Phidias Propfirm: Up to 80% Off One-Time Payments and 60% Off Monthly Evaluations

Another day feeling violated! Every trade reverses immediate and regardless of stop loss you either hit it or close the trade out with maximum slippage! Cut my connection with funds still on paid eval! Don't buy. It's just a revenge game at this point with the increased manipulation refusing to fill orders on breakouts, disconnected from connection, refusal to trade assets on Ninja trader, Mnq specifically, won't accept market orders on certain assets forced to trade Nq1 through ninja trader or use other outdated platforms with known and systemic issues connected to props. Stop losses being filled clearly below where they were set, oh and the random complete screen refresh's in middle of a breakout that changes the tape right in front of your eyes then guess what, yep loss of trade! They don't expect people to pay attention to these things that are not random occurrences. DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE! No lies here just what's experienced! To many to say otherwise at this point. No slander no ill intent just an experience being reported!

I don't recommend a very bad prop company, when you make a mistake when buying they have a problem with a refund, overall their conditions are not worth it, I think THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT CHOICE, hands off

If you become profitable they will ban you without a reason, they say 2 months waiting period and when you come back they ban you.
AVOID
If I could give 0 stars I would...

While Phidias allocates
resources to email
promotional campaigns
about a "10-account giveaway",
paying customers
remain completely
ignored by support.
This raffle is a clear
corporate strategy
to mask and overshadow
the destructive criticism
regarding system failures.
My detailed case
remains unaddressed:
1. Contract Alteration:
I purchased a 150K Premium
One-Time Fee account.
After applying their official
coupon "Q4PUSH",
the platform arbitrarily
assigned a 50K Fundamental
plan with an unapproved
monthly recurring subscription.
2. Good Faith Negotiations:
I contacted support
in a polite and cooperative
manner. I offered to settle
the financial difference
or even swap the service
to a 25K To Live plan
just to avoid losing my funds.
The team responded
with absolute silence.
3. Total Platform Failure:
Out of sheer necessity
not to waste my capital,
I finally accepted to operate
the 50K account forced upon me.
However, it is impossible to work.
Both Rithmic and NinjaTrader
credentials throw continuous
critical connection errors.
The market data is dead.
It is profoundly
disappointing to receive
promotional spam
offering "free accounts"
while my capital is held captive
under a completely
non-delivered service.

I am posting this review because I believe other traders deserve to know exactly what happened to me before spending their money with Phidias Propfirm.
I spent **nearly $1,000 purchasing accounts from Phidias**. I then invested a significant amount of time and effort trading those accounts, passing the required stages and building the necessary buffers.
Only after I had paid for the accounts and done all of that work, Phidias questioned the location of my connection.
I explained openly and honestly that I reside in Brazil but use a **VPS located in the United States** for technical reasons, including connection stability, lower latency and the convenience of maintaining the same virtual trading environment when I travel.
Their response was shocking.
Phidias informed me that **“the use of VPS and VPN services is strictly prohibited under our terms and conditions”**, terminated my access, banned me from using their services and did not refund the money I had spent purchasing the accounts.
There is one enormous problem with that justification:
**WHERE IS THIS RULE?**
After receiving their response, I searched their publicly available **Terms of Use and published rules**, specifically looking for a prohibition on VPS or VPN usage.
**I could not find it.**
If Phidias claims that VPS and VPN services are “strictly prohibited under our terms and conditions,” then they should be able to point customers to the **exact clause that says so**.
A company cannot reasonably expect customers to comply with a supposed “strict prohibition” that customers cannot find in the publicly available rules they are expected to read before purchasing and trading.
Had this restriction been clearly disclosed, I simply **would not have used a VPS**.
I did not hide its use when questioned. I immediately explained exactly what I was doing and why. Nevertheless, after accepting nearly $1,000 from me and allowing me to put substantial effort into passing and developing these accounts, Phidias used this supposed rule to terminate the relationship and keep the money I had paid.
I have asked them to identify the **specific section, clause or published rule** that prohibited my use of a VPS.
This is not about asking Phidias to make an exception to a clearly disclosed rule. **The fundamental issue is whether this alleged prohibition was actually disclosed to the customer in the first place.**
If Phidias can produce the specific rule that was applicable when I purchased and traded these accounts, people can evaluate it for themselves.
But if they cannot, then in my opinion what happened to me is completely unacceptable: **take a customer's money, allow him to spend considerable time successfully working on the accounts, and then ban him without refund based on a supposed “strict prohibition” that he cannot find in the company's publicly available Terms and Rules.**
I have documentation of the communications and of the reason Phidias provided for its decision.
Based on my personal experience, **I consider the way Phidias handled this situation dishonest and deeply unfair to the customer.**
**My warning to other traders is simple: stay away from this prop firm. Do not risk spending your money and your time only to discover later that an unpublished or difficult-to-find restriction can be used against you after you have already done the hard work.**
**RUN FROM THIS PROP FIRM.**
Until Phidias can show exactly where this supposed VPS/VPN prohibition was disclosed to customers, **I would not trust them with another dollar.**
