Never use Avatrade, you'll regret it.

Whatever you do, don't use this trading platform! I've recently opened an account with Avatrade. After going through the process of verifying my account, I wanted to deposit funds, only to discover that my bank doesn't support transfers to Avatrade (which should have been my forst red flag). I spoke to a customer support agent who said that I have to open and fund an "Ozow" account in order to work around the bank issue. This took another 4 days to get verified. I went about trying to deposit my Avatrade account using my newly created and funded Ozow account, only to find that they still requested I choose which bank I use, of which my bank was not an option. A total waist of time and money, seeing as these transactions are charged. I just finished speaking to two other customers support agents, the first of who was extremely rude and dropped the chat. The second was a bit less rude and after a lot of back and forth, explaining that Ozow doesn't work they suggested I open an "Neteller" account this time to work around the bank issue. This is obviously going to cost more time and money as I again have to do verifications and transfers. Worst part is that this too might be for nothing, but I won't know untill I go through the hassle of creating an account. And to add to the frustration, their app keeps crashing every few seconds. Worst experience with a trading platform I've ever had.
