I am very, very satisfied with Smartbroker’s service. I had a securities transfer to Smartbroker, and everything went exactly as it should. The questions I had were answered within a day. This is an experience I haven’t been able to have with other brokers. When it comes to service, responsiveness, and professionalism, Smartbroker is my number one so far. I’ll be transferring the rest of my portfolio to Smartbroker in the future.

Transferring the Depot to another broker is taking now 8 weeks. If I get a respond it is mostly lousy excuses.
The price data for stocks is never up to date.

After a long upgrade period from smartbroker to smartbroker+ and many challenges, I think that they have finally made the successful transformation. Of course there might be some minor things that need improvement, but all in all I have experienced super fast execution orders, real-time data, many exchanges to select and even customer service reacts within proper time. So I don't think that I will go anywhere soon. Since there are still many negative reviews, I'd recommend to either introduce a little gift for those customers, who stayed during the upgrade phase or something to show appreciation.

Please be warned that when booking this service, you will not be able to reach the customer service! I have written numerous e-mails and placed hundreds of phone calls, but could not reach them. The most tragic event happened today, 14th December, when an automated phone secretary let me know that the phone service was reachable until 5PM only. In fact I called at 3PM, during work hours. Migration from smartbroker to smartbroker+ was not successful and I tried to reach them about this issue. My only option is now to sell everything on smartbroker and find a better provider.

Just keep your hands off Smartbroker. Six weeks ago, I gave the order to transfer my depot to another bank. Nothing has happened, except that my new bank has informed me that nothing has happened yet. Smartbroker does not respond to written support requests. In the meantime, I have contacted the (German) banking regulator.

I have been chasing them since one month as the shares transfer planned for October didn't work. Impossible to reach anyone at the customer service phone number (I tried 50 times during the past 4 weeks and in 100% of the cases I was waiting 10 minutes and then the calls gets automatically ended) no one replies by Email. After reaching a manager via LinkedIn I finally received a call from someone saying that effectively there was an issue in my case with the share transfer and that they would solve it...by 10 days ago. But of course it was not solved and again no one can be reached and no one answers. Absolutely horrible company!

The old Smartbroker was ok. The switch to Smartbroker Plus is an unmitigated disaster!
The app does not work, the transfer of my portfolio has not happened and there is no communication by the company. NONE.
no email response, telephone helpline cuts out after 8 min waiting (numerous tries), the chat is just a robot with no intelligence- no humans.
I am going to wait for the trnasfer to Smartbroker Plus to be completed. The I'll leave to a reliable broker with customer service.
Awful!!
Amended after reply from Smartbroker:
They suggest phonong them to discuss my concerns. Typical customer service BS - you can't get through on the phone line. It cuts out after 8 minutes.
Smartbroker - never again!

The worst service ever.
They just dropping calls and not answering to emails.
Do not trust them, you will have problems with getting your money back from this company.
Added 18.10.2023 after a "feedback" from Smartbroker:
In your tickets system already more than 150000 tickets (this number is from ticket confirmation mail)! Isn't it an alarm for you?
And with the provided phone I tried a dozen of times with no results. Have you ever tried to call to your support at all?
Disappointing support and service.

Smartbroker offers a horrible user support. They literaly do everything to revent you moving your assets away from them. Anything from Tax examption to bank statement can only be requested by mail.
Its the worst user interface of all brokers.

Absolutely worst customer experience. They do not help at all with simple requests and are even rude. The usual response I get from them is "I can't tell you and I don't know who can tell you". Their trick is to shuttle you between their bank (BNP Paribas -- who are also abusive in a passive aggressive way with their customers) and themselves without any help. I am in contact with a lawyer to deal with the issues they have created for me.

Worst customer service ever. This company does not take their customers seriously. My account has been blocked for 3 months in spite of the multiple promises of customer service reassuring that the account will be unblocked. Extremely disappointing. Now I will close my account and look for a better broker - rather to pay more and have a decent service than having this useless cheap service.

While trying to perform a trade I realised that my account is blocked. No access to my money and assets. After contacting support I was asked to send a copy of residence permit. I did that and 2 weeks later there's still no answer from support and account is still blocked. I asked again and got no answer at all.
Other banks and brokers also asked my residence permit in relation to Russian war and sanctions, so I guess that's the reason. Although Smartbroker is the only broker that blocked my account. I'm sure that mistake will be eventually resolved, but it seems to be an extremely unreliable broker.
Update: contacted by support, the issue has been resolved.
