GBHard to contact a person on the Investment Team Wire instructions were clear and I have sent wire funds before for an investment in 2022, but this time I did not receive an email verifying the wire was received, even with a confirmation from my bank. I tried numerous times via email, to contact someone because there is nothing on the website other than FAQ’s no phone numbers, my investment will expire within 1 day if no one responds. Oh well

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.

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.

GBWent in with good intentions but got burned I "invested" in two companies and never got anything in return. I went into it with good intentions, thinking I was helping smaller companies expand. It felt more personal than Wall Street. But I never got anything in return. Twice burned, I will never use Wefunder again.

GBRegained 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).
