Blackridge Partners Limited has been flagged by Central Bank of Ireland for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
Do not use Blackridge Partners Limited for anything serious. I used them for about eight months for small trades and it was okay. When I deposited a larger amount and traded more, my account was flagged, my withdrawals were delayed, and I was asked to explain my trading. They treat active traders like criminals.
Pros: Customizable dashboard|Two-factor authentication|Transparent fees
Cons: Alert system is basic
What really bothers me about Blackridge Partners Limited is the disconnect between their marketing and reality. They position themselves as a premium service but deliver a below-average experience. Found them after seeing their ad online and I fell for the polished exterior. Never again.
Pros: Comprehensive tools|Dedicated account manager|Easy to use platform
Cons: No phone support on weekends|Website design could be more modern
Several red flags with Blackridge Partners Limited: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Central Bank of Ireland, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Cons: Flagged by Central Bank of Ireland|Cannot verify credentials
Their execution during news is terrible. I had limit orders in place. When the news hit, my orders were not filled at the limit price - they were filled much worse. Blackridge Partners Limited said it was market conditions. Same news, another broker filled me properly. They are not honest.
Pros: Personal attention|Easy withdrawals|Wide product range|Professional team
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague
Blackridge Partners Limited seems more interested in acquiring new customers than taking care of existing ones. The marketing is aggressive but the product is mediocre. Once you are past the honeymoon period, the cracks in their service become very apparent.
Pros: Responsive team|Regular platform improvements|Clean UI|Good mobile app
Cons: Would like more payment methods|Limited cryptocurrency options
After using Blackridge Partners Limited for about three months, I decided to move my account elsewhere. The platform was unreliable, withdrawals took an unreasonable amount of time, and I could never get a straight answer from customer service. Frustrating experience overall.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Regular updates
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators
I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to Blackridge Partners Limited. They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.
Pros: Social trading features|Personal attention
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully|Search feature is basic
If you are reading this considering Blackridge Partners Limited - run. I wish I had read more negative reviews through my accountant's suggestion. I thought the positive ones were real. Maybe some are. My experience over since last summer has been so bad I feel obligated to warn others. Do not make my mistake.
Pros: Comprehensive tools|Regular platform improvements|Competitive fees|Personal attention
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources|Some tools only available on higher tiers
I want to warn everyone about Blackridge Partners Limited. They have been flagged by Central Bank of Ireland as an unauthorized entity. I wish I had checked before investing. They use high-pressure sales tactics and fake testimonials. Once you send money, getting it back is nearly impossible.
Cons: Cannot withdraw funds|Not regulated|Pressure tactics
