eToro Payment not received

I tried to Withdraw my money and it was "processed" on 5th of January, since then the support has not provided feedback with a transaction number I can track. Has not found where my money have gone to. All they do is post template messages that they'll look into it, but never actually do.

Case: [protected]

The support tried multiple times to close my case as resolved.

Desired outcome: Money refunded to my bank account + The Profits I've acumulated

Hi Daniel, did you receive your fund yet? They didn't trade with Mauritius and they closed all my positions on 5 Jan 21. 2 days later I tried to withdraw my money and gave them all my banking details. Everytime, they said my withdrawal is under reviewed. Yet, didn't receive my fund $ 22k. Should we launch a complaint at Crypus Cysec?

eToro Login to the platform not possible nor close of positions

No access to online platform for more than 8 hours nor to the offline platform after Portfolio of 8k declared as empty by etoro. Impossible to trade positions and as a consequence huge losses are at stake. Some positions were even just bought before the platform went down to benefit from the colossal dips and sell shortly which was impossible exclusively due to etoro's fault and responsibility.

eToro Suspicious Log in failure

Today was one of the day of those several time that i was unable to log in to etoro website to trade and check my portfolio, etc.. they claims that the site was under maintenance during a volatile trading day. This happend many times already in the past. After us market opened they shut their website again, i am unable to even send them a complaint as the website refuse to fo it. (See photo attached) I always been using their app from my mobile, so this time it's something new. They have an offline option to CLOSE my positions, but I don't see details about the current stock price, it seems that they want to make me to close them which I won't do as i know that i am in negative right now. I saw many their users complained in etoro's forum. Something very fishy here...

Desired outcome: To give me at least a proper explanation

eToro Platform offline & unusable when running

From 1500- to currently 18.53 pm the trading platform has been pretty much unusable. Can't open or close any positions but more importantly I haven't been able to adjust my stop loss position in a period of high volatility. This is still the case at this very moment. I have logged this wit customer service & written on Facebook messenger. I am extremely concerned that I am potentially losing over a £1000 through no problem I've caused. It is utterly unacceptable

Desired outcome: Confirmation of positions being unaffected or reimbursement

eToro unethical behaviour

Etoro intentionally set a unchangeable Stop loss to my GME shares which consequently made me lose approx. $1200 yesterday. I bought the shares when they were $265 per share and noticed SL was set to somewhere at $215. I tried to change it but the system didn't let me. I saw the share reaching reaching the limit and I couldn't do anything to change it. Felt so helpless and vulnerable.

This is an unacceptable behaviour for me.

I didn't take any photos coz I wasn't sure what I did wrong at that time. But after reading the posts of other Etoro users on WSB, I realised what actually happened. There are lots of evidences and posts regarding this issues from multiple Etoro users on WBS.

eToro Cryptocurrency exchange, transfer to walllet

I can not transfer my cryptocurrencies (woth 700$) from etoro exchange to etoro wallet, to further pass it to my ledger wallet.
Customer care can not help me for more than a month, marking my case as solved each time. For fifth time I have to explain my issue again, sending screenshots with the same error message. It takes them few days to reply with the same answer not solving anything.
Worst support ever. I believe they intentionally block my from transfering my funds elsewhere, which I don't think is legal.

Desired outcome: Transferring my coins to external wallet

eToro My account is limited and blocked can not trade or withdraw I never requested the account to be blocked please re instate

Hello,
I joined Etoro and everything seemed to go smoothly. I deposited 50.00 dollars at first and purchased some Crypto. After I have seen that everything went well I then deposited another 2000.00 dollars and purchased that amount in Crypto. A few days later I received an email stating that they want to validate my bank account so I sent them bank statements and a copy showing my deposit from the bank. Since then, they will not let me buy, deposit. Or take my money out. I have contacted them numerous and they claim they are very busy and will get back to me. I am going crazy because I feel they scammed out of my money and I can't get it back. I am not the only one. I am hoping that this will help get my funds and Etoro not be allowed to rip people off in the US. Please help me.

Thank you.

Desired outcome: Etoro

eToro balance money refund; 15 days no refund

Invested USD 200 into Etoro. After 3 days trading I lost USD 5. Need the balance money so did the withdrawal. They said I need to do complete verfication process pending One document. They said if I Close my Etoro Account than I don't needto continue verification. They said they will refund my balance USD 166.54 after deducting their fee of USD 25. Fine. After 12 days waited no refund. I contacted them and told me to prduce my Bank Statement showing no money received from Etoro. I did prduced it. Already another 4 days still no refund. Can you advise, can we do any legal action against Etoro. Can I get back my balance money. Thank you

I highly suggest to get to know the company first before trusting them fully. I went through the usual problems the clients face with eToro in https://www.complaintline.com/etoro. You'll be surprised on what you can find.

eToro missing money/refusal to withdraw

So i dumped 1700 CDN into this site. won a little in crypto currencies over time, all while paying ridiculous fees for trading. When it comes time i want out they refund me less than i originally put in. On top they lost some of the additional profits I made in a withdraw request they posted as processed that i simply never received. when I try to talk to their customer service all i get is an automated response followed by a second email days later stating my issue is resolved.
To this day i have not seen the so called processed money come my way and in addition they still hold 700 dollars of mine that they refuse to give back unless i give an alternative payment method through skrill, webmoney etc. sites that are not trusted and i simply can't make an account for because im Canadian.
Long story short don't waste your time or money on this company they're clearly out to take money, not provide a trading service in any way.

