How to apply for the withdrawal of funds?
To use the services of the supervisory authority, which is the IFS, you need to fill out the form, which is presented on the site. You can get to it by clicking the "Refund request" button. The questionnaire should indicate your name, surname, patronymic, phone number, email address, as well as the address of registration. In a separate column, you need to describe the problem and attach documents that will help in resolving the issue.
How is the application for withdrawal considered?
IFS first examines the material provided and evaluates the situation. If there are additional questions, the company will contact the complaining customer. If the solution to the problem is within its competence, a letter of complaint is sent to the defendant.
The defendant must explain in detail to International Financial Services the reasons for the non-return of client funds. If they prove to be legitimate, then the supervisor will not intervene and cannot satisfy the client’s request for a refund. If the actions of the defendant prove to be contrary to the letter of the law, the IFS will intervene and begin the refund procedure. In working with client complaints, the company uses industry regulators, as well as the legal system.
Compensation and assets protection
IFS calls itself a company that cares about its traders. It provides additional financial protection through the Commission’s Compensation Fund. This fund provides financial cover of up to 200 thousand euros per person. Compensation is distributed between 15 and 30 days.
