The StockPerk app is still a disaster! !
When signing up (cell phones only, never via PC) it asks for your date of birth and income as well as the usual request for email address and password. There is no reason the app needs your date of birth or your income.
Then, it wanted access to my brokerage account to verify that I owned Carnival Corp. stock.... What are the chances of a small startup keeping my details safe and/or not using them for other purposes? Pretty low in my opinion. If my details get hacked in the future do you think I'll get compensated for any losses (e.g., my brokerage account drained...).
Although I realize that by not signing up I'm foregoing $100 per Carnival cruise, please consider the risks and do yourself a favor by avoiding the app.
