I joined Vista Portfolio Investment after comparing multiple platforms and from the start, things felt off. The signup process collected far more personal information than necessary, the verification took unreasonably long, and when I finally got access, the platform was nothing like what was advertised.
Pros: Transparent fees|Easy to use platform|Quick verification
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully
Vista Portfolio Investment has no proper customer support. The live chat is a bot. The phone number goes to a call center that cannot access your account. Email takes two weeks. When I had a real problem they were nowhere to be found.
Pros: Professional team|Detailed reporting|Regular platform improvements
Cons: Wait times can be long during peak hours
I found Vista Portfolio Investment after a trusted YouTuber reviewed them and the initial impression was positive. But for a few weeks now later, I have encountered so many issues that I cannot recommend them. Trades failing, charts not loading, and support tickets going unanswered for days at a time.
Pros: Great customer service|Responsive team
Cons: Spreads widen during volatile periods
KYC with Vista Portfolio Investment 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: Reliable uptime|Automated trading options
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators
I experienced a security concern with my Vista Portfolio Investment account and reported it immediately. Their response time was inexcusable for a financial platform. It took them four days to acknowledge my report and another week to actually address it.
Pros: Portfolio tracking tools|Full transparency
Cons: No phone support on weekends
My withdrawal from Vista Portfolio Investment was rejected three times for vague reasons. Each time they asked for more documents. When I finally provided everything, they said my account was under review. for over three years of being strung along.
Pros: Easy withdrawals|Multi-device support|Two-factor authentication|Comprehensive tools
Cons: Email notifications too frequent|None so far
Tried to withdraw my funds from Vista Portfolio Investment and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
Vista Portfolio Investment has the worst mobile app I have ever used for investing. It crashes constantly, features that work on desktop are missing entirely, and the security implementation is questionable at best. How they released this app is beyond me.
Pros: Fast support response|Excellent charting|Intuitive for beginners|Automated trading options
Cons: Spreads widen during volatile periods|Nothing significant
My card was charged twice by Vista Portfolio Investment on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. Vista Portfolio Investment then froze my account and said I had a negative balance because of the chargeback. They created the problem and then punished me for it.
Pros: Regular updates|Good mobile app
Cons: No phone support on weekends|Research section could be deeper
Vista Portfolio Investment offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.
Pros: No hidden fees|Portfolio tracking tools|Detailed reporting|Clear documentation
Cons: Search feature is basic
