Wahed Investments

I know robo investing is always a little touchy however I was wondering if anyone had experience with wahedinvest.com and if they are seeing any sort of return on their investment.



I've had a look at this thread here: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5888931/expired-wahed-invest-50-bonus-eid-gift-for-100-investment-potentially-a-100-bonus&highlight=wahed#topofpage and it seems things are ok so far with a few people keeping their money with them?

    Apart from all the people in the thread you referenced - lol.

    There are a few general comments on their set-up in that thread - though most is about the (now expired) bonuses. And quite a lot about their rather odd customer service - and odd wording of emails and website text - and mix-ups about T&C on their website.

    I doubt, at this early stage of their offerings, you'll find much opinion on how they're doing investment-wise.

    But they don't seem entirely competent communication-wise and that might be enough to put you off. It certainly puts me off.

    Currently the best of my robo investment type dabblings in % terms (eg Moola,Orbis, Wealthify etc all done with minimums just for the cashback/bonuses) . £100 originally investment now worth £203 including bonuses/cashback. However it was invested in the most conservative option so is in Sukuk (97%) and cash. Wish the rest of my portfolio had held up so well ��. So far, this is not a bad little earner...relatively speaking.. but will probably be taking it out soon.

    Just out of interest, why are you taking it out again..?
    p.s. without the bonuses, how much has your £100 actually made.
