Funded Engineer Reviews 1,239

With this outfit, you could be made to wait for up to 10 working days after passing your challenge before you get credentials for your funded account.

I now have a sinking feeling that this might be a scam. We will see.

UPDATING CONTINOUS EXPERIENCE:
24/05/2024: They will kick you out of their discord channel for asking basic logical questions. Nothing offensive. Asking why a promise they made has not be fulfilled as promised is all it takes.

ABSOLUTE SCAM. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. I passed my assessments and they said my account are under review. They have been under review for a week. I have sent over 35 emails, spoke to 4 different support members, reached out to live chat and on discord. They all tell me to wait and send me in circles. They have muted me on the discord. They kick me off the live chats. No one responds to my emails anymore. All record and my next payout from elsewhere will be used to publish their scam and share the knowledge

Great firm with great owners.

You can bet on FE

Since accounts were migrated away from purple trading the trading conditions have been terrible. 1:2 risk to reward of $1000 risk turns into $1150-1200 loss and $2000 reward turns into $1600-1700 win. It's clear they are manipulating spreads, etc. I've traded for long enough to know that spreads, slippage, etc are part of the game but not to this extent so consistently. It's clear things are not good with the amount of negative reviews coming in. If anyone is reading this my advice would be to consider Futures.

Terrible!! Once I passed my challenge I didn’t receive a single email. Was back and fourth with like 6 staff members for a email saying I passed. They kept telling me to do one thing after the other. Finally suddenly after 2 and a half weeks of being just told wait. I received my account from no where. Great we were getting somewhere. Still not a single email though. Staff are very unprofessional in there responses. Website looks like it was made on wik for free. So now I have my funded account payout request time is 14 calender trading days which is ok as not all firms give payouts in first week. But here goes the killer. They have a supposed back log of payments and after request has been made have to wait another 30days. We all know why because they haven’t got funds big red flag for suddenly shutting down. Also I clearly stated to them I won’t be buying another challenge till I see what your out system is like. I had a 100k account and was up in good profit. They breached me saying I passed my daily loss limit when it clearly showed on my dashboard I had over 400 left. This company is super sketchy right from the beginning god probably done me a favour to save me the hassle of trying to get payed and waste my time. STAY AWAY THEY ARE SUPER SKETCHY. if you don’t believe me spend your hard earned cash with them and see what I’m talking about.

I have purchasd a account and thn made up my mind as saw the unregulated boker, "fe-markets" in the server when loging in. They obviously tried to hide it in the website cause I wasn't able to find it even afterwards. I requested a refund and way more then 10 day passed since. They don't reply to my emails, don't connect me to agents in live chat, nothing. Totally ignoring me. Stay away from fundedengineer, go the5ers or some non-sketchy firm instead.

Nice prop firm I recently won giveaway with them

Manual Breach
My Mistake, I already had a bad experience with funded Engineer prop firm two months before, they manually breached my 300K account. After a lot of messages and tickets I received a account with lower balance than what I had. After so many Emails and promotions I try to give a another shot with 25K Account. Right now, it was also breached Manuelly even though my balance was 26.6K without any negative margin call or anything.

It was a good prop firm once, but right now better avoid this and go with the better one for no trouble.

UK Trader here with accounts across multiple 'propfirms'.
For clarification; I use a Trade Copy service to place my trades across all accounts.

Account purchased: 25K Superior.

Passed the Phases 1 and 2 using an EA - which was checked with the FE support team, and was said to be 'OK' if the trades were not 'exact' matches with another trader. The EA has a randomise option so it would be impossible to have all my trades the exact same entry / exit.

3 days after completing the challenge I received an email "Important Update Regarding Trading Account" which contained "...it has been confirmed that activities Group Trading..." - which is simply not the case.
I responded politely to the email asking for clarification, and I have received nothing back.

After Funded Engineer being offline for some time, I thought that they may have sorted themselves out, restructured, and started to offer a good 'prop firm' experience - which is why I decided to test them out with a low-mid level 25K account.

Unfortunately it was a bad experience, and would not recommend.

Happy to share screenshots of conversations / emails if potential customers are unsure.

I'd also question the legitimacy of some of these reviews. I am aware of a number of firms giving away accounts for 'competition winners', however the winner has to write a positive review prior to receiving their login details - How can they write a review without having an account?.
I am not saying FE are, or are not, doing this, but i'd recommend checking the profile of a number of reviewers to give some indicator on how legit the review is - on all prop firms.

They are scammers and i would not recommend any one to waste their time. they disqualified my acc while its in profit and giving BS reasons about margin rules. i have all the proofs of my trades. Guys its the worst prop firm and they wont let you be profitable. YOU COULD HAVE REFUND MY MONEY BACK OR GIVE ME ANOTHER CHALLENGE SINCE I WAS IN PROFIT WITH YOUR FUNDED ACC. It is painfull to loose money and on top of that to waste all of my time trying to be profitable and all of that goes in vain with a 200$ loss. My acc was 50k and i was in profit of 1600$

Funded Engineer is one of the most trusted and reliable prop firms, by far. Their Discord community is great, with very quick support for their traders. There are many positive reviews and fast payout proof too.Their engaged workforce, honesty, and long-term vision are outstanding. Furthermore, their service is fantastic.

Don't be misled, the sole result here is bias. Where does all the money they've taken even go? Don't let them benefit from your sloppiness. No prejudice, no scams, high disbursements~that's echelonis elitus, They are the real deal.

Reliable firm with great customer service staffs to answer your questions 24/7.

My first account was closed due to their server problems. My second account was closed for a new rule of inactivity which was non existant when I bought it and communicated only on discord. I reached the support for help but they forced the closure of the ticket without my willing and then BANNED me from their discord because I wanted to warned people. They don't allow comments on X. CENSORSHIP. They keep coming with new rules without warning to make you lose your account. BAD PRODUCT, BAD SUPPORT.

Careful all traders, FE just breached my challenge account due to 30 days inactivity rule. This rule is there to catch you out, its not in traders best interests. 90 days would have been fairer. Goodbye FE.

recently i passed my challenge account but they breached my account and make the excuse that i break their there rule of kyc and they suspend my account
i have to go to the place tell by the company to take the selfie from this place even the y send me the picture of that place and asked to give a selfie with the full name and the date i forget to take the paper of my name and the date and submit the selfie on their dashboard after so many email they said to me that they account his breached due to violation of rules even the blocked the chat from the dashboard

I successfully completed my Funded Engineer challenge and received a payout. For the past tow months, I've been using a strategy where I purchase smaller guaranteed HFT challenges❤️and link them to my Funded Engineer account. I trade cautiously, and once I see some profits, I get a payout from the HFT firm. I rely on the MQL5 bot called smart Funded HFT to pass these HFT challenges on my own.

Won a giveaway! Good propfirm!

I applied for a refund on march 4th 2024, which they approved multiple times on online chat since, but they never processed it. Still waiting for it more then 2 months now. Beside that they are changing the rules every week for traders, to make it harder for a payout, they have one of the lowest prices and there are also delays in bigger payouts. Their business model is unsustainable and I bet they will exit scam in a few months. Stay away from them. Their practices are shady and have huge red flags. I decided to write this review when they banned me from the discord channel for patiently asking questions about my refund process.

EDIT as reply: Yes, I've done that many times (once a week) from day one, but somehow you have not processed it. Always getting the same default generated answer of an apology and to provide details. I provided at least 6 times and nothing happened. You block customers asking about the refund process on your discord channel. Basically your "as soon as possible" means never so I doubt that it will be different this time.
