The hidden fees at The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) are the real scandal here. What they advertise and what they actually charge are two different things. By the time I realized how much I was paying in various fees and spreads, I had already lost a meaningful amount.
Pros: Demo account available|Clean UI|Comprehensive tools|Fast deposits
Cons: Spreads widen during volatile periods
I lost a significant amount because The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) did not execute my stop loss during a flash crash. They said the market was illiquid. Other brokers managed to execute. I have no proof they did not trade against me. Avoid.
Pros: Easy withdrawals|Market news feed|Helpful community forum
Cons: No integrated tax optimization|Limited demo account features
I had high hopes for The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) after hearing about them at a conference, but my experience has been disappointing. Customer support is slow, the platform has frequent issues, and their fee structure is not as transparent as advertised. I am actively looking for alternatives now.
Pros: Segregated accounts|Wide product range|Demo account available
Cons: Minimum deposit could be lower|Minor UI glitches occasionally
The onboarding at The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) was smooth which makes the subsequent experience even more frustrating. Once they have your money, the quality of service drops dramatically. Getting anyone to help you with an actual problem is nearly impossible.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Great customer service
Cons: Could offer more webinars|Would like more payment methods
Opened my account with The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) when my bank disappointed me and I searched for alternatives and regretted it within the first month. The platform crashed during a critical moment, I lost potential gains, and support basically told me it was not their problem. Absolutely unacceptable behavior.
Pros: Multiple order types|Segregated accounts
Cons: No phone support on weekends|Limited cryptocurrency options
I had a dispute with The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) 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: Real-time alerts|Regular platform improvements|Great customer service
Cons: Website design could be more modern|Some tools only available on higher tiers
After using The Financial Centre (financialcenter.uk) for about ten 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: Automated trading options|Full transparency|Customizable dashboard|Quick verification
Cons: Limited ETF selection|Onboarding videos are outdated
