“Same story as the other unsatisfied customers. Although my profits showed over 70,000$ USD, they want me (John Campbell) to pay a commission of almost 4,000$ USD and then they would release my money. They think I am stupid ! It would make a lot more sense for main-bit to take the commission out of the profit that I made and send me the balance. John told me that is not how it works. I might have lost some money in this scheme (money that I sent to open my account) but they sure won’t get another penny from me.”
“Main bit is formerly called Sigmabanc. I got scammed by them. I lost about $47,000 which I deposited with the hopes of making profit. It took me a long time before I met againstcon,,com which helped me get my money from mainbit. Stay away from sigmabanc and mainbit.”
“Massive scam ! This company has scammed us out of $100,000 . Don’t believe anything they tell you! We wanted to withdraw our initial investment, so they told us to close our account. Then they told us we had to pay $27,000 in commission and fees to be able to do that.
We negotiated to just pay $13,500 for the broker fee as a guy in the finance dept called David agreed to waive the blockchain and conversion fees . We paid the $13,500 broker fee and then we were passed to a guy called John Campbell who was suppose to send our money. He then told me that the Bitcoin had increased in our account so we needed to pay another $3000 in fees . I paid that money to him and then he said that he couldn’t send the money to the cryptocurrency exchange account because it was too larger sum and that he would wire it to my bank. I gave him the wire details for an account I don’t use and he sounded disappointed and asked why I hadn’t given him the details for the account for my everyday banking. He asked me if I wanted the money sending in CAD so I agreed and then he said I now had to pay another conversion fee for doing that . I paid another $2000 for those fees and was expecting the money to be wired.
He then said a guy called Rafael would talk to me first and explain about the tax implications . I thought this was to tell me how to file it on my tax return . Oh no ! This Rafael claimed he was from the CRA and that I needed to pay tax on the money before it would be released. At this point I realized it was all a complete scam and Rafael put the phone down on me when I confronted him.
Fast forward a week and I received a call yesterday from David in the finance dept asking me what’s going on as my money is still sat in the blockchain. I told him I had paid John Campbell even more money last week and that Rafael tried to get me to pay taxes on it. He said that didn’t sound right and that he was going to pass me back to John Campbell .
When talking to John Campbell he tried to dismiss what he had said previously about the taxes and said that I don’t pay tax but I do need to pay 7.9% for blockchain fees. I told him I have no money as they have got everything and he called me a liar because I still have my home! After an extremely heated argument he put the phone down on me .
I sent an email to John Campbell , David in finance and the support dept saying I do not pay Blockchain fees up front to them or on top of the funds in my “ account” . I said I knew the blockchain and miners fees are deducted directly from the funds that are sent and that they have no reason to send my money as I have paid all of the fees ( there obviously isn’t any money ) . I haven’t had a response from anyone yet but they do not seem to work on a Friday.
I have registered this scam with the police, Canada Anti-Fraud dept , and various provincial security commissions. The brokers names that I have dealt with are David James, Frank White, John Marks , Chris Allen , David in finance , John Campbell and Rafael. They will fleece you for every penny , convince you to use lines of credit , credit cards, pension funds and even try to get you to refinance your home , DON’T DO IT ! You will loose everything to these sumbags. This is a huge international scam , they are operating all over the world , the BC Securities Commission told me that today .”
“Liars scammer bullies
Liars, Liars, Liars with no professional ethics
Liars, Liars, Liars with no professional ethics.
I took to writing this review, because my partner cannot close the account with MainBit. The story started early last year. Very good communication to start up with , however the communication was only to ask for more money and not nicely. When more money were not sent the traders which I will name a bit later started with bullying and threatening behaviour ( Giovanni Federa), blocked the trading account, threaten to sue us and send the police and take whatever interest percentage they decide off of the profit ( Chris something , some financial director at MainBit)
As such, the decision was made to close the account in September 2022. Since then nothing happened and they are still requesting money for traders fee (Giovani and now Max, who even swore on his children that he will close the account and transfer the funds after such and such amount is being transferred) or the money got stuck in blockchain ( Max). All sorts of excuses and account still not closed, funds still not transferred.
Ana which requested more money , yet again, to close the account, after the funds were sent, put on hold and then dropped. Two days later being called again to pay the governmental taxes to release the funds.
The MainBit traders that we dealt with so far and they were a few , proved to be liars, shamefully inducing you in error, promising the stars and the moon before getting funds and doing nothing after. Scammers ,Liars,Bullies.”

“Warning, scam. Wanted me to take massive loans to fund events, but would continue to give me the time of day or manage my account when I would not add more funds. I expressed this is fine but wanted to. Close my account and reclaim what was in the green. They refused to credit back my equity or close my account and they let it run down to minus.
Beware rouge traders with bully tactics.

“I'd heard about their unusually rapid rate of execution before, but I didn't mind.
And yet, I made up my mind to work with this broker.
Slow trade execution with my previous broker pushed me over the edge to switch.”
“I only need one month to determine whether or not this broker is legit. After a month of trading with this broker, I can confidently state that it is not risky. Of sure, you can lose money due to a bad market forecast, but you can lose even more if the project is fake. I didn't notice anything strange here. It does a good job. I don't have to be concerned and can concentrate on other things.”
“The MB staff is always available and does a great job. Customer service is very important to me, so I'm giving them an A. (5 stars). Over the years, I've told many traders about MB, and most of them still use it today.”
“Finally, I've found the right broker.... I was a beginner looking for something straightforward. I was always baffled by the complicated charts and scribbles. When I went to the platform, everything seemed simple to me (I'd previously used a web platform by one binary option broker).”
“I would strongly recommend this broker to anyone looking for a good deal with minimal stress. Registration, verification, and payment are all completed within 24 hours. I had no idea brokers from other countries could be this good. It's fantastic.”
“I've been trading with MB for over 13 months and can attest that it's a good broker. It's been an interesting experience because there have been some ups and downs. However, the bad times have been my undoing. MB's platform has been rock solid, and no one should underestimate it.”
“I've had the account on the MB platform for two years, so it's time to give the broker some feedback. Since I began using their platform, I've had a lot of success. In contrast to what many brokers do to us, I can say that this is a broker that does not trade against its traders. My orders are completed exactly how I want them and at the prices I want. Orders are filled quickly and with little or no slippage. I've made several large withdrawals to my cryptocurrency wallet with no problems. All of the processes on this platform are simple and straightforward. Nothing beats trading with a broker who makes everything simple. I can't say enough good things about this broker.”
“The pace of execution has been superb - I always consider part lots execution speed are the sign of a reputable broker. The spread could be significantly impacted because many liquidity providers are able to handle multiples of complete lots, but a much lesser number accept part lots (particularly as little as 0.01). But I haven't found any drawbacks to MB yet.”
“I've used MB for the past year, and out of the eight brokers I've dealt with, they're by far the finest. Service to customers is superb. It is difficult to find a trustworthy broker.”
“Only bank transfers and credit cards are accepted for my account. Personally, that is all I require, but I believe many traders would prefer more options. Perhaps adding Paypal/Skrill would be beneficial.”
