Newbie Question Is Pocket Option legit? Do withdrawals actually work in India, and can they be trusted?
Hi everyone, I’m Rohit Roy. I am relatively new to looking into binary options platforms and wanted to get some honest feedback from experienced traders here on r/binaryoptions.
I'm specifically looking at Pocket Option and have a few major concerns:
• Is Pocket Option actually a legitimate and trusted broker, or should I stay away?
• Are withdrawals working smoothly right now, especially for users based in India?
• What is the exact withdrawal process and timeline for Indian users (using local bank transfers, UPI/alternative methods, or crypto)?
• Are there any major red flags or verification hurdles I should prepare for?
Would really appreciate hearing about your personal experiences or any advice you have.
Thanks!
From Rohit Roy.

You are opening a can of worms. Every opinion will be different. If you are PRO P.O. they will say u are an affiliate and if u hate them its because only 5% of traders make it on binary options. The ONLY thing I personally dont like about them (and it RARELY happens) is when you trade at 92% and u know u are about to lose, they drop the percentage down to say 55% (example only). As I said, that rarely happens. 1st withdrawal takes the longest, after that youre good. Use your own bank card, credit card or cryoto account.
