I agree £13m is a lot but the fact is that they did it somehow. I am sure my wifes situation is tiny. The fact is they had 5000 active clients and probably a lot of them wouldnt realise that they had been told a story if they asked for their money. We were threatened on several occasions if we...

Probably because they knew that the FOS takes months to rule and in that time they have a £0 balance on their ledger rather than client owed £30000. Obviously I dont know- but if they did something similar to other people asking to be paid out decent amounts you quickly have a balance sheet...

stevespray My wife deposited £1500 at TWS after 4 weeks it is over £30000. She asks for her money back. Accounts say they have sent it and it comes up on her statement that it has been sent(6 x £5000 to "avoid security" my wife was told). 30 hours later she gets an email form D Bacon counsel...

Mornington Crescent I can assure you that I did not make it up!! I have got loads of emails from Bacon and Foley. They are all quite long winded hence there is not much point posting. I think that is part of the fraud trying to deflect as much away from the situation at WS and trying to make...

I have got others as well which show that Foley, Bacon and Mcneilie all were aware that there was something going on. They either chose to ignore or knew about it.

I have emails from last October which show that Conor Foley clearly was aware there were issues at WS which he is now trying to distance himself from. I wonder what City of London police will make of it? Hopefully the same conclusion I came to - they were at it!

Looks very messy! WorldSpreads to be closed over alleged fraud By Simon Mundy

I suspect they have been up to all sorts. In my wifes case the disputed £30k suddenly reversed out of her account despite there being an on going investigation. So it registered as a zero balance. If you do that multiple times to winning balances then your cash position takes on a much healthier...

The FSA have some very serious questions to answer. Any company that offers zero spreads is quite clearly at it. They are only going to lay bets to losers and pray that they dont lose too much to others before they do multi requotes. It is very shabby dealing at best. The fact I warned them and...

Anyone who has money with them should get it back. There is a big story to come out here. I have been chasing them since last September. My wife won over £30000 off them after 600 trades. When she asked for the money all of a sudden there were manifest errors and she wasnt doing the trading on...

I had a go at the system today. Ftse this morning was excellent but as we approach USA time it got a bit more difficult as the FTSE was trading off the S&P. As far as I could see the only time to be careful this morning was when we had a mini spike but it was very encouraging as it gave quite...

Legion I suspect that Laptop1 holding time was a lot less than 3 mins. The only reason he will have been taken off instant ex. would be if he is at it! I do trading for a living and I use WS quite a lot. Remember if you are a good trader and make money then the SB companies will hedge or...

I have been using WS for the last 9 months but was absolutely astonished at some of the postings on this thread. I think that when the price feed was a bit slow I viewed it all as a bit off a giggle I think I got away with it for about 45 mins before they pulled auto execute. I phoned them up...
