You put a rule "scalping" and you can not tell me what is normally !!!
I think not. You say you can not do something but do not say what you can not do !!!!
Unbelievable !!!
The account is locked I can not make a withdrawal.
Please look at.
