Changed from 1 star to 3. In most applications on mobile, you manage subs in the app itself, what you really have to do is cancel it through the app store, in this case the google app store. There is an area to manage subscriptions where you can cancel a sub. Since the first smartphone I have been online, bought apps, subs and more. Never have i ever seen this method to cancel a sub. If vector vest can take my money through the app, you should beable to cancel through the app.
Reviews for VectorVest Stock Advisory
← Back to VectorVest Stock AdvisoryGood statistics but focused on short term trades. All the companies picked here lost value over time. I'm better off trading based on Cramer's advice. They don't send you a reminder about the trial expiration, and will charge you for the next month - customer service isn't strong here. I wouldn't recommend them.
The app never works when you need it to. I always get the error "unknown error and can't log in" and even when it is working it will always suggest stocks that are overextended and they will ultimately go down and you will lose money do not waste money on this app just do your own analysis, read 10qs and 10ks, follow earnings and use basic indicators like Ema and rsi ive done that and made way more than any of their silly penny stocks they pump. Plus they do deals for 1 dollar so don't pay 9.99
The app is okay, the overall experience is terrible. Signed up for premium trial, downloaded app, registered and logged in. Downloaded Windows software Vector Vest7, tried to log in with no luck. Sent email with request of assistance, zero response other than an auto reply. For ANY service costing this much the level of support should be top notch. Cancelled trial, unistalled all software.
BUYER BEWARE! This company provides questionable investment recommendations as well as common sense recommendations that can be provided for free elsewhere (TD Ameritrade stock scan via thinkorswim desktop app). Also you will have difficulty canceling your subscription. I canceled my subscription 4 days ahead of the billing date and was still charged for the next month.
Had an active annual premium subscription paid for the next year. The app logged me off so I logged in then I noticed that the app down graded my premium subscription back to a free subscription even though I had an active premium subscription that was paid in advance for the full year. I called VectorVest Customer Service and was told basically sorry nothing they can do since you went through the playstore and its a third party. Horrible company and app.
Very nice looking app, forced 2 day trial. After trial, free version of app is crippled to top graphs only. Mobile version has 15 minute delay. PC version is offered with no delay with free mobile app. $9.99 / 1st month, then $137 a month? I invest for fun, always less than $1000. As nicely done as this app is, they make money and it cost big to play their game. They do not have a little guy option.
The app mislead me on a stock. Lost a big chunk of $$$$ when they said sell the stock. An hour later it changed to hold then sell. Next day it went up. I don't recommend to trust this app and also it's about 10 to 15 minutes behind the market. What I will say is when it says to sell it is probably the time to buy it because the stock is low if you traded stocks for a while you will know that. I wonder if it's just their way of making money on the stock.
❗TO CANCEL ON ANDROID: Go to Google Play Store, Manage Subscriptions.❗ Signed up for a free trial and did not like your service, so I wanted to unsubscribe on my Android app. Not from e-mail, from your service. There is no unsubscribe option in the app and Android does NOT require you to call in to cancel an app service. I'm 13th in line on the phone and have been for 30 minutes. This service is a scam and will be reported as such. UPDATE: After 45 minutes, I have moved ONE place in line.
Don't even bother to install. It was an amazing app with some limited abilities that still were useful. I was about to recommend it on my Twitter, but today when I logged in everything was locked. TradingView offers the same screening for free, so this app doesn't make any sense now, I'm not going to pay for the basic screener
Paid $20 + tax never got my money's worth. They require a subscription for basically information you can find for free and telling you their preferences in stocks. I spoke to customer service and it felt like I was speaking to a sales rep. who was trying to upsell me other services for real time data.
VectorVest UK version is only end of day, so latest advice and timing info for the UK is only available about 4 hours after the UK market close. USA version of VectorVest is intraday so great if you trade US stocks during US market hours. You have access to both plus Canada, Europe and Australia. This is a great app for finding stocks with sound fundamentals. It has an outstanding Unisearch tool which is awesome. I have only given it 4 stars as the UK is not on real time like the US.
Been using the app for a couple of weeks now. I signed up for vectorvest trial, longtime IBD subscriber. The mobile app is awesome and I highly recommend it. VectorVest is continuing to make improvements to the app. So I'm very happy to see that. I'm able to find really good stock ideas and stay on top of the market very quickly. The app works really well and is easy to use. I signed up for the premium membership.
Get the best of both Fundamentals and Technicals combined. Vector Vest is Momentum Base. If you understand simple technical analysis support and resistance you can make this app work wonders for you! 5***** on that note. That's the good part of the app! Now the bad part, You're not able to flip through stock graphs. Flipping back and forth from stock graphs to stock details is a BIG WASTE OF TIME!! "Please fix this issue we would like to flip through stock graphs." Also fix app from crashing
Overall good for ideas. I find that the premium watch lists don't necessarily focus on quality equities, rather on momentum. Unfortunately, after the particular equities on on the rise or fall, the recommendations they offer are behind the ball and the major gains are gone. The learning principles they offer are excellent. The stop limit recommendations are too loose if you want to hold your gains. Great app for those who are ultra conservative with a small portfolio.
What a scam the subscription is. Quick to take your $19.99 every month, but when you want to cancel, you can't get ahold of them. They never return your phone calls.. First of all this is just basic technical analysis with no thought at all. It's so simple a twelve-year-old can do it. Technical analysis software is in almost every single Financial program. You can get better technical analysis than this on YouTube. Free!
I got the app for the 2 week trial. The day it expired or a day after I cancelled my subscription. There for they had already charged me the 19.99 monthly fee. A few days later I tried to log in they had downgraded me to the free version. I tried to contact them and they said they didn't have history of my email linked to an account even though the withdrew the money from my bank account.
I have been investing / trading for a couple of decades now and studying markets longer. This app is an excellent bite size version of the full Vector Vest system at a fraction of the price. It is a solid addition to the systems I had already built and great tool to add to your collection. I recommend the available training for those who are not veterans in the field.
The app is constantly logging me out, I understand they may think this is a security feature, but if we wanted to secure the app, then it should be our responsibility to logout, it is extremely inconvenient to have to be logging back in to something you never logged out of, and they could also incorporate a pin login security feature, for more convenients. On the positive side, the app does provide a good structure to view stock information, and to sort through them, but the app is to expensive.
Ok, customer service is terrible, and they make it super hard to unsubscribe. Also, I bought the premium version on the app thinking I could use my account online as well...nope. You have to purchase the online version as well for the exact same price. They will not transfer accounts either. The crazy thing is, they say if I would have bought the online version 1st, then it would have given me access to the mobile version but not the other way around. This company feels like a scam.
