I like to deal with machines because it seems it will be much more convenient. Lately it's time for me to change a new ID card. Now it's very convenient. There is a machine which nearby my home (10 minutes on foot) and it can work automatically all the time. So I followed its instructions and I inserted my old ID card insert. It had a cam and recorded my look. It scanned my photo barcode. I left my finger prints on the machine. It's easy. I finished it in several minutes. After about half a month I checked online that my new ID card is ready to be picked up. Then I went there and inserted my old ID card inside the machine. Soon my new ID card is available for me Everything goes well. I like the machine option. I didn't have to book online to have the service in business day.

It's great to hear that you had such a positive experience with the ID card renewal process! Using machines can definitely make things more convenient and efficient. It’s impressive that the whole process was quick and straightforward, from inserting your old ID card to picking up the new one. Plus, not having to book an appointment adds to the convenience. It seems like technology really is making everyday tasks easier. Do you think you’ll use similar machines for other services in the future?

I wish we had something like that here. Do you have to pay for it?

I just need to pay for the new ID card cost and no extra fee. This is nice.
