FVP Trade: a serviced address at 71-75 Shelton Street London WC2H 9JQ
FVP Trade publishes 71-75 Shelton Street London WC2H 9JQ in London, which is a serviced office address rather than a floor of its own.
What the team found
FVP Trade publishes 71-75 Shelton Street London WC2H 9JQ as its office. Nothing outside carried the company's name, and the floor the address points to is a shared or serviced office suite rather than a floor the company occupies itself.
A serviced address is not evidence of anything dishonest, and it is not evidence of an office either. It is a registered address and a desk that any number of companies can hold at once, so it tells a client nothing about whether FVP Trade has staff there.

Who else uses this address
15 other brokers in this set publish an address on Shelton Street. When that many financial firms name one building, it is usually a registered-office or mail-forwarding service, and an address of that kind tells you where the post arrives rather than where anyone works.
Across the 15 other visits to that address, the team found nothing 8 times and could not get access 7 times. Among them are Fx Praime, Mega Trades Pro and Pride Forex Asia.
This visit ended differently from most of the others, which is worth weighing against the pattern at the address.

Reading the checks together
In short, the building was the one the address names, there was no sign for the company outside and reception could not say either way. No single check settles an outcome on its own, which is why each one is listed above rather than folded into a verdict.
What this outcome means
Access restricted. Building or security restrictions prevented the researcher from completing the planned checks.
A field survey confirms only what was observed at the stated address and time. It does not verify regulatory status, client-money handling, trading conditions or financial strength.
