Vantage has several customer service channels and we found the live chat to be the fastest and most relevant. Emails are typically answered quickly, but are not always complete or relevant. Lastly, we missed 24/7 support.
| Pros | Cons |

The live chat at Vantage is usually fast, except during peak business hours when queries tend to queue up. The relevance of the answers was OK, although some questions were not properly addressed.
Phone support response time at Vantage is OK, but at certain times it took several minutes to reach a customer service representative. Nevertheless, we received relevant answers and the staff was very helpful.
Customer emails are typically answered within a little more than a business day and this was where we missed relevant answers the most. Some questions were left unanswered, while in other cases the response was irrelevant.
We also missed 24/7 availability. You can contact Vantage from Monday to Friday, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Vantage customer service quality
We define the quality of a broker's customer service based on its response speed (e.g. if they answer the phone within a few minutes, it counts as quick, but if they make you wait a lot, that’s considered a poor response speed) and their response relevance (i.e. whether they provide a clear answer to your questions or an ambiguous one that needs further clarification).
