That's what I thought too. They told me there was a change in July 2024 from the regulator that allowed the switch to be done prior to the…

No, that's why they still send someone to read.

I just switched my electricity to Ovo and found out that I cannot send them a self-meter reading. Not only that but they are now charging…

What are the other Chess-sponsored platforms with $1 or less brokerage fee?

This. About to mention it too but in most cases, my trades were less than $10k so still less than Stake.

Hi, do you know how to close the account? Can I do it on the app?

Just got it today. Hope you get yours soon.

I joined on 14 Oct and got the $35 today. Already withdrew all of it since my $5 already lost 2 cents and I don't want to lose more. If a…

PS customer service and billing was terrible ... I just got my third monthly bill and they still made silly mistakes like the first and…
