VectorVest Stock Advisory for Negative User Reviews
✓ Costs money for appSaid free and then it now makes me pay to have it like a week later. All my stocks I have don’t show up on this app. Don’t bother..Version: 1.23.5
✓ Pretty but uselessLive market data is freely available, but no live market info on this app..Version: 1.18.10
✓ The app doesn’t workThe app is slow to load the tabs and once clicked I can’t see and details on them. I tried the widgets for it which also say unable to load..Version: 1.19.1
✓ Not too bad but pricey and overratedIt’s not a bad app and makes data a bit more visual with recommendations you can actually figure out yourself if you read financial related papers and news, and you’re alert about what is happening in the market. Subscription is a little pricey in comparison to what the app provides..Version: 1.21.1
✓ Not satisfied.Did a free trial. Looked at the highest rated stocks, made a list and 10 days later they hadn’t done any better than random chance. Didn’t cancel in time, got charged. You can’t cancel unless you WRITE A LETTER or call by phone. Okay I called by phone twice and had been on hold for an hour the first time waiting, about 35 minutes the second time. They make it difficult and inconvenient to cancel. They basically force you to call to cancel so that they can try and convince you not to, by offering a free extra month or something. Their recommendations are no better than chance from what I can tell. They’re over a hundred dollars per month. Many of these reviews on the App Store seem fake. Very unhappy with Vector Vest, strongly recommend to avoid..Version: 1.17.3
✓ Educate yourself is the only real wayJust teach yourself how to become a trader. Use the money instead to buy stuff to educate yourself. This may work for some people. I would highly not recommend to anyone. I’m not here to trash anything. The site has a lot of work put into it. There are a lot of great things they offer. I just think the algorithm they use and there core stock picking beliefs may just be a bit off from the reality of how the market works..Version: 1.23.14
✓ Cost to get lots of advertisingWhy pay so much just be bombarded by more advertising. Disappointed from that point of view. I also assumed that paying the premium for the app would also allow log in from a computer browser- nope only app access for the fancy charts. Finally ending with Vector Vest being hacked and not getting anything for my subscription for the last half month. Not their fault for being hacked- well, yes it is. Shame on this greedy service provider.Version: 1.23.14
✓ It’s pretty but that’s about itThe app is actually well done with a great UI and good stability for its function but that’s about where the good stuff ends. They treat you like a beginner even if you have experience. Some of their analysis is spot on but others, not so much. The biggest problem is sorting through all the junk to find good recommendations. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to their algorithm. Then they flood you with notification spam for things like Stock Market 101 course and try to sell you on other courses they have. Plus I got about 10 other companies all spamming me as soon as I signed up. It’s like they sold my email and phone number the second I signed up. I know it was them b/c I used a unique iCloud number to protect my real email address and I’m glad I did. Thankfully I used a burner number also. Overall, not what I was hoping for. Has a real scammy feel to it..Version: 1.27.1
✓ Unable to switch countryDownloaded the 14 day trial version. Canadians trade US and Canada stocks.After you select the country to Canada and you want to switch to US I am not able to switch to US or find a way to do it. It should be a no brainer. Fix this pls and we can be in business hopefully..Version: 1.17.2
✓ Misleading subscription detailsI downloaded a trial version and had access to multiple markets... as soon I purchased the subscription I was limited to ONE MARKET! Multiple subscriptions are required to access more markets... in my case, Canada and USA, $12.99 x 2. Update: I called the support number, unfortunately when you purchase through the App Store, VV is unable to provide the needed support. So to conclude, if you’re interested in the VV app, purchase through their website and save yourself the headache of dealing with Apple..Version: 1.18.1
✓ Money grabbingBeware if you want to cancel - you have to cancel it yourself through your iTunes settings on your phone. I didn’t know much about these things and it took me 3 weeks of asking for help from VV support to finally work out how to do it. This included several phone calls and emails with conflicting information being given each time and no follow through. If the programme has merit I will never know because of their appalling service.Version: 1.16.6
✓ Horrible appHorrible app! Their evaluation is mostly built upon hype. Therefore, you buy when the stock is at an high and chances are that their value will decrease soon after. You get a free trial so look into the graphics and pay attention to the buy and sell rating. You’ll notice that they suggest to buy when the price is too high and to sell with a loss. Dont lose money with this app. Make your researches and invest in your knowledge..Version: 1.18.10
