Starting from Christmas Eve and Christmas, they used the company’s festival as an excuse to charge gold and anti-gold. The four-day event time was close to New Year’s Day. The reason was that the spread was lowered, the recharge was anti-money, and other reasons. During the event, the funds in the account suddenly disappeared at the end of the event. The double said that the security deposit exceeds the limit and cannot be withdrawn, and the account is locked and needs to be recharged and unsealed. After recharging, the withdrawal is said to be too large and detained by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. Individuals need to pay personal income tax to get into the account

City Index has more than 15 years’ experience in forex and it does has a regulated FCA license. No minimum deposit amount, high leverage up to 1:500, variable spreads from just 0.8 pips, no commission charged except stocks, mt4 is also offered! As i tested on their demo accounts, everything performs like they advertise. But their payment option is too limited to credit cards, bank transfers and PayPal, other popular e-payments such as Skrill and Neteller are excluded.

User Reviews

Susan - 5th Apr2022

I appreciated the City Index customer care as I rarely have used a live account. All in all, a good experience.

P Shah - 8th Nov2021

I have been trading for a while with City Index and am quite happy with the reliability of trading platforms. Recently I contacted my accounts manager for some statistics regarding my trading performance going back to January 2020. My accounts manager promptly supplied me with this information which otherwise would have taken me hours to extract from monthly statements.

Luke- 26th Jul 2020

The platform is good. Lots of traders I know use this platform. Despite all the negative reviews, it's not a scam. However, understanding the risk of CFDs is something you need to do before trading with them. They often restrict instruments and don't have as wide range of stock CFDs as CMC Markets do. However, the commission is not bad cheaper than CMC. Also tight spreads.
