This was one of the most fun experiences I've had in my life. The gentleman on the phone was as pleasant as a baby that just woke up from a nap! I am pleased to be part of the identify theft study program and I feel like I am on top of the world. Thank you so much for your help, I probably wouldn't be here without you!
Was able to complete with no problem in a reasonable amount of time

The self service is awkward and difficult. Making an appoint with a service agent is quick and easy. It accepts exactually the same pictures that are rejected by the self-service page for verification. Agents are knowledgeable, professional and courteous.

It's 4am Saturday morning, I started this process maybe a week & a half ago everything was going smooth at first until I ran into a road block verifing my ID ME. For one my cheap phone wasn't taking quality pic's, and my Documents kept getting denied due to, blurry pics, addresses didn't match, etc I must've taken 200 different pics over the last week trying to verify! I even went to resource center in town for help to no avail but I didn't give up, and the support team helped me to the best of their ability and it's done now. Thank God! Ohh I stayed up until 320am to video call confirmation I could've rescheduled it but no way was I going to lose my spot In line knowing all I've been threw mentally and physically it was worth the wait and the gentleman in the video call was very professional, and welcoming & he walked me threw the proces even wished me a early Happy birthday
