They say
If we cannot verify your age during checkout you must manually verify your age.

For Manual Verification will need to provide:
  • Birthday
  • Last 4 Digits of your Social Security Number
  • ID Upload
I have ordered from a Veratad using site (MVS) and I didn't have to enter last 4 of SSN because they were able to verify via public records.
Oh, I see. Screw up on my part for real. I'm bouncing trying to do 10 things at once. Now, I'm happy.

There may have been something that didn't quite match with what they were seeing with the info they found.

Koolkiz is right. I've already been verified with Veratad and I went to Eciggity to place an order to check them out and they DID ask me for my DOB and last 4 of SSN. MVS is using Veratad and they didn't ask for anything so something isn't right with Eciggity. I'm not a happy camper either. I backed out on my order. :cry:

I'll have to add this to the list. :(

Here's my theory with Eciggity. They don't know that they don't have to provided DOB or last 4 of SSN to Veratad so they ask for it. All Veratad needs is your name and address and maybe CC# which you provide. They can find your DOB from public records with what you provide at checkout. That was all that I provided to MVS.

I talked to CS at eciggity and this guy sounded like he knew what he was talking about and understood the situation. I told him about my experience with MVS (no personal questions) and he was baffled and said he would pass the info onto the owner. He also said that they were looking into another AV service so I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

between here and there
They should be on the list now. And as far as being a previous custom, so am I. <shrug>
tm...ecig-city is not the same as eciggity. I have gotten them confused several times myself, and along with ecig.com...............so many variations of the same start of the name, it gets very confusing.

    Well just to be clear as eciggity is being talked about right now, I am not talking about eciggity, I am talking about ecig-city.com just saying as still don't see them on the list, so didn't know if you thought I meant eciggity

    Oh crap! :facepalm: Yep, I read eciggity. I've changed the list but the info on eciggity is still correct. Sorry about that. :blush:

    I'm sure glad you guys are keeping me on my toes. :laugh:

    In response to an inquiry of a new.2.me vendor as to which system they use ( bluecheck- Veritad), they replied "We use an EVS system :)"

    Meaning they don't want to name them now??
    @Sugar_and_Spice (I think) explained what this is but I can't find it I think maybe their own coding and not a service?

    I think the FDA is going to have lots of fun sorting all this out.

    I still don't understand why all vendors just don't ship with adult signature required. No third parties involved and no need for threads like this. It would seem the simplest and cheapest way to verify age. Am I missing something? I'm sure some will let me know. :?:

    Cost will be a factor too
    Delivery Confirmation Adult Signature Required: US$5.25 per package for UPS and $5.95 per package for USPS - in addition to shipping cost.

    so for example priority mail (beginning at) $6.45 USPS + adult signature $5.95 = $12.40
    depending of course, personally I would not mind paying the extra but not on something like a pack of coils :)

    @Koolkiz see above at Jugband's post. There may have been something that didn't quite match with what they were seeing with the info they found.

    Sorry this happened to you :(
    Oh, I didn't order. I jumped the gun to quickly tho.:)

    Back reading...maybe not.

    Tried that and still couldn't find the data needed. Wonder if I have to be on the check-out page?

    Yup. It only looks at the code for the page it's on. (The whole page, not just the currently visible screen.)

    The list has Halo asking for SSN. I have ordered from Halo twice post 8/8 and they did NOT ask for anything. There was a notice the first time that AV was in progress. When it finished there was a note that I would not need to be verified again.

    Quick and efficient. I have ordered from them many times and have an account in place. Someone else may have been asked for SSN--but that was not my experience. Just want to make sure the information on the list is correct.

    Thank you for that info. It may be best to remove SSN from Halo since the person that had this happen to may not have had a match during the verification and was ask for additional ID. A lot of this info may change in the near future so it's best to keep an eye on it and post any experiences that may be different from what is on the list.

    I placed an order with ecigexpress yesterday and there was no age verification. They are just a flavor company and not required to verify age so I don't get it.
    I have been buying liter size 100 mg/ml nic base from them for years. That is why they must verify for the FDA. Veratad If I remember.
