Adriatex well it closed and closed, the money was stuck there since the end of sixteen. The lawyers from this outfit... the firm’s name is Wexcel, seems so from the papers. They dragged their feet a long time but got my segregated assets back. Not everything. Only the part that was on a separate wallet. The insolvency estate is still litigating somewhere in Italy or wherever the bankruptcy is going, I’m not interested. Got about 34,825.76 euros out of the forty thousand. Fine. Would’ve been five stars if they’d answered emails faster, but they go silent for weeks.

I ran into fraud at the Whitlock Trading Academy and lost a significant sum. The lawyers at Wexcel Law took on the case when the FCA issued a decision to fine the firm. They managed to recover £14,045. That’s less than my full losses, since part of the transactions didn’t fall uder the regulator’s compensation criteria, but it’s a result. The work was done professionally. The paperwork went through first time, which matters to me. The everyday problems from losing the money have eased a bit, I was at least able to finish repairing the car.

Well, for Pennine Capital Markets everything was paid back, though I waited a long timme. The FSCS erturned 100 percent of 18 thousand pounds. The firm worked properly, though the girl on the phone was somehow cold. On the whole not bad, in Poland there are no such firms.

I'm 74, from Valencia, and for forty years I sewed to order. This is the first review of my life – I'm dictating it to my daughter, she's typing. For almost three years the company AlvoraCapital wouldn't release my payout: it cited "suspicious transfers", over which the regulator took action against it. The lawyers found out these were ordinary tax payments made by the company itself, and that had been confirmed even before the freeze. That stupidity angered me more than the loss itself. When payouts rsumed, Ms Whitfield checked the list the way I check a sea – stitch by stitch – and my confirmed request was on it. In May, 28,802 euros came. Until now only my dau gher knew about any of this. I'm writing so that I can stop keeping silent.

I will remember the comparison with the seam. Keep well.

They got back 832 euros. Spent: a year, some twenty emails, two trips to a notary and my nerves. Formally there's a reslt. In human terms it wasn't worth it. I'm not writing this to smear the firm but so that someone with a sum this small stops to think whether they need it.

Yesterday I reconciled the statement for the third time: 85,000 of the 86,479 pounds from the FSCS have arrived. ms Pemberton, thank you for answering my repeated questions about clauses 6.3 and 9.1 of the contract. They named the price at the very first meeting, 10 percent and nothing hidden, I asked twice. I’m ashamed to admit it, but after that broker I check everything — even those who helped me.

Writing tis for my dad, he asked me to. There was a court case against VertexFX, restitution was ordered, 25 thousand euros came back. Dad is very happy with the lawyers’ work.

Thank you for recovering 12,760 euros from the Vantera Group platform. it was a fake broker, I was deceived over the phone by guys from Balkan call centers telling me about investments. The trial took place in Leeds, where the fraudsters’ property was seized. The lawyers helped me get the money from a special fund after an auction where these scum’s confiscated cars were sold. All honest, even if I waited a long time. Soon I’ll finish the kitchen renovation, the money came just in time.

The broker blocked the withdrawal, witohut any explanation. I work night shifts at the car plant, I couldn't call during the day – the Wexcel lawyers handled everything by email. After a month it was all over, the money in my account. Thank you.
