Overall, while the service is valued for its security, improvements in user experience and support are essential.

Don't Use Unless There's No Choice
February 13, 2025

First, I resent the fact that I did not have a choice but to use this overly cumbersome login protocol. Next, I resent the time it took and the needless complexity to set it up. Finally, it took several attempts, the first of which was a month earlier.

Unstoppable professionalism
February 13, 2025

Was painless and they were very patient with me as we had technical difficulties. They had ensured I had no problem getting back in and all 3 agents had great attitudes not like I was a burden or they didn't want to be there. Thank you for the peace of mind.

After I submitted a request for help, an instruction was emailed to me and I followed the instruction and received some error messages that I described to them. Then the same instruction was emailed to me again. So frustrated, the virtual assistance probably couldn't understand my issue...
