Vantage uses the same brand across separately incorporated regional businesses. This profile leads with the UK account menu and then keeps the Australian service distinct, because the two websites publish different commission schedules and legal protections.[1][3]

Fees & holding costs
Sections ↑Execution & trading rules
Sections ↑The UK client agreement treats margin requirements and close-out controls as account terms. The account-opening communications identify the applicable margin-call and stop-out settings; an Australian or international leverage headline should not be substituted for those settings. A deposit in transit does not remove an existing margin obligation.[15][13]

Protection & regulation
Sections ↑Opening an account & support
Sections ↑Vantage UK accepts disputes at [email protected] or +44 (0)20 7043 5050. For an execution complaint, its procedure asks for the affected order numbers, a description, supporting evidence and the requested resolution through the Trade Investigation Form. General UK support is [email protected] with a published 24/5 service; sending an ordinary support query is distinct from supplying a complete trade-investigation request.[14][13]
