It is helpful to have direct in-app communication ability. I usually do get the right answer and back on my way pretty quickly. It is unclear how to submit requests for features within the platform.

7 Hours Onboarding Ordeal

Review Title: A 7-Hour Onboarding Ordeal: Tech Glitches, Poor UX, and a Rigid System
The Experience:
I attempted to move a US portfolio of 88 stocks to Saxo, but the onboarding process was an exercise in frustration. Despite spending over seven hours on manual entry, the system’s technical inadequacies made the transfer impossible.
Key Failures for Potential Users to Note:
• The "Whack-a-Mole" Search Box: The stock selection box is nearly unusable. Typing a name gives you a micro-second to select before the list scrolls wildly or goes blank. I had to restart searches for 80% of my 88 stocks.
• The "ETFs Only" Initial Bug: Initially, the transfer box would only show ETFs and Funds. It took multiple emails for "Stocks" to magically appear as an option—suggesting backend fixes are reactive rather than proactive.
• Meaningless Data Validation: The system forces an "End of Day" price check that is fundamentally flawed for long-term investors. For stocks bought in multiple tranches over years (dips and spikes), there is no "Multi-Purchase" option. You are forced to fabricate a single "average" entry, which the system then rejects if the arbitrary price doesn't hit a specific daily range.
• Small Entry Windows & No Drafts: The UI is cramped, the scrolling speed is poorly calibrated, and there is zero confirmation that your progress is being saved.
• The "3-Stock Stand-off": After manually entering 87 stocks, I was told 3 (ET, SRUUF, and MPLX) were not accepted. Instead of allowing me to simply delete those 3 and proceed with the other 84, the Saxo AI informed me I would have to restart the entire 88-stock entry from scratch.
Verdict:
Requiring a client to manually type in a large portfolio rather than using industry-standard electronic transfer protocols is archaic. I have cancelled my application and requested a refund of my £100 deposit. I am moving to somewhere like Interactive Brokers (IBKR), who may offer the automated, professional service a serious investor expects.

Hi John,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m really sorry to hear how frustrating the transfer process was for you — spending that amount of time trying to complete an onboarding task is clearly not the experience we aim to provide.

We do support portfolio transfers regularly and have hundreds of clients successfully transferring positions into Saxo each week, so the issues you describe are certainly not typical. That said, from what you’ve outlined it sounds like something may have gone wrong during the process and I’d really like the opportunity to look into this personally and help resolve it for you.

If you’re open to it, please feel free to contact me directly and I’ll be happy to assist with the transfer or review what happened, my number is 0207 151 2033, email stuh@saxomarkets.com

If you still have the portfolio details, I’m confident we can find a smoother way to complete the transfer for you.

Thanks again for the feedback — it’s genuinely helpful and I’d welcome the chance to turn this experience around for you.

Best regards,
Stuart

Onboarding with Saxo

Have just been through an Onboarding process with Saxo to allow our company to invest in the markets using Saxo as a broker. It is a time consuming process bus was made very easy by the Saxo team and in particular by Charlotte. She was in very regular communication with us and explained each step clearly and efficiently. Clear instructions were given as to the documents we needed to provide and timeframes were given as to when we were to expect a response.

Hi Masroor

Thanks for the 5 stars and for calling out Charlotte. Company onboarding can take a bit of time, so I’m really glad she kept everything clear and on track with regular updates, straightforward document guidance and clear timelines. I’ll make sure your feedback reaches her and the team.

If there’s anything you need as you get started, just let us know. Thanks for choosing Saxo.

To avoid if you want transparency of…

To avoid if you want transparency on executions.

I am still extremely unhappy about their execution flow on Toronto stock exchange esp. on illiquid stocks.
They place only half of the order on TSE, the second half supposedly placed on "other liquidity providers" which their trading desk has no clue about. This lack of transparency could easily hide front-running, trading against their market-maker without giving me fair price executions. I have no idea whether this lack of transparency is even consistent with regulations.
Anyway, this smart routing is just inefficient and seems to have been designed without valuable input from anyone who understand how the market actually moves.

Jaya the customer service agent helped…

Jaya the customer service agent helped solve a tricky account issue , and 2 other agents previously could not solve it before her. It was a slightly tricky request possibly.

She got the answer then forwarded me a email in the case log and gave it back to me for my records. very good service. She went above and beyond and her english seemed very good. Response time good, everything met well. Knowledge good too.

also saxo in general has lowered its monthly fees for stock ISA its very cheap now per month and the dealing fees too have got much more cheaper..

the one small issue I saw is that in order to take part in votes for shares on company decision there is a charge of 5 USD per Share / vote to vote. So unless its a giant company ( very high stock price per share usually) it seems you will pay many multiples higher than your shares value just to cast every single vote 5USD each!!! Not sure this is just saxo doing this issue with votes being exorbitantly expensive or its industry wide? But either way its too expensive and gives smaller share holders less voting rights as they are priced out.

Hi

Thanks so much for the 5 stars and for calling out Jaya by name. I’m really glad she could sort a tricky issue after a couple of false starts — I’ll make sure your feedback reaches her and the team. Great to hear you’ve noticed the lower Stock ISA fee and reduced dealing costs too.

On the voting fee you mentioned: thanks for flagging it. Fees for shareholder voting can vary by market and reflect third‑party costs in the custody chain, but I appreciate your point about the impact on smaller holdings. I’ve passed this on to the team that reviews our corporate action pricing.

Thanks again for the thoughtful review — we really appreciate it.
