Their product didn't work Their product didn't work. Customer service offered a partial refund (excluding shipping costs). That's unheard of. When a product is returned, all payments are refunded and some will even send the client a free shipping label. When a product is faulty, that's goes without saying.

series 5 nfc buggy bought 2 series 5 nfc totally buggy to a point where yubikey-manager couldn’t read the seriol# of both keys anymore and AOL rejected both keys in that condition. support totally ignored my issues and closed my tickets before solving them How does anyone trust a company or a piece of hardware that buggy??

Solid security keys I've owned a variety of YubiKeys since 2014, and I've always been very happy with them, I've only had to replace them either because I lost them or because I wanted some newer features, like USB-C or NFC. They seem to be the gold standard for security keys for a reason.

U2F Keys from Yubico I think having this type of security (U2F Key) and replacing other methods is just excellent. Combined with a password manager like Dashlane for example is just top notch and definitely safe from attacks. It's an open authentication standard that enables internet users to securely access any number of online services with one single security key instantly and with no drivers or client software needed. They come in many sizes fit to the users needs, obviously make sure to have a few spare.

Non Existent Customer Service - Also Just Plain Rude Shockingly bad, full-friction customer journey. Customer Service is non-existent for all practical purposes including initial purchase. I wanted to spend 15 minutes buying these security keys - I'm at the end of day 2 now and still haven't made the freaking purchase due to non-existent help from Yubico and their so-called resellers in the UK. The resellers don't actually sell anything, they refer you on to someone else. If you want to get a freaking headache then please go ahead and start your journey with these unhelpful, rude, time-wasting, arrogant people.
