XM Review

Whatever the review they are giving but iam using xm.com since 2019 and they are great no deposit problem no withdrawal problem i give them 100 out of 100.Overall great service .

I tried to register and started trading with xm

Just a few days of trading and getting profit from my trading, suddenly I got an email about the change in leverage from xm.
All trading profits that I made during the trade are deleted.
All for no apparent reason from XM.

Beware of trading with XM
They don't want you to win
Scam Broker

I trade with XM, and make profit trading,
But XM suddenly sent an email changing my account leverage.
Then they wiped out all the profits that I had so far.
When I contacted their support, their answers were convoluted.
They also didn't give a reason when I asked why they wiped out all the profit I got.

And they emailed me to be required to withdraw all my funds by them,
but when I withdrew my funds, they didn't pay it in full, they deducted about $ 600 from all my withdrawals.

Several days I kept asking about my problem to their support, but the answer I got was not clear.
Until the time I received an email that they had no more correspondence with the problem I was experiencing.

Disappointed broker and scam broker
Be careful with this broker, when you lose they are okay
But when you profit they won't pay it.

Xm closed my opened trade at a loss, the price eventually reversed and i lost, I chat with them and i was told to send an email, i latter sent the email and i received the reply below
"Regarding your concern, please note you were informed by our relevant department about the status of your account. The decision is final. 
"

Xm is biggest Scammer group he closed my open positions 153 $ and also removed 1 week history ofmy mt4 account.
I have every proof screen shots and daliy confirmatin reports of my account.so everyone be alert and careful of this XM Scammer Broker.

I had problem of withdrawal.
Support responded within 1 hour.
Though yet to get my money.
Other withdrawals were executed within 4 days.No issues

I have been using Xm since 2017, and everything was fine, I was really losing more 'money than I was making and until August 12, 2020 when I spotted a really good opportunity that I jumped on on NZDUSD and make a really good profit of over $ 3000 which allowed me to cover all the losses I had experienced before. And this is what raged at the broker, so they changed my leverage by forbidding to use leverage above 1: 100 while he offered 1: 888, then all my bonuses were taken from me , then he offered a possibility to withdraw the profit by bank, when I tried they told me that they cannot authorize my withdrawal by bank. So many complications followed and I asked myself why all this today? Why wait until the day that I become profitable to change their policy when I have already been using the same strategy for 3 years? I believe that with xm everything is fine if the client loses money but as soon as you become profitable expect unpleasant surprises. I don't recommend this broker if you want to become a professional trader.

Trading experience - Platform response - 5/5
I joined and got validated on XM in early February 2020. I began trading with a fairly decent account that has since grown close to 190% largely due to the ability to utilize my strategy on their ultra low standard accounts where the spreads are low - based on the industry average - above average spreads favourable for most assets.

Customer care - 5/5
The customer care service is just a button away in the members area! Available in under a minute from clicking the button. They are quick to guide and assist on whatever you ask them.

Access to funds - Settlement/Withdraw - 5/5 - Industry best
Withdraws or settlements typically take under 2 hours via the MOBILE MONEY(AIRTEL OPTION) which is quite fair. I also notice that the currency conversion rate is taken at market.

Education - 5/5 - Industry best
The research and metrics shared via their research and education is surely quite the best. The only broker that can compare to them is IG but still XM beats them at indepth analysis. Believe me when I say so as I am in research and analysis in my dayjob.

Final Comment:
I respect other people's reviews but those trying to tarnish XM. Please step up to the challenge or opt for another broker but don't bring it down especially when their services are surely unprecedented! I overall give them a 5/5 - 100%

I made a review ealier saying xm is a scam and i stand by that, after xm telling me to send my bank statements i did... they said to me i selected nedbank instead of standard bank... i cooled down last month i started calling the banks and they said they would have reversed it the very first week... and xm is telling me to wait for it to return and its gonna be 4 mounths next month its time i accepted that im not getting it back and be done with xm

Dec 2, 2020 - 1 Star I always lost my equity because but i dint mind i was learn finally i was starting to profit now that i withdrew my deposit they said i can't withdraw with my card anymore i must choose another method i chosen bank wire and they sent me and email saying it was successful now and haven't recieved anything yet since last week Wednesday when i send them an email they dont respond back at me

Reply by Chris Zacharia submitted Dec 10, 2020 Dear Server1,

Please note that I have investigated the issue raised in your review and I can confirm that your withdrawal request under question was correctly and successfully executed by our Back Office department as per our internal withdrawal procedures.

