12/11/09. TradeZoom Review and Other News

BEWARE! THIS PROGRAM HAS STOPPED PAYING! PLEASE DON’T INVEST!

Hi guys! One of the programs on my monitoring page that you may be a bit less familiar with is called TradeZoom. It’s been there for the last month now and the admin has done quite a lot to improve the quality of the website itself since first being launched. And I must admit it does look a lot better now. So he has decided to now upgrade his listing.

TradeZoom is a long term online investment program with two plans available for you to choose from. One of them pays by the day and the other on pays on expiry. But they both run for the same length of time which is 90 business days. They don’t work on Saturday and Sunday. Well, maybe they do work, but they don’t make payouts.

So I guess I’ll start with the daily plan as they generally tend to be more popular. As I said it runs for 90 business days and during that time you will be paid a rate of interest of 2% per business day. So for example if you decide to invest $100 that will see you get back $2 per day, 5 days per week. By the time the plan expires that should all add up to $180 which you can consider entirely as profit as your original hundred will be handed back as well. Minimum investment is $10 and the maximum you can spend if $50,000.

The other plan that pays on expiry is open to all deposits starting from a minimum of $50. The maximum is still $50,000. Your payment this time will be 250% of your initial investment so for the same $100 you can receive $250 after 90 days this time. A substantially bigger amount for a substantially bigger risk, so don’t let the flashing dollar signs in your eyes blind you to that either. Your principal will also be returned on expiry here as well.

The choice of payment options is regrettably very limited here with just LibertyReserve and PerfectMoney being accepted. Even if they are popular choices people still feel more secure with a wider range, despite the fact that they may very well have chosen LR and PM anyway. It can only limit the appeal of TradeZoom in my own opinion and will not allow them to progress beyond a certain level.

A couple of other things worth mentioning is that first of all compounding is not allowed. And also that you are allowed to leave the program early should you change your mind. Just remember that if you’re going to change you mind then you had better do it within three days. After that your principal is locked in and you won’t see it again until expiry. So choose carefully, ok!

TradeZoom are running off a licensed script from GoldCoders which will always give it a familiar appearance to most investors and they are hosted on a dedicated server from GeniusGuard who to the best of my knowledge (though I am open to correction) also protect the site from DDoS attacks. Certainly in the last month that I was monitoring them I was not aware of any major downtime incidents myself, but you should feel free to contact the program’s admin yourself if you need more information about that or anything else before spending your money. They have also added SSL encryption to the TradeZoom website as part of their recent upgrade.

The FAQ page is a bit threadbare to say the least and will probably throw up as many follow up questions for you as it answers. But again as the investor it remains your privilege to contact the admin for clarification on any issue before spending. In this case you may do so via the online e-mail ticket support form. By the way there is also a postal address for your consideration, however in the admin’s enthusiasm to get the program online he has neglected to tell us what city, what state, and even what country this address comes from! It is merely a name of some street, somewhere on planet earth (I assume!) and nothing else. Not even an office number. So you may as well disregard that completely. There is a telephone number as well, though it didn’t work for me. HYIP numbers rarely do work for me in fact. Maybe I’m just unlucky with telephones? Anyway, feel free to check it out for yourself if you attach any importance to it.

Overall TradeZoom left me with the impression of a somewhat amateur operation, but all the same one that has still improved upon itself greatly since first opening for business. Many of the improvements were purely cosmetic I’d say. But there is a better flash version of the site online now which is better to use. That doesn’t make your actual deposit any more secure of course and remember that as the program is two months online the risks increase. Personally I myself wouldn’t bother with the on expiry plan (just personal choice) but the daily plan might be worth a gamble if you enjoy HYIP games.

Other news for today.

I would like to start today’s news section with an important newsletter covering many topics that I was asked about by some readers coming from the admin of GoldNuggetInvest Robert (interviewed here). As most of you know GoldNuggetInvest has proved itself as the best HYIP around providing its clients with a stable performance and on-time payouts for over three years. Paying 6%-7.5% weekly is not an easy task but the administration of GoldNuggetInvest always amazes me with the professional approach and their handling of the various problems their program faced over the years. So after the new script was successfully installed and up and running the skeptics were proved wrong as GNI looks now stronger than ever. Of course, a new script means new challenges for the less savvy users but I hope my latest revised review (published here) helps at least a little bit to explain how the script works and clarified some of the major points.

Anyway, let’s get back to the new update from them. It will be handy for you if you want to have an answer to your questions regarding:
– missing deposits (the problem the users of two payment processors faced when the script was just launched),
– profile updates (please note that on updating your profile and adding new payment processors you should now prove your identity by sending some required documents similar to those that you use to verify your account in different payment processors),
– support requests (no direct emails to Robert and team are allowed anymore since the Ticket support desk is working perfectly fine now, so please use it from now on to contact GNI support),
– currency exchange (some elaboration on the new feature which would allow you to request your payout to a different e-currency than you made your deposit from with 4% fees),
– wire transfers (the elimination of fees if you exchange your profits made originally from Bank wires to any payment processor of your choice to compensate for the current inconvenience of Banking orders).

