What customer service should be and more, hands down would like this experience everywhere
While at first I thought it was excessive and redundant, after going through the process I learned otherwise. It is simple step by step. Very easy to set up and very secure.
The process was fast, easy, and simple to use. It was user-friendly.
Smooth and easy sailing thanks to everyone involved.
Quick and painless to register to make all transactions more secure. Just needed to take photo of drivers license front and back. Also a selfie was required. App worked flawlessly. No problem. Nice to see the IRS have more safety features and more automation, bringing the tax system into 21st century.