Notwithstanding the above, you have contacted our Company claiming that you did not receive the relevant funds as such, our personnel correctly informed you that in order for us to be in position to escalate the case we need some supporting documents. More specifically, you were requested to provide us with a Bank Statement starting from the date of the withdrawal (i.e., 25/11/2020) as proof of non receipt of the funds so as to investigate further with the Bank.

Due to the fact that we were not provided with the requested document, the relevant department of our Company was not in position to escalate the case and as such, I would like to inform you that once we are provided with the requested proof, all the necessary actions will be taken.

Thank you,

I withdraw about 48 hour after approved from XM,
Now I don’t get my money.
I contact support at multiple time, but no good answer.

Now, my money disappeared

Disappointed broker and very bad broker in the present.

Feb 16, 2021 - 1 Star I request for withdrawal my fund, this is delay more than 24 hour, I don’t get to my money.
Before I believe in this broker.
Now, this broker is scam broker for me

I was with XM few years. They were very good as far as I was making losses in my trading account.
As soon as I started to make consistent profits, they suspended my account and feezed all funds.

The explanations given were not consistent.
Once they said, my trading was overloading the servers.
When asked for further details, they said it was a technical error.
When the suspension happened again, they said, my trading style was violating their agreements.

Perhaps, their expectation is the trader to loose money always.

My account suddenly got terminated. They said on the email that

"In that regard, our Anti-fraud Department has brought to our attention that your Account is connected to an account that had been previously terminated because of the violations of the Client Agreement."

This is my first account and how can it be connected with another account. Called account manager, he said that he cant do anything and the decision is made by the main office. He can't give me any reasons and immediately hangs up. I've lost all of my investment.

Dear Chris Zacharia, your responses serve to prove the point that XM.com just hides behinds its many licenses it holds with different bodies. However XM.com is the website that XM.com uses to entice people. Lets call a spade a spade. You like to respond in your smart language. The bottom line is the letters are addressed to XM.com. Safecharge is the mechanism you use to move funds out & in. Let us not kid around & settle my case. 

Jan 29, 2021 - 1 Star XM.com is the worst broker in the worLd.. They have the worst service.. Provide a High Leverage & out to steal your money.. I have an ongoing dispute with them which remains unresolved.. They refuse to give me a case number to refer my case to the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) (licence number 120/10), International Financial Services Commission (IFSC) (license number 000261/106), Financial Conduct Authority (FRN: 705428), Australian Securities and Investment Commission (AFSL 443670). I still await a resolution to my dispute.. They are the worst broker ever.. Do not support or deposit funds with these thieves.. They offer an addictive & destructive product.. Stay Away from them!!! I want my $35,000!!

Apr 23, 2020 - 1 Star Good Day,

Hope this email finds you well.

The Cyprus Securities & Exchange commission has asked me to provide it with a CIF reference number to lodge a case.

To date i have not received a CIF Ref Number in correspondence?

Please provide me with a CIF Ref Number?

At no point did xm.com refer me the the Cyprus Securities & Exchange commission.

Attached is my complaints to be lodged to the Cyprus Securities & Exchange commission.
.
Kind Regards

I am a disable from Ukraine. I decided to try forex. Disables in Ukraine have a too small pension. I've send $20 to xm account. I losed my money. After that, I decided to delete my account. But there is a problem. There is $0.91 on my account. I can not to trade using these money, because it's a small amount and I can not to withdraw them. Support sad that I have to send money to xm account again. I told them, that I have not money anymore. So, I write them for a week. Nobody can help. They just say: Ok! Today we will decide your problem. But it is all FALSE!!!
What do I have to do? - I don't know.