✓ No GoodI’ve been investing for many years and have always managed to make money in the market. I’ve used this app for several months and took a very conservative approach in a very robust market but still lost money on a regular basis. Their information and recommendations seem to be old and outdated. My current challenge is trying to cancel my subscription. The app has no information or links on how to do so. Sent message to Support so we’ll see how that goes.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Money grabVery bad service.Version: 1.20
✓ Avoid at all costIt’s a con.Version: 1.13.1
✓ They will not give your money backWorst customer service and refund policy I have seen from a company. I tried the free 1 month trial. They do allow you to cancel auto renewal subscription online! You will have to call. I called a day after subscription renewal and they refuse to refund me. I left a voice message for the manager and he never returned my call!!!.Version: 1.21.6
✓ Great ideaFound this app and it has great information about stocks. Also, I love the sugestión to buy, hold or sell. I give the 3 stars because of the educational videos don't teach anything new about stocks. Also, I could not find many symbols because I chose Canada vs the US. Canada is the market to invest now, but still, want to see US stocks. Finally, the stocks prices are not as timely as Fidelity has different values than this app. With a few improvements, especially education this app has great potential. Note even fidelity educational videos are not teaching anything new or valuable at the moment to make selling it buying decisions..Version: 1.11.2
✓ Fraudulent appThey take 25$ for subscription, which literally not working. Their CS says that “I should contact Apple App Store support, since it is App Store can’t match subscriptin to app”. Useless app, useless CS, fraudulent subscription model - beware..Version: 1.29.1
✓ Can’t open the apps after updatePls note that the apps cannot be open after a version update yesterday!.Version: 1.15.1
✓ Cannot Purchase. Error: Cannot connect to iTunes Store (Code : 2)I tried purchasing the 2 week trial but it gives me the following message: Error: Cannot connect to iTunes Store (Code : 2).Version: 1.18.9
✓ I am not able to load the applicationIs there any issue with this app for IOS.Version: 1.23.14
✓ UselessCouldn’t even create an account..Version: 1.21.7
✓ Insane Amount of Spam EmailsAbsolutely insane amounts of spam emails. You try to unsubscribe, BUT THEY KEEP SENDING THEM!!!!! Piss off Venture Vest. I’m Reporting you to Apple..Version: 1.29.1
✓ Wanted To Purchase ButI wanted to purchase but sadly reading the reviews could see the problems people had cancelling, therefore didn’t really trial the app properly. Shame..Version: 1.9.2
✓ TrashJust another useless app unless paying for subscription. Idk why Apple allows these apps that are literally not usable without paying in the app. It is literally a paid app pretending to be free on the App Store. Apple doesn’t care if developers take advantage of their system..Version: 1.21.8
✓ The app is not workingTry to register account but get lock up at the next button several time. Update: installing a newest update on my phone, still have the same problem. Found out that I use automatically general strong password causing the issue. The app is okay to use but nothing special for pay monthly. But this app give you more stock to choose and invest. Anyway you need to do research and pick your own best stock. Nothing is set to make money, stock is risk but try to low your risk with your own experience..Version: 1.18.9
✓ Bad in editing portfolioAlthough the software itself is unique and this app is easy to use but there is a flaw that turned me very upset about it. If you create a portfolio and suddenly you got delivered an option that has a price different from the current price, the app will not allow you to enter your own price. It only ask you how much you want to spend and it will apply the current price. The other thing is that the screen in iOS will hide half the entry form which means the developers never tested this feature to predict how annoyed users will be in such a situation..Version: 1.18.10
✓ Paid for a month, tells me im not subbedI paid for a month for basic vector vest, when I log out this morning after 4 days of using it it tells me my “free trial” as expired and can’t use any of the functionality of the app. Yes I checked that I paid, and I was working for four days until today that nothing works anymore....Version: 1.21.6
✓ Worst service!!They will not cancel the account even if you want to and it’s not easy, they have charging my credit account for the past 3 months ($137/Month) though I have cancelled it before my trial period ends, I called customer care and they said that you have cancelled via the mobile app but not desktop app which does not make sense, why I have to cancel it on both the apps (mobile and web)??? also their guidelines and alerts about the stocks are useless, this is absolutely not a good company to rely on, stay away from it!!.Version: 1.21.8
✓ Don’t recommend for widgetDownloaded just to use the iOS 14 stock widget. After about 4 days it was blank and told me I needed to “upgrade” to continue using the widget. Wanting me to pay monthly even though I just wanted to use the widget. I’ll find another app. Response to the Dev’s response. I’m not reading the fine print or using the app, I have other apps I much rather prefer for charts/stocks and all I wanted this app for was the widget. IOS 14 is still new there will be more widgets developed and I am certainly not paying a subscription for a widget.Version: 1.19.2
