its nice to see the new mumbers of the site getting together and sharing their experiences.
It seems to be a common theme between you all that you dont trust the companies you use to trade and this is going to mess with your heads.
Its very important in trading to take full responcibility for your actions and results, the sooner you do this the quicker you will climb the learning ladder.
If you are serious about trading and seriously dont trust the platform that you are using may i suggest that you open CFD accounts instead.
This will eliminate your fear of been done over by the spreadbet firm.
CFDs are regulated by the fsa so therefore no funny business leaaving you with only 1 place to look if it goes tits up (yourself).
I trade with cmc with a cfd account and although i have heard many similer stories to what you have described about their spreadbet platform i have never experienced these problems with their CFD platform.
Another advantage is that if trading non uk instruments eg us indices the minimum contract size is 1 cfd equal to $1 a point roughly 50p so you can get more trades in with less risk.
Good luck to all of you and welcome to T2W