Also, according to the Privacy Policy of xm.com, I want they to delete all my documents and all informotion about me.

Give me some advice, please, where do I have to write to solve this problem, if you know.

Have a nice day!

I like this platform! Super legit! The customer care is accessible! I recommend this platform for you!

I have started trading with real money on December 7,2020 and at the end of the month Thursday 31 my account was up approximately 53 % .

Everything is working more than expected. And if there is more than five starts for evaluation I will give them all the starts in the sky. What a wonderful company !!!

They are very honest and sincere and think of clients more than themselves. Any question I ask I get a prompt reply from professional works that really appreciate to help you make money as they earn money too. It is a Win Win game.

In short, there is no company as good as xm.com it is really the business itself.

Hi,

I ve been trading for 2 months use XM broker, yesterday as i want to withdraw quite large above 3000usd suddenly they ask for scan of my bank account with my name on it, i understand that this is for security.

So I sent them as they request, but then they reply I need to sent from my registered email. Now the registered email using gmail that has dots, they receive my email without dots( so they assume its not registered how come since they sent all the daily confirmation to my same email address)

So i ve already change the email with dots and until now there is no reply from them

I just got info that XM has been awarded with best global forex 2020, and I hope they act like one

I recommend xm becoz i personally a swing trader with a tight MM, swing trading works well on xm.

Hi FPA family,

I am utterly disappointed with XM, yesterday they recorded a lower price compared to other platforms and brokers. Due to this irregular behavior and price move, my positions were stopped out and thus disrupting my day, throwing me off balance completely.

Can anyone let me know if such behavior is possible? Customer support always gives you generic response, the feeling of helplessness when you discover your broker does not have your best interest at heart is devastating.

I am now convinced that perhaps I should look for another broker.

I am new to FPA, but I have been looking at the site for a long time, I saw the alerts about xm, but as I had support in Portuguese I decided to take a chance, I figured that the problems described might not occur to me!
it was a big mistake on my part, i made some deposits, and i went through unsuccessful operations i lost a good amount of money at xm, so far so good, they are not to blame for that. When I finally make a new deposit and I have a "good" day, I deposited 100 and made 105.71 of total profit 105.71, I thought I will make a withdrawal and continue using the broker, that's when my headache started, I asked for the withdrawal via neteller, in which I had already deposited an amount, my withdrawal was denied and I was asked to withdraw via an astropaycard which had been the method of my last deposit, I went to the chat to complain, because I know about the money laundering law, I should be able to withdraw a part by neteller, after much discussion I was informed that I should withdraw by astropaycard, I accepted and withdrew, but in just 2 minutes after leaving the chat the following email arrived:

I know that there are people who abuse the bonus programs, but it is not my case, I would be very happy if XM pointed out a concrete proof to the FPA, because accusing customers of having broken the rules at random is very easy for them to steal customers ! and all this happens only when you ask for a withdrawal! while I was losing money with them everything was great, everything was beautiful, it was me having a small profit that started this antics!
it is not a large amount, but note that in the current situation it is complicated to keep losing small amounts! the worst is the feeling of helplessness that we have when dealing with these scams!

Since 3 weeks i can't withtdraw mi profit of welcome bonus. The suport
system is too bad. They dont offer solutions. SCAM?

The big disadvantage of this broker is that if your account amount exceeds $ 20,000, your account will automatically decrease, and this is very BAD .

->->->->->->->"Is hedging allowed on XM MT4/MT5 trading accounts?
Answer:

Yes, you can hedge your positions as much as you can with XM.

The margin requirements will be balanced out and there is no required margin for hedging with XM.

However, for hedging CFD instruments, margin is only required once.

*Even when hedging positions, the required margin can be increased due to market conditions.
Please note that XM does not allow ‘Arbitrage’ trading on their trading platforms.

There are certain rules to protect other traders and the broker’s benefit. For more information, please refer to XM’s terms and conditions or contact the support team. <-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-

Chris Zacharia want to kiding me and all his customer. They said, that hedging is allowed but they close accounts, which use hedging. That makes sense!

