My claim got approved... eventually

Everything would be great if I just didn’t have to go through a hassle of having to submit and then re-submit the same documents a few more times, waiting and hoping for the claim to be approved after each time. I did not find the process pleasant or fast, but I am glad in the end my claim did get approved. This is why I’m rating this experience a 7.
