You're comments on here to answer all these allegations of account mismanagement would show in some way that your firm is serious in dealing with issues that customers have when using your platform. This thread is turning extremely negative and I'm sure that you don't need that.
Trusting you will come forward to shed light on some of the issues that have been raised within this thread.

Well this has just saved me some of my hard earned cash. I got a promotion offer with John Bartlett today saying open an account with worldspreads and they will give you back £250 if you lose £500 in the first 8weeks. I thought ok they seem serious enough. They obviously just need the business and prey on the 95% of losers out there who blow their accounts out and dissapear. Then I just saw this thread thank goodness.
We all await Marv coming back to give us the word from the horses mouth. I will wait to open my account a little longer....

My sister lost well over 500 quid and they have not offered her 250 quid back.
Its a shame I cant say more on her trades, but I repeat again, once I have the Power of Attorney over her account I will post every thing, I have even got screen shots of what went on.
She is sending a second letter this week Let's see if worldspreads will change they mind, before I relieve all about them.

When I am appointed an attorney, I am placed in a position of trust and you must act in the best interests of the donor i.e, my sisiter. As an attorney, you can only do the things the donor has authorised you to do, and you cannot delegate any duties unless the donor has authorised delegation.Basiicaly as this case may go to the FSA, There will be no come backs on me, for writing unauthorised statements. which worldspread may hold against me. so until them I keep the information I have, till I am attorney of her account.Visaria said:

In my experience with (other) SB firms, you'll have trouble proving anything, even if you do have screenshots.
re. the £250 back if you lose £500 offer, surely that means it'll be to your advantage to keep losing once you drop £250?
Anyway, no doubt we're all waiting with bated breath to see if Marvin comments here again!

The worldspread definition of time was resolved, Or so I thought.....!
Fxmarkets previous analysis below
"Again the record plays on, now we have FAST execution thrown into the pot ,whats worldspreads definition of FAST.. ? seriously the corporate mantra is advertising or giving clients the impression that whenever a client FEELS like betting they can do so INSTANTLY . assuming appropriate liquidity in the markets......
Now Id say instant is quicker than both quick and fast.... lets try to resolve it, if worldspreads definition of Instant = upto= 2 mins, quick= upto 2 hours, slowly = hmm check for a clients pulse we can perhaps read fast as being a nudge outside of quick (it doesnt suggest as much urgency compared to quick to me when reading the word.) Fast therefore =2 hours plus.
righty now just need timely,maybe swift execution to be expressed next and i'll try to resolve that for the readers..."
OK now we have ASAP tossed out there and so far its been noted a considerable period of some 15 days has already ticked by , even using the maximal theory in an attempt to help readership attain a worldspreads time definition, I admit im struggling to pin ASAP , hmmm I feel thats a bit of a googly delivery from worldspreads just to keep us on our toes. And lets face it ASAP is a very subjective time tool to be using, however I submit a tentative 37 days forward, based on existing evidence and working practice and a bloody good guess.
So to recap to this point in Non worldspreads time we have as is maybe
Instant = upto= 2 mins :|
quick= upto 2 hours
Fast therefore =2 hours plus
*ASAP=37 days (tentative)
slowly = hmm check for a clients pulse

imo, i dont think we will here from marvin until the issue with laptop 1 is addressed. if he came on and debated the subject he may dig a deeper hole for world spreads.fxmarkets said:Fxmarkets previous analysis below

I have sent them a letter of complaint on my own account. I will post a copy of it once they have replied to my letter. Also as you all know, my sister is still in dispute with them, the next step looks like contacting the FOS,financial-ombudsman service.Further more they have refused me third party, for Power of Attorney over my sister account, I should have every right to raise a dispute on behalf of my sister They should have a simple 3rd party mandate for her to complete. to give me full authority to discuss the account on her behalf.,as they are not allowing a 3rd party to raise a complaint on her behalf as per the rules in DISP 2 and they are, therefore in breach of the FSA rules regarding dispute resolution.dcarrigan said:

Looks like the WS platform's packed up completely this evening, MarvinS.

It depends on the terms of the attorney she has signed. Many companies' documents will only give a limited amount of power - generally resricted to placing trades. As much as she trusts you to trade for her, she may not like the idea of you being able to withdraw her money! There is nothing to prevent her giving you a seperate authority to deal with disputes though. You could copy the style of their PoA form, just substituting the right to negotiate in the case of a dispute for any trading rights.

I will point out to you, under the (DPA) data protection ACT, you have the right to nominate somone to act on your behalf. Therefore, why are you reluctance for me to act on behalf of my sister,this is direct contradiction to your recent remark, which contradicts the principles set out in the DPA in this regard and also contradicts section 2 of DISP in which a nominated third party is defined as an eligible complainant under the Financial Services and Markets Act.
I will wait for you reply with regard to the above.
ps
You have sill not answered my other questionI asked on post #343 date 10-07-2006 Its now been 20 days.
