Investec is my long-time financial partner, and I appreciate their personalized approach to banking and wealth management. The dedicated relationship manager and user-friendly online platform are highlights. However, occasional transaction delays can be a downside. Overall, Investec stands out for its tailored service and transparent fee structures.

I'm not very pleased with Primexbtmarket. When my bank and I tried to get funds back into my bank account, they got lost with my money and never found. Globaltraderecovery. net “ was nice and expert enough to help me recover back my money back into my account at a little expense. I really appreciate that. I would not recommend primexbtmarkets platform!
