Hi I have been with CMC for a short while, but was recommended by a friend who had been for a quite a while, first the platform is state of art, I challenge anyone that can show me a better platform, the things that you can do on it are amazing and limitless, and the speed and time to execute an order is fraction of second, 2 days ago when Janet Yellen commented on the US market quoting that market is expensive, there was a huge volatility and their system halted, all my position were closed and I lost £7500 because I couldn't do anything then, I phoned them straight away and I spoke to a Lucy and told her about what happened, she acknowledge having system problem, put me on hold to speak to IT, after she said she will call me back, after 20 minutes I had a call, she advised me to fund my account and IT team will re-instate all my position, I did that and all my positions were back online, I was shocked because I was thinking for the last hour that this was some scam company but in a short while proved to be a good and honest one, same situation happened to me at intertrader.com, and there paid me back all my losses, but their platform is not as good as CMC, I love CMC and I enjoy trading with them, I hope they will stay in business for ever
