Public-review checklist

1Separate broker brand reviews from reviews of the exact legal entity that would hold your account.
2Look for repeated patterns in recent public reviews: withdrawals, support response, slippage, platform outages and account closure.
3Treat review-site scores as directional, because dissatisfied users and marketing campaigns can both distort the sample.
4Check regulator registers, official warnings and account terms before relying on public sentiment.
5Compare complaints with your own use case: account size, funding method, product, platform and country.
