Per default your account is at 100:1. You can request 500:1 easily via eMail - but only if your account size is <$5,000.

At the moment you get a deposit bonus of 10%: http://www.alpari.co.uk/en/company-news/245.html

This company's website look very unprofessional. No live chats and seems quite hard to contact them if anything happens. Does this company do withdrawals very quickly?

I don't know, who is ridiculous here.

Alpari has 1:500 leverage, but not for too big accounts. It's very easy to e-mail or call them and ask this simple question.

They are very prompt at responding (at least, this is my experience with Alpari UK, which is the topic of this thread).

Their withdrawals are within normal limits, it has never taken me more than 2-3 days.

And no, I don't work for Alpari UK.

Who is that muppet.

Alpari (UK) Limited are very good at withdrawls. I pay £15 for same day process and my money is always in my account. I have never had a problem getting my money. They are governed by the FSA. So, if you do have a problem, then just report them.

Just opened a live account with Alpari UK. Once they received the doc's my account was ready to receive deposit. I have deposited money via VISA credit card and the funds were in my trading account in 10 mins. Everything looks straight so far.

So you prefer bucket shops which have a great looking flash featured website?

Withdrawals are fast and always done without any problems. They take usually 1-2 days.

Sorry for question, but where you get info, that they accepted VISA credit card. I have account there for 1year, but till now i didn't see any info that they accept credit cards.
Thank you in advance.

P.S.
If any other know anything of that wold like to know.

They don't advertise this option, but it is available for citizens of EU and several other countries. You can call their rep. and ask for that.

It's tenths of a pip (note that they are using 3/5 decimal places). There are not many bucket shop brokers that allow orders as close to the price as Alpari.

lol, alpari should start paying me commission for defending them...

If it's only 3 pips, then I open account with them. They was my favourite, until I saw "30" pips Buy stop limit.

Thank you Ilanr

I do not know if it happens only to me but Alpari occasionally freezes.
Today for example, from 15.30 to 15.43 were blocked all the odds, and I had 4 open positions!
Every now hangs only a pair, more often GBPUSD.
I am not at all happy with Alpari, including the fact that it freezes, and that often there are days when one is not able to enter orders that you always requoted.

Hi LL
It froze for me today around 2 hrs ago. I have a live ac with them but don't use it for the reasons you state.I use the charts along with broco/whc , but trade with ig index. i had a requote this morning. first one in two weeks. alpari every other time. i think alot of that is to do with the 5 points instead of 4 . ok if your using ea but manual close is crap.

Something bad is happening to Alpari UK. It's not only that the platform was frozen, all their servers were down and the dealing desk couldn't close positions when called (if you were able to reach them at all - took me 5 minutes of busy lines). Recently, it's virtually impossible to open/close on market without requotes or some strange stuff (smth like "off quotes", I don't remember exactly) during normal markets (my max. deviation is set to 10 pipettes). The price feed, which was always quite reliable, now is frequently different from other reliable brokers'.

10 pippets is only 1 pip! You're basically sending Fill or Kill orders. My normal dev is 3 pip or 30 pipettes.
