GoatFundedTrader 

Brought an instant funded account and when it come to trying to withdraw my profit they have accused me of Copy trading when I use my own trades on either gold or Bitcoin,
I have asked for evidence of me copy trading which they can’t provide,
I have sent many emails to this company and they say the same thing over and over again!! It has been 4 weeks!
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

Avoid like the plague. They don't pay out once you become profitable. It's a cash grab. They refused my payout of just under $3,000 based on fabricated excuses. Firstly, the inactivity rule applies for more than 30 days - my account was only over 20 days old, so that was impossible. Then they alleged that I copied and traded on someone else's account using my funded account. I do not know any other traders especially in this prop firm. I'm a solo trader based in the UK, and I have never copied anyone. At the time, I had 3 accounts, all funded. Once they refused my payout, I stopped trading with them altogether. I also asked for details of my alleged breach and submitted a subject access request under UK law to obtain my personal information, which they are obliged to share. I never got a reply, which makes this firm incompatible with UK legislation. I am going to report them to UK authorities - hopefully they will ban them and fine them here. Also, if you try to complain or discuss on Discord, they will mute you. So don't bother - just use another more reputable firm instead.

Dear Goat Funded Trader Compliance Team,

I am writing this message to provide a full and detailed explanation regarding the IP activity that was detected on my account, and to clarify everything related to my trading behavior, internet usage, and device activity.

First of all, I would like to clearly confirm that I am the sole owner and only user of this account. I have never shared my account credentials with anyone, nor have I allowed any third party to access or trade on my behalf. All trading activity has been performed manually by me only, using my personal mobile phone.

I fully understand the importance of maintaining fair trading conditions and complying with your rules, and I respect all your policies regarding account security, IP consistency, and prohibited trading practices.

Now I would like to explain in detail the situation that caused the IP inconsistency between Djelfa and Algiers within a short time frame.

During my normal trading activity, I use two different internet connections depending on availability and stability:

1. My home Wi-Fi connection.
2. My mobile data connection (Mobilis 4G).

Both connections are used on the same personal device (my mobile phone). I switch between them naturally depending on signal strength, internet stability, or connection quality. This switching is not done to hide location or manipulate any system, but simply as part of normal daily internet usage in my area.

Because of this switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data, my public IP address changes frequently. As a result, the geolocation assigned to these IP addresses by external databases may show different cities.

In my case, one IP was recorded as Djelfa, while another was recorded as Algiers within a very short timeframe of approximately 4 minutes.

However, I would like to clarify that:

- I did NOT physically move between these two locations during that time.
- I remained in the same physical place while trading.
- The difference in location is purely due to IP geolocation inaccuracies and routing differences between internet service providers in Algeria.

To further investigate this issue myself, I personally checked my IP location using different devices:

- On my computer connected to Wi-Fi, the IP location showed one city.
- On my mobile phone using the same Wi-Fi network, the location showed a slightly different city.
- On mobile data (Mobilis 4G), the IP location showed yet another city.

This clearly demonstrates that IP geolocation is not always accurate and can vary depending on the network provider and routing path used by the ISP. In Algeria, mobile network IPs are often dynamically assigned and may be registered under different cities even when the user is physically in the same location.

I would also like to emphasize that:

- I do NOT use any VPN service.
- I do NOT use any VPS or remote server.
- I do NOT use any proxy or IP masking tool.
- I do NOT share my account with anyone.
- I do NOT use any automated trading systems or copy trading tools.

All trading activity is fully manual and executed only by me.

I understand that your system flagged this activity due to security and compliance checks, and I respect your due diligence in ensuring fair usage of the platform. However, I kindly request a full review of this case considering the technical nature of mobile IP geolocation inconsistencies.

If necessary, I am fully willing to provide any additional proof you may require, including:

- Device information and screenshots
- Mobile network details (Mobilis 4G)
- Wi-Fi router information
- Any further verification required to confirm my location consistency

I assure you once again that there was no rule violation, no malicious activity, and no attempt to manipulate the system in any way.

I kindly ask for your understanding and a fair review of this situation, as I am committed to following all rules and maintaining a transparent and consistent trading record.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response and hope for a positive resolution.

Kind regards,

Worst prop firm ever .. please spare your time, energy and money

Proof of Genuine Customer Experience & Technical Dispute

Company Name: Goat Funded Trader

My Account ID: 314936286

Platform Ticket/Order Reference: #106385890 (NAS100 Short Position)

I am a verified customer of Goat Funded Trader, and my review is entirely genuine. I am currently locked in a documented technical dispute regarding an illegitimate platform execution error on my account.