Hello,
I don't use "arbitrage". I only use hedging with 2 accounts. I've been your customer since 3 years and you wanna close all my accounts yet?You will lose a lot of customer because I did free marketing for you. I told all my own customer about you. In these 3 years I never did a mistake and now you will close all my accounts?Then I will switch to another broker and tell all my customer what you do. I like XM and I show my loyality to XM. But you close negative trades and I lose one whole day. How you will make it good?
Best regards
Anthony ******

That's now 1 year ago. I write them a new message some days ago to clarify:

Hello,
it‘s now 1 year ago you close all my accounts because you say I did arbitrage. I said to you, I don‘t did arbitrage. i hedged my trades but you don‘t give me a chance to show that. You didn‘t show me any proof. Now I work with a lot of big other brokers. I‘m ready to apologize your mistake because I want to be a customer of xm. Because I know xm has good conditions. Is it possible to clarify? For me it‘s not important. I can be a customer from the other brokers too. That’s your decision. I am not dependent on you. So you can choose now, if you maybe has a very loyal customer, who recommends you to other people or you haven‘t.
Best regards

I think they don't read the message, they are all to lazy to clarify that. XM has good conditions but the support isn't existing.

Dec 26, 2019 - 2 Stars Hello,

XM has good conditions for their customers.
I prefer the deposit bonus and the margin stop out level. The spreads are very stable.

But the support ist terrible. I have been your customer for more then 3 years.
I never did a mistake.

For more then 2 weeks ago I opened two low spread accounts. With one account I bought EURUSD and with the other I sold EURUSD. At the midnight I got a message that I'm a scammer because I used "Arbitrage". That's not f***ing arbitrage. That's Hedging. So they close all my accounts. After that I wrote a message to my account manager and to the support. I replied the message of them. But they only wrote back "we can't do anything".

What the hell. I was a very loyal customer, I told other people that xm is the best broker. Some of my customers are customers of xm because I told them about them.
You can make one mistake and they give a f on you. That's not a support. They should get 0 stars for that. But I see the positive sides too.

I'm very angry about that. They destroyed my ranking on MQL5 and had stolen more than 4 hours of my life. But thanks to god. I got a meesage from another broker which want to work with me. I would have deposit a very big amount in xm. But now it's to late. I don't want to work with a broker who gives a f on their customer. Bye.

In order for us to properly investigate this and be able to provide you a comprehensive reply we would need the account number of one of the accounts which you used.

Thanks,

Reply by Chris Zacharia submitted Oct 30, 2020 Dear At0nu5,



Following investigation of your trading accounts and trading activity, I can confirm that our business relationship was correctly terminated due to the fact that you were placing opposite orders within your trading accounts. Kindly note that the latter is also confirmed by you in your review above.



This cannot be deemed as an acceptable strategy as you create an environment which does not follow the fair rules of trading and makes the strategy in a way risk free and therefore not permitted. It should be also noted that the latter constitutes a violation of our terms and conditions of business. In addition to the previously-mentioned, I can confirm that the remaining balance in your trading account has been withdrawn.



In view of the above, I regret to inform you that unfortunately, due to the above violation, we are not in position to accept you as a client again.



Thank you

Using the free 30 USD provided by XM, I made some nice profits on my XM account.

However, when I wanted to withdraw some of my profits, they actually deducted all the money balance in my account. Their "reason": I violated their "terms and conditions" and so they have the right to deduct ALL THE MONEY in my account!

I opened an account after reading the good reviews here and started to trade with them since 2019 . Sometimes the spreads are high compared to other brokers but that is managable if you are not scalping .Last month i cameback to forexpeacearmy to read latest reviews and to my suprise lot of them were negative . I read how clients had trouble withdrawing their funds . So i got worried a lot and after a long thought decide to test them. I made a withdraw yesterday through online bank transfer and it took less than 24 hours to reach my bank account .I am very satisfied by their service and would highly recommend them .Most of the negative reviews related to the broker is based on the no deposit bonus which is a non issue for me . I have given them 4 stars because of sometimes the spread goes up for no reason and there is no facility for mam options
