Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) has been flagged by Australian Securities and Investments Commission for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
I was contacted by Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
The only good thing about Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) is that they remind you why regulation matters. I found them after doing extensive research. They are regulated in a jurisdiction with weak consumer protection. When things went wrong I had nowhere to turn. Stick to well-regulated brokers.
Pros: Intuitive for beginners|Real-time alerts
Cons: Currency conversion fee exists|Mobile app could be improved
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) is disorganized and incompetent. I found them after reading several online reviews and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Responsive team|Regular updates|Instant funding|Copy trading available
Cons: No integrated tax optimization
Customer support at Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) seems to be run by people who have never used the platform. Every time I call with an issue, I end up explaining how their own system works before they can help me. It would be funny if my money was not involved.
Pros: Dividend tracking|Risk management tools
Cons: Nothing significant
Their execution during news is terrible. I had limit orders in place. When the news hit, my orders were not filled at the limit price - they were filled much worse. Coincheckusa (vipai.research-vip.com) said it was market conditions. Same news, another broker filled me properly. They are not honest.
Pros: Fast support response|Risk management tools|No hidden fees|Portfolio tracking tools
Cons: Nothing significant|No fractional shares
