    If you don’t have a deadline with your requests of Totality/Saxo then you may find that you are satisfied with them.
    My experience is VERY different.
    There is ZERO duty of care.
    What do I mean by that?
    If you have an account in one currency, and place a trade that requires a currency-conversion, THERE IS NOTHING ON THEIR TRADING PLATFORM THAT ALERTS YOU TO THE RISK OF HIGH CURRENCY-CONVERSION FEES.
    In fact, it’s not mentioned AT ALL on the trade confirmation screen.
    Now, any ethical broker would have that built into their platform.
    If no broker does, then they’re ALL CROOKS!
    Any oversight on behalf of the client is immediately penalised!
    Not only that, but when you reach out to their Support for assistance in creating a sub-account in a different currency, it takes FOREVER for them to get around to actioning it.
    Then, if you need to transfer existing positions to the new sub-account, even when you appeal for them to treat it with urgency, and they agree, they STILL don’t do it promptly.
    I had one of their internal consultants declare to me that when rebranding from Saxo to Totality was complete, ALL staff would be onshore.
    That’s a blatant LIE !
    Much of the back-end staff are located in South Africa!
    Thus the same delays, and the same lack of accountability.
    The same poor service exists now as Totality as it did when it was Saxo.
    I really don’t understand how this broker achieved the high ranking it did, as my experience with Totality/Saxo has been disastrous!
