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.

So far i have had very few issues So far i have had very few issues . I have not tried to withdraw funds but every question i have asked has been answered right away. I dont agree with all their policies but they have been very honest and forthcoming with documentation. Site seems easy to use

I really enjoy using Firstrade I really enjoy using Firstrade. Especially I didn’t encounter any app down time during trading in these days while I heard my friends did experience app down when using other broker’s platform to trade. What else I can say, I love Firstrade!

They are a small company run by a… They are a small company run by a family, and none of the main people live in the United States. They have business in China, but they have no license and evade financial supervision. They urge Chinese customers to remit money to the United States, but they can’t get it out. This is a very risky fraudulent company, Advise everyone not to be fooled.

Support is useless Support is useless. Service is fine as long as you have no problems. When you have a problem basically you get a response along the lines of Nothing we can do about it. Thank you for choosing Firstrade as your online broker. Well I'm moving my trades to another online broker.
