Thread: Is it normal for a broker to ask for a credit card on the phone?

  1. #1
    I recently signed on 24Options, they madly spam that you calls in the midnight, their marketing egy are so aggressive, and you should not look at passing out your contact number, once I picked up the phone, he simply keep repeating you must deposit now, or I will close your account, and ask me for bank card detail over the phone, I didn't have the phone calls record that I need to install some apps on my android later, but I don't think I have similar chances again.

    Is this normal? They want your Credit Card! Not on web!
    I give up on them, I'll discover other broker, anyone of you has a recommended binary choices broker?
    I'm conscious of Google Top 10s, but they're consider not responsible inspection, most likely fake inspection to generate leads.

    24Option sound rubbish.

    Personally, I really don't trade Binary Options because I have a hard enough time picking the right direction without the extra complexity of limited time frame. However, If I did I'd go with IG who I've traded FX with earlier. They're most likely one of the very honest bucket stores, and without the aggressive sales phone bothersome.

    Strange, it looks like they just want your money and will push you trade more and more . . Good to know.

    No, asking for confidential data such as that over the phone is not normal. Based on where you're it might not be legal. You should also keep in mind that https://smnweekly.com/2016/08/01/amf...option-france/ for not complying with professional obligations. Be cautious when working together.

    Have you tried to make a formal request to remove you from their cold call list? This ought to work I am almost sure.
    Or through another call make a request to remove you from their database, make a record of this call and in the event of additional calls out of their side you are able to document a case to the courtroom for unsolicited offers or something like that.

    I did not ask but they still madly crap call me every single day even tho he stated I shall close your account by Friday if you don't create a deposit these guys are crazy.

    So do you really think I need to? Document the phone? They wasted 30min of my own time and he asked what card I am using, I told him Debit card and he's pissed off.

    You could block the number, not accept the calls. I made the mistake of giving a Cypriot forex broker my phone number once. NEVER AGAIN! But my phone at least tells me that a call is coming from Cyprus and that I simply don't accept it. I mean I don't have that many Cypriot friends calling me hehehe.

    In my view giving credit card information over the phone to any one can be really quite vulnerable.

    I did utilize an progr to block their incoming calls numbers, about 6 of these, yes 6 of these.
    However they turn, and utilize Unknown or hidden number, which they're very sensible to HAUNT you with calls.
    And you can't block them. Seriously, I don't recommend broker which, Comes connect the lucky club
