I posted the link to their regulators in your threat in Scam Alerts.

Email them and Chat. Let them know that you will begin contacting the regulators on Monday if you don't see progress on your withdrawal.

See what they say.
 
I have sent them a warning and contacted with NZ support on their website IFSCL - Intercontinental Financial Services Corporation Limited:

I'm very disappointed that an Ikon employee promised to look into this and then went silent. I've just sent a followup message to her. If there's no response soon, this one goes to the Open Cases folder.
 
Call them by telephone every day. Ask to talk to a Manager. Live Chat staff are notorious for lack of initiative and lack of authority to act.
 
very unprofessional, if they are seriuos company this shouldn't be here!
 
SCAM

Not receiving funds in a timely manner(or maybe at all second request) no other word for it SCAM
 
I made a mental note not to trade with IKON.

Unacceptable and suspicious behavour.

What a disgrace
