Requested a full withdrawal of USD 5,200. Only USD 2,000 was processed, with the remaining USD 3,200 held without explanation.

Respons Platform
Commission Structure Transparency Enhancement
Saxo Bank acknowledges the feedback from IFCCI regarding the complexity of our tiered commission structure. We are currently developing a unified cost comparison tool that will allow clients to view total trading costs (spread + commission + overnight fees) for any instrument across all account types in a single view. This tool is scheduled for release in Q3 2026. In the interim, we have published a simplified fee comparison guide on our pricing page.
Pending verification. IFCCI will review the simplified fee comparison guide and monitor the development of the unified cost comparison tool.
Respons Penyelidikan IFCCI
IFCCI has reviewed the complainant's documentation and notes that bonus lock mechanisms attached to deposits remain a significant consumer protection concern in the retail trading industry. IFCCI has formally requested FXTM's compliance team to clarify the opt-in mechanism for the bonus program and provide evidence that the complainant was presented with clear disclosure of lock conditions prior to the bonus being applied. A response deadline of 30 days has been set.
