Hedgestone Group reviews and complaints

Long time ago l did a payment of 250£ but never used your company service. How can I get it back 🔙 thanks. I've been trying to get in touch with you about this. Unfortunately I can't communicate with you before. I can remember the phone call 📞 from your agent. He was very helpful and insisted on getting my credit card details. Later on the money disappeared from my account. Help me to get my money back please ☺️

I had account with Hedgestone Group. Started with $ 250 and they promised me gold account with securitisation and I will not loose any of my hard earned money and they in turn will replenish with bonus amount. I had totally invested $65, 000 and they expert assisted trade is scam to lose money. My account currently stands at $59, 000. But I can't withdraw the money as I have to do 20 times trading volume with them. Is there any way I can recover my money. Also is there any way to complain to Police or authorities to ban this scam company from cheating others.

In early May I was contacted by Hedgestone Group following a web site enquiry during a period of desperation as I'd become unemployed and was struggling to pay bills.
At first I followed their request to transfer £200.00 from my Tesco credit card which they then directed me to place on commodities and the investment made £100.00. This was placed in my Hedgestone on line account and the following day an appointment was made to discuss further investments. the account manager "Nick" enquired about what my status was and told me that if I followed his advice then I can make a steady income.
This led to a further investment of £1200.00 to allow him to place me into a more upmarket better-informed Manager who would advise me how to make £10, 000 per month.
This line manager John then coached me into placing investments into iphone and oil persuading me to use my other credit cards to obtain funds assuring me that come the end of the month I would have sufficient funds to pay off the credit cards and have £10, 000 plus. He gave his assurance and guarantee that my money was safe and at all times during this first phase entering into this special investment programme would be protected from loss.
I trusted these guys and drew £22, 569 in total from credit cards and bank accounts to enter Johns special investment programme. the crooks then advised me where to invested it and by the time they had finished placing this funding into their proposed investments I was left with £800.00. I told them that they had ruined my life and under the verbal guarantee issued by John please refund all or some of the money.
They have cut all communication and terminated my log-in account. Yes, they are a Scam, yes, they are crooks. They are not to be trusted and should be hounded down and punished.
Plus, the credit card companies should also red flag these types of companies as i believe they are all the same. One big con.
Do anyone know any way of claiming the money off the credit card companies. Barclaycard have made efforts to recover £16, 830 but this is dependent upon the response from the bank that received the funds on behalf of Hedgestone Group. If that bank refuses to accept Barclaycards argument that Hedgestone acted unprofessionally then Barclaycard will not refund me.
Tesco Credit card, well they just don't give a dam. They told me in short, tough [censor], its your own fault and they we not help me in any way.

So, lessons to be learnt, Do not trust any Internet investment web site or scheme unless you can assure yourself they are a) British, b) governed by the FSA.
As regards UK credit card companies then only deal with ones that are willing to help you if you find yourself in difficulty. My experience of Tesco's is that they do not care about their customers.

I was told over the phone that I could make plenty of profits if I invested in the Hedgestone Group. They talked me in to giving all my bank details and
told me how to deal in stock markets under their supervision - which I did!
I have lost around £37000 and have no way of getting anything back. The
company have deceived me and left me penniless and I have been in touch with the bank, the FCSA, the FCA, Action Fraud, the police, and will be seeing a doctor re the stress and sleepless nights, and trying to get some free legal advice via Citizens Advice.
The stress it has caused me is indescribable, and I am a single female with no
support. I need help to refund my money.

The connection to this scam is provided by Facebook. The Advertisement on Facebook provides the links to the Web Site. The Hedgestone Group Binary Options Trading Platform has a very professional appearance. However, the operators (Account Advisors) run a very old scam (Con Game). It a very typical carrot and stick method; where the promise of a large payback can be gained by additional investment. The promise of more is promoted by a few modest gains. The operator gains your confidence by guiding your trades on their platform. You learn to follow the operators advice because they appear to have more information on the Forex trends than appear on the trading platform. In order to expand the scope of your trading, you are requested to deposit more cash into your trading account; this provides you with gold and then platinum status. your status provides more latitude for the trades. The coaching and building of trust with your trade advisor; and the cash investment can go on for weeks; until they have pushed you to the maximum risk you can afford.

When your final trading session comes; the advice you receive will appear like any previous session and start with a loss on an unusual pattern on the trading platform; which you will be advised to offset with a lager trade; then a large loss that needs to be offset in a panic by a larger trade that leads to a loss that needs to be offset in an even more panic larger trade. Because you have made each of the trades with only the advise of your trusted advisor; you are to blame for the loss. The result of this experience is the loss of a significant amount of cash and of an opportunity to make a large return on your investment quickly.

When you start an account on this trading site; you are warned of the extremely high risk of trading in binary options. The risk in these trades is supposed to be offset by the training and active advise you receive from your advisor. The advisor is there to build a trust relationship with you; so that you will overlook the risk and increase the amount of cash in your trading account. The trust you provide to you trade advisor is the essence of this scam. He will lead you to the abrupt loss of a signifact amount of cash ( in the tens of thosands).
