I had a frustrating experience with withdrawals. After initiating a withdrawal request, I faced multiple delays and customer support was unhelpful in resolving my issues. I couldn’t get clear answers, which is quite concerning given the unregulated status of this broker.

DBS offers a solid trading platform with good features for both beginners and experienced traders. The mobile app is easy to use, and I appreciate the variety of investment tools available. However, I do wish they had better regulatory oversight for added security.

I had a terrible experience trying to withdraw my funds. They claimed I needed to pay additional fees, which was unexpected and frustrating. The lack of regulation makes me question the safety of my investment. I would not recommend this broker.
