I invested $100.00 in a company on Sept. 15, 2024. Later the same day, I received two calls from numbers in Washington, which was odd. Then another a few hours later. I was annoyed, but I had not yet made the connection to Wefunder. At 12:30 am on Sept. 16, a call came from a different number, and then another at 1:20 am from another number. Then another at 5:05 am from a different one on Sept. 17. At this point, I started questioning what I did differently to cause this and realized it was singing up for Wefunder and trying to verify my number by text, which never came. I blocked and reported all the numbers as spam. I know nothing will be done, but at least I took the step to block them.8:30am on the 17th, I cancelled my investment and deleted my account.The finalization date was set for Nov. 14. I cancelled two days after investing since their email said I can cancel up to 4 days after the fundraiser closes at 11:59 p.m. on Sept. 15. I contacted them to let them know I cancelled the investment and deleted my account, and I also told them why. Aside from an automated confirmation message, I received no other email from them, so I don’t know if they actually read it.I cannot attest to the validity of the companies they represent or any other services they may provide. I only signed up for a few days, but what happened with the late-night phone calls during that period was unacceptable, so I cancelled everything.Your experience may be different, but I would recommend exercising significant caution if you plan to sign up and invest with this company. You might receive unwanted and unwelcome phone calls at random hours of the night. They refunded all the money, including the $10.00 fee. I got lucky since I cancelled before they sent the money to the company. Others were not so fortunate. If you decide to go ahead with signing up for Wefunder and investing, I recommend creating an email address only for that purpose. Also, buy a cheap smartphone and get a separate number for signing up. That way, you can just mute the phone and toss it in some corner so you don’t have to concern yourself with companies trying to call at random hours for whatever reason. If I ever try again, that’s what I’ll do. Also, if interested in a company they recommend, try to do some of your own research on the company just to be a little safer.I gave them 2 stars instead of 1 because I had only signed up for a short while and they refunded my money. If you read all of this, I’m sorry and thank you for indulging in this excessively lengthy review/rant.
