Customer service - Not effective
Customer service - Not effective.
I have been trying to set up a joint account since more than a month and have been unable to complete the process.
I approached several time the customer service with phone calls and messages. The personnel has been kind and generally showed a certain lever caring.
Nevertheless no one has taken ownership of the issue. They were only able to give generic answers not leading to a solution (e.g. issue transferred to different department (IT?), explanations (or attempts of explanations) contradicting the one received in previous calls (from different colleagues), promises of follow-up calls never kept,…).
I have finally been asked (without explaining why) to provide some additional information by mail.
Two weeks have now passed and yet no feedback.
Total silence and the bitter feeling of been left by yourself (while ironically, at the same time, the flow of promotional emails continues happily).
Honestly, all this is far from satisfactory.

When I first joined Swissquote I had a vocher code for 200CHF which should have been applied to my account. After setting everything up nothing was added so you make this a very unpleasant experience.

Absolutely unacceptable experience with Swissquote.
On April 2nd, I transferred 700 CHF from my UBS account. UBS confirmed the transfer was completed, yet Swissquote has been “blocking” the funds for over a week with no explanation.
I contacted support three times by phone and also through the internal contact form in my account. Each time, I got the same vague response: “the funds are blocked,” no reason, no timeline, and no follow-up despite promised callbacks.
What makes it worse is that Swissquote is expensive, yet the service is anything but premium. Poor communication, zero transparency, and no urgency.
For a trading platform, this is simply not acceptable. If you can’t access your own money, what’s the point?
Very disappointing. I would think twice before using Swissquote.

Totally unreliable and unsafe
Totally unreliable: you ask for fees of a service; they answer you something and then they charge you totally different (and higher) fee.
Their Swift systems are not fully working and they do not check the bank codes with the bank accounts, so the money might appear in somewhere else... A simple safety check that every bank implements, but no swissquote; of course the transaction fees are charged anyway.
And crazily expensive!!!

Very disappointing experience with Swissquote.
I attempted to open an account and transferred 80,000 CHF, but after almost 10 days there was still no confirmation or progress on the account approval. It’s hard to understand how long it can take just to verify an ID document and activate an account.
Customer service was slow and unhelpful throughout the process. After reading similar experiences from other users facing the same delays, I decided to request a refund and close the account instead.
Based on this experience, I would not recommend trusting them with your funds. I also saw multiple comments mentioning issues with the app’s performance, which reinforced my decision.
Overall, this felt very unprofessional for a Swiss financial institution. Don’t waste your time.

Very user-friendly tool both on App and Desktop. Easy to buy and sell ETFs. I have also transfered my shares benefing from 0 fees. I have been using the Trading account every month since 2023. Tax documents are also very useful, specifically for Swiss tax residents.

The only reason why I give them 4 stars out of 5 is that fees for trading / investing are huge. I think one of the highest on the market, sometimes killing the idea of investing/ trading. Suggest them to offer lower fees for higher portfolio/ more frequent traders.

Easy navigation and usage and transparency on fees but wish all the features would be available on the mobile app.

The app is ridiculously bad
The app is ridiculously bad, over complicated for no reason under the pretext of security. For support ticket you cannot reply to the message and you always have to create a new one. You cannot reply to the email, when you.
I wanted to transfer my shares but it feels like middle age and I am totally blocked and locked in the app.
Swissquote is not a neobank, it is an old dinosaur that pretends to be new. Honestly I would not do the mistake of opening an account again on their platform.

I sent all the document needed
I sent all the document needed, now they ask for them again but since it takes way to much time i ask for my money back (because i sent money for account opening)
