70% scammers on this site. Other platforms have strict verification process. This site has none. Be very careful.

Purchased their product with a promise of a refund if we had no interest within a month.

After one month and receiving one message from [redacted], to which I responded and heard nothing back, I requested a refund. The response was I should cancel my subscription, and they would rewrite my pitch for me (which I have little idea if they actually did) and provide me a free month, after which I could be refunded.

I did so, had one other message from potentially another 'fake' investor (as I replied and got nothing back) and forgot about the service because I had no notifications come through. Once I recalled the £150 I had spent and received nothing for, I contacted the company to request my refund but was told that i was too late as I had to contact them "5 days prior to the expiry".

All in all, nothing productive came from using their service at all. I would highly recommend others to avoid it at all costs.

We got a fake investor from here - a man from Zimbabwe currently residing in Brazil . Avoid him. He signed everything including the shareholders agreement but never transferred money, excuse after excuse. wasted 7 months on us.

We signed up and renewed our subscription a few times believing as per their marketing, if we didn’t get any investor interest we can get a refund.

We can tell you now this is a lie. After 3 months and then a further 90 following a rewrite, we were advised that we don’t qualify for a refund despite no interest in our pitch.

So if you are nervous about using this Company in case you get no interest and waste your money, then I will confirm now, that’s exactly what will happen.

I honestly thought the marketing was too good to be true and now I find out it really is.

The refund policy is completely untrue.
Don't use them!

I did not receive one contact and they do not respond to the refund request. - They also have a very small number of small investors who are most likely fishing for ideas.

Honestly. I hope I saved you the expense.

No way to contact any kind of support team. Tried the online "support form" after no response for a month, tried linkedin and even instagram with still no response.

Two of my best leads lost because the website was, and still is, having server errors and won't send my pitch deck through the chat function.

Additionally, most of the contact I have had from investors has been firms that solicit services to "improve your pitch" for a fee, before presenting to potential investors.

I would not recommend using this website if you are looking for investment in your business.

1. Sind es nur Unseriöse Investoren ´mit absolut unseriösen Angeboten
2. Wird beim dem Abo betrogen. Man bekommt eine Email, dass dieses beendet wurde und später wird es trotzdem abgerechnet, mit der Begründung, diese Email hätte sich auf ein anderes Abo bezogen, was es aber gar nicht auf der Homepage gibt.

For any founder that would give a shot to AIN platform, I will suggest to read carefully the refund policy guidelines.
However, they make a point to honour the policy as long as the guidelines are followed.

Personally, I engaged a good amount of time building up the Pitch online for no genuine interest from investors even though our Pitch was featured (pro package).

Nonetheless, you may have more chances than we had and if you respect the refund policy guidelines, it is worth a try as it won't cost your business any money (only potential time).

Not really helpful. A money spinner for the owners. The cancellation policy is dodgy and deliberate. I think short-sighted too. That did it for me. They have their ‘standard spiel’ on how they have mentioned their cancellation clause in their T&Cs. Anyway, I won’t recommend.

The cancellation policy is quite punitive. Especially at a time when founders are busy looking around to get investments, the last thing on their agenda is to track when a renewal or repayments period will end.

I don’t think there is a non-auto renewal option on their platform so every user has to commit to ongoing deductions and hence keep tracking when the the next renewal date will kick in. They already have your bank details, so they automatically deduct the fee.

I’m not the only one complaining about this. A good number of their poor rating on trust pilot is due to this issue. I guess they probably don’t care as much for customer satisfaction, loyalty or repeat business. The moment, I saw the fees were deducted automatically, I cancelled my subscription right away. They get to have a paid customer slot that will not be used for the next 1 month but I’d rather take that chance than be automatically charged again, especially if I think I might not need the service subsequent months.

