I attempted the self verification multiple times with multiple clear pics of the documentation required. I would get through the entire process only to be told I was unable to be verified. After these attempts, I went the other route to speak with an agent. It literally took one minute for him to take a screen shot of my documents (which I'm sure was no better than what I had taken) to be "verified." Skip the self verification to save yourself time and annoyance!

Would give zero stars if I could
April 30, 2023

Really poor interface. Does not tell you when something is not up to their "standards', you have to figure it out. No optional ways of submitting information, even though it says "I don't have a smart phone" it still requires that you be confirmed by telephone and link to browser. Really frustrating!
