Disappointing Performance by ICICI Direct...

Recently, I came across an article that ICICI Direct has most number of trading customers in India. Sadly though, its performance shows just the opposite.

For last few weeks, I have been observing that the day market falls, ICICI Direct server also falls with it. Even today, when I try to log in, I got the message that server is getting more requests that what it can handle and hence, cannot be accessed. (You can also refer to the attachment)

For any investor, the situation is no less than a MURDER since he cannot buy/sell during falling markets. Where would he go now? What will he do? He is stuck with ICICI all because their servers are now no more than ABACUSS machines used in Medieval Era.

By no means, ICICI can do this with its customers and through this forum, I would like to suggest anyone who is willing to open trading account with ICICI that please do it at your own risk. The days are near when you too will be writing a forum about "Pathetic Performance by so called #1 trading house in India"

Who says ICICI is good for traders? It's only OK for an investor, who does delivery based trades with much less frequency.

minks1980 Explore other options, There is lot of suggestions available on this site, which would help you selecting better broker.

minks1980 you are absolutely right. The ICICI direct services are getting pathetic day by day, there servers are always down when the market is down, moreover I get strange messages in the peak time like Service Unavailable, Active Server Pages Error Scriped Timed Out etc. Its a very big eye opener for all of them who think that ICICI is No.1 Trading House and are willing to open an account with it. My Suggestion to all my friends out here is that open your eyes and explore for more options in the market which are definitely better than ICICI.

Absolutely right. i have missed so many trading opportunties because of ICICI direct being down during market hours. I wish somebody takes them to task for all this. And to top that they charge such huge brokerages.

I agree...... ICICI Direct is really a disappointment when is comes to busy working hours.

ICICI Direct is seriously turning from bad to worse to pathetic...

Since Thursday, it is showing no change in indices values (both Sensex and Nifty) and what's more... Their systems are getting lethargic day by day... Is any ICICI direct people listening???????

If yes, kindly view the screenshot attached herewith and do something about it....

Even today, when markets were going down in the early trade, ICICI Direct was displaying two different charts for NSE and BSE....

Why and How these mistakes occur by ICICI Direct - so called India's largest broking house- is soemthing which is not easy to digest...
