GBMore Support/ Secondary Market It is offering the opportunity for non-accredited investors to buy into startups. However, more support is needed: 1. updates are not sent to investors e-mail accounts usually so updates are often missed. 2. Investors are not always notified of the failure or functionality status of an investment. This is important for tax purposes. 3. WeFunder has no secondary market so investors can trade and sell investments 4. The system is flawed. Some old investments don't show up. The system seems stuck at a certain amount of investments.

GBService Improving 1/6/2023: Wefunder reached out and helped me with my issue. They also provided a phone number. Hope my future interaction with them stays positive. ****************************************************************** If I could select zero stars I would. Reached out multiple times about an issue I had on an investment and it took almost two weeks for someone to respond. It doesn't matter if it's the year end holidays, there's no excuse for this poor service! I even reached out to Atakama for help and they sent you emails on my behalf. Unbelievable! Why don't you offer a phone number? Afraid of getting yelled at for this perfect example of horrendous service? Get your act together!!

GBSlow to verify my identity Slow to verify my identity. Also, confusing auto reply messages about the status of my investment. Your customer service team was responsive and helpful. Unclear if they are people or bots, but at least that system is working. This is an issue, because it casts doubts over whether or not my investment will go through or be cancelled. I would be very disappointed if the investment was cancelled because of bugs in your platform. And yes, I am a first-time user. Wefunder is not making a great first impression.

DKCustomer Support line While I had an overall positive experience with Wefunder, I had a very non optimum dealing from customer support just recently. This was later address and I was happy with their final answer from customer support. Recently one of the company they featured and fundraised for (Here.co), ceased operation and is shutting down. I inquired on the Wefunder customer support line. While I fully understand that it is part of the agreement that I might lose up to the whole value of the investment, their first answer was quite short and uncaring, they pcorrected this in their second answer. I would have thought that since they had raised a consistent amount of money for Here.co on their fundraising rounds, that they might be able to give SOME help and assistance to investors like me, to at least give some directions on precise contact point in Here.co who would be dealing with this matter. Again I understand the terms of the investment and the risks but I believe that Wefunder customer support could have been more helpful in this situation. They did explain and were more helpful in their second answer.

GBI won't be using WeFunder again. The site is a bit confusing, it's hard to find terms of investment, the company I invested in went under before the funding round closed taking $600k of investment with it on and now my K1 tax documents are late.
