I signed up with www.crestfinancialadvisors.com after a trusted YouTuber reviewed them and the first red flag was the aggressive account manager who would not stop calling. After depositing, the promised support vanished. Withdrawals are delayed with endless excuses. I have reported them to the regulator.
Pros: Comprehensive tools|Transparent fees|Dividend tracking
Cons: Currency conversion fee exists
The hidden fees at www.crestfinancialadvisors.com are the real scandal here. What they advertise and what they actually charge are two different things. By the time I realized how much I was paying in various fees and spreads, I had already lost a meaningful amount.
Pros: Clear documentation|Clean UI
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources|Help articles are sometimes vague
Do not use www.crestfinancialadvisors.com for anything serious. I used them for over three years for small trades and it was okay. When I deposited a larger amount and traded more, my account was flagged, my withdrawals were delayed, and I was asked to explain my trading. They treat active traders like criminals.
Pros: Easy withdrawals|Multi-device support
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully|Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
I had a dispute with www.crestfinancialadvisors.com and went to their complaints process. They have an internal team that just defends the company. Then they said I could go to an ombudsman - but the ombudsman they use is industry-funded and rarely rules for the client. The system is rigged.
Pros: Professional team|Social trading features
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed|Wait times can be long during peak hours
I experienced a security concern with my www.crestfinancialadvisors.com 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: Low minimum deposit|Professional team
Cons: Some tools only available on higher tiers
www.crestfinancialadvisors.com changed their fee structure with one month notice. What was a flat fee became a percentage. For my account size it meant a huge increase. When I objected they said I could leave. So I am leaving and writing this review.
Pros: Regular platform improvements|Dividend tracking|Responsive team|Demo account available
Cons: No fractional shares|None so far
www.crestfinancialadvisors.com advertises low fees but once you dig into the fine print, there are numerous charges that add up quickly. Inactivity fees, withdrawal fees, currency conversion fees - it all eats into your returns. I wish I had read the terms more carefully.
Pros: Multi-currency support|Good mobile app|Segregated accounts
Cons: Slow to add new assets|Minor UI glitches occasionally
I trusted www.crestfinancialadvisors.com with a significant portion of my savings and I deeply regret that decision. Not because of market losses, but because of how poorly the platform performed and how dismissively the support team treated my concerns.
Pros: Low minimum deposit|Economic calendar
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators|Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days
My withdrawal request from www.crestfinancialadvisors.com has been pending for over two weeks now. Every time I contact support, I get the same copy-paste response about processing times. This is unacceptable for a financial platform in this day and age.
Pros: Personal attention|Reliable uptime|Copy trading available
Cons: No dark mode on mobile
