Nothing beats real human contact. At first, I was tempted to feel disappointed that my auto-authentication failed and I would have to go the "real agent" route. However, I am so glad I did. I actually prefer being verified by a real person. It feels well, personal and personable (ie, human, LOL). The process was a LOT faster than expected; easy, authentic and DONE in a jiffy. The expected wait time was half of what was originally posted and it updates every 30 seconds. IMHO, this authentic person to person verification is THE game changer. It's in real time, at any time of the day. 5 STARS!
