Provided a passport, provided a drivers license front and back, provided selfies. I've been trying over a year to get verified by this company. They state that I need to have video capability. Well, I don't. I have a desktop computer without a camera.

The whole experience was smooth, predictable, and well-designed; I was impressed! I had only one issue, where my license got rejected, because my last name comes first on it. All I had to do was just upload it again, and for some reason it worked fine the second time.
The whole process took a very little time after creating an account. It was straightforward and simple to follow.
