I have had a terrible experience with Icon FX. Withdrawals take forever, and their customer support is not helpful at all. I regret opening an account with them.

The platform is decent, but the lack of regulation makes me uneasy. I faced several issues with my withdrawals, and it took a long time to get any response from support.
