Way to much work for 5 minutes of transcripts.
Agent was awesome. Helpful and not treating you like an idiot. Also why can't they add a text message when the transcripts mail?

It's difficult to say anything about my experience here because I'm so new to the site. I mean everything seems to work well and be user friendly but I'm just scratching the surface

I wasted over 2 hours repeating the verification steps whereby I would upload photos of my drivers licence then pose in font of my phone for a visual recognition. Every time it failed at a different point. Finally it seemed to accept my documents only to tell me that it could not use my phone to verify my identity. Because I only have one phone I ended up doing a video call with a real person. She was incredibly helpful and patient and I was able to complete the verification without any issues.
