This company is a total fraud!! This company is a total fraud!!! They sat on my $50k withdrawl request for almost two weeks now. They will make all kinds of ridiculous excuses like they needed to verify my identity so I had to send them my driver’s license, bank statements and eventually did a three way call with my bank to verify what???? It’s all a bunch of stall tactics. I guess at this point I’ll need to ask them to reverse the ACH, contact the SEC and local police in Flushing, NY because they essentially have stolen $50k from me and won’t return the funds despite repeated requests

Missing 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.

Have used the broker more than a year… Have used the broker more than a year as a international costumer, almost never had issues. Very professional and good broker. Did withdraw money 2 times without any issues, did receive my Money within 2 days. That’s better than my local broker. Highly recommend. Don’t understand all these negative reviews!

This is not a real trading firm... If I could give zero stars I would. Firstrade locked my account and I have been trying for weeks to transfer to another brokerage due to their poor service. The transfer keeps being rejected and they can't tell me why. I have spent numerous hours on the phone to no avail. Eventually I got my other brokerage firm to help me out with the transfer. AVOID FIRSTRADE LIKE THE PLAGUE. THESE PEOPLE ARE UNPROFESSIONAL AND CLUELESS. You'd swear that it is a Mom and Pop business that they're running.

Worst 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.
