Have you ever worked hard to pass a prop firm challenge, only to be denied at the final step for something you didn’t expect? That’s exactly what happened to me with Funding Pips. I passed both phases of their challenge, but when it came time for verification, my account was flagged and rejected, not because of my trading, but because I let a friend use my documents to verify his own account.
Why Did This Happen?
Prop firms like Funding Pips have strict rules about account ownership and identity verification. Sharing your documents, even with good intentions, clearly violates their terms of use. When the system detects duplicate accounts or reused verification documents, it automatically flags both accounts, leading to disqualification if you passed all trading requirements.
The Lesson Learned
It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of passing a challenge and overlook the fine print. But the rules exist to keep the system fair and secure for everyone. Ignoring them, even by accident, can erase all your hard work in an instant3.
Moving Forward
If you’re chasing your trading goals, remember: success isn’t just about strategy and discipline in the markets-it’s also about integrity and following the rules outside of them. Let my experience be a reminder: always read and respect the terms, never share your documents, and keep your journey honest. The market rewards skill, but the firm rewards trust. Stay focused, stay compliant, and your breakthrough will come.
