I have been using Saxo since 2019 as it was recommended by my brother. As a new investor back then, I thought it will be quite overwhelming. But the learning curve for me was rather easy. Saxo's user interface is straightforward and intuitive. Everything was so smooth from opening an account, depositing my funds, and to buying my first stocks. Financial literacy is also a plus for me. With Saxo, I am able to access webinars and articles in order for me to gain insights to trends and outlook shared by their in-house analysts. I must say that this is really helpful in order for me to navigate and stay ahead of the global markets. Also, not forgetting the customer support system of Saxo. Professionalism is always 100%. They are quick to respond to my queries and very patient to explain terms I find hard to digest. I'm so glad to have Saxo as my first ever brokerage account. My friends tried to recommend me other cheaper alternatives, but I don't really see the need to create another one. Investing is indeed fun and fulfilling when you know you are in the right platform, and everything investment-related is available here at Saxo. I will truly recommend it to first-time and seasoned investors. Thank you Saxo for the great work!1

Unreliable and Limited The platform is to some extent good; however, if you need to chat with the agent and receive support it is very challenging. The chat can be open for 5 min at most..and then it restarts and you end up speaking with 10 agents before you can only address your problem. I never solved one so far. Saxo Bank is also very unreliable. They change margins, fees and their interpretation of regulation without any previous communication and as they seem appropriate, usually on client's damage. They also never send you a name or a link to the regulation they are enforcing. Especially if you are a non EU citizen, avoid it. There are many other platforms in the US which are more reliable and less costly than SAXO. Do a better research. This is a branded mamut which will not survive the New Age.

I have been trying for a month to deposit a substantial amount of money with them through my pension. They only have messaging chat and ignore most messages, taking days to respond and even then with incorrect or unhelpful information. The most recent thing is that, after a month, and returning the money twice, they now say it is a KYC issue but have given a) no way to resolve it b) no number to call and c) no further information. I have been left trying to message them and being ignored. Genuinely the worst customer experience I have ever had with a financial company and that is saying something.0

I have been using Saxo since 2013, it was recommended by a friend. The customer service was great and they helped me set up my account with ease. The commision rates, market access and products offered is what attracted me to the platform. The user interface was simple to use and helpful guides makes using the platform easy and simple to understand. Great platform and easy to use.0

What are your thoughts? - Started using them in 2008/2009. Pros: Wide range of products , decent customer service. Cons : High cost of withdrawals and transfer of stock counters, high cost for deposit for non local currency. unable to accept cheque deposits for USD and other currencies. US stocks commissions are average at best. HK, UK, Europe markets are crazy expensive. custodian fees are high ? ( if other brokerage is offering it free ) Looking to switch

Hi Jme,
Thank you for your feedback. Your concerns are valid and Saxo takes them into consideration when we constantly work to improve our platform and product offering to all clients.
We offer up to 4 sub-accounts in different currencies for all clients. You can instantly transfer funds in SGD via Paynow or FAST to your Saxo SGD account, this is free of charge. Then do a Sub Account Transfer to your non local currency sub-account instantly. Currency conversion for sub-account transfers are at a very competitive rate of 0.3%. If you are looking to transfer funds in other currencies, this is via a Telegraphic Transfer where your bank will charge you a TT fee and it will take 2-5 business days.
We have recently introduced our New Pricing Plans which allow you to save costs and earn commission credits, depending on which plan you upgrade yourself to. See Pricing Plans here: https://www.home.saxo/en-sg/accounts/plans
You can also waive or halve your custody fees when you opt in to Securities Lending on your Saxo account. Details here: https://www.home.saxo/en-sg/accounts/securities...Kind regards,
