www.northern-lion.com

www.northern-lion.com changed their fee structure with one month notice. What was a flat fee became a percentage. For my account size it meant a huge increase. When I objected they said I could leave. So I am leaving and writing this review.

Do not believe the bonus offer from www.northern-lion.com. The turnover requirement is designed so you can never withdraw. I learned the hard way. I deposited while looking for alternatives to my previous provider and the bonus terms were buried in pages of small print. My fault for not reading but their design is predatory.

I joined www.northern-lion.com while looking for alternatives to my previous provider 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.

My card was charged twice by www.northern-lion.com on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. www.northern-lion.com 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.

The so-called education at www.northern-lion.com is just marketing. Every webinar ends with a push to deposit more. The market analysis is generic and often wrong. If you want real education go elsewhere. I wasted for a few weeks now thinking they would help me learn.

Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, www.northern-lion.com is disorganized and incompetent. I found them after a trusted YouTuber reviewed them and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.

I referred a friend to www.northern-lion.com after hearing about them at a conference. 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.

The spread at www.northern-lion.com is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them through a forum discussion and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.

I am in a dispute with www.northern-lion.com over a trade that was clearly erroneous. The price shown was wrong, I closed at a profit, and they reversed the trade and took the money back. They said it was a system error. So I lose and they keep? Unacceptable.

I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to www.northern-lion.com. They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.
