Withdrawal times this year: what I logged across three brokers

[FXS London Scalper]

I keep a small log of every withdrawal: request time, approval time, and when the money actually arrived. This year I made 14 withdrawals across three brokers.

The numbers:

• Broker A, bank transfer: approved within one business day every time, money arrived in two to three days. Very consistent.
• Broker B, card refund: approved quickly, but the money took up to eight business days to show on my card statement. Normal for card refunds, but worth knowing.
• Broker C, bank transfer: twice approved within a day, once delayed five days for a document check that I'd already done at sign-up.

The delay at Broker C was resolved after one email, but it shows that withdrawal speed is often not about the broker's systems, it's about their compliance process.

My advice for new members: make a small withdrawal early, before you need the money. It tests the process and catches document issues while there's no pressure.

How long do your withdrawals usually take? It would be good to have recent data in one thread.
