Waterfall Global Invest has been flagged by British Columbia Securities Commission 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.
After seeing ads for Waterfall Global Invest online, I investigated. The company is listed in the IOSCO I-SCAN warnings database and has been flagged by British Columbia Securities Commission. Their website looks professional but that means nothing - many scam operations invest heavily in appearance. Always check the regulatory warnings before investing.
Cons: Flagged by British Columbia Securities Commission|Cannot verify credentials
I lost a significant amount because Waterfall Global Invest 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: Regular platform improvements|Dedicated account manager|Comprehensive tools|Educational resources
Cons: No fractional shares|Spreads widen during volatile periods
I found Waterfall Global Invest through a financial advisor and the initial impression was positive. But for about five months later, I have encountered so many issues that I cannot recommend them. Trades failing, charts not loading, and support tickets going unanswered for days at a time.
Pros: Copy trading available|Quick verification
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux
I invested $2,000 with Waterfall Global Invest 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 British Columbia Securities Commission.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Cannot withdraw funds|Not regulated|Pressure tactics
I trusted Waterfall Global Invest with a significant portion of my savings and I deeply regret that decision. Not because of market losses, but because of how poorly the platform performed and how dismissively the support team treated my concerns.
Pros: Helpful community forum|Social trading features
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully|Charting tools need more indicators
My card was charged twice by Waterfall Global Invest on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. Waterfall Global Invest then froze my account and said I had a negative balance because of the chargeback. They created the problem and then punished me for it.
Pros: Professional team|Personal attention|Demo account available
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|Minimum deposit could be lower
The spread at Waterfall Global Invest is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them from a review site like this one and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.
Pros: Fast support response|Risk management tools|API access
Cons: No live chat on mobile
The only good thing about Waterfall Global Invest is that they remind you why regulation matters. I found them after hearing about them at a conference. 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: Professional team|Clear documentation
Cons: Could offer more webinars
I joined Waterfall Global Invest through a financial advisor 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: Clear documentation|Wide product range|High security standards|Fast support response
Cons: Limited demo account features
I looked into Waterfall Global Invest and found they appear in the regulatory warnings database. British Columbia Securities Commission has issued a notice about this firm. Whether this is a misunderstanding or a serious concern, the fact remains that proper due diligence is essential. Always verify the regulatory status of any company before investing your hard-earned money.
Cons: Listed in IOSCO I-SCAN|May not be authorized in your jurisdiction
