I have been trying to withdraw my funds for months, but my requests are constantly ignored. Customer support is unresponsive, and I feel like I have been scammed. It’s frustrating and disappointing. I would not recommend Paramount Markets to anyone.

The trading platform works well, but the withdrawal process is a hassle. I’ve faced delays and communication issues with the support team. While the range of instruments is decent, the lack of regulation makes me uneasy about the safety of my funds.
