Review about Citifx
Citifx is an online forex Broker. It offers Forex, indices, commodities, and shares. It provides two types of accounts to Customers. Citi Fx claims that it is authorized by the Financial Conduct Authority to provide payment services (FCA No. 488396), (Registered in England & Wales No.08922461). But when we checked this broker on the FCA register we got nothing. We tried with the given reference no. and this is what we got. On this reference no. another firm is registered not citifx.
Other than this we need to highlight that Citifx does not reveal its phone no. on the website. We checked this broker on Wikifx and it suggested that Citifx is a clone firms. Also Citifx has the lowest score with 1.05 out of 10. We read recent reviews of people about this Broker and this is what we got. These are Red flags. If you ignore them. It can be harmful for you. Therefore it's better to stay away from this broker and choose a legitimate- Authorised broker to avoid any kind of scam.