✓ Expected real time quotesLike the announcement feature but the quotes are delayed even in the paid version..Version: 1.23.1
✓ Not recommended at allThis company took my monthly payment via the app store then supplied zero in return claiming that I hadn't paid despite me having a subscription confirmation plus full invoice from Apple prooving that I had. They then demanded that I pay them again direct and not via Apple. Eventually had to go back to Apple for a full refund..a lot of unnecessary hassle for nothing. I have never had anything similar happen on the app store before......Version: 1.6
✓ Robotrader & Profitlocker both MIA in Vectorvest IOS AppWe ought to be able to take advantage of the functionality that Robotrader & ProfitLocker Pro are “supposed” to offer using the convenience of our ubiquitous iPhones - however this functionality ain’t working on my Vectorvest App!!!! Disappointing……. There are still other issues however, they are for another time..Version: 1.24
✓ Rip offYou can only see stocks of one market per email account. Once your trial is up they have very little information and very basic charts. They found you for money on the app and send countless emails..Version: 1.18.5
✓ Not ADA CompliantThe one star ratings is for the app alone, and not for the vectorvest service. The service is good, but the app has some issues. I reported to vectorvest support way back in 2018 that the font size of the Friday views newsletter are too tiny for me to read, even with reading glasses. This issue has not been fixed so far. This is a failure per ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) guidelines. Please fix this issue asap. What I am asking for is the ability to increase font size. Thank you..Version: 1.26.2
✓ Does not let you cancel subscription easily!I downloaded the free trial, expecting to be able to cancel at any time, however I was then notified that the only way to cancel is through a paid number, which costed me over 10 pounds - just to sort out my account to be unsubscribed! Furthermore, the company then said that they were going to bill me through apple, and the extra costs are through apple and not them - therefore they can not refund me for any money that I did not intend to spend in the first place, due to their silly system which does not let you cancel subscriptions without phoning between hours (which most people are at work at). Please avoid this app... you will thank me later..Version: 1.8.1
✓ Worthless to say the least!Against my gut feeling i followed the sell advisory of this app and within a couple hours the stock gained over a dollar a share. Good thing it was a small investment or i would have lost a lot of money left laying on the table. Bit then in this market pennies do count. In my opinion this far, this app leaves a lot to be desired. I guess if you shoot enough bullets sooner or later one is bound to hit the target but i dont think i want them shooting stray bullets on my dollar..Version: 1.18.5
✓ The app is hungry for personal dataWhy do you need my name and email before I can even use this app?.Version: 1.19.1
✓ DisappointedGoing through getting to know this app I was pretty impressed & though I would subscribe after the free trial is over. Unfortunately though I’ve noticed now it gives me market info from the previous day which undermines the app somewhat.Version: 1.16.6
✓ Missing featuresI’ve been using it for a few months as a premium subscriber and have set up a portfolio of stocks that I own. Unfortunately, the app does not do a good job notifying when it’s time to sell stocks. All I want is for it to send me an alert that a stock in my portfolio changed recommendation from buy to hold to sell, but it doesn’t do that. Even a visual indicator is missing unless you click on each stock individually. I want this in one view for all stocks in the portfolio. This should be a no brainer but VectorVest support is for the most part unresponsive. I see that this has been requested by others many times already so I’m not holding my breath. I don’t think I can continue paying for the app because of this..Version: 1.23.2
✓ DO NOT SIGN UP or DOWNLOAD THIS APPSCAMMER ALERT, BEWARE !!! They make you type in your address info and your info and then dont let you sign up and freeze, you just cannot use the app at all because they would not let you in so you have to delete the app, then later email you without your permission to advertise their classes and to join their group for a flat fee . Scammer trying to steal information and advitising, never trust a group who trying to ask you to join their group, it will always be pump and dump scam. Do your DD!.Version: 1.23.14
✓ SucksMakes you pay , also delayed 15 minutes. Not cool.Version: 1.18.2
✓ 15 minutes data delayEven if you pay $14CAD/month there’s still 15 minutes delay on data. Their buy&sell ratings are also delayed or just not right..Version: 1.23.9
✓ Buy sell ratings seem to be at the peak of a trend that almost always crashes soon afterEvery stock recommended has seemingly always had a huge crash shortly after, example Jaguar mining, few weeks ago was at the top of their charts, dropped 30% this week. This app literally just identifies peaks of a rally that you’ve already missed and recommends you buy the stock, 2 weeks later sell at a substantial loss. Also can’t seem to cancel my subscription.Version: 1.21.8
✓ Free TrialDon’t sign up it’s a trap. After free trial the start billing you..Version: 1.8.1
