 Anyone with a ticket done this... 
What a PITA.
 
Went to pick mine up yesterday afternoon in New London. 
Went to the office where I enrolled and where the online form told me to go... find a note said they switched offices, across the river in Gales Ferry... 1hr later I found it.
 
typical %$%$%$%$ed up system.... one guy had been there 2hrs, and another just showed up at 2p for an 1130a appointment b/c he was lost for 2+hrs...
 
at least I have it for 5 years   |

$132.50    
I have an appointment in 2 weeks to pick mine up. 
Went for my interview (had an appointment)  @ 11:30  about 4 weeks ago, by the time I filled out the questioner it was 12 noon,  the 1 guy in the office that was working said "you have to come back in an hr.   I go to lunch from 12 - 1"     
I was told a rumor there is another ticket they are working on implementing @ the cost of $800 |
