FYD Arizona REVIEW ( self )

submitted by ra7chet Warning: 0%

Just want to start off by saying this ID I got on 07/27 did not pass the bouncer test & got taken away at Exchange LA in CA. It wasn’t because I didn’t act right or because I look to young. If this review gets taken down, it’s because it doesn’t showcase FYD in a positive manner & because the admins of this site take too long to add reviews to the main site. These IDs work for buying alcohol & very ‘lax bars BUT THAT IS IT! I will be doing my full review here minus the photos so everyone can see it right away.

COMMUNICATION: 10/10 - They reply to your tickets quickly.

COST: 10/10 - got this ID during their 4th of July Sale so it came out to $40 which isn’t bad considering I bought multiple Henny Bottles with this ID.

SHIPPING: 9/10 - took about the same time as advertised.

SIGNATURE: 5/10 - DO NOT USE THE SIGNATURE PAD, THE SIGNATURE COMES OUT TOO THICK & IS A DEAD GIVEAWAY. I RECOMMEND LETTING THEM GIVE YOU A SKINNY SIGNATURE SO IT LOOKS MORE AUTHENTIC! This is probably what gave away my ID.

PICTURE: 6/10 - MY PICTURE WAS FADED & had some lines going through it which was a giveaway. Should’ve asked for a reprint given how poor the picture came out. Didn’t want to complain as it was my first order ever but I have some coming in the mail that I’m not confident in anymore. Hope my customers don’t get owned the same way I was.

TEMPLATE: 9/10 - Everything was decent, a little faded compared to a real O21 ARIZONA DL but it’s not a giveaway like some of the other features.

PHOTOSHOP: 9/10 - giving it a 9/10 because the photoshop job wasn’t the issue. Moving on.

HOLOGRAM: 10/10 - vibrant and very noticeable. Maybe a bit too noticeable compared to a real O21 Arizona DL.

UV: 10/10 - Works fine.

SCANNING: 10/10 - Use the duplicate to get into a bar using the scanning feature. Thank god it saved what remained of the night by allowing me to get fucked up with my girlfriend and try to forget getting owned at the club.

CONCLUSION: ONLY BUY AN FYD ARIZONA IF YOU ONLY WANT TO BUY ALCOHOL. Does NOT pass higher levels of inspection. According to the reviews accumulated on this site, FYD is one of the highest rated yet didn’t come through for me when I needed it the most. I WANT SOMEONE OUT THERE TO SHOW ME THE BEST ID ON THE MARKET BECAUSE I WAS PLANNING ON ATTENDING A MUSIC FESTIVAL WITH MY GIRLFRIEND WITH THIS ID BUT NOW I DONT FEEL CONFIDENT IN IT. I hope FYD improves upon these errors for future orders/customers. I believe they can have the best product available for the price if they fix these issues.

OVERALL: 6/10 - DIDNT PASS!

LOL at pretty much all of this.
So we gotta start talking about the lack of photos.
Not hard to upload them, super easy to just drop and imgbb album or embed links into the review.
And the out of ten scores: so many 10 out of 10s yet your conclusion is a 6/10. I'm not a math major but...
Also this isn't a bad experience at applebees that you put on yelp, yet the random ALL CAPS RANTING makes you sound like what the kids are calling a "karen"
What's my point? Until we see a pic of the pic on the ID, we have no idea if you are
A) Totally right that FYD either had a printing issue on this ID or a PS issue (Don't know why you ruled that out, shows ignorance of the process)
B) Totally wrong and submitted a bad photo, which happens all the time.
Because overall everything else you brought up...sig too thick, its usually that its too handwriting-ey, not that it's too thick, and "It's not because I didn't act right...." okay bud.
Let's try this again with pics....anybody on here knows I'm not exactly a fan of FYD, but I'm even less of a fan of reactionary BS as well

I do realize how the lack of proof makes it seem but I’ll remind you I wrote this at like 3am & frustrated about how the night played out. Will upload right after this comment. You’re right about the reactionary response, again attribute that to how I was feeling about getting owned. About the signature, you’ll see. It looks goofy compared to a real one. Check out the botched back too

Photo is crappy quality, couldn’t even photoshop the glare off my cheek.

Template is faded compared to the Real ID

Signature is poor quality to say the least.

Back barcode is botched

For the record, I’m just giving my honest review. I didn’t intend to make this to throw dirt on the FYD name or reputation, I just see tons of perfect reviews about their products when they are far from it. I know vendors can only get so close to the real thing but the errors on mine are just plain unacceptable given how easily they could have been prevented. I plan on doing business with them if they can get these issues fixed but I am also actively looking for a new vendor who can meet my needs.

I get it, it's a rough night to have.
Looking at the photos you picked, the lines I see are the template being layered over the photo. Most IDs have a template like this but that doesn't mean their isn't play with how visible they should be...not really sure what the norm for AZ is bc I don't often see physicals. Sig does look a bit big, but I think with a slightly neater sig and better lit photo, you could have success with the same ID template
EDIT: and yeah if the back barcode is improperly printed at all, then that is an issue for sure.
