MayFairOptions – SCAM!

These are scammers, plain and simple. If you think I bear a grudge, try contact them on one of their numbers, or email there support. They operate a boiler room out of Venezuela of all places where you will receive numerous daily calls asking you to deposit more money. They make up the offers as they choose. You will never hear from them if you request a withdrawal

THIS IS A SCAM!!!! I DEPOSITED 5000$ AND MY ACCOUNT WAS BLOCKED, NOW I CAN’T ACCESS MY ACCOUNT OR WITHDRAWAL ANY MONEY… THEY DON’T ANSWER EMAIL OR CALLS, 100 % FRAUD..!

DO NOT USE MAYFAIR!!! (and why can I not rate zero stars here???)

Mayfair options are by far the worst company I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. When I say worst company, I do not mean just Binary Traders, but the worst in any industry anywhere. Their online support is incredibly slow and appears they only have two people covering 24 hour support – TWO hours just to try to organise a payout via online support. Any telephone number listed on their site is FAKE. I actually deliberately traded my account into the ground to try and stop anymore phone calls from their ‘brokers’ (marketing???)

After making my initial ‘sample’ deposit and completing some successful trades, the multiple phone calls per day began all telling me that I needed to deposit more money to get a broker, blah, blah, etc ,etc. These calls came in at all hours, day and night 12.30 am, 4 am, etc. despite repeatedly advising that I was just trialling for the moment and would contact them if ready to deposit more.

After about two week of constant phone calls, I decided enough was enough and attempted to withdraw my initial deposit plus remaining balance on the account. Both of which were not large amounts but money none the less. This is where the real fun began!

After submitting my withdraw request and getting notification that the funds should be received in around 5 working days, I waited, and waited… Eventually logging back on only to find the request had been cancelled. An inquiry to the customer service revealed that the withdraw function could only be used for the amount that was originally deposited. All other withdrawals had a different process – which include waiting for the first withdraw to arrive in my account before requesting the rest… (?!?) this is not mentioned on the site. OK – So I did my withdraw again and after waiting, waiting, was told I needed to verify my identity again – for the THIRD time now. This is now at around four weeks since my original request to withdraw! I provided my identify checks again, resubmitted my withdraw request and waited, and waited, and finally the original deposit arrived back in my account.

Upon attempting to request the remaining balance (my winnings) I was told that I needed to now print and complete a form verifying, once again that I’d made my original deposit – the very same one they had already processed the payout on. The reason I’m told is that they were changing their procedure and everybody needed to complete this. I actually tried to do a small trade at this time on an almost sure thing and found my account was actually suspended. I was advised that this was because I had not yet completed the new form that I’d never heard about before – I suspect that it was actually because I was trying to actually *gasp* withdraw my winnings.

I don’t have easy access to a printer but eventually managed to print and scan this form. Upon attempting to submit to customer service I was told it had to be sent via reply email. I never received any email in the first place. I was also told at this time that I’d made a request to withdraw my account three days earlier that had already been accepted. Definitely not me requesting a payout – why would I even waste my time trying to request this when I had this additional form to complete. Asking support if it’s possible my account had been accessed by somebody else was ignored. Realising I’d spent about ten hours stuffing around to try and get around 200 dollars paid out and that somebody else had requested a payout of my account, I decided to write it off as a lost cause. I ended up completing some trades that were quite likely to lose and got my account down to a balance of zero. At least now they 4 am phone calls from their ‘brokers’ might stop.
