First, either visit their website or use the Webtrader to get in touch with them to delete the account.

    The most common reason people delete an account is the fact they don't want to trade anymore. It could be that they lost money on the platform or found another broker that suits them better. You should read our guide here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another reason people choose to terminate their Plus500 account is they don't offer the instrument you want to trade. While they offer a huge amount of instruments, there might be some that you can't find. This is a reason you will want to close your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Now there are also more technical reasons why some traders choose to close their accounts. Some report withdrawal or deposit problems or problems with order executions. Before you decide and terminate the account, talk to Plus500 first, as most issues are a glitch and can be solved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Finding another broker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you were facing problems with their platform and decided to terminate the account with them, there are a few other options you have. If you lost a significant amount of money, it is sometimes good to take a break. You then sign up at another broker like eToro and use their demo account to regain your confidence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you want to trade forex, we suggest going with Pepperstone. For a more hands-off approach and stock investing, we suggest eToro.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4438,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_stopmodifiedupdate":false,"_modified_date":"","_important_terms":"","inline_featured_image":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","ub_ctt_via":"","advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[225],"tags":[],"table_tags":[],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Ziga Breznik","author_link":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/authors\/"},"author_meta":{"display_name":"Ziga Breznik","author_link":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/authors\/"},"featured_img":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account-300x154.jpg","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account.jpg",1191,613,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account-300x154.jpg",300,154,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account-768x395.jpg",768,395,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account-1024x527.jpg",1024,527,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account.jpg",1191,613,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/closing-your-plus500-account.jpg",1191,613,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Ziga Breznik","author_link":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/authors\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":null,"coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["Knowledge Base<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Knowledge Base<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":"0","relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 2 years ago","modified":"Updated 1 year ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on August 24, 2022","modified":"Updated on December 6, 2022"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on August 24, 2022 4:05 am","modified":"Updated on December 6, 2022 12:20 pm"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4436"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4436"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4436\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":510932,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4436\/revisions\/510932"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4436"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4436"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4436"},{"taxonomy":"table_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.publicfinanceinternational.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/table_tags?post=4436"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
