I would like to say to all people who posted on this thread that voiced OPINIONS and no FACT that you are talking absolute RUBBISH! capital alternatives has made me substantial amounts of money! 31% on my Agri capital investment witch I believe Capital Alternatives have just won an award for! so how can the 'smell bad'???? they even offered me a money back guarantee!!! all of your opinions could potentially be damaging to a solid investment company so I suggest you take back your words, just because a company is not well known doesn't make them 'smell bad' and you have no right to say that. My Broker is fantastic and would HIGHLY recommend them. They even have a project that is in line with JP Morgan! so think about that when you post with your snide silly comments, if you haven't dealt with them you know NOTHING!
 
Hi Folks
Newby here:)
Just a note to say that I have also invested with Capital Alternatives - probably more recently than Gander and bobmyers, so no actual returns as yet but all looking VERY positive. Like Gander, I have also visited them at their offices in London earlier this year. Looking forward to more news on AgriCapital in due course.

Hi Bob - Any chance you could post some more specific details? Who is your fantastic broker that highly recommends them? What particular award did they get?
 
I'm unable to post a link as apparently I need to have made 15 posts before I'm allowed to do this on here - so - do a search for OPP awards and see category 17. Agri Capital Ltd won the gold award. They are also hoping to list on the UK stock market (AIM) in the near future.
Lots more info on Capital alternatives and their other products on their website too. Give them a call! They're open on a Saturday morning:)
 
Nice to see that Seeko is able to answer the question that I addressed to Bob. I'm sure that's just a sign of a generally helpful attitude, and not any kind of indication that they may be one and the same person.

And the award they got is from Overseas Property Professionals - an advertising and sales firm that runs marketing events. Classy stuff indeed.
 
Not the same person - sorry - didn't mean to "butt in":eek:. Just trying to be helpful.
 
Indeed, any firm whose highlight is an OPP award should be avoided like plague. Simple rule is that no-one can guarantee you 15% returns. I dont care what they have done in the past. Madoff was also offering huge returns.
 
This does look like a superb investment. If it's OK I'd rather use Western Union and have no problem sending the funds to Nigeria where I'm sure the agri business sector is poised for take-off soon. Where do I sign up? Do I get a special discount if I get others to sign up? Could we call it the "ponzi discount"?
 
This is my favourite part of their website


"By working with the Financial Services Authority (FSA) the structure of our products ensure that they do not fall within the regulated sector, and are not subject to crippling regulatory costs and charges. We are therefore able to pass on greater margins to introducers. Investors have to be aware however these are non-regulated investments, they are not afforded protection under the FSCS."

This is the most creative use of the phrase we are not regulated by the FSA and you will be afforded no investor protection by the regulator that I have ever seen in 25 years in Financial Services. Well done Capital Alternatives you make regulation seem like a bad idea. They certainly deserve the marketing award. Inspired!
 
Fair play Marc for your observations !!!

100% for Capital Alternatives for creativity. 1000% for trying to fool the Public.

Investors, Make your minds up. But don't come back to AAM and blaming all and sundry if it all goes pear shaped.

Brilliant!
 
I wonder if some of the threads are actually 'planted' by those in Capital Alternatives. There is a Mr Gander who works as an agent for them and is ringing me up frequently (and here there is a post from Gander - could be coincidence). I have invested in Room to Invest at his say so, only for him to ring me after a few months to say that Room to Invest is not a good investment and I should pull out and join Agri Cap (or similar sounding name). I am asked to invest even more than the original from RTI. The snag is that when I try to contact RTI, I only get Capital Alternatives, and even Mr Gander doesnt know how to ring RTI direct. This makes me worried sick, and the word SCAM SCAM SCAM screams in my face. I am trying to get my money out, but Capital Alternatives are dilly dallying to put it very mildly.
 
I have just invested a little money with this company, everything seems to be going ok at the moment . . . . . . Just been offered a new investment opportunity by them with apparently miraculous returns. I am cautious about investing more though and will see how my original investment performs before going any further down this road.

However I will be popping in for a cup of tea next time I'm in town.
 
It appears that everyone who has had dealings with this company are happy with the returns . I tried to invest a small portion of my SIPP in to this Land ( Rice) opportunity.
Unfortunatley or Not , my Finanial advisor and the finance company ( AVALON ) would not release my funds , stating they had intellience which suggested I should not invest.
I have asked for this intelligence in more detail , but they refuse to respond .
I still would like to invest but I cant use my SIPP so it stays in the UK earning -3% every year.
 
It really is amazing that any posters who choose to sing the praises of Capital Alternatives are in the main first time posters. Anybody at all that has a history behind them to add comment ??
 
We have to join at some point we cant all be saddo's who sit on these forums all day. take a chill pill .
 
Fromk an earlier post on page 1, from capital Alternatives:
"..2. Investment grade wine (rated by George Parker - the leading wine
specialist);"

I think they meant Robert Parker, famed wine expert. Not an auspicious reference, in my opinion.:)
