I wrote a scathing review roughly one year ago, saxo is up to it's old tricks again this past few weeks, demanding information which would put a government mandated tax inspector to Shame, I provided all of the requested information a year ago and they unlocked my account, having frozen it for six weeks. In the end I withdrew 50% of my funds and moved to the infinitely Superior IBKR

They're not getting me to jump through their hoops a second time, I'll close my account altogether if they persist

Saxo used to be very good but have completely gone to the dogs

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your feedback. As we've explained in our previous replies, as a regulated firm, we're required to review client information periodically as part of our ongoing due diligence. This applies to all clients, and information provided in the past may need updating as circumstances and regulatory requirements change. It isn't something we're able to waive.

We're looking into your current review and will be in touch with you directly to clarify what's required and help you complete it quickly.

Kind regards,
Stuart

Divash Kumar was very helpful and persisted with my query until we had an answer. His two colleagues with whom I communicated yesterday were less diligent in finding the answers I needed.

This has been my experience with Saxo Group. It can take several calls/communications to get a correct answer. You need to be persistent! It would be good if everyone was as thorough as Davish.

Hi Sue, 

Thanks very much for the honest feedback – and for calling out Divesh by name.

I’m really pleased to hear he stuck with your query until you had a proper answer, but I’m equally sorry that your earlier contacts didn’t show the same level of diligence. You shouldn’t have to make several attempts to get things resolved, and your comment about needing to be “persistent” is exactly the sort of thing we want to stamp out. I’ll make sure your feedback is passed on so we can tighten things up across the board, not just when you happen to get someone like Divesh.

Since you’re a UK client, you might also be interested in our referral programme: if you refer a friend or family member to Saxo and they successfully open and fund an account, you can both receive £500 in commission credits. All the details of the current UK offer – who’s eligible and how it works – are in the “Refer a Friend” section on the platform or our website.

And if you ever feel you’re not getting a straight or complete answer, do shout – we’d rather fix it than have you chasing.

Best regards

Customer service from real people

Jaya has been helping me with various matters regarding my Saxo account. A real person (as opposed to nonsense AI agents) providing real help and guidance which is what you want from a trading platform support service. It saves you time, stress and money. When people say it’s the staff that make a business, it’s people like Jaya they’re talking about.

Jaya will be absolutely chuffed to bits to read this. It’s exactly the kind of feedback that makes all the early starts, late finishes and bottomless cups of coffee worth it. We’re firm believers that platforms and pricing matter, but it’s real people solving real problems that make the difference – so it’s brilliant to hear that Jaya’s support has saved you time, stress and a fair bit of money along the way.

Terrible, ridiculous amounts of endless ongoing KYC. When I decided to switch it took over 2-months to get my money out of the bank. Crazy. Avoid.

Hi Henry

Thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback, and I’m sorry to hear about your experience.

We don’t have enough information from this review to locate your account or understand exactly what happened in your case, especially why it took over two months for you to receive your funds. That timeline is not what we aim for, so I’d really like to review your specific situation in detail.

On your comment about “endless KYC”:

As an FCA‑regulated firm, we’re legally required to carry out customer due diligence under the UK Money Laundering Regulations and FCA rules (including SYSC and the Financial Crime Guide). This means we must:

- Verify customers’ identities and, where relevant, the source of funds/wealth.

- Keep information up to date over time (ongoing KYC), not just when the account is opened.
- Sometimes request additional documents if circumstances change or if earlier documents no longer meet regulatory standards.

We appreciate this can feel excessive from a client’s perspective, especially if you’re asked for documents more than once. However, we cannot release or transfer funds if required checks are incomplete or not satisfied – doing so would put us in breach of our regulatory obligations.

That said, the process should still be handled as efficiently and clearly as possible. If there were unnecessary delays or poor communication in your case, we’d like to understand where and fix it.

Please contact me directly so we can look into this properly:

Email: stuh@saxomarkets.com
Phone: 0207 151 2033

If you’re comfortable doing so, please email me or call me on the number provided , where you can provide me with your account details so I can review your file, explain exactly what caused the delay, and see what we can improve in our processes and communication going forward.

Best regards,
Stuart
