YLCHAT has been flagged by Financial Markets Authority for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services|Fraud ...". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
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: Listed in IOSCO I-SCAN|May not be authorized in your jurisdiction
I joined YLCHAT 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: Social trading features|Tax reports included
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed|Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days
Customer support at YLCHAT seems to be run by people who have never used the platform. Every time I call with an issue, I end up explaining how their own system works before they can help me. It would be funny if my money was not involved.
Pros: Comprehensive tools|Segregated accounts
Cons: Nothing significant|Account statements could be more detailed
The mobile app from YLCHAT is dangerous. I placed an order that showed as pending, so I placed another. Both executed and I was overexposed. When I complained they said it was user error. The app design is misleading.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Easy withdrawals|Automated trading options|Real-time alerts
Cons: Would like more payment methods|Website design could be more modern
Several red flags with YLCHAT: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Financial Markets Authority, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Cons: Flagged by Financial Markets Authority|Cannot verify credentials
I referred a friend to YLCHAT through a forum discussion. 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: Fast support response|Economic calendar|Stable platform|Tax reports included
Cons: Inactivity fee applies after 12 months|Onboarding videos are outdated
I found YLCHAT through a podcast recommendation and the initial impression was positive. But for about eight 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: Segregated accounts|Copy trading available|Low minimum deposit
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully|Would like more payment methods
I was contacted by YLCHAT through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
Tried to withdraw my funds from YLCHAT 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: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
