{quote} Ic market refuses French customers, they refuse me
I am amazed that they refuse French customers! They certainly accept other EU clients (I am in the UK and have an account with them) and as I mentioned in an earlier post, they do not mention France as one of the excluded countries at the bottom of their homepage.

Anyone else have this problem?

Sorry to keep going on about this z.h., but France is not a OFAC sanctioned country! I don't mean to be cheeky, but maybe it's your nationality? Just an idea...

No way! That's such a shame!

Thanks for sharing your message z.h
I really hope this policy doesn't spread to other EU countries...

All the best in your trading

I am a bit confused as to why a French retail trader would be treated any differently to any other EU trader.

I have a friend who trades from France and I know he moved to an Australian broker after ESMA. I will ask him which one it was. I'm pretty sure he is still with them and is happy with the service.
