Lesrouleaux has been flagged by Financial Services and Markets Authority for "Fraud and Other Types of Misconduct". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
If you are reading this considering Lesrouleaux - run. I wish I had read more negative reviews through a financial advisor. I thought the positive ones were real. Maybe some are. My experience over since I retired last year has been so bad I feel obligated to warn others. Do not make my mistake.
Pros: Clear documentation|Easy withdrawals|Smooth onboarding|Copy trading available
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|Desktop app not available on Linux
I experienced a security concern with my Lesrouleaux account and reported it immediately. Their response time was inexcusable for a financial platform. It took them four days to acknowledge my report and another week to actually address it.
Pros: Dividend tracking|Regular updates|Multi-device support
Cons: Search feature is basic
This company appears on the IOSCO I-SCAN international warnings list. Over 68 financial regulators worldwide contribute to this database. While being listed doesn't automatically mean fraud, it's a significant red flag that potential investors should take seriously. Do your research thoroughly.
Cons: Flagged by international regulators|Due diligence required
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. Lesrouleaux said it was market conditions. Same news, another broker filled me properly. They are not honest.
Pros: Clean UI|Professional team|Quick verification|Wide product range
Cons: Minimum deposit could be lower
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Lesrouleaux is not authorized by any legitimate financial regulator. They are operating illegally. The website looks very professional but it's all a facade. Please check the regulatory warnings database before investing with ANY company.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
Lesrouleaux has no proper customer support. The live chat is a bot. The phone number goes to a call center that cannot access your account. Email takes two weeks. When I had a real problem they were nowhere to be found.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Personal attention
Cons: No dark mode on mobile|Could offer more webinars
After using Lesrouleaux for the past year and a half, 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: Clean UI|Easy withdrawals|Tax reports included|Dividend tracking
Cons: Research section could be deeper
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, Lesrouleaux is disorganized and incompetent. I found them after seeing their ad online and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Regular updates|Intuitive for beginners|No hidden fees
Cons: No phone support on weekends|Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
I referred a friend to Lesrouleaux after a family member had a good experience. We both deposited. The referral bonus never arrived. Support said we did not meet the terms. When we asked which terms they pointed to a clause that was added after we signed up. Shady.
Pros: Clear documentation|Competitive fees|API access|Multi-device support
Cons: Minor UI glitches occasionally
I had a dispute with Lesrouleaux 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: No hidden fees|Comprehensive tools
Cons: Nothing significant|No fractional shares
