I started with 250 lost 200k

I started with 250. I was incouraged to put more and more by non stop calls. They make you lose , they put you in a position where you have to put more to save your investments. It's true their prices per share don't reflect market. They slow infact I think their trading platform is fake too.
I lost 200k and my self trading made 40k.
They make money from your losses. And opening. Dead trades. If I didn't have a broker playing my self would have been better results.
I tried wealth recovery it's slow and I do t trust them too.
They only have 1900 customers they claim. And reply to bad review is small numbers.
Never use platform or acc out side UK.
Thay all scammers.

I have invested a significant amount with 101 investing, before I read the negative reviews. Their trader was very insistent that I treble my investment. What should I do now? is there a way out? can any unbiased person advise me.

STAY AWAY

STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY

very pushy, and there is no winning with this company, all they do is to make you lose your money. High spreads, expensive swaps and horrible customer service. I have lost 7k in 2 weeks. If I had a chance I would burn their building down in Cyprus and see them burning. BE CAREFUL!!!!!

Getting lots of spam calls..

I have recently registered with them just to see what is there. After I put my phone number, email address in and so on, I started receiving spam calls, like ten a day. Some of them were coming from them, but most of them didn't. I looked the numbers up and they were reported as spam calls from various telemarketers and similar companies. They obviously sold my details without my knowledge. I just emailed them that I am no longer interested and to delete whatever details they hold in my name.
How can one trust an investment company if the first thing they do is selling your phone number and email address?? Looking at the reviews here, I am so happy that I didn't go any further and didn't invest in anything.

This company is one of the worst company and stay away from them and keep your money safe…

This company is one of the worst company I have dealt with as initially they ask you to deposit small amount like £250 then straight away you get call from account manager who are only highly trained to take out money from you and ask you to make a big deposit and they will show you all fake opportunities about your money can be double in just matter of few days and ask you to place trades where they have huge amount of swaps so overnight they make huge amount of money and when you are loosing money on one side from the trades due to there wrong advise and on another side they are making huge amount of money from obernight swaps and they make sure your trade stays in negative so you don't close the trades and they continuously making money. I have even been cheated where I have been told that my account is platinum account and even to make your account platinum they will just make a documents and get you sign so you can place big trades so they can make big money from swaps to rip you off. I have £44223.95 with them and out of this around £5700 is only there swap money plus other charges. I can go and on and on but no point as i think this is enough for anyone to understand the company.

Boiler room scam - there isn't a rating low enough!

As well as my below review, please read Trustpilot’s transparency information in relation to this company. It is interesting that a significant proportion of their 5 star reviews appear over a 3 week period in May 2021. It appears that this unusual, high volume activity is a strategic and deliberate attempt to counteract the many honest, 1 star reviews of this Company. I would ask Trustpilot to investigate and remove these spurious reviews in order to give a true reflection of this Company.

My partner was unfortunate in being attracted to the opportunity of making some money (as most people are). With a cursory look at 101 investing, she was under the impression that it was a safe environment, given that they are a regulated provider.

The bad news - that regulator is CySEC.

At the outset, 101 investing were completely remiss in not adequately explaining or checking my partners understanding of the risks involved. She was, as most people are, totally unsuitable for such a complex, high risk product.

They highlighted and honed in on the positive aspect of leverage but failed to adequately explain how it amplified any losses.

There were lots of phone calls, but never from the same number. 101 employees would never leave a message nor would they put things in writing. Try looking these guys up on LinkedIn - clearly not proud of their own business or being part of it. And are their names even real? I suspect not. I guess these guys would not wish to be found.

Stop losses were introduced as a tool to manage risk but actively avoided / discouraged by 101 investing. As my partners account became over traded (guided by 101), their answer was to put more money in. They called it giving the account “more oxygen”. Their high pressure selling technique - the fear of losing everything - swayed my partner to add yet more funds to her account. However, instead of using this oxygen in a prudent way, my partner was again persuaded (pressured) to open yet more trades. Considering the account originally had way too many trades to manage this was a blatant and deliberate step on the part of 101 to secure dramatic and significant losses, which eventually came to fruition.

