I believe Chris’ post is worth moving to the top of the list:
Chris
It’s very obvious the negative posts re NICI are by people who are NOT members….. My initial fee for joining has been returned 10 fold. NICI was without a doubt the best investment I have made in the Cannabis market.
NICI is All about throwing you a crumb, then up sale you to the next level.
Hi Larry,
Your comments could be more helpful if you disclosed when you became a member of NICI, what level you subscribed to, how many different recommendations you have acted upon and what your results have been.
I joined the Cannibis Venture Syndicate and tried for weeks to to but their main IOP. Their staff gave me 3 different website all of them were wrong. Customer service was too busy and said they would call me back. There was no call back and the IPO would not take any more buys.
Should I get my money back or hang in?
This is a highly guarded and highly confidential research service, and no refunds can be issued once I’ve gained access to the information in the members’ area.
You should not expect a refund.
What happened to your money back guarantee?
Hi Gus,
Cannibis Venture Syndicate, @ $4,950, does not offer the same guarantee as their lower cost services. The quotation above is taken from the Cannibis Venture Syndicate order form agreed to when placing your order. If I had paid that much for the opportunity to purchase pre-IPO shares, I would not be sitting with folded hands waiting on a call from Customer Service.
I am still looking for the 5 opportunities at 10X returns.
Thx,.. I’m talking about IPO Insider membership,.. here’s what’s on their website. My question is 1/is this true and 2/do they life up to guarantee?
Fr0m IPO Insider: But here’s what I can promise you. At least FOUR IPOs will deliver 10X gains during the first year.
If they don’t just give my team a call at the end of your subscription. I’ll refund every cent you paid, no questions asked.
Hi Gus,
As stated somewhere below, I was able to reconfirm NICI’s commitment to the terms of their service guarantee. I sent Customer Service an email and asked them.
You could do the same thing. Do they live up to their guarantee? You will have to wait and see.
I would rather have the gains than a refund.
Stuart: I’m in the same boat as I joined at the same time. Turned to Fidelity to do some investing but since I’ve always depended on a broker, not sure how to place a trade. Still learning and haven’t invested yet. As a MM patient, I have a great belief in the future of cannabis. Any suggestions for first time solo investor?
I am beginning to think that joining this organization has become nothing but hype and all they want is to sell you more subscriptions after you join. Not happy .
I was going to sign up and i didn’t see a difference in the Diamond and Platinum could someone please clarify for me?
Hello, you are correct. Diamond level and Platinum level are exactly the same offering, except, with the Founder’s Discount applied, the cost is only $79 vs $129 for a 2 year subscription. I suppose, at some future date, the Founder’s Discount may no longer be offered. Hope this helps.
I bought the $495 package. Now they want me to pay for the IPO information. I have made a few dollars from a couple of the stock recommendations. I am not going to pay for the upgrade.
It’s very obvious the negative posts re NICI are by people who are NOT members. They seem to have only watched the mike ward video. I joined on day one. Based on info from NICI I am up 80% in Aphria, 80% in Cresco, 80% in Cronos, 30% in Canapy Growth and the list goes on. The stocks which are down a FEW percent are still very much worth holding. My initial fee for joining has been returned 10 fold. NICI was without a doubt the best investment I have made in the Cannabis market.
Hi
I am looking to join NICI IPO insider. It looks like you are doing good. Is it possible to talk to you.
Thanks

When you joined, did you pay $79, or did you pay $4950.00 for a membership into the Cannabis Venture Syndicate?

A few below seem overly concerned about the supposed, “non-refund” of their subscription fee. I was able to reconfirm NICI’s commitment to the terms of their Service Guarantee: 100% Money-Back Guarantee #2: At least five of the opportunities we present will give you the chance at 10X returns over the next 12 months, or you can contact our team and they’ll refund every penny.
The stars rating formula atop is ridiculous. Anyone can vote despite the “guidelines”. Does anyone seriously believe that most of those doing so are in a position to evaluate based on a reasonable degree of involvement (i.e. investment within the company) in determining their evaluation. From what’s written below it seems clear this is not the case and most people are voting on the basis of very little accurate and truly significant information.
Why would anyone care about the accuracy of the Stars Rating Formula? I doubt anyone visits this thread prior to making their decision to enter a subscription to NICI.
I did make the decision to visit the BBB and then I saw this site and decided to check it out and learn about the company THIS way… before I invest my money….
Which way did you decide to learn about the site? Through the BBB? or by looking at the company itself?
Here is what the BBB has for NICI: (uninformative at best)
“1 Complaint in past 3 years, Complaint Type: Guarantee/Warranty Issues, Status: Answered”
I am confused by the markdowns. Anyone care to comment?
It seems there is some antipathy to mention of the latest NICI offering, Cannabis venture syndicate, offered at $4,950 per year. The posts were all excerpts from NICI emails. If anyone is a member, I am sure you received them also. Anyone planning to join?
Just when you thought you had the, “…highest levels of both sides…”, along comes the next opportunity:
He (Mike Ward) wanted me to remind you that our new service, Cannabis Venture Syndicate, launching in March, has not been announced to the general public yet.
My cost for a one-year subscription today is just $4,950.
This is a highly guarded and highly confidential research service, and no refunds can be issued once I’ve gained access to the information in the members’ area.
Don’t brilliant stock pickers make their money on the stocks they invest in and not on selling their picks to others?
At first I thought it was a legit service. Now, with frequent emails requesting me to upgrade to $499/yr, to $5000 a year…whatever…it seems a bait and switch. And where did John Boehner go?
Thx,..very helpful. How can be non-refundable since their offer specifically states,..
Make 10X Your Money Or You Pay Nothing But here’s what I can promise you. At least FOUR IPOs will deliver 10X gains during the first year.
If they don’t just give my team a call at the end of your subscription. I’ll refund every cent you paid, no questions asked.
Thanks,These reviews are invaluable. for a investor to make a decision to invest.
Hi Eric,
Would you mind listing your email again as I just got on to this site today? Thanks
“I wouldn’t mind sharing with anyone what they recommend weekly during my two year license, please e-mail me if you’d like to know which they recommend: ericrboone@gmail.com“

Here is someone who is making money: Gwendolyn says: February 5, 2019 at 3:52 pm Greg: Really enjoy your analysis. My Cannabis portfolio was up $70K for the month and I have 10% stop loss or equivalent stop limit on all as expect a serious correction is likely to occur in the not too distant future.
It seems as though they ask for money to get you in, then they ask you for more money to see this report and they ask you for more money to see that data. I think the only ones making lots of money are the folks that have ownership in NICI. I am not impressed and think it is close to a scam……..
Now you know. They all work this way because they cannot make money on the market.
