GBSo far i have had very few issues So far i have had very few issues . I have not tried to withdraw funds but every question i have asked has been answered right away. I dont agree with all their policies but they have been very honest and forthcoming with documentation. Site seems easy to use

GBI signed up 2 weeks ago I signed up 2 weeks ago, but having a problem connecting bank account with major institution. In addition, I had a problem with employment verification, and it took 45 minutes via phone to get help. That was resolved, but now I can't fund my account. I sent an email 2 days ago, but still waiting for response. That being said, I have not used the trading platform yet, but if I have a problem, I'm assured a very long wait time. Maybe the delay in funding will give me some time to research the competition a bit more.

TTThis is not a real trading firm... If I could give zero stars I would. Firstrade locked my account and I have been trying for weeks to transfer to another brokerage due to their poor service. The transfer keeps being rejected and they can't tell me why. I have spent numerous hours on the phone to no avail. Eventually I got my other brokerage firm to help me out with the transfer. AVOID FIRSTRADE LIKE THE PLAGUE. THESE PEOPLE ARE UNPROFESSIONAL AND CLUELESS. You'd swear that it is a Mom and Pop business that they're running.

TRWorst Brokerage Ever !!! I initiated ACAT out to transfer my positions to IKBR. They have rejected twice in 2 weeks. First rejection was about tax id mismatch between Firstrade and IBKR. I told that I am a nonresident international investor and do not have a US tax id. How could tax ids mismatch while I am not having one? That's ridiculous. The second rejection had no reason at all. I have filed a complaint with both SEC and FINRA.

GBI really enjoy using Firstrade I really enjoy using Firstrade. Especially I didn’t encounter any app down time during trading in these days while I heard my friends did experience app down when using other broker’s platform to trade. What else I can say, I love Firstrade!
