Brokers and pip spreads.

As always i'm looking for anything that may give me the tiniest edge, I just came across this IB that gives these spreads.

EUR/USD 1.8 Pip
GBP/USD 2.8
USD/CHF 2.8
USD/JPY 1.8

anyone can verify this as a reliable IB ?

so far i've tried Refcofx (i've since closed that account due to the bankruptcy scandal) and Forex.com which I actually find to be rather crap. Forex.com not only has a your standard pip range i.e - 3pips for EUR/USD, but I find that the tradeing platform itself is slow, and unresponsive. Pyramiding is near impossible using this platform and I have a nagging suspicioun that they shave pips off the actual price. Simply becuase I use the metatrader4 platform as well as esignal's advanced Get (which is kind of also crap btw).

I'm mainly a range trander, but will also follow an obvious trend. I make on average 5-10 trades in a night, so if you can imagine saving 1 or two pips per trade, that adds up!

Anyone else looking at all these new IBs popping up everywhere with very good pip spreads?
