Decent execution, but the back office feels dated

I’m Ahmed from Dubai and I’ve been trading mainly major FX pairs and a bit of gold. My overall experience with FXNet has been solid on spreads and execution during normal market hours. I’m on MT4 and orders generally go through without drama, which is what I care about most. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is the client portal/back-office side. It works, but it feels a bit old-fashioned and I had to click around to find basic things like statement exports and fee details. Also, funding is fine but not as smooth as some newer brokers I’ve used. Support was polite when I asked about account documents, but it took a couple of follow-ups to get a clear answer. Nothing alarming—just could be more streamlined.

Decent platform, but costs add up if you’re not careful

I’m Neha from Hyderabad and I’ve been using FXNet for about 6 months on a Standard account. The onboarding was smooth and I could verify my profile without too much back-and-forth. The platform itself feels stable and I didn’t face major crashes, but I did notice that spreads/fees can make a difference during active sessions, especially around news. Execution is okay for my style (mostly intraday on majors), but I wouldn’t call it “super tight” all the time. Deposits worked fine for me and were credited reasonably quickly. Withdrawals did go through, but one time it took longer than I expected and I had to check in with support to confirm the status. Support was polite and did respond, though not instantly. Overall it’s usable and I’ll keep it as a secondary account, but I’m more cautious now about trading during volatile windows because the total cost can creep up.

Decent execution, but the portal feels outdated

I’m Khalid from Al Ain (UAE) and I’ve been using FXNet mainly for EURUSD and gold on a Standard account. Execution is generally fine for my swing trades and I didn’t notice anything unusual with fills during normal market hours. Spreads are acceptable, but around news they widen more than I expected, so I avoid entering during high-impact releases. The main downside for me is the client area—it feels a bit old-fashioned and it takes extra clicks to find basic things like statements and account history. Support answered my questions, but I had to follow up once to get a clearer explanation about overnight fees. Overall it’s usable and I can trade without drama, but it doesn’t feel as smooth as some newer platforms I’ve tried.

Stable MT4 fills but the dashboard feels dated

I’m Fatima from Abu Dhabi and I’ve been trading mostly EUR/USD and gold on a Standard account for about 6 months. Overall the execution has been consistent for my small position sizes and I haven’t had random disconnects during London open, which matters to me. Deposits by card went through without drama and the balance updated quickly. Withdrawals did arrive, but not as fast as I expected on the first request and I had to double-check my banking details in the portal because the layout isn’t very clear. Support was polite and answered my questions about leverage and swap rates, but the replies were sometimes a bit templated. If they modernize the client area and make the funding pages clearer, I’d rate it even higher.

Smooth platform, but fees are a bit hard to predict

I’m Omar from Sharjah and I’ve been using this broker on and off for about 6 months, mainly for EUR/USD and XAU/USD. The platform connection has been stable for me and orders usually go through without drama, which is the main reason I’ve kept the account open. What I didn’t like is that the total trading cost sometimes felt unclear until I compared my fills across a few sessions (spread changes + any extra charges). It’s not a deal-breaker, but I prefer when the costs are easier to estimate before I place a trade. Deposits were straightforward and credited quickly. Withdrawals did arrive, but not always as fast as I expected—still within a reasonable timeframe. Support was polite and answered my questions, but the replies sometimes felt like templates, so I had to ask follow-up questions to get a direct yes/no. Overall: decent experience, just wish the pricing and charges were a bit more transparent at a glance.
