Main Bit customer reviews

Summary
Multiple reviewers report the broker is a scam: clients say withdrawals are routinely blocked or delayed with repeated excuses (open trades, network problems, blockchain/testnet issues) and are then pressured to deposit more money to release funds. Victims describe fake tokens and transfers to trick sites (Metamask/test.net), spoof phone numbers and WhatsApp contact, and persistent requests for additional payments labelled as commissions, conversion or blockchain fees, or bogus tax demands (IRS/CRA). Many people were passed between different named “brokers” or finance staff, experienced aggressive or bullying behavior, and saw accounts emptied or reduced to trivial balances after large investments; several reviewers reported losses from thousands up to six figures and filed police or regulatory complaints. Reviewers also allege the company posts fake positive reviews, becomes unresponsive, and may rebrand or move clients to new entities. Overall the consistent advice from reviewers is to avoid the firm, do not send additional funds, and report the case to authorities.

You should really stay away from putting your money here. They haven't answered any of the numerous emails I sent them requesting my withdrawal but their "help center" has been unreachable. There are better alternatives available out there. But I am glad I moved to Plutonium Investment but wish I had known them much earlier then I won't be in this mess of losing my hard-earned money to Main Bit.

Please read the one star reviews only. The 4 and 5 stars are written by main-bit staff to help the rating. Remember those names, Frank White, David Vic, Christopher M Allen, Max Foster. Those are the people who scammed me. It is more money for them to make more. But the platform is not real. I asked Chris to show me how to withdraw. He did but did not worked so he did transferred saying that there was something wrong. But the transfer that he did I did not. have control so you will never see you money back. This is your warming... F**** Brits...

This so called company are scammers, they stole over $30,000 USD and now they are impossible to reach and their domain does not seem to exist any longer. I tried to withdraw my money and they sent me a bill for close to $3000. I told them to substrat that amount from my balance and transfer the rest and they insisted that I needed to send cash. Told them I would not do that as it did not make sense and that I suspected they were just low life scammers. Sent emails again this week and emails no longer work. So anyone who says they were able to receive their funds within a few days and without problems are lying as both my partner and I had the same problem and together we lost over $50k USD.

Liars, Liars, Liars with no professional ethics. I took to writing this review, because my partner cannot close the account with MainBit. The story started early last year. Very good communication to start up with , however the communication was only to ask for more money and not nicely. When more money were not sent the traders which I will name a bit later started with bullying and threatening behaviour ( Giovanni Federa), blocked the trading account, threaten to sue us and send the police and take whatever interest percentage they decide off of the profit ( Chris something , some financial director at MainBit) As such, the decision was made to close the account in September 2022. Since then nothing happened and they are still requesting money for traders fee (Giovani and now Max Foster, who even swore on his children that he will close the account and transfer the funds after such and such amount is being transferred) or the money got stuck in blockchain ( Max). All sorts of excuses and account still not closed, funds still not transferred. Anna Andrews which requested more money , yet again, to close the account, after the funds were sent, put on hold and then dropped. Two days later being called again to pay the governmental taxes to release the funds. The MainBit traders that we dealt with so far and they were a few , proved to be liars, shamefully inducing you in error, promising the stars and the moon before getting funds and doing nothing after. Scammers ,Liars,Bullies.

Main-bit have just scammed us out of approx $100,000 CAD. We started trading with them in June 2022. We have been passed around various different " brokers" who were allegedly trading on our behalf. Their names are David James, Frank White , John Marks, Chris Allen. We wanted to withdraw funds in Dec and John Marks talked us out of it. We were then passed on to Chris Allen. He actually advised us to withdraw all of our funds, something to do with Canada banning leverage trading so they are advising all Canadian clients to withdraw their money. He told us we had to pay $27,000 in commission and fees in order to be able to withdraw our money. He passed us to a guy called David in the " finance " dept and after getting sick of hearing me sobbing and him shouting down the phone at me really aggressively, he said he would waive the conversion and blockchain fees etc but we still had to pay the commission to the broker , this was $13,500 CAD. We sent this money as they were so convincing and then we were passed to a guy called John Campbell who proceeded to tell me that I needed to pay another $3000 because bitcoin had increased over the last week so they had made us even more money. I paid the $3000 and was expecting the funds to be transferred. He called me today and said they couldn't transfer the funds to my Virgocx account as I didn't have a business account and it was a lot of money so they wanted to send it by wire to my bank account. He then told me I needed to pay another $2000 in conversion fees to have it sent in CAD and that the funds were there waiting to be transferred. I sent the $2000 today, asked if the funds had been transferred and I just got " erm, err, err, you just need to speak with Raphael first as he will tell you about the tax implication" . A few minutes later this Raphael guy called and tried to tell me that he was from the tax dept and that we had to pay the taxes on the money before it could be sent. I said I know he wasn't from CRA and I certainly do not pay taxes to him. He eventually hung up the phone. Our account now shows as having $2 USD in it instead of $261,000 USD, this was our initial investment and the "profits" they had made. This company has been completely believable with lots of things they have said, and they actually told me to google to check what they were telling me. I have contacted the police but there is little they can do. This is clearly a worldwide professional group of scammers allegedly working in the UK, Switzerland and I think maybe Italy as well. I noticed on their website that in the right hand corner where the little flags are the Canadian flag is no longer there. John Campbell even said to me that they were starting up a new company and were hoping to keep their clients from Main-bit so I wouldn't be surprised if main-bit totally shuts down in the coming months in Canada. My husband is inconsolable, everything we have worked for over the last 18 years of being in Canada is now gone, we have nothing.

My broker Frank Wright would not allow me to take out my money. He kept telling me he couldn't & to wait. He is finally no longer with the company & I lost a bundle. He is a scammer and a Liar. Sounds to me like this firm is not reliable.'I have very little left in the account with them & I can't get it out, they put my account with another broker and he told me he wanted me to deposit $5,000.00 as he wouldn't waste his F-----g time with this small amount. Save your money as they will screw you around.

Would put zero star if could, scammers will take your money and when you want to withdraw will be excuse after excuse to why they can’t. Then will say open an account via an email from another company this is also scam as the company if you go on their website don’t send emails

Sadly I invested my full credit limit in this to help my life over the last 3 months and when they had exhausted my credit limit they paid it into a test.net site which is a trick site hiding under Metamask and when I withdrew to Coinbase it never got there because it was all fake. I got on so well with my trader Nick Brendon I am gutted he fooled me and now my life will be wracked with debt. The name of the "Finance department" person is Dan who set up the wallet on Metamask for me.

They are a bad company with rotten workers and support, they wouldn't let me take my money out for almost 5 weeks now, at this stage I never believed I could get deceived into this despite being an academician because everything looked so real and true, I literally do not know much about all these crypto stuff but got convinced by the ad, I have been finding a way to get it all out but nothing yet, I've followed suit with Johnny Woods review and there's a positive turnaround already.

Do not use this company nothing but a SCAM. They over promised and under delivered ! When you try to withdraw your money it will not let you and they say because your trades are open, so you close the trades and they still will not return your money back to you ! They just try and hound you to put more money into their company because there’s another big deal when there is no such deal They then tell you that you have to pay tax to IRS in USA, which is a lie just to get more money out of you, scam Do not deal with ANDY MILLER OR MICHAEL NOVAK JOHN CAMPBELL Stay clear and keep your money safe WHEN SOMETHING SEEMS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN IT ALWAYS IS !!!!!
