Funding account issues There has been two separate incidence of moneys not able to be pulled form the bank account from the Wefunder platform. Yes, both times I've been helped diligently to fix the issue but took a long time and 'issue' is still unknown but got around it both times after many attempts. It can be frustrating but eventually was fixed. Wefunder is a growing company and a few bugs need to be worked out with the online system.

Democratization of the private investment market. Overall, it is a great site helping non- accredited investors get access to good investments that have always been denied them. It also helps accredited investors who want to spread their risk around by making smaller investments than are normally required by non CF or non reg A opportunities.

Regained access to my account/investment Lost access to my account. When I needed to check on things to see if my investment survived, I was honestly quite surprised that after not looking at it for 5 years, it was still there. Pleased to see that they worked with the startup to keep the record over the years. Today, it seems, most startup investments can't make it a few months let alone 5 years. As of the date of writing, I am very pleased. My investment survived, it has grown, and I have confidence I could probably walk another decade, come back, and know my capital is there (or at least a viable explanation as to why it collapsed to zero).

Slow 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.

More 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.
