It was such a simple process and the wait time was even less than estimated. I was provided with an agent who was professional and to the point. I felt super comfortable and reassured by the quality of service received. If you use this resource, you will not be disappointed!

If I can do it...
March 29, 2023

I thought doing my identity verification was going to be more difficult than it was because "computers always fight with me"!...So I procrastinated! When I finally sat down to do it, it was remarkably easy! I "stumbled" once or twice, but was successful! If I can do it...you can do it! ;)

Worst thing ever!
April 28, 2023

Getting hit in the face with a baseball bat would be better. Took over 2 hours. Their system would not accept the photos from my phone. Then when their system said it could not verify me it left me with no options. Totally terrible. I will not subject my clients with this and will use other companies. I could not be more displeased.

I originally made an ID account to access tax information. Now I see how useful it can be in a variety of situations where you need your identification verified and safe at the same time.
