Dear Sir

I have provided the proof of receipt of documents by Octafx in the form of Aramex Courier's tracking details and there is a gentleman called R Olliver who has received with time and date. Octafx confirmed to me over chat and mail that they have received the original documents and are investigating my case. How do you just believe what they say as a regulator you can contact Aramex and check with them if you doubt their courier delivery.

This is not acceptable to me and you need to investigate Octafx and make them pay back my deposit and profits immediately.

regards
Balaji

Dear Sir

It is over a month since the original ID and address proof attested documents have been received by your HO and confirmed by your support. How long does it take for investigation and release my own money?

Latest update - Alarming that Octafx claims they are regulated by SVGFSA but it is not true definitely scam broker
Loyal Bank, Payment Instructions
12:57 PM (17 hours ago)

to me
Dear Mr. Balaji Iyengar,

Octa FX is not regulated by the Financial Services Authority of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. We cannot confirm that Octa FX is regulated by any regulatory body.

Loyal Bank is not the representative of Financial Services Authority of St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVGFSA); it is regulated by the SVGFSA but does not represent this regulatory body.

The company Octa Markets Ltd (Octa Fx) was incorporated with Loyal Agency and Trust Corp, a subsidiary of Loyal Bank Limited. However, this Forex entity is neither regulated or supervised by Loyal Agency and Trust Corp, Loyal Bank Limited or the Financial Services Authority in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. We therefore do not have any control over this company’s operations.

We are however investigating in order to resolve the matter.

Best Regards,
Loyal Bank Limited
 
Wow. Unbelievable... someone else in other forum recommended this broker to me. Says they are very good etc glad I did not open any account with them yet - been too busy testing my current bunch of brokers.

Please see extract taken from Octafx site which confirms they are regulated by the authorities of St Vicent and Grenadines and confirmed to me over chat but their holding entity Loyal Bank says no as per above mail to me. If they were really regulated in any way why would the regulator SVGFSA send my complaint to Loyal Bank who is the holding firm of Octafx?

Octafx is big scam broker. They monitor each account, if they found any account that make profit, immediately these scammer install plugin in account that make delay 5-10 pips slippage in each opening and closing trades..

I had bad experience using a scalper, I was in profit 1000$ in 2 day, but immediately these guys put plugin, and all trades went loss about 5-10 pips slippage while open and close trades...

while asking the reason they say it is normal market slippage..Stay away from these robbers...

See how they cheat. the slippage is same pips while open trades...

See how they cheat. the slippage is same pips while open trades...

Today's update is as below - I was informed as below that investigation is over however I cannot trade further with them as per client agreement but can withdraw and just run away. It proves that they do not want any client to make any profit. Anyway my case is resolved and got my money back to my skrill account but this is warning to all clients of Octafx

Dear Sir,
We would like to notify you that the investigation has been completed and you can withdraw all of the funds from your account.
Your account will be locked afterwards as per customer agreement item 3.10:
The Company reserves the right, at its discretion, at any time to refuse to provide the Services to the Client and the Client agrees that the Company will have no obligation to inform the Client of the reasons.

Sincerely,
Barbara
 
You have to be kidding me. I mean, come on already. They verified your documents, and they are now allowing you access to your account to withdraw the funds, BUT clearly they don't want you as a customer. What kind of business operates this way? This is beyond retarded at best...
