When I tried to get one for a project I was working on, it was a horrible convoluted hell. They needed all kinds of things scanned and sent to them. They wanted 2 government IDs, 2 financial documents and 2 non-financial documents. Everything had to be notarized. I had to get my financial documents notarized on a different day than the other documents, and had to have a different notary do those. They would not accept two different notaries that worked in the same office, or for the same organization. (In my case, my local banking branch). Finally was able to get everything sent in and then they asked me to notarize and sign an additional document called the "face-to-face". So I get that in. All told, it takes them over a month to verify the certificate. They send me the link and key to download it. In the email they send, they say that I can use IE, Firefox or Chrome. I use Chrome. The certificate is corrupted upon download. I tell them and they say it's because I used Chrome. I forward them the email they had sent me that specifically stated chrome could be used. They refuse own up to it and re-issue and because it had been 30 days since purchase, I could not get a refund. It was such a horrible pain that I just gave up on my project and never published it, rather than go through the whole process again. There has got to be an easier way to verify someone is in fact a human.
