I moved a large portion of my assets to VG ~10 years ago and was a happy camper.
I did not use anything specific but loved that I had a live person assigned to me so we were able to chat once in a while, they used to allow an annual complimentary consultation with CFA and it was useful. I really loved MF like Wellington and Wellesley (moved to index ETFs later)
It's all gone now
When I call now, I feel like it's not somebody who is holding a significant part of your wealth, but sounds really like my health insurance company
I needed to find out some details about margin loans last Friday and it took me literally no time to accomplish it with Schwab, but with VG it was practically impossible.
So after several years of observing the changes at VG I am mostly out (kept one position for the time being).
Just wanted to share my experience and also wonder if other people noticed negativity with customer support at VG.
Thx