✓ Highly unreliable; WARNING: You May Blow Your AccountThey do give you buy and sell rating on stock that are very risky and volatile. You may be lucky and make a fortune. You may be a professional who have experience and know when to buy and sell, in that case you don’t need this app. You can you the think of swim scanner! But if you are a naive new trader chances are you will blow your account listening to their suggestions. Be careful if you insist on using it. The subscription is not worth it..Version: 1.16.6
✓ Cancel subscriptionsI wish I had read the reviews before downloading the app! It’s not clear that you are committing to a paid subscription - I’m in the process of trying to cancel it but other reviews would suggest this might be difficult. Steer clear!!.Version: 1.13.2
✓ The way they handle business looks like a SCAM!They make you get a trial or susbcribe using a credit card online to find out that you can’t cancel unless you spend houra on the phone waiting to talk with a live customer support agent. Are you for real? Why not offer a way to cancel from the app or website. If you don’t call to sign up you shoudn’t have to call to cancel. They did not send a confirmation email to state my trial was cancelled. I hope they won’t end up charging my card pretending it was not cancelled. Stay Away!! Don’t waste your time!.Version: 1.18.5
✓ Even one star is too much for this applicationIt doesn’t have all the stocks that I am searching for. Stock invest is much better.Version: 1.21.8
✓ Not reliable!I check your App everyday, for example you guys put the sign for market in the morning bullish and then 4hrs later change it to bearish! it doesn’t make sense to me at all! I know the market is currently not stable but when I trust you guys and buy stocks with bullish signs in the morning then 4 hrs later when the market goes down I loose a lot of money then you change it to bearish. If you guys are in this business for a long time and professional, you should give more reliable guidances to your users. Also I noticed you mention for some stocks and recommend to buy it but it goes down and I loose a lot of money as I bought it per your recommendation!.Version: 1.8.1
✓ HorribleWhy did this useless app just charge me $100 that I did not agree to?!? This thing is garbage don't download it.Version: 1.23.12
✓ StopStop locking my screen !.Version: 1.23.14
✓ Worst customer service I have ever experiencedThis has been the worst customer service I have ever experienced, you can’t even get a password reset that actually works. You send them an email and get an email back and no one ever resolve your issue nor they try to reach out to call you. You call them and you’re on an indefinite hold and you leave your name and phone number and no one called you back. You try to call them on a Friday before Easter and the entire staff has taken off, if they want to run a business they need to be open when convenient for the customer. If they’re looking to do this as a hobby then they probably should pick something else to do..Version: 1.8.1
✓ MergeHi Merge Canadian and US exchange , Have more data on companies , financial info, And latest news.Version: 1.23.14
✓ Chart is not accurateMe and some of my friends have been using it for a long time .The mobile version chart is not accurate some of the stock,i used to like it until I found out the chart is not accurate and this is a stock market ,the chart is very important and we paid membership fee every month for what ? If they don’t fixed the problem We will cancel our membership very soon..Version: 1.26.2
✓ Don’t look at the stars read the reviewsYou pay $25 basically to even get in the app and then if you want notifications when to buy or sale you have to pay another $50 and then if you want notifications on when to buy options you have to pay another $50 it’s nothing but a money maker do not waste your time or money downloading this app.Version: 1.28.5
✓ No free trial/ crooksI signed up with the promise of a 14 day trial and they charged me the full $26 dollars right away with no trial. Called customer support and was told if I unsubscribed right away the amount would be refunded back on my visa (which was untrue, still no refund). Don’t fall for their free trial scam!.Version: 1.18.8
✓ Can not loginInstalled the app but when tried to setup the login and clicked “next”, the button “next” greyed out and nothing happened. App stays on the same screen without any prompts. So what’s the point?.Version: 1.18.9
✓ Market stockAfter Canada market has been chosen, system does not allows me to switch into American market.Version: 1.17.2
✓ Limited coverage of stocksMany smaller stock, especially mining ones are not covered. Sent them requests to add but no answer. A premium subscriber..Version: 1.21.6
✓ Seems like a lot of good reviews, but....Found the app very difficult to use as the text was tiny on the iPad. Even worse, it was of low contrast, blue on white, which made it worse. Looked in the prefs to make it more readable, but there was no support for that So from this users point of view, kind of unusable.Version: 1.18.8
✓ Emails that you can’t unsubscribe fromThey keep sending me emails. First email I clicked unsubscribe, and it said that this unfortunately doesn’t unsubscribe me from ALL emails. There’s no option to do so. Today I got an email with no unsubscribe button..Version: 1.23.14
✓ App issueI am um able to login or use the app. I canceled my subscription thinking it was that but it didn’t help. Is there some type of problem from the last update?.Version: 1.23.14
