Unable to Withdraw

I applied for withdrawal on 7/31, but not only was I unable to withdraw, but the remaining amount was also eliminated through unauthorized transactions.

After depositing $100,000 on 6/21, I started trading. There was no problem with withdrawing profits until I applied for a withdrawal on 7/31. When I called the relevant personnel, they kept making excuses. It wasn't until 9/23 that the trading department of CWG sent a letter saying that I had engaged in "irregular trading" without any evidence, and then they unreasonably removed the amount of $34,579.43 from my MT4 account. I have been trading forex margin for a long time, and this is the first time I have encountered a platform that can take away your funds with just an "irregular trading" accusation. Because it takes 8 weeks for the UK to process my complaint letter, I want to remind CWG's customers here to be extra careful with this platform. Be extremely cautious. PS: The photos I provided are screenshots from my own backend. I have blurred my name and information to avoid retaliation from the platform and have deleted all my other information.

Unable to Withdraw

CWG Markets does not withdraw funds, maliciously finds reasons to deduct profits

I bought 5 lots of XAU/USD and made a profit of 5400 USD after the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) news at 20:30 Taiwan time on September 11, 2024. On the afternoon of September 12, the profit of 5400 USD in my CWG account on MT4 was maliciously cut off. Currently, I cannot place orders or withdraw funds from my CWG account. They said I violated the rules of rapid opening and closing trades. It's the first time I've heard of cutting off someone's profit like this. We traders can only lose money to the brokers, can't we make money? They said I violated the rules and regulations by scalping, but every trader has operated like this before. It's really despicable. Please give your opinions.

Unable to Withdraw

Scam! A terrible platform that doesn't explain or communicate.

CWG MARKETS is an utterly fraudulent platform! Extremely shameless, everyone must be warned not to be deceived! Both my friend and I have had the same tragic experiences, and I am determined to fully expose the despicable actions of this fraudulent broker, CWG MARKETS, to warn everyone to stay away from this trap! The incident happened in June 2024 when my account was suddenly blocked without any explanation or warning, completely shut down unilaterally by the platform. I repeatedly contacted the account manager and customer service, but their responses were either evasive or maliciously delayed, giving no reasonable explanation at all. This attitude is simply mocking the victims, making people angry and helpless! What's even more unacceptable is that after months of waiting, instead of improving, the situation worsened dramatically! By September 2024, CWG MARKETS arbitrarily deducted 30,649 from my account—a blatant act of fraud! After taking my money, they even had the audacity to ask me to withdraw the remaining funds and leave the platform! What kind of logic is this? They are completely treating customers like sheep to be slaughtered, with no moral bottom line! I hope everyone takes this as a warning—do not be deceived again! If you have encountered similar situations, please bravely come forward and expose them. We must not allow such fraudulent platforms to continue their reckless behavior and harm more people!
