I bought an account for 5k account (onephase)and took my first trade today which was to buy gold and I set my stoploss at 40 to 50 pips, meaning my entry was approximately at 4644.33 and my SL was around 4640 but after some time without any news my trade closed at 4614, meaning in a single trade I lost 5 times of my normal loss and my account was breached. When I spoke to the support team they said that slippage depends on the market conditions…. Does this mean we don't know how slippage works. I should get a retry on my account

I took two trades and my account was failed with no reason
Its all a scam
I'm done with this

Everything you're saying is a lie to avoid paying me what I'm owed. I trade independently, and all my trades are my own. I keep a record of every single transaction. I know perfectly well that you're lying and making up flimsy, baseless excuses. I will tell my YouTube channel's clients to avoid this fraudulent company and work with the highly reputable We Master Trade.

I had a very disappointing experience with this prop firm regarding my payout request and account handling.
I requested a payout after successfully completing all requirements and trading for around 15 days. After that, I was asked to attend a risk interview, which I scheduled at the earliest available time. I waited 5 days for the meeting, completed it, and was told everything was fine and in order.
However, the very next day, my payout was rejected and all my accounts were marked as breached without providing any clear or verifiable evidence. The reason given was “account management,” but I want to clearly state that all trading and account activity was handled solely by me. There was no third-party involvement, no copy trading, and no account sharing.
I requested proof multiple times and even offered to go through additional verification, but no concrete evidence was provided. On top of that, I opened multiple support tickets and sent several emails, but received little to no response.
This situation caused significant inconvenience. I spent around 23 days in total (trading + waiting + delays), and as a trader, time is extremely important.
Additionally, my active accounts were also breached under the same reasoning, and despite acting in good faith, no refund or fair resolution was provided.
Based on my experience, I was not provided with any authentic or verifiable reason for these actions, which raises serious concerns about transparency and fairness.
I would advise other traders to proceed with caution and carefully evaluate their experience before committing to this firm.
I am still open to a fair resolution and hope the company will reconsider and handle this matter professionally. Dear Support Team,
Thank you for your response.
I would like to clarify that I have fully cooperated with your company throughout the entire process, including attending the risk interview and being available for any additional verification or meeting if required.
However, despite your claims, I have not been provided with any concrete proof or verifiable evidence that my account was managed by any other person. I clearly state that all trading activities and account management were conducted solely by me.
If your company believes otherwise, I kindly request that you provide specific evidence, such as proof of copy trading, IP mismatch, account sharing, or any third-party involvement. I am fully prepared to review and respond to any such evidence.
At this stage, if your company does not wish to continue working with me and is unable to process my payout, I respectfully request a full refund of the payments made for my active accounts. To the best of my knowledge, I have not violated any rules.
If no evidence is provided and the payout cannot be processed, I would prefer to discontinue my relationship with your firm and continue my trading journey elsewhere.
I request that this matter be handled fairly and professionally. I look forward to your response.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

🚩They Closed My Funded Account Using a Rule That Doesn’t Exist in Their Own Terms
Instant Funding closed my funded account and withheld my profits using a rule that is not clearly defined, not consistently applied, and contradicts their own communications.
I followed the rules exactly as they were written, traded consistently, and generated profits—only to have my account closed using a definition of “risk” that is nowhere stated in their official guidelines.
What they enforce and what they publish are not the same thing, and I have the emails to prove it.
Here’s exactly what happened.
Their website states:
“Risk per Trade Idea
You may not risk more than 1% of your starting account balance at any time in one trade idea. A trade idea includes all open positions on a single instrument in the same direction (Buy or Sell). Closing and reopening a position in the same direction on the same instrument within 10 minutes is treated as the same trade idea and does not reset the limit. Exceeding this limit will result in a hard breach.”
That’s it.
There is no definition of how “risk” is calculated. No mention of:
* stop-loss distance
* entry-to-stop calculations
* lot size formulas
* Yet when they closed my account, they told me:
“Dear Trader,
I’m reaching out regarding some recent findings on your account (can't say due to guidelines). Our monitoring system has detected a serious breach of our Gambling and Over-Leveraging Rule, specifically the 1% risk/loss per trade threshold, which applies to funded accounts.
As outlined in our trading guidelines:
"You may not risk more than 1% of your account balance on a single trade idea. A trade idea includes all open positions on a single instrument in the same direction (Buy or Sell). Exceeding this limit is classified as gambling and will result in a hard breach.”
Please note that risk is calculated as the distance between Entry and Stop Loss (Entry–SL).
If your Stop Loss risk exceeds 1% of your starting balance, it is also considered a violation of this rule.
These rules are in place to ensure a fair and responsible trading environment. You can review the full details of this policy here”
Calling stop-loss risk “also considered” a violation proves it is not the defined rule, but an added interpretation applied during enforcement.
If this were truly the rule, it would be clearly written—not introduced after the fact.
🚩 The Core Problem
There are two completely different versions of the rule:
* The website version → vague 1% limit
* The enforced version → hidden stop-loss formula
You cannot enforce a rule using a definition that is not written anywhere in the actual rule.
🚩Stop-Loss Contradiction (This is where it really falls apart)
They later sent an email on March 20th, 2026:
“All trades must have a Stop Loss set within 60 seconds… this rule has been introduced…” (temporary measure)
Let’s be clear:
If risk has always been based on stop-loss distance, then:
why were stop losses not always required?
why was this introduced later?
and why was it temporary?
That completely destroys their claim that the rule was “consistent.”
Even worse:
* The email never said stop-loss distance must stay within 1%
* It never said stop-loss placement determines a hard breach
So traders were told to use stop losses—but not how they would be used to fail you.
🚩 “Hard Breach” That Wasn’t Immediate
They claim this is an instant hard breach.
Reality:
* I continued trading
* I was only told at the payout stage
Their explanation:
“The breach was recorded in real time in the backend…”
That’s meaningless.
If the trader has no visibility, it is not real-time enforcement.
It’s retroactive enforcement after profits are made.
🚩 Conflicting Definitions of Risk
They told me:
“Risk is based on stop-loss distance”
But publicly here in trust pilot, they've said:
“The 1% rule is measured on realized losses”
Those are two completely different calculations.
They are switching definitions depending on the situation.
🚩 What This Really Means
* The rule does not define how risk is calculated
* The calculation method is introduced after the fact
* A key requirement (stop loss) was added later—and temporarily
* Enforcement happens without real-time transparency
* Different explanations are used to justify the same action
And based on all of that:
* My account was closed
* My profits were denied
* And I was told the decision is “final”
🚩 Conclusion
This is not a misunderstanding.
This is a rule being:
* vaguely written
* flexibly interpreted
* and selectively enforced
You cannot follow a rule that is not clearly defined in the first place.
If you’re considering Instant Funding, understand this:
The rules you read are not necessarily the rules they enforce.
Proceed carefully.

