Love acorns

I have always liked using Acorns just because it is extremely user-friendly and very easy to manage your money on. What I really like is seeing in real time your investment portfolio increase when you login every day. I highly recommend using Acorns to everyone I know.

Accorns play tricks

Accorns play tricks, specially with referral bonus, I referred 5 people, all accounts from my 5 referrals were in good standing and suddenly before the bonus expired they put one of the accounts in bad standing so that they do not have to pay the bonus, from this account they put in bad standing they kept charging money even thought they suspended they account, be careful stay awake from this,also seems this platform wants your data… if I could give zero as a review I would do it.

Great Customer Support and Reliable App

I’ve had a great experience with Acorns. Their customer support team was very helpful and took the time to review my referral bonus request. They handled the situation professionally and resolved it quickly. I really appreciate their support and transparency. It’s a great app for investing and saving automatically.

Acorn is a great place to save money.

Acorn is a great place to save money and invest. I was with them before and I came back. I like that there's other place to help with retirement or just to save for unexpected surprises.

Excellent service

Well, the lady that I spoke to was extremely nice. She was very thorough with the questions that I had and made a crystal clear for me so I totally understood. And it’s very nice when you can get somebody on the phone and they’re very nice to you.

I had been locked out of my account for almost two weeks and was getting nowhere until Tashana stepped in. She was the only agent who truly went above and beyond to help me figure out what the issue was, and she stayed committed to helping until it was resolved.

Coming from a 15 year background in hospitality with Hilton, I know firsthand how rare it is to find someone who delivers this level of service. Tashana’s patience, professionalism, and genuine willingness to help did not go unnoticed.

Thank you so much, Tashana, for your incredible support. You are an absolute rockstar and a huge asset to this establishment! ⭐👏
