Fortress Overview 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.
Tried to withdraw my funds from Fortress Overview and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
The reporting at Fortress Overview is laughably bad. Tax documents are inaccurate, transaction histories have gaps, and trying to export data for your accountant is a nightmare. For a financial platform, getting the numbers right should be the bare minimum.
Pros: Regular updates|Fast execution|Responsive team|Transparent fees
Cons: Limited social trading features
I joined Fortress Overview after a friend recommended them and from the start, things felt off. The signup process collected far more personal information than necessary, the verification took unreasonably long, and when I finally got access, the platform was nothing like what was advertised.
Pros: Dividend tracking|Educational resources|Tax reports included|Transparent fees
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux|Would like more payment methods
