My first scamm since October 2023. KEE AWAY

I'm writing this review after 2 weeks waiting for my small payout (600$). I contact support every 2 days, and same answer, "wait patiently"
IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING TO CONTINUE TRADING IF YOU DON'T RECEIVE YOUR PAYOUT. WHAT A LOSE OF TIME.
⚠️How can you still submit false payouts on social media to continue scamming people? THEY WILL DISAPPEAR SOON.
Expensive and scammer

Dear Valued Customer,

First and foremost, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. This morning, our Discord channel was compromised for a brief period, and a scammer attempted to deceive our community. Fortunately, due to our community's awareness and vigilance, the impact was minimal.

While such incidents can occur beyond our control, we want to assure you that the issue has been resolved, and our Discord channel is now secure. Please remember that Funded Engineer will never request payments outside of our official gateways.

We deeply regret that you have lost funds due to this scam, and we are extremely sorry for the distress this has caused. Despite our best efforts to safeguard our community, this incident was beyond our immediate control.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Best regards,

Totally Fraudulent Company, Be Aware Traders

Total Scam! Avoid at All Costs!

I traded for two months consistently and finally got a funded account. I even made a profit of around $900. However, just a day before the payout date, they manually breached my account to avoid paying me. This firm faced allegations of faking payouts in February and was shut down for a month. Throughout that struggling period, I stood by them and waited patiently, supporting them during their recovery.

Despite my support and patience, this is how they repay me for all my hard work and time. I have emailed their support several times and received no response. This firm is a total scam running strategically from UAE. Do not put your hard-earned money and time into these scammers. Be very careful when choosing a prop firm, as most of these firms are not here to help traders; they are here to mint money out of your pocket.

Avoid this firm at all costs!

Inactivity Problem Solved

After back and forth email traffic, they fixed the issue. It took some time for sure, but i am happy to see they put effort to solve problems rather than denying or ignoring them. Hope they continue in the business long term.

My 3 accounts were blocked for inactivity. On my part, explanations sent with screenshots. They analysed the situation and came up with a solution which left both parties satisfied.

Appreciate it.

Terrible Risk Management team

The live support is okay. But the risk management team is HORRIBLE. They said they were gonna do a third party verification in 48 hours and its been 7 DAYS. They still haven’t verified me. The worst part is that the don’t reply emails. Fundedengineer.com your risk management team is the WORST

FAILED FIRM

The worst Prop experience you can have. Utter disregard for users beyond marketing a faulty useless service to them. PAYOUTS are delayed for WEEKS "if" they're not denied based on their discretion. Once there's an issue, zero to no communication. Crypto not available yet they keep marketing it and saying they offer crypto. I currently still have a $500k cumulative account that i haven't even been able to trade for week straight. The only crypto pair tradable is BTC and its been placed in readonly mode for over 2 months now. Effectively, crypto traders haven't been able to make use of the service since February (4months as at May). To make it worse, no freedom to even communicate or complain on discord, once you raise an issue, your message is deleted immediately (programmed bot) or you're temporarily suspended. THE ONE THING THEY'RE GOOD AT THOUGH, IS BRINGING UP ADDITIONAL RETRO ACTIVE NEW RULES AS AND WHEN IT PLEASES THEM. RIDICULOUS.

EVERYONE PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS FUNDED…

EVERYONE PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS FUNDED ENGINEER PROP FIRM!!! I am the victim of not receiving 2 payouts and refundable fees as promised/advertised after being funded.

I was supposed to receive my 1st payout + refundable fees on 30th April 2024 after waited for 14 trading days as mentioned by their rules & regulations. But after waited for almost 1 week and receive no notification from them, I was then kept email them and even livechat numerous time every alternate days to ask about my payout progress.

They had always gave the same excuses "Hello again. We are currently processing payouts, so it might be a little delayed". They even passed around with different customer support person so I will have to keep repeating and told them the whole story again and again.

This situation prolong till 15th of May 2024 which reached the 2nd payout dateline where I clicked on the 2nd payout request and I even livechat again with them to ask about my progress as currently it has been 2nd payout which I did not receive anything from them up to now!

As time pass now still receive no update from them, I was getting quite frustrated and almost lost confidence and trust on them. On 20th May 2024, again I livechat them to ask about 2 of my payouts and refundable fees, and GUESS WHAT??

"We regret to inform you that your payout request is unlikely to be approved. Upon reviewing your account activity, we found that a significant portion of your trades were based on news events, which did not comply with our news trading rule.
We understand that this may be disappointing news, and we want to ensure you that our rules are in place to maintain a fair trading environment for all our clients."

I am able to write exactly the words above because I had print screen the whole conversation in livechat as my evidence. Guess what they do after that? They cleared all the history of our conversation in their livechat after I challenged them to show me proof that I violate their rules etc...and even told them I will expose them out in public.

There was once I joined their discord channel after attempting to ask about my payout issue in their general chat, guess what again? I was kicked out immediately after I sent the message in the chat and was unable to join their discord channel again.

I hope my above writing exposing their scammy prop firm thingy will be an eye opener for everyone. And for your information too, I have another 3rd payout pending to withdraw on 28th May 2024 which I knew I wouldn't get it too.

If they claimed that I breached their rules, For you guys information too, I only reached 1% 10K account profit in each payout. I'm not a high risk trader and I traded very safely and consistently to avoid creating excuses for propfirm to ban me which I heard a lot in trading space. I'm not new in prop firm trading space, I've been trading for almost 3 years and I have been trading in other prop firms too such as Funded Next, 5%er, Alpha Capital, Funded Peaks and consistently receiving payouts consecutively every 14 days in Funded Next. They are very good pay master and I appreciated it so much....

Dear Valued Customer,

We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Please note that our news trading rule is clearly stated on our website. While we allow passing the challenge using news trading, profits generated by taking advantage of news events are not permitted at the funded stage, as they do not demonstrate proper trading skills. We do not breach accounts for news trading; however, any profits generated from news events will be deducted.

Margin called on a 0.5 position on a 6k account, nowhere near the daily or account max loss.
How was that margin level 110%... i should be able to control more units

Dear Valued Trader,

At Funded Engineer, we prioritize traders who engage in authentic trading activities. Our margin call rule is designed to prevent excessive leverage and mitigate high-risk gambling activities. If you have received a margin call, it indicates that you are utilizing excessive leverage on that particular pair.

We offer ample leverage tailored to the size and type of your account. If you are still getting margin call violations, it suggests an issue with your trading behavior. Here are the leverage ratios for different account types with Funded Engineer:

Superior, Lite, and Turbo Accounts:

Forex: 1:100 for challenge accounts
Forex: 1:30 for funded accounts
Metals: 1:20
Indices: 1:20
Commodities: 1:20
Crypto: 1:2
Swing Challenge:

Forex Pairs: 1:20
Metals: 1:10
Indices: 1:10
Commodities: 1:10
Crypto: 1:2

Rule Link -- https://www.fundedengineer.com/faqs/what-happens-if-my-positions-are-stopped-out-due-to-a-margin-call/

You mentioned receiving a margin call after opening a 0.5 lot position. Please note that trading 0.5 lots in Forex and trading 0.5 lots in Gold are not equivalent, as each instrument has its own margin requirements.

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
