Next Step Funded Reviews 885

This Firm Is 100% Scam, This firm is nothing but a waste of time, the have declined my payout 3 times in a row which I did follow or the rules correctly in my two step funded account and not even the HFT program, they always comes out with a reason not to pay you your hard earned profit, stay away from nextstep funding 🚨🚨🚨🚨

The worst PROP I have ever worked with, ordinary scammers, they add some non-existent rules over time and thus have an excuse to close your account, STRICTLY AVOID THIS PROP BECAUSE YOU WILL LOSE MONEY.

Absolute frauds, thieves and liars. They aren't paying anyone. Everyone's payout request is being denied. I have screenshots proving I did nothing to violate any rules. They are stealing everyone's money. Do not waste one penny on this scam of a company.

Btw, all the 5 star reviews on here are 100% fake.

you are scammer , you speak lie , why you change my rule without my permission , my strategy weekend hold so i buy weekend hold allow so i work regular , if i wrong trade why you not warning ? i work 2 months after make withdrawl , and secondly any consistency rule only soft breach , and soft breach trades cut , why you scam and waste time , my time is free of cost

Don't waste your time, they don't pay, they are in a supposed migration that never ends and when you write them an email they never respond. I have proof, you can write me an email and I will give you the proof.

I recently had an extremely disappointing experience with Next Step Funded (NSF). After weeks of hard work and dedication on their Flash Funded account, I was accused of using HFT (High-Frequency Trading) or an EA (Expert Advisor)—both of which are blatantly untrue. I trade manually, and my strategy fully complied with their rules.

What’s worse is that I previously reached out to their support team to confirm if my trading style was acceptable. I even received an email assuring me that I was following their rules and was "good to go." Yet, they terminated my account right before payout, claiming a violation without providing evidence.

This lack of transparency and professionalism is exactly why NSF holds a **2.9-star rating on Trustpilot**. It’s unacceptable to treat customers this way, especially those who have proven their skills and put in the effort. NSF wasted my time, energy, and potential earnings.

I strongly caution anyone considering trading with this firm. They do not honor their agreements and will find excuses to deny payouts.

I wish I could give 0 stars because I am still in pain.

This company will not pay you if you make enough money. They will always find excuses as to why you broke their rules.

If they can't find any rule that you broke, they will lie and say that you copy-traded and breached your account. That is what they did to me.

No more discord support and they are not replying to my emails.

As usual back to remind you this company is a scam.After my troubles with them there support is becoming non existent day by day ,discord support has been inactive for sometime nw, and bad reviews keep increasing. Any good reviews its their support trying to keep afloat.

Be smart and look for reputable propfirms etc ftmo ,5ers

Otherwise this wannabe hft account propfirms cant last.

My funded account is gone. I requested for my payout and theres no reply after. Support ticket created but no use. Also on the dashboards it says i have to pass the challenge. I was warned about this firm before, but i paid the prize. Please dont buy from them !!!

Total scammers. Don’t buy from them. I purchased an account with crypto payment 7 days ago and still haven’t received it. The dashboard shows 'Payment Failed,' but NowPayments (their payment gateway) confirmed the payment went through. I've contacted their support email multiple times over the past week with no response, and their Discord has no chat or support channels.

Please think twice and save your money.

Jalel abou and his company NSF (or whatever new company he creates out of thin air) are scammers, do not trust them or him you will loose your money he promised money and didn’t even trade the money straight up stole money.

Feel free to message me I have many screenshots of the accounts and fake copy trades, and the way he communicates with his customers.

I passed HFT and got funded a 50k account. Then in one month the equity reached 75k. with a max dd of 0.5%. So I was hoping to get paid the 60% of 25k. They denied the payment based on consistency breach rule. I never got the evidence of it of course. Apparently is more important to have the same amount of trades week by week. HFT is a software and you can't decide every week to execute the same number of trades. The market conditions are not the same therefore the AI does not open the same amount of trades. Useless rule. It supposed to be part of risk management. I made constant profit with no DD. They lost the big picture here. In my view they should have made me a proposal to pay me at least a part of it. They lost a client and probably more than one.