The team at AIN were helpful from the outset in communications prior to signing up, despite a few sign-up teething issues which were resolved. The online platform itself is good, lots of useful features and has helpful tips and explanations to help you whilst completing your profile. There are also a variety of upsells and packages, so you have (paid) opportunities to try different ways of getting noticed by investors. Sadly, whether it's our pitch/company, the economic wider economic situation in late 2022 or a lack of active investors on the platform, we got very little interest beyond brief looks at our documentation.. The team helped us relook at our profile and tried a few other tips and tricks, but there was no improvement in interest levels. We requested a refund which was managed well and honoured promptly. I see value in AIN from previous experiences with the platform as an angel investor, and whilst it didn't work for us this time as founder/start-up, that isn't to say it wouldn't work for you and your company. At the very least, it's worth a try and from my experience, the AIN team will be supportive.

Was contacted by a fraudulent scammer. Messaged via their internal messaging platform to cancel my subscription and was completely ignored. Truly awful company.

Angel Investment Network was true to its word. We attempted to connect with funding on their site, but after not getting the traction we were hoping for, they refunded our money.

In my experience, the only "angels" on this site are people trying to sell something to investors. Don't be fooled by the number of profiles, most seem to be inactive.

As you can see by the other reviews here, they don't like giving refunds unless you meet their exact requirements.

This has really left a bad taste in my mouth. I feel like I've been scammed.

Good website, with a huge pool of investors. Unfortunately our pitch was unsuccessful. The email correspondence was friendly and helpful when my first round was unsuccessful and they offered a free extension and extra nudges. After this, they did refund the price as per their policy, without question. Maybe you'll have more luck than us!

I can't recommend AIN enough! We raised 6 figures through them and they were by far the transformative factor for our fundraise. I'm not sure what we would have done without them. Highly Highly recommend them!

DO NOT EVER SHARE PAYMENT DETAILS WITH THIS COMPANY!

We created a pitch and chose the 'Global Pro' option for £249 per month. (Pro is £149 per month). This apparently shows the pitch to the whole Global Audience. We then added the £199 Featured Exposure which gets you '3 times more contacts'.

They promise a refund 'if you get no genuine interest'. There was no interest. 7 days before the end of the campaign, we contacted them asking them for the refund. They were very friendly and promptly replied offering to extend the campaign another month and they would personally update the pitch to make it more attractive. They also added 25 nudges to so we could message investors. We used the nudges and waited another 3-4 weeks. Nothing.

I emailed them as agreed 7 days before the second campaign ended. No reply. I emailed them 5 days before the campaign ended. No reply. Today I get an email from them! Great I must be getting my refund. WRONG. They have charged me another £249. I email them. No reply.

I genuinely question the ethics of how this business operates based on my experience.

I signed up for their second highest package, and to be exact, priced at $766 here it is
Global Pro, Featured Exposure, Immediate Release, Proof Read / Review. This package included "Proof Read" and they charge for it twice on the same day and then they offer to compensate it with something called the Nudge Pack 3 priced at $199.00, which I never used because there is no one real to nudge.

Out of the 300,000 investors that they claim to have in their network, one reaches out to sell my IT services and another one reaches out and instructs me to join a meeting about some BS subject related to nothing close to my business. Luckily I disabled my monthly subscription of $399 from renewing 10 days in, and when my subscription approached expiring, they try to lure me back in by telling me that 3 investors are now suddenly interested and if I want to connect with them, then I will have to renew my subscription.

Please read the reviews before you sign up, I did not

It’s a scam. I PAID on November 02, 2021, for £2,499. It’s a lie. Some investors are probably a bot and automatically generated emails, and some are their own team; some are people who are desperate for jobs and looking for advice from other people to make money!

I purchased the most expensive package and what I got was only fake investors who come in many ways asking for some money in advance. They play with my feeling.
Here is your reply answer, because there was no option to reply. I never understand why you said we divert the clients in to our website. We are not suppose to introduce our website? do you think people came to my website and invest there and I make this up?!!!Do you think that if I have the result, I will post this review? Do you think this all one star rating on your idea and platform get the investment or they are making this up?!!

Even though this platform didn't work for my company, the Angel Network team was very helpful, quick with their service and kept their promises! It is definitely worth it!

Through the site I made contact with several interested investors and was able to acquire a suitable partner for our project.

Forever grateful to Angel Investment Network.
