--- ★☆☆☆☆ Awful Support - Not worth the subscription fees I’ve been a subscriber since October 2025. After 6 months, I needed to make changes to my trading account settings but the platform wouldn’t let me do it. I reached out to support for help and they are incredibly slow — 3 to 5 days for a single reply. No live chat, no phone number, and their knowledge base is outdated and useless for real issues. After spending over $500 per month in subscription fees, you’d expect excellent customer support. Instead, I got a month of back-and-forth emails with slow responses and no urgency. They don’t seem to care about their customers at all. After a month of frustration with no solution, we decided to close our account. Save your money.

Refused to give me a prorated discount after I paid for an annaul subscription. They have no way of protecting users on strategies that just can randomly change. They don't have any notion of protecting the subscriber. I will be reporting them to the BBB as well.

It is total scam. I have been with them for about 4 years. My trading result is getting really good for the last year until now. They suddenly modify my trades, remove my stops and increase my positions without my knowledge. My preset profit and stop loss target could not get executed, which resulted a huge loss. I asked them to fix their system, but they did not get back to me. I close my account. Don't waste your time and money with them.

I was solicited by C2 to leave a positive review which is really quite something considering I've been with them for over a year and am a net negative on my accounts and my sanity. Investment managers at C2 are notorious for having a few good months run while loading up subscribers and then blowing accounts. I'm intrigued by algo trading and copy trading, but this is not the way. I'm not running my own algos and copy traders and actually making money. Now waiting for my final C2 subscriptions to run out, but all but one has been taken off of real funds so I have something left to recover my Collective2 losses with!

Matthew Kline sent out an email, since I have been a member a long time, asking for a positive review, since there have been so many negative ones lately. BIG MISTAKE!, as any hope for Collective 2 is long gone. Investors are left to "figure out" which strategy managers are legitimate. In truth, you will be HARD PRESSED to find a strategy manager that will not leave you asking, WHY???!!!! I know a few. Very few. In finding them, I've tripped over absolute amateurs, some bordering on Snake Oil Salesmen, some who've bought bots to re-sell, who've blown up multiple accounts only to resurface later under a different name, to burn someone else's money. There seems to be no oversite, no vetting process. Matthew Kline knows exactly why people are unhappy, and I believe he has the power to fix it. There are secondary chatrooms that have been created by members to help each other, because negative comments on C2 are deleted! You are on your own. Unless you REALLY know how to evaluate risk, stay away from this company. Just find an edge, work it out in SIM mode and manage your own money. C2 will allow you to waste money on 10,000 turds in your hopes of finding one decent strategy.

I seriously considered the product and wanted to check it out. Spent hours--many hours-- researching the different trading systems and what they offered. All this time and effort culminated in making a simulated portfolio which I, at first, thought was a helpful feature. Without warning the entire thing was deleted after 60 days. When, in panic, I asked what happened I got the dry response that "simulated portfolios are automatically deleted after 60 days."Now I realize... yes, of course they are. This borders on fraud because it keeps anyone from being able to make a careful assessment of the long term performance of any of the trading programs. I now realize that this is actually the point of the auto delete. They prefer a customer to put tens of thousands of dollars at risk with only minimal information. I am no longer interested in Collective2. I immediately deleted my account.

No responses to emails, bad user interface.

Margins that make no sense just like other reviewer put. For high speed speculation, we use day trading margins not swing (initial margins). No way to adjust it. I think on their website, margin page they say SP is 6000, but when you begin adding it becomes 12000 margin. Barely any users. Feels like mostly just HFT firms using it to collect the data using free simulations or "broke customers" who thinks that with 500 they could get Tim Sykes super novas and get a lamborghini. Lots of fees and barely any benefit. No recommended. Funny they talk about super stars traders in response to comments. No kidding but with 14000 initial margins only fools would trade unless accounts loaded with 3mln equity lol the idea from c2 is to collect fees on resets while billing monthly fees. Interface is so bad. That it takes forever to place trades quickly. No real time data. Makes me wonder who developed all this dinosaur... and yet they expect to get paid "investors" where so called managers operate w 10min delay data and their Interface.. 1-1.5sec to place trades with stops vs 8 Seconds and let's say we are trading nasdaq shorting on breakout fail. By the time you type stop order and if it does actually break out... it's a complete mess.