Thanks for the reply but again you are not providing any proof that I breahed the rule. Then you can decide who to pay and who not, sitting behind your rule. Not a serious company.

Update today 16/03/2025

Don't trust this company going to close.

No reponse from support for more then 3 month,my request still pending for 3 months

Bought a MT4 HFT Account but that got transitioned to a MT5 HFT Account with the migration.
Whats the difference? 2 additional rules to follow. No refund, no same rules applied. Feels like they just did to restrict the trader even more.

Do not use this company! You will be donated your evaluation fee. Even if you pass you will never get a pay out. New consistency rules seems like money, fake “copy trading” when when I wasn’t. They will never pay you

Biggest scam company was denied payout they removed $1600 worth of profit from my account and have now put it back down to nothing.

Dont waste your time

My dear brother, Ido not know what your goal is. Do you want to understand the issue or not? You are still evasive with words. I tell you, I did not trade during the holiday. This is first. Secondly, the stock exchange’s working hours are clear. Or do you have a private stock exchange? I mentioned to you that if you have a private stock exchange, specify it again. Otherwise, as long as you have a stock exchange. Especially since there is manipulation of the platform on your part, but because you do not want to understand the matter, I asked you to confirm and prove to me that I traded within days. The holiday is Saturday and Sunday, and your company cannot prove it She either trained her members on such dodgy matters, or the person who checked the account is not good at his job. Likewise, your customer service is bad. If he does not like the topic, he does not respond. I asked to verify the work that was done and return the account to me. The amount you took is not insignificant, and this talk is not logical and does not indicate credibility. And the transparency that the company claims
You have distorted the words and the meaning. I demanded my right and you have the luxury of returning the right. Many have your complaints and I advise everyone not to use companies with the instant method because they are tiring and they do not have credibility, or rather they do not understand the meaning of trading and inventing methods to not give you your rights. This is my experience with this company. Quite simply, you could have returned the account. When there is a violation, the rest of the companies delete it. By the way, they zero the account and give the opportunity to deduct the transactions that you imagine are the end of the week.
You tell me the trading hours. The trading hours are clear when the Asian, European and American markets open. As for the Next Step company market, I have not heard of it on the stock exchange. They open the indexes during holidays and prohibit trading in them.

Great experience using Next Step Funded. Great platform. Hope to get more payouts in the future!

This firm is a scam
Do this for me. Filter the 5 star reviews first and read them and after that, filter the 1 star comments. Notice something? The 1 star comments seem more genuine than the 5 star reviews. Besides that 95% of the 5 star reviews only wrote 1 review. So imo the are trying to keep the score up. The reviews are 42/53. If this was a legit company the odds would be much different.

This firm lets you trade on their behalve. Only once you get funded the profit split is 100/0. With the 100% beïng for them. This is how they make money (and not you).

If you want to make next step funded rich, go ahead and take the challenge. But if you want to earn an extra income for yourself, i would recommand to go to another firm.

They probably gonna give me a bs answer to this, but i don’t even care. I made up my mind and i’m stepping away from this firm. I requested my first payout and it got denied because of copy trading. I use an EA that i programmed myself. So this is straight up bs. Just an excuse to not pay me.

I regret it rhat i didn’t come here before actually taking on the challenge. Because reading all these bad reviews would have changed my mind.

What a waste of time. Don’t get fooled and stay away from these scammers.

Since Nextstepfunded implemented MT5, it’s become clear that they’re more interested in catching people on minor mistakes than providing a reliable trading platform. They’ve introduced a rule set that is not only strict but also extremely unreasonable – even the smallest error can lead to immediate account deactivation. It feels like they’re just looking for excuses to kick users out and keep the money without delivering the service they promise.

There’s no fair chance to correct mistakes, and their so-called “support” is far from helpful. It’s frustrating to see how Nextstepfunded would rather profit from users’ missteps than actually support traders' success. No warnings, no clear explanations – just a cold deactivation notice for the slightest infraction, often caused by the unclear rules they haven’t even properly communicated.

If you’re considering using Nextstepfunded, think twice! They claim to support traders, but in reality, they’re just looking for ways to close accounts quickly. Save your money and time – find a platform that actually wants to see you succeed, not one that penalizes you for every minor mistake.
