ReplyDeleteYou have to jump through hoops to get this deal. I am a retired FF with 25 years in the fire service and they would not take my 25 year certificate as proof of being a FF. Then they want you to sign up for some kind of credits on the I.D. website. Good Luck
Thank you very much for the comment, Jim. We are sorry to hear that you encountered some difficulties to take advantage of this deal (thank you for serving the community for such a long time, by the way!). We are interested in hearing if anybody else is having (or has had) similar experiences.