eToro unauthorised credit card debit

I had an amazing situation with Etoro, suddenly after I have finish my conversation with customer service (live chat) i got a SMS from my bank that Etoro debit US$1, 000 from my credit card. I called my bank and reported the situation about the debit in credit card, bank said the Etoro ordered the debit. I got a call from customer service in Cyprus - Ms. Ivena Balaseva who immediately took action to return my money. Nevertheless now I am waiting an explanation why they are returning my US$1, 000 with charge of about US$50?

eToro poor customer service

I have no idea what I have putted myself into by joining the broker of poor customer service. Since the beginning of last week I have been asking them to refund my account back and close. Since then they have been sending "we will get back to you nonsense". Any advise of what I should do to get my funds back. Its been a while I have been getting the same tune from and tell me if it is a difficult thing that I am asking from them. What type of a broker cant handle a small request like that. And their system is stupid, it is so simply to deposit money and it is a hustle to access it. If one is thinking of choosing a broker to trade on, my advise is to consider the liquidity of the broker and etoro is one of those poor customer service brokers.

eToro withdrawals

I've made 5 withdrawals starting in 25th of April, I waited till 10th of May, nothing received!
I told my account manager about that, then I've received email from etoro telling me that there was a technical issue and they solved it and I will receive my withdrawals in 5-8 business days.
After 9 business days I still not received any thing, so, I sent to customer service about this.
they told me that your withdrawals have been processed successfully in the 1st date that you made the withdrawal!
I don't understand how they told me in the 1st email that there was a technical issue delayed the transactions and in 2nd email they said that there wasn't a problem!
After this, I post on etoro asking about how to complain about this, and I blocked.

I placed 100 dollars to my etoro account and used it on bitcoins but then when I sold the shares again and sent the money back to my paypal, both websites said I had no money in my accounts. I emailed frequently etoro asking for my money back but they never replied. I'm starting to beleive that it is a fake company.

eToro complaint regarding closed trade

I have an issue with retail fx / etoro.com. One of my trades was closed due to system error in August 2011. I contacted etoro support and my problem was saved in etoro CRM system with Case ID 28, 106. I asked them to investigate what happened with my trade and to compensate me for the loss. So far my problem hasn't been resolved. The problem is in communication with etoro. I have an account manager, who is supposed to be my point of contact at etoro. However, my account manager does no reply to my emails, nor is it possible to reach him by phone. I sent him several reminders about my case and tried to call him many times. As I couldn't reach my account manager, later I contected eToro live support. They promised to investigate my case and they insisted my account manager would contact me back. I contacted eToro support regarding this 4 or 5 times and I always got the same answer. But no one contacted me back from etoro. I also sent a complaint to [protected]@retailfx.com several weeks ago, but it also stayed unreplied. Etoro platform is easy to use, but once you get into trouble, you are left alone.

eToro issue of withdraw inintial deposit of 50$

I have issue with retailfx.com by using their internet platform etoro.com. I have deposit for 50USD and after first trade my avalable balance have decreased to 48.37$ so I asked them to withdraw this amount back to my paypal account. After calling them and submit this request, I also submited a claim with Paypal regarding this situation. Etoro.com and Retailfx.com add so many fees and commissions that they didn't clearely indicate on their website so it makes impossible to use their service.regards

eToro Disconnection problems which consequently increase the size of losses

eToro claims be easy to use platform with no problems when trading Forex is concerned. But once in the connection problems are way too much to say that is true. In the end of trading with eToro, you won't be making profit as eToro gets your earnings capped and most times the buttons get disabled. This means that you can't cancel the trades you're on. Today i've lost 500$ to this problem and eToro admits the problems although refuses giving refunds. This problem is way more complex than what i say here. But in the end it stays the recommendation that you should not use eToro for trading unless you don't care for your profits.

Etoro account under review, without any prior notice, effectively freezing it, and would not provide a reason for its action and would not provide a timeframe for the review. The customer service is busy,. The complaint page on etoro website does not exist. I am pulling my money out as soon as the review is over.

Etoro closed my account with over $300 opened positions of XRP, BTC and Neo.

This is cheating me and I will need my account to be reopened by Etoro or to refund all my money including the negative opened positions since I am not the one who decided to close my account with them.

Answer For the user hana12

eToro is operating in a regulated environment according to MiFID directives; and as such we are following all the relevant rules and procedures that have been designed to protect our clients' interests.

The matter in question has been investigated thoroughly and it has been found that this is a clear fraud attempt by the trader and his IB. The IB and the specific trader, have partnered together to defraud our broker in several ways. The matter has been reported to the relevant authorities and we have banned the two individuals from eToro community of traders.

eToro will keep on providing our community of traders safe and secure trading experience. Our unique offering, values and professional service have made us the fastest growing trading network.

We thank you for your support