Here is the full newsletter with everything explained in detail:
“Greetings to all of our esteemed Clients, Customers and Friends of GNI:
Pursuant to our expectations, many of our concerns running the old script have been, thankfully, resolved. Not to be out done, however, many new questions are being asked, change requests are being initiated (and resolved) and issues having risen; mostly, a result of the script change.
As one would expect, the tech guys like Robert pick it up real fast, the non-tech guys, like Todd, tend to “struggle” at times but are making great strides (!!) to become fluent in “Shadowspeak”.
Because the new script’s capabilities offer so much more than the old, it has invariably created unforeseen challenges that we must address in a way that allows us to continue to offer the services, but not interrupt our primary responsibility, pay our members timely without compromising the integrity of their account using acceptable business practices. Parts of this newsletter will be added to our “Users Guide” so be sure to utilize it as you see fit.
1. Missing Deposits – There were a number of deposits made, over this past weekend that had not posted to various client accounts. These deposits (predominantly LR and PM) failed to post resulting from some optimization issues affecting the SCI Payment Processor Interfaces and our SSL implementation/settings. This has since been corrected with the script now performing as promised.
2. Profile Updates – Many of you, for one reason or another wish or need to change your email (Gmail), add or change payment processor/e-currency(s) and/ or the applicable accounts. Before any funds can be released to a new PP account or if a client has, since their initial registration, obtained a new account number or ID that is not currently registered with GNI, please be prepared to forward a scanned copy of a current, Government issued form of identification such as a Passport or Drivers License and one other, secondary piece such as a utility bill, library card or other, verifiable source of identification. It is also mandatory that your GNI Username AND newly assigned account number be included on all transactions and correspondence so it doesn’t become lost.
This information needs to be forwarded to GNIChanges@gmail.com. Debbie is the designated CSR who will be coordinating the updates of your account profiles.
It is strongly suggested all clients update their demographics in their profiles if this has not already been done so. We will have a very difficult time authorizing the update of an account if all we have to compare your id with is a first name in your GNI Profile. Please, make this easy on Debbie, allowing for an expeditious verification process ensuring timely withdrawals of your funds.
3. Support Requests – All client support requests MUST be initiated from the client’s Back Office Help Desk Menu. It is no longer acceptable for clients/customers to initiate requests directly to support’s emails unless directed by the CSR to do so. Likewise, please do not submit support requests directly to Robert. He has assured the support team that he will request of the member to use the correct channels to get their support request addressed. By going to Robert first, you have done nothing more than add 24 to 36 hours to get your support request resolved. Please have any anticipated documents scanned and ready to be forwarded so that your request can be expedited. All extraneous documents must have your GNI account number on each piece and it must be scanned in by email.
4. Currency Exchange – We hope those of you who have taken advantage of our currency exchanger have found it easy to use and quite reasonable in price. It is currently set at 4% for all exchanges. This price can and will fluctuate due to current market conditions. Some have indicated the price is high, others the price is very reasonable. Please keep in mind when evaluating our rates, this has been set up for you, our trusted member’s convenience. More often than not, it costs us more than 4% should we have to purchase E-Currency on the open market. We have found the currency exchanger less of a “Profit Center” and more of a “Cost Reducer.”
5. Wire Transfers – In our attempt to mitigate the inconvenience to our clients caused by Yesliada’s failure to comply with GNI‘s Customer Service Standards and subsequent termination of our partnership agreement, we have eliminated all fees for Bank Wire clients when taking a distribution from a payment processor of the client’s choice. Only the interest and principal from a WIRE TRANSFER qualify for this free service.
Finally, many of you know Paul, the Editor and Principal of money-news-online.com. Paul was kind enough to review our new script and elaborate a bit on some of the script’s strength and weaknesses in his blog.
Paul, like us, is very pleased with the end result and quite accurately realizes that each time we make a substantive investment in resources, it has always positively contributed to our long-term growth and improvement of customer service. It further confirms our commitment to our client base that we will be here for the long haul. You can read the review on Paul’s blog at: http://money-news-online.com/blog/2009/11/11/101109-goldnuggetinvest-revised-review-and-other-news/
Be looking for newsletters on a regular basis as we feel it is our obligation to keep all of you apprised of future developments.
We thank you all for your patronage and your trust!
All the best, your GNI Team”.

My account is QuartaDimensio program (yet to be reviewed on MNO) is still not in order and I have received some queries from readers as to when I will be reviewing it. Well, I can say with certainty that QuartaDimensio will not be reviewed until everything is in order: the script is working fine and the payouts are credited and processed properly. Though today I did receive an apology letter from the admin it’s still not clear to me when everything will be ready. Don’t get me wrong – I believe QuartaDimensio is one of the few very original programs and I’m looking forward to reviewing it in the near future. However considering all the current factors and obstacles I will postpone the review for the time being. Here is the latest newsletter for all the members:
“Dear Members, QuartaDimensio staff would like to apologize if you have experienced any delays in account set-up or processing of transactions, or delays with responses to any queries.
Following our recent implementation of the new Manual mode, we are overrun with queries and new account set ups. Our phone system has been out of operation for a period also.
Our focus has been on ensuring the bet-bot system is functioning at its optimum, so we that can ensure excellent profits for our members. This has meant that there have been some delays in processing transactions, setting up new accounts, and dealing with queries.
The efficiency of the bet-bot system is at the core of our service and it is at the core of our ability to give our members the best profits. On the customer-facing side, there are some processes and systems that we need to implement that will make the sign-up and transaction process smoother for our members.
We are working through all the transactions and queries and we are implementing new processes and systems for greater efficiency. Our investors are the key to our success. We believe it’s right that you receive the best service and that you make the very best profits possible.
We guarantee you 20% to 30% profit on your investment every month. If your account does not make at least 20%, please let us know, and we will top it up.
We would like to ask for your patience at this very busy time, and we would like to thank you for your patience.
With any query, please always include full and clear details relating to your question, all relevant account details, your username, and any other relevant details. This will mean we can reply more quickly to the query.
Again, thank you for your patience. And here’s to the best profits out there!
Richard Reilly. QuartaDimensio”.
