Went well, the verification for my identity was very secure.
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!
The process to identify was very secure and professional and courteous
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! ;)
This process was easy to follow and was really fast. I had no issues with it scanning my face and verifying my ID.

When I got your letter I was scared. I am happy with your help, I've resolved this issue
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.
