Bonds Miners has been flagged by Financial Conduct Authority 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.
I opened an account with Bonds Miners for a few weeks now ago. The platform frequently logs you out, orders fail to execute at the stated price, and when you complain they blame your internet connection. I have screenshots proving otherwise.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Copy trading available|Instant funding|Risk management tools
Cons: Research section could be deeper
The only good thing about Bonds Miners is that they remind you why regulation matters. I found them through a podcast recommendation. They are regulated in a jurisdiction with weak consumer protection. When things went wrong I had nowhere to turn. Stick to well-regulated brokers.
Pros: Good mobile app|Social trading features|Instant funding
Cons: Would like more payment methods|Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
I invested $2,000 with Bonds Miners after seeing their professional-looking website. At first, everything seemed fine - they showed me impressive returns on my dashboard. But when I tried to withdraw, they kept making excuses. First it was "processing time," then "verification needed," then "you need to pay a tax fee first." I never got my money back. I have since reported them to Financial Conduct Authority.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
After using Bonds Miners for over three years, 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: Educational resources|API access
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux
Customer support at Bonds Miners seems to be run by people who have never used the platform. Every time I call with an issue, I end up explaining how their own system works before they can help me. It would be funny if my money was not involved.
Pros: Excellent charting|Fast support response|Multi-currency support
Cons: Website design could be more modern|Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
I had a dispute with Bonds Miners and went to their complaints process. They have an internal team that just defends the company. Then they said I could go to an ombudsman - but the ombudsman they use is industry-funded and rarely rules for the client. The system is rigged.
Pros: Regular platform improvements|Real-time alerts|Intuitive for beginners
Cons: Limited ETF selection
Their two-factor authentication was optional when I joined. I enabled it. Later I lost my phone and could not log in. Bonds Miners recovery process took 3 weeks and required notarized documents. By then I had missed important trades. Their security is your inconvenience.
Pros: Competitive fees|Tax reports included
Cons: Wait times can be long during peak hours|No phone support on weekends
Bonds Miners offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.
Pros: Great customer service|Portfolio tracking tools|Clear documentation|Helpful community forum
Cons: Website design could be more modern|Desktop app not available on Linux
After seeing ads for Bonds Miners online, I investigated. The company is listed in the IOSCO I-SCAN warnings database and has been flagged by Financial Conduct Authority. Their website looks professional but that means nothing - many scam operations invest heavily in appearance. Always check the regulatory warnings before investing.
Pros: Website looks legitimate on the surface
Cons: Flagged by Financial Conduct Authority|Cannot verify credentials
