I submitted a withdrawal request and did not receive it for more than a month. The agent for my account does not respond, and the support service does not either. I’m very frustrated with the lack of communication and the delay in processing my funds.

I’ve been using XTB for a while now, and overall, it’s been a solid experience. The platform (xStation) is clean and easy to navigate, which I appreciate. They have a wide range of markets for trading, but I wish they offered MetaTrader support.
