Security issues
October 14, 2023

Taking a picture of a drivers license, and a Social Security card to me and transferring it through video, is unsecure. Whether they say it's secure or not. Too much opportunity to be stolen. Third party operation. There are other ways for identifying an individual.

Not an easy system to use.
October 14, 2023

After getting an undescriptive error message 7 times I was finally able to get it to accept my information and verify my military service but never completed the entire process so the corporation looking for the verification never received it, I then had to go through the process yet again.

Bad Biometrics
October 13, 2023

The process is very simple except one major obstacle, the biometric system. It is a great method in theory yet is not efficient. I had to repeat the process 5 times, and still had to submit to video chat for verification

WAY better than having to go somewhere and do this in person - only glitches for me weren't actually glitches, they were a bit of confusion between using my computer and using my phone. If there was a bit more clarity of what sequence to expect that worked while I was performing the activity instead of wondering if I was taking the right step I'd have given it 5 stars - and if there was a 4.5 here Id have given it that.
