hi, what is this MDP you are talking about ? and what was the reason you got refund from Pepperstone ?
Overall
I've been using Pepperstone since I gave Think Forex the boot last month. I've noticed that their platform disconnects a few times each day, generally for about 3-4 minutes. They say one of them is for End of Day - so that's fair enough, but the others?
Anyone else seeing problems with them?

Good Borker!😄
Since Oct. 2011, I'm trading on Pepperstone. The spreads are very low, orders are executed very fast, so scalping EAs are doing well. But sometimes the connection to their server bocomes disconnected.😕
Overall
I chose Pepperstone because of their Aussie regulation and they are close to Singapore. I haven't had any tech issues because I don't use lousy EA's like MDP which rely on spikes for execution, which IMHO is recipe for failure. I had a friend program an EA for me and so far the EA is making money with Pepperstone Razor account. Can't speak for the standard account. 😄😄
Overall
I chose Pepperstone because of MDP. They had some technical issues, but their customer support was professional enough to accept what was happening and gave me a prompt refund. I hope this does not happen again and I’ll be watching.
Besides these sporadic tech issues, my Pepperstone account is up. MDP is doing really well with Pepperstone compared to other brokers.
Overall
I'm with Pepperstone for couple of months now. So far everything is good, their support and back office support also friendly. At first I'm using standard account, but then I've changed it to razor account.
If you want better connection between your MT4 terminal and their MT4 server, then choose VPS that located in US as far as I know they've changed their server location to US. I did this and my EA working smoothly on communicating for enter and exit trades with pepperstone server.
😄
And the additional feature that I like and hope it'll get more better in the future is their blackberry app. The app is nice, it has chart, your favorite pairs, and have the basic trading features. They only thing on this app that little disappoint me is when you are using BIS (blackberry internet service) to get connected to their server, you will unable to do that as you'll get an error message. But will get connected perfectly when you are within WiFi range.

Have noticed slow execution on some trades, which is a concern when the market is moving fast. Otherwise quite happy so far. One benefit not mentioned here, which I discovered by accident, is the Aslan Group rebate program. Monthly rebates are paid directly to your PayPal account, and they add up. Have already received my first rebate!
Overall
Be away from it, the platform is freezing when the Non-Farm data come. And always huge slippage nearly on each SL orders.

Just opened a live a/c "Razor"
Too early to be really sure, but a very encouraging first week. My scalping ea is trading twice as much, the platform is rock steady and support is very friendly and helpful.
I've used big brokers who made me so unhappy with 'trade context busy' 'failure to close' ...frozen platforms etc etc that it is a relief to be able to trade without all that stress.
I guess it's a bit like comparing a supermarket to a small shop...sometimes the small shop gives better service and better quality.
I wish them all the best for the future - at the moment I feel less stressed and I'm enjoying my trading once again.
😄

Comıssıon does not make you loose a treade but larger spread does.
I am also plannıng to open a Razor account. If you get verıfıcatıon please let me know.

I have used the standard and razor demo accounts, the spreads work out the same, you either pay for the larger spread or you pay the difference in commission.
I was interested in opening a live account with Pepperstone but was given this information which has made me think twice.
"Peperstone are a WL of AXI and licensed under CDM which doesn't even cover market making for FX. Meaning they're not properly licensed."
I will try to get verification on this.
Overall
Yes, they do. And here are the latest news:
