CLIENT REIMBURSEMENTS

LegacyFX adopts a high priority policy in reimbursing its clients whenever a valid amount of money is requested as a withdrawal, through the company’s proper withdrawal channels and procedure.

Certain criteria must be met and maintained by a client on their account to facilitate the withdrawal of funds. Such criteria include, but are not limited to:

• Any balance NOT required for margin purposes and NOT a credit or bonus as provided by the company can be furnished out through a regular withdrawal request.
• The client’s account must be deemed fully KYC verified by the company’s Compliance Department, with the most recent and complete documentation as requested.
• Said criteria for withdrawal approval are subject to revision per the company’s discretion.

All withdrawal requests are subject to a comprehensive review by the company and are liable for cancellation upon the discretion of the company.

Withdrawals for deposited funds will be executed in the manner that the initial funds were received, whenever possible. Withdrawals for profits (funds exceeding the amount initially deposited) may be executed via the credit/debit card used to make the initial deposit (as a single complete transaction), if required by the 3rd party remitters the company work. If not, profit withdrawals will be executed only once the client provides the company with an alternative payment method to submit the funds via. An alternative payment method may also be required in cases where the company is unable to send deposited funds via the original method of payment. In that case, the company will notify the client accordingly and request an alternative method of payment to which we can send the funds. The method through which funds are sent out is ultimately at the company’s discretion.

While the company will always strive to expedite withdrawals in a timely fashion, delays may occur that are out of the company's control. Additionally, processing times may vary depending on the payment method used to send the funds. The time frame for a withdrawal to be executed includes the company's reviewal of said request, the company’s own processing time of the withdrawal request from its systems, as well as processing times from the individual 3rd party financial remitters and institutions they are sent from. Since such 3rd party financial institutions are the ultimate transmitters of said funds, the company is therefore not liable and holds no responsibility nor influence over the processing times of said 3rd party processors, banks, etc.

For more detailed information on this topic, please refer to our Refund And Return Policy legal document.

ADJUSTMENTS

The company reserves the right to execute changes and adjustments to client trades, transactions, and accounts overall. Such changes include but are not limited to, addition or subtraction of fees, negative balance protection corrections, corporate actions (dividends, stock splits, rights, etc.), and rollovers. All adjustments are calculated and applied by the company’s Dealing Department.

At any time, the company exercises its right to liquidate, terminate, or cancel a client’s account, transactions, positions, orders, withdrawal requests, etc. This might occur to assist the client, perform necessary corrections, reflect changes due to rollovers, or if the client fails to maintain the needed margin requirements, or does not comply with company conditions.
