Title: Unfair Account Termination Post-Payout Without Transparency (Account #339188940)
I am writing this review to express my deep disappointment with BrightFunded regarding the unfair handling of Funded Account #339188940.
After successfully passing the two-phase evaluation according to all trading rules, I received my funded account and generated profits. Before receiving my first payout, I was required to attend a compliance interview. The interview went seamlessly, and I was assured that everything was fully compliant and my payout would be processed within two days.
Although the payout was sent, I was immediately shocked to receive a series of automated emails terminating my funded account and banning my profile permanently. The Risk Department cited vague articles (5.4c, 5.4g, and 5.7) alleging "prohibited trading practices" and "risk management violations."
When I requested clear evidence or trade logs to understand the basis of these allegations, BrightFunded refused to provide any details, hiding behind claims of "sensitive information."
This situation raises clear contradictions:
1. If my trading strategy was non-compliant, how did it pass two evaluation phases and a manual compliance interview?
2. Why issue generic robotic template responses refusing transparent review if the company truly supports genuine traders?
Banning profitable traders immediately after their first payout without providing clear evidence severely damages trust. I strongly advise prospective traders to be extremely cautious before investing their time and money here.

Maybe this time my review will stay up? So far my positive reviews for BrightFunded have been flagged, and I have no idea why. This is my third attempt to say what a wonderful company BrightFunded is, to thank Jude, my favorite chat representative who never disappoints and always provides excellent customer service, and to thank BrightFunded for this opportunity that I otherwise wouldn't have due to lack of capital. I'm happy to say that I passed a $25,000 Challenge today and I'm in Phase 2 of another one. Nothing about any of what I just said is fake. Thank you, BrightFunded!

I do not recommend this company to anyone; it is the worst, completely disorganized, and 100% fraudulent. I passed the test, but when I proceeded to identity verification, they used a bot that rejected my documents. After the bot blocked me, I requested verification from the support team; I spent three weeks asking them to review my documents—which were 100% valid. This is a clear case of fraud. Do not go near this company; you will only lose your fees. Stay away.

Rating: ⭐☆☆☆☆ (1/5)
Review Body:
> I have been trading with BrightFunded for over 6 months on a $100k Funded Account (#339291445). My trading style is strictly risk-managed: executing a fixed 0.5 lot size on XAU/USD (risking less than 1% per trade) with a maximum of one trade per day or holding swing positions.
> Over this period:
> • I strictly adhered to all maximum daily and overall drawdown limits.
> • I passed their risk management video interview.
> • I successfully withdrew over $10,000 in profits over 6 months of consistent trading.
> The Issue:
> Right after my latest payout was processed, BrightFunded paid out my remaining profits but immediately terminated my funded account, citing Article 5.7 / Article 5.4 ("excessive risk / malicious practices") and "Administrative reasons."
> Calling a fixed, disciplined 0.5 lot position on XAU/USD on a $100k account "excessive risk" or "malicious" after half a year of compliant trading is completely arbitrary and unreasonable.
> Verdict:
> To their credit, BrightFunded honored and processed my payout. However, terminating a long-term profitable trader’s account simply because they consistently withdraw profits shows that their risk policy relies on subjective, blanket clauses. If you are a disciplined swing trader looking for a stable, long-term prop firm, be aware that your account may be arbitrarily closed once you prove consistently profitable.