The Premature Execution Glitch:
I held a Short position on NAS100. My Stop Loss (SL) was explicitly set at 30,489.56. The platform backend prematurely executed a buy-back liquidation order at 30,474.97—which is 14.59 points EARLY. The trade was forced closed deep inside a candle body without price action ever touching my actual SL.

Pre-Emptive Rebuttal to Standard "Slippage / Spread" Excuses:
To prevent the company from using generic automated responses to mislead Trustpilot compliance:

Not Slippage: Slippage occurs when an order fills at a worse price due to market gaps after a trigger is hit. It is mathematically impossible for "slippage" to trigger a Stop Loss 14.59 points before the price ever reaches the modification level.

Not Spread Widening: The 14.59-point distance drastically exceeds standard high-liquidity index spreads on NAS100 during active sessions.

Evidence of Customer Suppression:
Instead of routing this to an engineer, the company's live web chat blocked my IP, and their Discord staff issued a 24-hour community timeout on my account 'Hunterx' to delete my public posts and hide this server glitch. I have attached full MT5 logs and proving this censorship.

This review represents a real, verified, unresolved platform failure and bad-faith customer service.

3 Payouts requested all 3 of them denied even all the rules were respected , accusation? IP Discrepancies the total of the amount requested was 15k$ + over 3 100k accounts

My experience have been the worst on gft, they add big spreads without even mentioning explicitly and not even the chart shows the spread, your order just gets filled above with a big gap.
And when I emailed them they didn't even give a response.

The worst propfirm to ever exist so far, they closed my winning trade, I never breached any of their rules, my sl was not even near their close price, the time the trade was closed and the price at that current time don't match either. The trade did not have any floating loss until I hit to yet they closed my trade with a loss.
They are scammers.

I purchased a $1,000 Instant Funded Account on June 3, 2026. My payment was successfully charged, but I did not receive an order confirmation email, order number, account credentials, or dashboard access.

I contacted support and was told that my case had been escalated and that I would receive a response within approximately 12 hours. However, more than 21 hours have passed without any update.

The lack of communication and delay in resolving a paid order has been very disappointing. I hope the company improves its customer support response times and order processing procedures.

I received an email on May 14th denying my payout and closing my account with a false accusation of copy trading. The “proof” they sent me was a spreadsheet with my trades being the originating trades and the “copies” not even being copied. Different lot sizes/times/entry and exit prices. I reached out for review from the risk team on May 14, May 18, May 22, and May 28. No response as of today June 4th. I have never copy traded and it seems that since my payout was a significant amount they just did not want to pay out.

I bought a 1$ account yesterday but the…
I bought a 1$ account yesterday but the sent me an email regarding the unsuccessful purchase only when I successfully paid already

UPDATE (June 11): It has been over 3 working days since I submitted my exact account details and full manual trading logs showing completely different entries, SL, and TP. The firm has completely ignored the case and provided zero response. Absolute lack of transparency and support!
I am extremely disappointed with Goat Funded Trader. My 10K Paylater account and 5K account were falsely flagged by their automated system for a copy trading breach. This is a 100% false positive error; all my trades were executed manually, with completely different entry prices, sizes, and timestamps. I submitted undeniable manual trading logs and screenshots as absolute proof to their risk team, but live support completely ignored my case.

I submitted undeniable manual trading logs and screenshots as absolute proof to their Risk Team via email over 12 days ago. Since then, it has been total radio silence. I escalated this issue twice via live chat; first, Moses.E confirmed a formal escalation, and yesterday, another agent simply told me to 'exercise patience' and abruptly closed the chat on my face without providing any updates.
GFT claims to support traders, but ignoring an honest customer who has provided clear proof for almost two weeks is unacceptable. I demand a human compliance manager look into my case, review my emails, and restore my accounts immediately.
(Note for GFT Support: My registered email starts with 'muhzeeshan...' and my accounts end in ...4716 and ...8717. Please check your system and reach out to me via email.)"

Nice prop to trade on, great and fast support too. Small spreads and good price for any type of challenge.

