Пополнение бесплатное, но вывод средств даже на карту Visa, с которой пополнялись будет с конской комиссией в 3,2%! При этом персональный менеджер будет врать, что брокер ничего не берет и сваливает на банк, но по запросу подтверждения с банка сразу сливается.

Translation:
Replenishment is free, but withdrawal of funds even to a Visa card, with which they were replenished with a horse commission of 3.2%! In this case, the personal manager will lie that the broker does not take anything and dumps it on the bank, but upon request of confirmation from the bank, it immediately merges.

I have been trading for over a decade now and have used services of Orbex. The spreads and rebates on Orbex have been good. Even for a small deposit of $1000, they assign a relationship manager who can be contacted easily. Otherwise also the customer response is prompt. Deposit and Withdrawal is free but there are some conditions which you have to check properly. Leverages will vary depending on where has the account been opened due to regulation. Deposit bonus is mostly absent but for higher deposit they give you some special spreads on majors.
