Hi "along",
I realized most forex broker accept fundings via Liberty Reserves, AlertPay, MoneyBookers, and a host of other e-money purse.
However, it seems each and everyone of them have client's issues which borders on being untrustworthy.
And Liberty Reserves is no different as I randomly picked a site where they are being discussed (
Liberty Reserve ? largest payment processor and money transfer system. Liberty Reserve serves millions since 2002 - Home - Financial scam) and a lot of the complaints posts there are very similar to my complaints against AlertPay and MoneyBookers.
For the record, I have still not received one single reply to my (now) 5 e-mails to MoneyBookers Security Dept regarding my locked account.
All along, I thought MoneyBookers is pretty much a reliable e-purse company, but seems like I am mistaken.
After this last experience with moneyBookers, if possible, I think I will not trust my money with any more e-purse company.
P/S: In particular, read post No. 25 (at the above site link) by "spytrapper" on "Here is some good info" on the history of Liberty Reserves. Makes me even more suspicious of
ALL e-purse companies.
========================================
Back to brokers!...Well, as I have mentioned, Exness being a Russian company
doesn't sit well with me at all.
But if you are happy with them, that's ok...just don't leave too much money with them. Good luck with your trading with them!
I spent the whole of yesterday afternoon (was supposed to be resting) researching other brokers and finally centered on Pepperstone (see my post at Pepperstone discussion forum here at FPA).
I have registered for a Razor account, sent all my documents, and downloaded their platform.
Now all I need is for their confirmation that my documents satisfied the Aussie's Anti-Money Laundering requirements and I will fund my account either through a local bank (RHB through Global collect) or with my trusty credit cards.
I must say, Pepperstones meet most of my requirements of what i am looking for in a Forex broker.
I guess I can only say "Pepperstone meet my expectations of a Forex Broker" only after having trade live with them for a month or so. But I will certainly post in the "Brokers Reviews" section in FPA.
