GBMy account is missing money this… My account is missing money this morning. They claimed having technical issues, I want to wait till tomorrow to see if they fix the problem. Company of this kind cannot be trusted.

TRWorst Brokerage Ever !!! I initiated ACAT out to transfer my positions to IKBR. They have rejected twice in 2 weeks. First rejection was about tax id mismatch between Firstrade and IBKR. I told that I am a nonresident international investor and do not have a US tax id. How could tax ids mismatch while I am not having one? That's ridiculous. The second rejection had no reason at all. I have filed a complaint with both SEC and FINRA.

GBMissing funds when withdrawal I have been using firstrade for 3 years and I have to close account due to compliance reason of my new job. I wired out all my fund and some of it is missing. My bank have no fees charged for remittance and firstrade denied any responsibility from their side. I'm now missing some of my funds. Never going back to Firstrade.

GBRequested documentation sent, STILL not enough! I send all the requested documentation, send the documentation again, and they won't let me withdraw my funds. I moved into a new home, provided the documentation as requested, and they deny my address change. I send more documentation, speak to the same customer rep twice, Mr. C, regarding the matter and was told the docs were not enough. SEC, here I come!

GBThis is the worst place you can park… This is the worst place you can park your money. The company is a corrupt scam. They take your money with pleasure, but when you ask to withdraw money....OMG. It took me two weeks and a huge favor from my local bank, with which I have a 20 year relationship to get my money out of this hell-hole. Do not use this company. You will regret it.
