ID'd with ease.
November 20, 2022

The whole ID process was preformed in a calm, professional and quality manner. It is unusual these days to come in contact with companies who have taken the time to instruct their staff in the proper and considerate way in which to interact with clients. Well done.

So secure, had me feeling insecure
November 19, 2022

I'm confident no one will be able to steal my identity and use it with ID me and if they put it that much work to steal it, they can have it. I could barely prove I was me. Actually, I was starting to have my doubts. Thankfully, a very helpful video chat agent helped to confirm that I am in fact still mysel. He was a total GEM. Cheers!
