FunderPro Allegedly Owes $11K Over Platform and Affiliate Disputes
A trader posting under the handle @dimjim77 has shared an extensive, multi-installment account of his experience with FunderPro, outlining what he describes as serious operational failures, mishandled account issues, unreturned profits, and conflicts with management and affiliated individuals. While the allegations are his alone and remain unverified, the thread has gained community attention due to its volume of detail and his previous reputation as a high-volume trader.
The trader stresses that his claims are based on his personal records, videos, screenshots, and correspondence, and invites disagreement from other traders who were active during the same periods.
Background: From Early Supporter to High-Volume Trader
According to his account, @dimjim77 states that he joined FunderPro early, during its Telegram era, encouraged them to move to Discord, and become one of their most active traders in late 2023 through 2024. He claims:
-
He traded heavily during the MT5 shutdown phase.
-
He used TradeLocker, which he says was plagued with daily issues.
-
He became one of the firm’s most consistent traders, with over 100+ payouts.
-
He streamed large parts of his trading publicly, believing in the firm at the time.
The trader emphasizes that his long‑term relationship with FunderPro is key context for the disputes that later unfolded.
Allegation 1: Platform Failures and a Disputed $9,000 Loss
The first major dispute centers on a period in May 2024 when TradeLocker reportedly experienced 1–1.5 days of severe downtime. According to the trader, the issues included:
-
Trades opening or closing on their own
-
Stop-loss and take-profit levels not triggering
-
Buttons failing to respond
-
Charts not loading
-
Dashboard balances lagging for hours
He claims he ended the day with an account showing around $209,000, but after platform freezes and dashboard mismatches, the account appeared to breach overnight.
When he contacted support, he says the firm denied responsibility because no “official” announcement of downtime had been posted, despite internal Discord chat messages acknowledging issues. He argues this contradicted the standard industry procedure of reversing trades affected by platform malfunctions.
The dispute, he says, dragged on for over 20 days, involving repeated calls, video submissions, and delays, but ultimately ended with him being told to restart via a new challenge with stricter drawdown limits, despite being a long‑term profitable trader.
Allegation 2: A Live Account Breach While Trades Were in Profit
The second case described by the trader involves what he calls an “impossible breach.” He claims that:
-
He received a new live account around 9–9:30 AM, opened a gold trade, and was in profit.
-
Within an hour he received a breach notification.
-
The dashboard showed a large unrealized loss despite the trade being in profit on TradeLocker.
-
The account stayed active inside TradeLocker (indicating no real breach), but later disappeared.
He suggests the dashboard deducted large amounts that did not reflect on the actual trading platform. After nearly two weeks of messages, escalations, and silence, the account was ultimately removed, according to him, without payout or correction.
Extended Communication Delays and a Partial Resolution
After repeated outreach, the trader says he eventually reached management in a voice call. He claims they acknowledged mistakes regarding one of the accounts but did not address:
-
The earlier missing $9,000
-
The time lost
-
Any compensation beyond a $930 refund and an NDA-style letter requesting he refrain from discussing the matter
According to his thread, he was then banned from the Discord server and trading platform.
Allegation 3: Affiliate Non‑Payment and Termination Without Notice
The final portion of the thread focuses on affiliate payments. The trader claims:
-
He brought 300+ signups before ever receiving an affiliate link.
-
He never received special deals, free accounts, or promotions.
-
He continued receiving payouts as an affiliate even after his trading ban, suggesting the affiliate status was still active.
-
Later, he stopped receiving payments and was ultimately locked out.
-
He was not given a termination notice, nor access to the client emails he believes affiliates usually receive.
-
He alleges approximately $2,000 in unpaid affiliate commissions, alongside the earlier trading disputes.
He also shared screenshots of messages where he says an affiliate manager viewed and then “unread” his messages, which he cites as part of the pattern of avoidance.
Community Reaction and Ongoing Discussion
The thread by @dimjim77 tags several community figures and affiliate accounts, urging them to review his evidence and share similar experiences if they exist. He frames his story as part of a broader pattern of trader–firm disputes across the industry, citing cases that have recently surfaced.
As of now, FunderPro has not publicly responded to the multi-part thread, and no independent verification of the trader’s claims has been established.
