I called in for help... and Morgan delivered

I called in for help to set up my Roth SDIRA as a legal entity on a broker site as part of the information required to purchase two private equity investment funds. Morgan Appeldorn was ready to help, had all the answers, sent me the bank details, and had a great attitude. Very much appreciated and well done, Morgan!

Explanation, process and flow made easy

I am not familiar with 401K , I don’t speak or understand the language , procedures , rules and regulations. Tamara Perez was so patient and understanding of my lack of understanding and knowledge. Tamara explained the process and the why’s. Each step addressing more concerns with patience and understanding, saying no worries. If her management can do anything to provide her with a reward of some sort , she went above and beyond her job

Extremely long delays in processing

The concept of what they offer is great, but their level of service is currently very poor. They've been holding onto $50,000 which I sent them a month ago, which I was told would take about five days to get processed and wired out to the VC firm I'm investing with. I'm told they aren't even monitoring the e-mail address given to me, as they can't handle the volume of mail coming in. I can't get a live person when I call, and am routinely having to leave a voicemail after waiting on hold for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, they're making interest on my money as it just sits in their corp bank account. I'd suggest looking at other providers.

Thank you for your feedback, we’re very sorry that your experience has not matched expectations. We understand how concerning it is to have funds in process longer than anticipated, especially when you are trying to meet a specific investment timeline. Delays, communication gaps, and difficulty reaching our team are not acceptable, and we apologize for the frustration this has caused.

We are actively working to improve processing times and communication channels to better support our clients. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to do better. We encourage you to reach out to our Director of Client Relations at mflenard@irafinancial.com to discuss your experience further.

I spoke with Jill. She set up an appointment tomorrow to speak with a specialist for the questions that I have. She was very pleasant. Although I was told the way time was 3 it was much longer.

Great customer service!

Today I required assistance with my existing IRA Financial account, and when I contacted the customer service area, I spoke to Morgan A. I have spoken to Morgan in the past, and each time she has provided me with excellent customer service. She is always professional, knowledgeable, and patient. She is an asset to the company.

Ira Financial and their excellent customer service

I wanted to take the opportunity to thank multiple employees from Ira Financial for their continued customer service support they provide me each and every single time I call them. They were able quickly address the completion of a tax form for my account. They worked together as a team to quickly answer all my questions, and completed the form for tax compliance. Their efforts made something challenging into a seamless task for all of those involved. Those employees are the following: Katherine Wittrock, Rebecca Scifo, and Morgan Appeldorn.
They are the reason I am so happy I joined IRA Financial several years ago. Their exceptional customer service is completely appreciated. Their continued efforts minimized my stress in maintaining my self directed IRA account. Thank you for the tremendous service that you provide !
