SCAM REFERRAL PROGRAM Begged 4 friends to sign up and invest $5 so I could get a referral bonus. Confirmed with all of them that they did so, still did not receive the bonus. Total scam to get more people to sign up and I'm really disappointed. Customer service was useless.

I have been satisfied with my Acorns account until now I have been satisfied with my Acorns account until my experience with their referral program. The link my referrals used was expired BUT they were able to create the account and I did not receive the referral bonus. Poor marketing. If the link was expired the user should have gotten a message to get a new link. Instead, it allowed them to open the account and I lost out on about $1,000 referral bonus.

This company has allowed me to save… This company has allowed me to save money especially being a single mother with 5 kids and raising my brother's 3 children also. So this company has made me be able to save a little at a time. Eventually it all adds up. Thank you Acorns.

🛑 Please Read Before Joining Acorn’s was my “Go To” investment platform for young people using debit cards for their day to day purchasing while they acquired their first credit card. For years I would strongly encourage folks to join and simultaneously invest as they debit. I have lost track of just how many people joined because of my recommendation. For over five years I have never needed to call Customer Service. My experience was so toxic that I will never recommend or encourage anyone to join this institution. Tread carefully before joining. Their Customer Service Center is NOT based in the U.S. and dealing with anything that is t straight forward is painful.

My experience has been quite smooth… My experience has been quite smooth unlike many of the low rating reviews. I'm not saying, here, that their experiences respectively shouldn't be considered. I have never tried nor needed to close my account, so im not sure how that may unfold if that event should arise. However, I've had absolutely no problems with Acorns. When I needed to withdrawal, I received the money in due time if not sooner. I love the ease of making quick, one-time deposits along with the recurring deposits, and being a "set it and forget it", its made it very easy to save not only for myself, but my daughter. The round ups are a wonderful feature, better than putting change in a jar, at least there is a chance for it to grow, rather than collect dust. That being said, it's still wise to diversify :)
