Dear Linda,
We’re sorry to hear that you feel this way. At Falcon Funded, our rules are clearly published in advance and apply equally to all traders. These guidelines are not meant to make payouts “impossible,” but to ensure consistency, risk management, and fairness across the program.
In fact, we process payouts daily to traders worldwide who follow the rules, many of them substantial. Our structure is designed to give serious traders a fair opportunity to grow, with some of the most generous drawdown limits in the industry (4% daily and 11% total).
If you’d like, we’d be happy to review your account in detail and explain the specific reasons behind any denied payout. Please feel free to contact our support team directly.
Kind regards,
Mitch Lemming

I passed a 100k two step challenge and they refused to give me funding. I didn't break any rules, I stayed well within any risk parameters that are clear on their website and FAQ. But because I passed 100k they automatically deny it. If they do it to me THEY WILL DO IT TO YOU.
They could not give me a valid reason and ignored my emails. I'll be charging back my credit cards and reporting their company as fraudulent.
These 5 star reviews are very suspicious if you read though them please don't fall for it. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Dear Lucas,
We’re sorry to hear about your frustration, but we must respectfully correct several points for accuracy.
First, we do not automatically deny funded accounts at the 100K level or any other size. Many traders have successfully passed 100K challenges and gone on to receive funding and payouts. Account reviews are based solely on compliance with the published trading rules, not account size.
Second, no trader is ever disqualified without explanation. If your funding was denied, it would have been due to a rule breach identified during the manual verification stage—such as missing stop losses, prohibited trading behavior, or violations of the news trading policy. These are communicated via email along with supporting details. If you believe you didn’t receive that communication, we encourage you to check your spam folder or contact support again with your ticket number so we can resend it.
Finally, we want to be clear: Falcon Funded is not fraudulent, and suggesting otherwise is inaccurate. We have funded and paid out thousands of traders who follow the rules, and many of our 5-star reviews come from genuine clients who are satisfied with their experience.
We welcome you to reach out again with your account ID so we can re-review your case and ensure you have a clear understanding of the decision.
Kind regards,
Mitch Lemming

The prices look tempting but..
The prices look tempting, but don’t be fooled. Payouts are almost impossible to get.
My first withdrawal was denied because I closed a trade during “news,” even though I strictly followed the XTB calendar (which rated it as medium impact). FalconFunded never says which calendar is valid.
My second payout was refused due to a “missing Stop Loss.” In reality, I placed the SL immediately after opening the position — it only got removed automatically when switching order types. At other prop firms you’d at least get a warning — here you get nothing.
Support is polite, but that doesn’t change the fact: rules are applied unfairly, payouts are blocked, and traders are left with nothing.

Dear Andrea,
Thank you for your feedback. We understand your frustration, and we’d like to clarify the points you’ve raised so that readers have the full context.
1. News Trading Policy
Our policy requires traders to avoid opening or closing trades within 10 minutes of high-impact news events unless they have the News Trading Add-On. To ensure consistency, we follow the Forex Factory calendar as our reference point, which is publicly available and has been our standard across all accounts. While other calendars may show different impact ratings, we must rely on one consistent source, and this is communicated in our Trading Rules.
2. Stop Loss Requirement
All trades must have a stop loss in place at the time of entry, without exceptions. While we understand your SL may have been applied shortly after or removed by the platform during an order type change, our rules require that every position remains protected. This is a strict part of our risk management framework and is clearly stated in advance. Unlike some firms that issue warnings, our policy is to enforce the rules consistently across all traders to maintain fairness.
3. Payouts
It’s not correct to say payouts are “blocked.” We process payouts daily to traders worldwide who comply with the rules, including significant withdrawals. Denials only occur when violations are found during the manual verification process.
We appreciate your positive note about our support team and regret that this experience has left you feeling disappointed. If you’d like us to review your case again in detail, please reach out with your account ID, and we’ll gladly revisit the evaluation.

I won a 25k account on X
I won a 25k account on X. Worked hard to pass all the phases. At review for my live account I was failed. I was told it was gambling behaviour. I used 10 lot on indices because the pipnvalue is very low and I was observing my risk parameters of 0.5% to 1% per trade. I accidentally opened 10 lots on XAUUSD which I closed immediately . I never had a loss of more than 1% except the XAUUSD trade which was around 1.25%.
I explained it to the support staff, Adrian.His response was cold and went along the lines of, it's the traders responsibility even if it is a mistake. My average loss was $168 and average win was $325 which show proper risk management.
I asked to escalate my issue and I was denied. I don't understand their complaint management procedure and how a client is denied access to decision makers to query something , explain my position and what happened.
The gambling rule is just a way to disqualify traders and deny them payouts.

Dear Kamohelo,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand the effort it takes to pass all phases of a challenge and how frustrating it can feel to be denied at the verification stage.
To clarify: during the manual review of your 25K account, your trading was flagged for gambling behavior due to position sizing and execution. Specifically:
Opening 10-lot positions on indices and an accidental 10-lot position on XAUUSD, even if brief, significantly exceeded the exposure guidelines for your account size.
While you note that your average loss per trade was relatively small, risk management is evaluated not only by realized outcomes but also by the potential exposure created at entry. Large lot sizes, even if closed quickly, create unacceptable risk and fall under prohibited behavior.
Our rules are clear that traders must:
Use consistent risk management aligned with account size.
Avoid oversized or impulsive trades, even if accidental.
Accept that all trades are the trader’s responsibility once placed.
We also want to clarify our complaint and escalation process: all appeals are reviewed internally by senior staff, but outcomes are only overturned if there is clear evidence of an error. In this case, the decision was upheld because the rules were correctly applied.
We do not deny payouts arbitrarily. Falcon Funded has successfully paid thousands of traders who respect the guidelines, and we are proud to offer some of the most generous drawdown limits in the industry (4% daily / 11% total).
While we appreciate your explanation and perspective, we must apply rules consistently to all traders in order to maintain fairness.

