Has anyone managed to cancel the monthly membership prior to the first fee being charged? It’s $9.99 now, which is more than the cost of two trades (open position, close position).

They charged my 7.99/mo fee at the 1 week + 1 day mark

I’m not a fan of the $5.99 monthly trading fee, but the website is very easy to use for a beginner, such as myself. And you get unlimited trades, so for someone that trades a lot it might be a good deal. I like that I can buy stocks in dollar amounts and the website auto updates the price in real time during trading hours. I’m surprised that I did so well on stocks this week. I invested $1000 in 4 stocks and I’m already up $65.

Can this be churned?

The deposit bonus is listed in the “Rewards” section here: https://tornado.com/contact. Up to $1000 for an initial deposit of 1M. Cash has to stay in the account for a year, and it says you need to make at least 1 trade for the rewards to be valid.

“Tornado will give you bonus cash in your account when you make your first deposit, starting with $5 for a deposit of just $50, and going up to $15 for a $100 deposit, $75 for $1,000, $150 for $10,000, and more for higher amounts.”

Gonna contact Tornado for their best offer on a $5k-$10k first deposit.

It’s a joke, you have to wait 1 year to get the in-app bonus

After earning around 25,000 Swagbucks over the last 3 weeks from various deals (sofi, wsop, etc), Swagbucks has asked that I submit my government ID and biometric data to verify my identity.

No thanks. I’m out.

And it will get worse. The leaders of most countries in the world are working really hard to get that universal digital ID. “It is for your own good”.

It wouldn’t bother me as much if the IRS or DMV asked me to verify ID since they already have that information. Even id.me is getting scrutinized for identifying for the IRS.

But Swagbucks? Lol gtfo

Yes, because for the majority of the world, being unable to be identified properly is a major limitation to those people entering the formal workforce (higher incomes and paying taxes), getting access to government benefits, or becoming banked (i.e. having a bank account). A national ID system (like they’ve done in India) has massive, massive benefits measured in both quality of life and economic terms.

It has nothing to do with Illuminati conspiracies. What exactly do you think your state DMV and social security number are? Not everything is a conspiracy.

I guess that’s an improvement from them just shutting accounts. Did you get it cashed out?

I’ve only cashed out $75 with $200 remaining thats pending (~30 days).

They asked me to verify ID on a ticket I submitted because they didn’t credit $100 for SunBasket. So $300 held hostage.

I’ve had to do this twice while cashing out. After I completed it, I was credited just fine. I’m guessing it’s fraud prevention and ID verification since they have to issue tax docs for earnings. Idk, didn’t bother me…

I guess it depends if your personal information and biometric data is already all out there.

MyPoints asked me to do that too a few days ago. I wasn’t even cashing out at the time – I was just inquiring about points that weren’t showing as pending from a Blue Apron subscription

What kind of biometrics are they asking for?
