Id military service. Several options in verification process. Easy to follow process. Email response when check was completed.
I held off a few days going through the process as I perceived it to be difficult. It was simple and pain free:-). Steve who did the video interview/verification with me was great!
The service is excellent. It looks like they are following the best security protocols of the industry. They are benchmarking against the best in the world.
This is a seamless process need to have your computer and your phone available, makes you feel more secure but it's somewhat time consuming but worth it