Scam! Please spread the word and share.
I really wished there was a 0-star section; Falcon Funded would be on top of the list. Please, please, PLEASE!! Spread the word to your friends, your families, and even your enemies! Stay away from this scam of a company. Let us get this platform shut down as soon as possible for scamming people of their hard-earned money. I have been trading with this prop firm for a couple of months now. I took my time with small trades, never to break any of their "rules". It took me a while to pass their phase 1 and phase 2. I endured all their software outages and kept my head down and cracked on. Now, today should have been my first payout; they rejected my request, stating that I have violated their news trading rules by trading CPI on 12/08/2025 and I did not purchase the news trading add-on. Let me tell you this now: over the years I have been burnt too many times trading news, so I personally, for maybe 6 months or more, stay away from news trading. I simply see (red) high-impact news and stay away. Don't even open my MT5 once news is on. On the day they claim that I traded the news (I am going based on UK timezone) CPI was 1330. I executed an XAUUSD (Gold) trade at 1435. They sent me a screenshot stating CPI news was at 12:30 (I don't know what timezone they used) and that I executed the trade at 12:35. It doesn't matter what timezone you are using; my trade went in 1 hour and 5 minutes after the CPI news. This was their reason for rejecting my payout. Total Scam. I tried talking to their support, and their rude assistant manager clearly told me, "My decision is final, and you are not getting a payout, but you can buy another challenge." Let us all, I ask, do our best to have these people investigated and face the law. Share this on every platform ASAP! People, we need to stand up against this type of injustice. I see it happening to many other people after scrolling through the different reviews.

Dear Fabio,
We understand your frustration, but we must respectfully clarify the situation for accuracy.
Your payout request was denied following a manual compliance review that found a violation of our News Trading Policy. Specifically:
CPI news was scheduled at 12:30 ET (Eastern Time), which is the timezone we use consistently across all accounts and as clearly stated in our Trading Rules.
Your XAUUSD trade was executed at 12:35 ET, which falls within the 10-minute restricted window around high-impact news events.
Trading during this period without the News Trading Add-On is a rule breach, regardless of whether the trade was profitable or whether you avoided news based on your local timezone.
We recognize that timezone differences can cause confusion, which is why we explicitly reference Forex Factory’s calendar in Eastern Time as our standard reference point. This ensures that rules are applied consistently and fairly to all traders worldwide.
To address two further points:
Our staff did not “make up” rules or refuse escalation arbitrarily. The Assistant Manager correctly applied the published rules, which are available on our website at all times.
We do not deny payouts to avoid paying traders. Falcon Funded has successfully funded and paid thousands of traders who follow the rules, and many have gone on to grow accounts with us long-term.
We regret that your experience left you feeling disappointed, but our rules are applied equally to every trader to protect the integrity of the program. If you’d like us to share the detailed trade log and calendar reference again, please contact our support team and we’ll gladly provide it for transparency.
Kind regards,

Dear Abby,
We strongly reject the claim that Falcon Funded “scams” clients or misuses their information. Falcon Funded is a legitimate proprietary trading firm—we do not take deposits for investment, nor do we access client funds. Traders simply purchase an evaluation, and if successful while following the rules, they receive a funded account with payout opportunities.
All personal information is handled securely in compliance with data protection standards. We have funded and paid out thousands of traders worldwide who have followed the rules, and transparency is central to our business.
If you experienced a specific issue, we encourage you to contact our support team directly with your account details so we can review your case fully.

Dear Jay,
We understand your frustration, but we’d like to clarify the reason for your account closure to ensure there’s no misunderstanding.
Our News Trading Policy is publicly available and applies to all account types. Trading during high-impact news events within 10 minutes before or after the release requires the News Trading Add-On. This rule is in place to prevent exploitation of extreme market volatility and is enforced consistently for all traders.
While you mentioned you were unaware of this requirement, the policy is clearly stated prior to purchase and in our Trading Rules section. Unfortunately, multiple instances of news trading without the add-on—even if unintentional—constitute a breach that results in account closure.
We appreciate your point about downtime, but any unrelated system disruptions do not override compliance with trading rules. Our goal is to apply policies fairly and equally to every trader to maintain the integrity of the program.
If you’d like, our support team can review your trades in detail and walk you through exactly where the news trading breaches occurred.
Kind regards,

Dear Ismael,
We’re sorry to hear about your frustration and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
The recent server migration was communicated to all affected traders via email and platform notices, with full instructions on how to connect to the new server. We understand transitions can be inconvenient, which is why our support team remained available throughout the process to assist with reconnection.
If your account was blocked, it would only have been due to a breach of the agreed trading rules or inactivity beyond the allowed limits—not simply because of the migration itself. In such cases, account resets or reactivations are available under our standard policies, but they must be requested within the applicable time frames.
We encourage you to contact our support team again with your ticket number so we can review your specific case. While we cannot offer refunds for active or used accounts, we will gladly explore alternative solutions to get you trading again.

I joined Falcon Funded in March 2025
I joined Falcon Funded in March 2025, the first 2 months I was just doing something, I guess. then the server crash out happened and we couldn't trade for a long time. However I believe that the support team and mainly the Mod team have responded adequately to this issue. They have always been willing to help in my experience and have helped me very well.
Giving it 4 stars as I believe that their trading rules are not always made specifically clear. Some say you can't trade news 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after, somewhere else it says 2 minutes before and 2 minutes after. So this would be my advice to Falcon Funded for an area to improve on.