​🚨 PUBLIC SCAM ALERT: Goat Funded Trader Fabricated My Trading Logs to Evade a $1,000 Payout Delay Penalty!
​
​I am posting this as an urgent warning to retail traders worldwide. Do NOT trust Goat Funded Trader with your capital.
They look professional when you are losing challenges, but the exact moment you are compliant, profitable, and qualify for their heavily advertised $1,000 Payout Delay Bonus, their Risk Team will manually step in, manipulate your database records, and delete your legitimate profits to evade paying you.
​Here is the step-by-step, irrefutable blueprint of how they scammed my account (414320308) this week to avoid losing their own marketing race against the clock:
​1. My Payout Was Fully Approved & Accepted via Rise
​I requested a profit payout of $186.19 on a Thursday. My account successfully cleared all primary compliance filters, resulting in an official Rise payout invitation accepted by their external payment handler, Wishes Tower International.
​According to written chat transcripts with their support agent, Joel, a Rise invitation is only generated after the Risk Team completes its review and clears the account for payout. To arbitrarily reverse and block a finalized transfer after it has been accepted by an external financial intermediary is a severe violation of operational regulations.
​2. Retaliation to Evade the $1,000 Processing Guarantee
​Goat Funded Trader publicly promises a contractually binding $1,000 Compensation Reward if a payout takes longer than 2 business days to hit your account.
​On Monday evening, that deadline officially expired, meaning Goat Funded Trader legally owed me a total of $1,186.19 ($186.19 profit + $1,000 penalty reward). To stop the clock and avoid paying this penalty, their Risk Team waited until the final hours of the deadline to transmit a manufactured compliance audit, attempting to force an unauthorized "account reset."
​3. Forensic Proof of Fabricated Data & MT5 Server Log Manipulation
​A forensic analysis of my raw MetaTrader 5 server logs utterly destroys the Risk Team's fake compliance case:
​Deceptive History Grouping: To invent a rule violation out of thin air, their Risk Team grouped my completely independent market entries executed minutes and hours apart across entirely different intervals and deceptively labeled them as "simultaneous execution".
​The Mathematical Absurdity of the Margin Audit: Their audit claims that Ticket 15932732 utilized 86.53% of available margin. The raw server data completely exposes this as a lie: my position was a single, tiny 0.09 lot trade on Gold (XAUUSD) on a $5,000 account balance! On the MT5 architecture, it is structurally and mathematically impossible for a 0.09 lot trade to consume 86% margin on an account of that size. Furthermore, MT5 held this trade cleanly for over two hours without triggering a single automated margin warning or stop-out, proving the account was in perfect health.
​Unauthorized Profit Scraping: In a desperate bid to clear the account equity, their team manually scraped and deleted $729.32 of my independent, valid, winning trades executed between May 22 and May 27.
​🚨 MY FINAL TRADER VERDICT:
​Goat Funded Trader uses their "$1,000 Payout Delay Reward" as a cheap marketing gimmick to bait traders into signing up. The second a trader actually wins and forces them to pay that delay bonus, they will literally alter your MT5 server history, claim fake margin numbers, and wipe your balance.
​I have left my MT5 terminal completely untouched and have submitted a formal Merchant Fraud & Bad-Faith Transaction Reversal file directly to the compliance and fraud departments at Rise Banking and Wishes Tower International to flag their platform's merchant accounts.
​Traders beware: Your profits are never safe here. The moment you make money, the rules change, and they will rewrite your trade history to steal it back. Avoid this prop firm at all costs!

Hello Support Team,

I recently purchased a Goat Funded Trader account and the payment was successful. Unfortunately, I accidentally entered the wrong email address during registration.

I have proof of payment and can provide my order ID, transaction ID, and payment receipt for verification.

I have tried reaching customer support but have not received any response yet. Since I am unable to access my account details, I would appreciate it if you could urgently update my email address to the correct one and resend any account credentials or confirmation emails.

Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your prompt response.

Best regards,
Ankur Gupta

I raised complaint 3times but didn't get any resolution,but now when I complained for time I got assigned to "Smith"and he gave good assistance and resolved issue quickly.
Huge thanks to "smith" and giving full stars because of"Smith".

Banned me for no reason just an email, this firm and Edwardwnker are scammers

I bought a 1$ account yesterday but the sent me an email regarding the unsuccessful purchase only when I successfully paid already

I bought two 5k accounts,the payment went through but I received an email saying my payment was unsuccessful.
Now the other issue is the agents that are supposed to help are useless and doesn’t even care to respond .i talked to the agent and he responded to my message after 6 hours when I didn’t respond he closed the session (like I’m supposed to watch the chat until he respond) I requested to talk to another person no response .
In conclusion this is a BS company NOT as legit as it seems and I regret not seeing other’s reviews
