My agent was a blessing.
March 30, 2023

My agent was professional and helpful. She was courteous and asked how I was doing. The video call experienced issues at the beginning but that was probably due to local cellular towers.

First it appeared from this end to be very secure.
Next, the level of assurance of who I am was definitely a very high bar to meet.
Phone verification codes to my Philippine phone number never came.
Inability to use Phone verification codes added very significantly to the time required to complete.
