Great customer service

Spotfund is awesome , I have never delt with a company that is so customer care motivated, whatever you need to accomplish your goals with navigating through their site, with questions on how to setup your account to get the best results the customer service team will assist you without any hesitation, not because it's their job, they truly care about their customers. I will recommend Spotfund.com to family and friends thank you for helping me with my journey, you're amazing people Harley92
