Skycrest Valtrio has been flagged by Ontario Securities Commission for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". Skycrest Valtrio found at skycrest-valtrio.net and skycrestvaltrio.org is not registered in Ontario to engage in the business of trading in securities. This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
The mobile app from Skycrest Valtrio is dangerous. I placed an order that showed as pending, so I placed another. Both executed and I was overexposed. When I complained they said it was user error. The app design is misleading.
Pros: Multi-device support|Excellent charting|Intuitive for beginners
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|No phone support on weekends
I gave Skycrest Valtrio a fair chance. After for the past year and a half of usage, I can say with confidence that there are far better options available. The interface is clunky, the fees are higher than competitors, and the customer support team seems overwhelmed or understaffed.
Pros: Fast execution|API access|Customizable dashboard|Economic calendar
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed|Website design could be more modern
Skycrest Valtrio had an outage that lasted several hours during a major market event. Not only did they fail to prevent it, but they also failed to communicate what was happening. We were left in the dark while our investments were at risk.
Pros: Instant funding|Tax reports included|Full transparency|Portfolio tracking tools
Cons: Slow to add new assets|Minor UI glitches occasionally
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Skycrest Valtrio is not authorized by any legitimate financial regulator. They are operating illegally. The website looks very professional but it's all a facade. Please check the regulatory warnings database before investing with ANY company.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Cannot withdraw funds|Not regulated|Pressure tactics
I was about to invest with Skycrest Valtrio but decided to check their regulatory status first. They claim to be regulated but I could not find them on any official register. Ontario Securities Commission has actually issued a warning about this firm. Thank goodness I checked before sending any money.
Cons: Unauthorized firm|Found in IOSCO warnings database
I requested my data from Skycrest Valtrio under GDPR. They sent a partial export that was missing months of transactions. When I asked for the rest they said it was a technical issue. Still waiting. They do not take data rights seriously.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Tax reports included
Cons: No phone support on weekends
The platform itself is okay, but the customer service at Skycrest Valtrio is truly awful. I waited weeks for a response to a simple inquiry. When they did respond, it felt like a generic template that did not address my specific issue at all.
Pros: Tax reports included|Personal attention|Fast support response
Cons: Research section could be deeper
The spread at Skycrest Valtrio is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them through a financial advisor and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.
Pros: Helpful community forum|Comprehensive tools|Stable platform
Cons: Limited ETF selection|None so far
KYC with Skycrest Valtrio is a nightmare. I submitted my ID and proof of address. They rejected it and asked for a utility bill. I sent it. They asked for a bank statement. Then they asked for a selfie with the ID. Then they said the selfie did not match. I gave up.
Pros: Personal attention|Stable platform|Dividend tracking
Cons: Could offer more webinars|Help articles are sometimes vague