The majority of all my partners decisions were made in a state of fear and/or panic. As far as 101 investing were concerned, they pressed on with the full knowledge of how increasingly uncertain, uncomfortable and distressed my partner was becoming.

101 investing catagorically employ processes that are designed to engineer the loss of their clients capital.

Boiler room scam - AVOID!

This guys are equipped with the best…

This guys are equipped with the best tools to make you to loose all your money. (If anyone request the names of the accounts manager please let me know). They are all based in Cyprus.

They are very good deceiving people, starting with low volumes to show how easy is to make money, then they start bring the volume up and forcing you to make decisions without any thought process.
Once you trapped they will ask you to add more money so you can come out of the dangerous of losing all , but that's a lie, what they want his to charge you with their swap service (very high) and obvious they will start the trade in negative so they can make a substantial amount of money, special if the volume is high.
Unfortunately I'm part of those whom felt in their trap and obviously I am here to tell you not to use this broker, they have no mercy, they are cruel people with one single objective RIP YOU OFF.
I have conversations recorded if anyone interested in listen to it.
They are indeed regulated company and everything is legit but if you are a beginner you have no change against them, they are so good that they would sell water to the sea.

Other things:
Their app sometimes doesn't work, if you are in profit and are waiting for their advise they won't contact you until it goes negative again. Once the market change it will go over night then you will have to pay for the swap............... Traps over traps.

There is no signals of when to buy or when to sell.

Loads more to share about this scam company, I read all the reviews from different website and still I did trust them, my own fault and no-one to blame apart of myself.

Trading is good if you are doing it with serious organisation that will take their profit but are really prepared to helping you to make money.

I will be more carefully going forward.

The company failed to refund money, (finally returned)

The company failed to refund me the full amount of my deposit back, i am talking about couple of thousands euro. At this point i lost my trust in this company 100% their costumer support is clueless about what happened to my deposit, according to them it's been sent according to my bank it's not. They have contacted their finance department overand over again to just send me a verification that the money has been sent, i have sent my bank account statements dozens of times to prove that i haven't received my money yet, they restart the investigation process and i get same answers from costumers support each time i am calling them, the 3 common answers are as followed:
- provide us with 6 month of your bank account statement please,
- we have contacted our finance department and waiting for response
- we will update you as soon as we get any news from finance department.
I have been hearing this each and every day for a month now.
Don't invest your money here because you might not get your money back!!!
Update for my review i finely got my money back it cost me over 1,5 month of nerve wracking thoughts, constant calls and so on. Here by i also change the score from 1 to 2 stars due to unsufiecient customer support when it comes to money return... I hope it's helpful.

Scammers!!! Stay away!!!!!!!!

Worst experience ever.... i saw the advert about Amazon shares and i was very interested to buy one.... the cost of one share £3200...
They will make you to deposit this money that you will never take back... after they will make you trade on oil, gold, gas...and at the end losing all the money...
Before to make the deposit I asked if can withdraw money and they told me that i can withdraw the money whenever i want... not true!!!
When you will try they will send you to a oops page...
I still have very little money in the account just after 1 day!!!! and i told them at the beginning of the day that i want my money back!!!!They don’t care ... they just want all your money
They are moving very fast.....I’m pretty sure that i lose everything in one more day....

Oh G!!!

Oh G!!!
I was listening to music on YTube, I put the phone in my pocket while shopping; I must've clicked on their ad on YTube and registered by mistake(I have the auto-fill option). I realised that after I received a registration confirmation email; I unsubscribed straight away! Only few minutes after I received a phone call from them; a lady; I explained what happened; she didn't believe me and kept on arguing! I CLEARLY told her that I AM NOT INTERESTED and that I'm going to hung up! She called AGAIN from another number!!! What is this if not HARASSMENT???!!!
I don't know if they are genuine, I can't say anything about them, but this attitude is simply UNACCEPTABLE!

Don't bother apologising, it's cheap and we all know it's not genuine!!

The best trading platform available

The best trading platform available. Someone is definitely adding negative reviews here, not possible to explain these comments otherwise about them. Especially the webinars and educational tools helped me a lot learning the basics of trading! Also all my encounters with the support team have been more than pleasant!!!
