I started investing more than one year ago on different platforms and Squirrel always comes up on top. It's easy to use, clear explanations on what is happening behind scenes, weekly reports and being that the markets were down this year, Squirrel is the only one that produced positive returns.

Buy/Sell orders are transacted very quickly 24/7.
Reserve Funds make Squirrel safer than a bank.

Squirrel is an excellent platform that consistently improves the investor experience . Orders clear very quickly and transfers in/out of my account are also very quick .
The return on investment is very healthy , and I've never had any dramas in terms of receiving payment.
I particularly like the incremental interest / capital repayments which quickly mount up and really helps demonstrate the power of compound interest .

So much better than term investments with the bank. Higher interest rate and not locked in for the term of the investment. When we got bored with retirement and decided to buy a business, we were able to put our investments on the secondary market and got all of our money back within two weeks with no fees.

I've been investing with them since the start and compared to high street banks the returns are excellent.
It's actually hard to believe that they have not lost a cent but in any event they claim to have very adequate reserve funds. Fascinating range of very innovative products, excellent communication to investors.
The two significant advantages over the NZ competitor product are reserve fund and secondary market.

Team in Squirrel very fast made responses for my questions.
Before I was not too much know about Squirrel term investment procedures.
After I made action and not as I am thinking, I called to the team investment, and they gave detail all about my question.
I am happy with the team in investment dept, they are helpfully and fast known what my requests.
Excellent team in investment dept.

I am new to Squirrel but I have found the website easy to navigate and the information that I was looking to help me to decide whether to invest or not was covered. I emailed just once to check I was doing things correctly and had a very prompt and friendly response. So far, I am delighted to have taken the step to invest with Squirrel and plan on investing with them further.

I find that my Squirrel Investment Portfolio has been handled a very professional manner and would certainly recommend this investment platform to others.
The few occasions on which I have had to contact the Squirrel advisors they have shown to be very professional and knowledgeable about the enquiry.
I also found them to be very open to suggestions about improvements to the investment experience.

I've been with Harmoney for almost 3 years and your platform is far more superior, will move to you little by little

Very happy with my Squirrel investment. Platform works well and so easy to monitor using the app. Returns are good and much better than at the bank. Have been an investor since Jan 2016. Highly recommended.

I'm very excited about using the Squirrel platform to diversify my investment portfolio. Looking forward to many great returns.

I think the Homeowners Loan is an excellent idea, helping people get to 20% deposit to qualify for better rates. I will be investing as much as I can into it. I wish it had been available to me when I got my mortgage. Squirrel Money is providing an important service at the same time as a really good investment opportunity, exactly what I had hoped peer to peer banking would be.