IF have these tendency of ignoring issues. Emails go unanswered BUT when you address the same issues on DISCORD they immediately blacklist you and you can't post or comment...This is immoral for lack of a better word and they are riding on ignorance. I raised an issue on "add ons" why I should pay for an "add on" for 2% increment on DD then reduce the leverage to 1:8 from 1:20????? What is the rationale???? My number is

This firms cares about its traders!
My payout got denied couple weeks ago due to my own mistake, i was really sad because of that and distanced myself from them, today i got an email saying that they show me good will gesture by giving me a free 5k IF micro ACC!
The best part is that its even a special limited version where the consistency rule is 25% instead of 15%!
Thats huge and amazing! IF really does care about its traders🎉

I am writing to formally dispute the rejection of my payout and the breach on my account, number 8078572.
I was informed by your team that my account was breached based on the 1.5% risk rule. I would like to clarify the specifics of the trade in question to show that no actual rule violation occurred.
While it is true that my initial stop-loss setup represented a 1.5% risk on the account, I actively managed the trade and manually closed the position at a 0.5% loss. Because I closed the trade early, the actual drawdown incurred on the account was only 0.5%. The account never experienced a 1.5% drawdown or violation on that trade.
Furthermore, your firm's rules do not state that simply setting a 1.5% risk parameter constitutes a violation, even if the trade is closed immediately without ever hitting that drawdown level. Since there was no written rule stating that setting the initial risk is an automatic hard breach regardless of the actual loss, it is unreasonable to penalize my account for it after the fact.
I expect my account to be restored and my payout processed promptly.
Best regards,
Nadeem ahmad

Dear Instant Funding Team,
Thank you for finally responding. However, your reply raises more questions than it answers:
1. You claim 'refunds and payouts go through different verification processes' — but this is not documented ANYWHERE on your website. Your FAQ has zero mention of AML policies, wallet verification processes, or any distinction between refund and payout wallet checks. You cannot apply undocumented policies to penalize traders.
2. You acknowledged the USDT/USDC error and the '5 star' response mistake — yet offered no apology or compensation for these clear errors.
3. You say 'continue working with our support team' — I have been doing exactly that for weeks. My support ticket was closed without resolution. Every email received only '24-48 hour' delay responses.
4. My dashboard clearly shows NO BREACHES FOUND and NO CHALLENGES FOUND — I violated zero trading rules. My account was cancelled purely over an undocumented wallet policy.
5. You deleted my Order 2545163 from my dashboard — I have the original email proof.
If you genuinely want to resolve this — process my earned payout of $688.46. Everything else is just words.
Muhammad Tayyab — Account ID: 8082453
UPDATE March 30: InstantFunding's risk team is now reviewing my case after over a week of delays. Still awaiting concrete resolution on my $688.46 payout. Will update when resolved.

I have used this company for over 6 months , but in this week my account was terminated, the reason was reverse trading, and their proof was someone , somewhere opened a trade in Xauusd with a 0,01 lot against my position that was 1 lot, an hour before I opened my trade and he closed the trade two hours after,
Wow I recommend to everyone that think to buy their challenge, you are wasting your money,
This company is a scam, I have screenshots and proof for everything I said,
This company is doomed to bankruptcy, Stay away at All cost , use reliable prop firms.
I wish someone will start a class action lawsuit against them
