Yeah and sometimes they just drop the ball on the ID check. I didn't have a bill ready that has my physical address on it (none of my bills print this info) so they said they'd send me a piece of mail with a code in it. Never showed up, all attempts to contact them were ignored. Ended up just getting an $8 cert somewhere. I will say that once you do get into StartSSL (which I have through a previous company), it's nice to be able to create/sign unlimited certs.
