Tech. Support - All "A Pluses"
November 8, 2022

I am a 72 year old Vietnam Combat Vet. I would easily describe myself as Technically Challenged. I was having considerable difficulties with properly setting up my I.D. Me account. As a new VA health care patient, I wanted the capabilities the Preferred Account offered. The Help Desk Tech Support was beyond excellent! It is comforting to now have access to my VA health care providers, pharmacy, appointments, messaging and more. Thank you for assisting me with setting up this very important tool.

Fast, Easy and Secure Service
November 8, 2022

The service provided was very thorough and easy to follow. The information provided beforehand on the website was easy to understand and prepared me for the video call verification process. Once I had my documentation in order, the submittal was easy, the documents were reviewed quickly and within just a few minutes I was connected with a live agent. The agent was very friendly and professional and everything was completed in just minutes. Everything was done in a secure manner.

Unfortunately it has become rare these days to have exceptional service with customer service agents but it was very refreshing to speak with Heidi K!
I honestly wish there were more people like her in the customer service business so as a veteran I strongly encourage others to not only complain when things don't go well but to reward those who give great service like Heidi K and continue to write positive reviews for people like her!
Thank you!
