Simple, Easy and Secure
October 19, 2022

Was a lot easier then I thought very easy to follow and under stand one or two tabs to click on its very straight forward making it simple. Didn't take much time at all to load the picture of the documents and it felt more secure. With the live video chat for finally verification and it's nice knowing it's alive person face to face in case any question or problems come up. I give my experience an A+

Overall it was a good experience. The agent was professional, nice and prompt in rendering service. However be prepared that some technical errors with connection may happen. Its going to. Require some patience. Also. Allot yourself some extra time in case there is a technical error. As aforementioned the experience was good and I would recommend.
