BAD EXPERIENCE-SCAM?
Awful experience. From the get go, app does not work well, logs you out every time. Fees are so high that any gains you see are used to cover them. I finally listed my wine for sale. Wine was put in pending sale status in February. Two and a half months later no update, no money. Customer service can’t give any timeline, just a copy and paste response. Customer service has no telephone number. TAKE YOUR INVESTMENTS ELSEWHERE.
Avoid
I understand wine is long term and values fluctuate. However closing the account seems impossible. They charge fees originally from a cash balance and then charge an overdraft fee without warning that you need to add to the cash before charging it. No way to pause while you sell. Predatory way of charging and do not have customer in mind. Good way to lose a few thousand.
Not Liquid At All!!!
Despite the branding as an Everyman investing product, your investment is entirely illiquid and they make it difficult to ship or sell. It's unclear even how they mark your wines current value which is also suspect.
Great alternative way to invest and diversify
I started investing in high-end wines using VinoVest and so far my return is a lot better than my 401K. I like that I don’t have to store the wine myself and risk bottle shock (or bottle consumption).
easy to invest, impossible to divest
i don’t know if it’s literally a scam. but good luck ever selling your wine. meanwhile the monthly charges keep racking up.
Refund
I ask to close account nothing in they took 160 dollars I’m glad it was just a small amount and you cannot get ahold of anyone
App is crashing after “Transactions” is selected
Hello. I just downloaded the Vinovest app (version 1.37.0) on an iPhone running iOS 17.4. The app is crashing 100% of the time after I select the “Transactions” option under wine. I posted this using my @RandomiOSBugs Twitter account. Please investigate if you can, makes it very hard for new users to browse the app.
