### 2/5 — Been unable to actually open an account

*2025-12-21*

There are three stages for verification. It’s going fine the first two stages at the third stage it doesn’t continue to create the account.

### 2/5 — Online support

*2025-09-09*

Can your online support be more effective…. At least reply 🤷🏿‍♂️

### 2/5 — Poor performance

*2025-08-29, version 6.0.40*

This app performs below average. Recently slow and unable to view account except you logout and login again.

### 2/5 — Mr Daniel Lewis

*2020-05-15, version 4.0.4*

This app functions below average as it crashes unnecessarily. The screen then become blank and unresponsive. The only way back in is to shut down phone and restart. Poor trading application.

### 1/5 — Up to no good App

*2018-04-13*

All i get is “Error validating your request try and log in again” ALL THE TIME

**Developer response:** Hello Mahdi Ahmed, thank you for the feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience. Kindly update the app as the issue has been fixed.

### 1/5 — Worst Customer service

*2026-02-25, version 7.0.11*

The customer service agents are either not trained properly or they just don’t care. And when you upload documents for verification on the app, it’s Russian roulette if it uploads. The system will tell you it’s uploaded and will send a notification pending review takes 2 days, just for the agents to tell you they have not received anything. Better luck and service on other platforms.

### 1/5 — Hope I was not scam

*2026-02-21, version 7.0.02*

Immediately I funded my account, I was looked out and my screen blank. Since morning I haven’t been able to log in even when I had to put off and on my phone.

### 1/5 — Review

*2026-02-19, version 7.0.02*

App is more confusing now, added too many new parts and removed the basics. A trading app should be easy to use to trade, check performance to make decisions and observe current portfolio. 

The best part of Meritrade use to be the ability to chat customer care and getting quick response. They need to do better.

This broker are not free with letting me withdraw my funds

Don’t put any money here or they’ll trick you with unnecessary protocols

*2025-09-01*

This is a very useless app don’t download it , a mobile gaming app is way more better than this rubbish

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-05-01*

It’s a scam broker how will I be waiting for one month for my account to be created and I can’t withdraw the money I deposited

### 1/5 — Update
