Fraud Brokerage
Fraud Service Provider.

They make you fool by giving different-different plan and don't provide the base amount on which brokerage are charged.

Other Brokers provide you the full report like how charge are fixed and % of brokerage.

When trade are completed for one days, they don't send the summary of Brokerage.

If you have account in Edelweiss, please ask for full Brokerage ledger and trade volume on which brokerage are charged otherwise they charge you unnecessary....

I have my DMAT Account with Edelweiss Meerut. They charging extra brokerage amount from my account when i asked for sending my ledger details for the base amount on which brokerage are charging, they don't give the ledger details. Before one month they asked me to send Rs.10000 so that brokerage charges would be low. now I m asking for summary of my Rs 10000 but they are not providing..

Dislike : In the begining they explained me different about brokerage charges but when i open deemat account with Edelwiess they charged brokerage very high. Secondly, while contact customer executive who is handling my account he not explained all the brokerage packages and forced me to buy only Rs.10000 and Rs. 15000 brokerage plans.

I feel sorry on myself to have even dealt with this company for last 2+ years. Extremely unprofessional and have absolutely no empathy towards customers. Raising escalation to the highest level hasn't helped as well. Not sure what must be happening to other users. Forget about response.. They don't even bother to acknowledge the concern. Relationship office appointed on my portfolio and a level up to her are not even worth to mention on support aspect. I feel like wasting my time further even writing about then... Their job seems to just keep non transparent approach towards customer and fleece as much as they can to meet their own KRA's. Own calls to pick up sub average deals in user's portfolio on intraday has been the norm all this while. No approval taken on purchases. Killing the customer financially and applying hepthy charges towards interest seems to be the intent . Not even making customer aware about the picks and claiming money on all possible occasions. When questioned.. Assures to take care and within next few days.. Risk department of this organization selling your shares at almost 40% lesser price to nullify their debit used for purchase. No message at all for settling debit and When enquired.. Efficiently ignored all calls and messages and leaving the customer at his own fate to struggle and run from pillar to post to even check where to raise the concern. 100+ msgs and 50+ calls made but no clarity provided .. No consulting.. Absolutely a nightmare experience.
I as user will need to explore ways to get my concern addressed and I will not hesitate to go to all possible extent. Hard earned money of a consumer can't go wasted through such sub standard approach from this organization and channels involved.

I have had very bad experience with Edelweiss broking.
Was on advance brokerage plan. They suddenly increased minimum brokerage to 25 rupees per trade which was not a part of the original contract.
Then on several occasions they charged much more than the advance brokerage plan ( such as for offer for sale issues).
The resolution system is extremely bad.

@Kiran
Hi
As you said you have invested in SIP . You must have invested in MUTUAL fund SIP.
One thing you must know that investing in the capital market through SIP is a good idea as you get the benefit of the fall in the market.
But you should invest for at least three to five years.
you can not expect gain by investing for very short period.
I request you to stay invested for at least three years but do your own research about the funds . Do check the past performance of the funds you are investing or willing to invest
Thanks

Worst customer service in Mumbai. Nobody is bother to resolve the problem. It may take one week or two week when they wake up and call you about your problem.The desktop software TX3 is below average because it is not giving the real time share point. The screen shows one rate and the order book shows different rate while in other brokerage houses are showing the exact real time rate. It is very difficult for day trader to trade option trading in real time.

I am using Edelweiss broking since last 4 months. I did not face any issue till now. I am very happy with the service which RM provided for any query related to account. Brokerage is also same which was told during account opening and is comparatively low than other broker. Main advantage of using this broker is Deliver Leverage and NRML. Because of this feature i moved from other broker to Edelweiss.

Website is not as simple as Sharekhan, ICICI Direct etc. Also their customer care is not professional. I submitted the documents for FNO and equity delivery but they just activated for equity even after repeated reminders. No care about service requests and reminders. Poor service
