$10k withdrawal blocked

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
Id. 57700818 Well the story is that i had 12k. I requested a withdrawal of 10k and leave the other 2k in my account. Today they told me that the reset my balance to 0 because i use bot especially mt5 bot. The problem is that i dont trade to forex. I tried it for a while 2 months ago and it didn't go well. I have proofs that i dont trade in forex (in their platform). The last forex trading was in 29th june. And now they say that im using a bot. But i never used a bot.
Lets talk with dates. In 29th june i stopped trading in forex. In 4th July i did a successfuly withdrawal (3000 dollars). Then why they didn't say about the bot? And now with 10000 why they say this excuse? I sent them several messages and screenshots to explain them and begging them to check again because they did a wrong. Before they did also a wrong twice by telling me that i have 2 accounts and i said them to check this again and they were like you have right we checked this etc etc.
They stole my money. I have to pay bills and they delete my balance so easily. Its stupid to use bots because first its software and softwares are detectable and second i dont believe in bot because are made to make you lose. I have proofs that i dont use a bot. If anyone checks my account he will see that im a normal trader with bad and good days. I am sending you a message because I want to redeem all opportunities before contacting my lawyer. Their support is very fast but they dont want to check this again and again. Thank you very much

They are not giving withdrawal using excuse

Service use: Live Length of use: 6-12 Months
I am from Bangladesh, I was using pocket option like from 6 months ago. In my first 1-3 months i lost some money win some little and did a little withdrawal and they did that withdrawal. After some time I found a strategy and it was working so i made a big deposit and made it like 6k then also loss some and stands on the 4k and decided to withdraw as soon as I withdraw they are saying I used bot and cancel my withdrawal. I was shocked if i use a bot why would I stop on 6k rather than I would go for more and if i use a bot why I would loss 6k-4k . Also if I submit my trades there is so many losses.

So basically they do not give you big amount more than 100$ they will eat your money by giving excuses.

Pocket option - more than 10000$ wiped out.

Service use: Live Length of use: 3-6 Months
On December 2022 I learn and read about Binary trading, I was already trading on Forex but that style of trading is not suitable for me. I need quick result of every trade thats why I learn and develop my trading strategy and Trading system too fast and become profitable in few months.
Pocket option is the second website where I ragistered and Complete my profile verification. But when I become profitable that Time I was in lose about 3000$ So I recovere all of my amount and Plus 7111$ more profit. I try to withdraw my money. They declined it by Selfie verification. I complete my verification and Again Try to withdraw money. Then Again they decline it that the adress verification is required. I provide my Orignal document they Accept it. then 3rd time I Requested for Withdrawal again they decline it by Wrong Adress. and Ask for Credit card verification. I provide Card pictures. After sending My Card pictures approximately 3 hours later I received 2 messages one Verifications is competed. I was happy that (Jhan chut gia) and in the second message is Most stupid reason that I'm using bot and my Account is wiped up by The Most Smart Scammers of world.
This is the real story that what I face this month. I delete my account and Share here this honest Review. Some people is in the favor of Pocket option they are because they are only Affiliate with him. to drive them more People for wiping out their accounts and money.
When you lose they will never ask you for any type of verification.
And Last point. Goto Pocket option home page goto review section in the bottom and check out the profiles of persons who give them reviews they are already in loses or offline accounts. You will see only newbie accounts. They are clear fraudster. and support team is also very unmannered peoples.
I will ask them On the day of judgment. because they waste my previous time. and hard earned money.

Stay Safe.

POCKET OPTIONS looted my profits and blocked my account

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
My Account Number - 73235327

I deposited $110 at first and lost it all. I then deposited $200 more and, by luck or hard work, I reached $1358, which I thankfully recorded. I usually record my trades to learn from my mistakes. I did a few more trades and reached $1409. I requested a withdrawal on 21/03/2024, which took 8 hours to process and showed a status of 'COMPLETED,' but the funds were nowhere to be seen. I waited for another 6 days, sent numerous messages to support, but received no reply. Finally, they replied, stating that the funds were being processed by the financial operator, and I needed to wait up to 5 business days.

On the 7th day, they refunded my entire balance back into my trading account, stating that the transaction could not be processed and that there was an investigation going on with the financial provider. I did a few more trades and reached $1414. I requested another withdrawal, which was in process for 8-9 hours. After that, they blocked my account, claiming that I used an illegal trading method. It felt like being scammed by a big-time scammer. After that, they stopped replying to me.

Please, avoid this broker at all costs. They are not to be trusted with your hard-earned money.
I've created a video of exposing their scam from start to end, please avoid this broker at all cost.

PocketOption is the number 1 worst broker in the world

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
I made a PO account for the first time. Deposited $100, I lose. I try again. I deposited $500 and made $1200 balance. I tried to withdraw. They asked me for the verification and I did it all whatever they ask. My verification was completed and yhen I tried to withdraw again... They blocked my account without a real reason. As I see, they mentioned 4.1.1 and 2.9 which is using bot. Then I understood that once we make profit, they make excuses that we use bot. According to them, only a bot can make profit and manual trading will always lose. By the way, 90% of my trades were 5 minute and 10% were 1 minute/  I lost on 1 minute. Stay away from this bad site. They do whatever they like in order not to pay you.

Pocket Option verified my account and they still won't send withdrawal

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
Don’t trust this broker they took my money if you lost your money and get back it to your deposited price and withdraw it they will not give you your money. Asking verifications and after submitting it and get verified. But they will not give you your money. They telling so many reasons to cancel withdrawal. After all that they will block your account. Don’t invest this broker. If you invest this brocker you will lost your everything. This is my personal experience. They blocked my 4890$ deposited account With 4500$

The prices are completely different from the real market

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
The prices in their "OTC" markets are totally different from the real markets. They even go in completely the opposite direction of the real market at times. It does not make any sense, they are totally disconnected from the underlying reality of the market.
