Trader lists two failed E8 Markets accounts in a run of prop firms with no payouts

A trader posting as @trenchkidXBT lists two E8 Markets accounts, a one-step 50K and a funded 25K, among prop-firm accounts from the past two months that produced no payout. The post names several firms rather than one, so it evidences the trader's own run rather than a pattern at any single firm.

E8 Markets: 2 reviewers since Sep 11 say its terms got stricter; 1 says a new country block hit an account he bought a year ago

Two of the six Trustpilot reviews E8 Markets drew since 09-05 say its terms have tightened, and one of them says a change hit an account he had already bought. Juan Trader (EC, 09-18, 1 star) says he bought an account a year ago and is now told he cannot keep trading because he is from Venezuela, which he says is a restricted country, and that no such restriction existed six months earlier. David Rodriguez (US, 09-11, 2 stars) says he has known E8 since 2022, that rules he once found flexible are now tight, and that a trade was closed mid session, while also saying he was paid in a day and a half. E8 Markets has not replied to either review.

FundingPips: 13 Trustpilot reviewers in a day say accounts were breached, blocked, closed or suspended over news; 11 say not high-impact

Thirteen distinct Trustpilot reviewers, publishing on 2026-09-21, say their accounts were breached, blocked, closed, suspended or terminated over a trade around a news event. Twelve are one-star, one is two-star. Eleven say the event was not red or high-impact; eight of them name Forex Factory. Five describe the firm's own calendar: one says it marked the same event restricted, one says the event appeared about 30 minutes later, one says medium events are treated as high-impact, one says the dashboard calendar showed no data, one says it listed only low-impact news. The firm has not replied to any of the 120 reviews pulled.
