Excellent and fast not too difficult to have a video call
When I set up my account, everything went flawless. But every time after that, I was unable to login, because the verification code they were supposed to send in a text never arrived. Even after several attempts to have it resent, it never came through.
I thought it was a hassle continuous tries on a Android was the problem as soon as I did it on my laptop I went straight through it and got done with it no hassle so I will say using upgraded phone or a computer will help you in the long run
I was taken to the sites, in a matter of seconds. Once at the various sites, everything was so clear in helping me complete and get the Successful finish message and know that my wait was over.
I.D.me made sure it was I, they were helping
