Express and above, automatic True View?

Is PCGS automatically doing TVs on express submissions? I was talking to a dealer who had a rare coin turned around in 3 days, it is hard to believe the imaging would have also been done in 3 days. Also is it automatic for TVs to be uploaded to the Coinfacts site?

Looks like it to me;
"Coins Required for Gold Shield Service: 1. All World (Non-U.S.) coins submitted under any service level other than Modern. 2. Any coin submitted under the Gold Shield-included service levels (Express and higher service levels).
**Gold Shield required for reholders valued above $3,000.
*** 1.Gold Shield Service included at no additional fee. 2. Gold and Plainum members only."

TrueViews are included in Gold Shield Service.

Not quite, most TrueViews are done within 5 day's of submission. At least that's been my experience. And, I believe most TrueViews done at a show are within a day or two.
Am sending in several for reholders + TV. Am I right that you can just add the gold shield service that comes with a TV for an extra $5 or would that not apply to reholders and only to coins getting graded?
Trueview on re-holder is not included in the $12 fee. It's an extra $5 and is required if the coin is valued over $3000 otherwise it's optional.
Trueview is included for free if you are using a Collectors club voucher (Gold and Platinum members)
Is this correct? Can PCGS Photo confirm? I just renewed my Membership and have the Voucher, there is no mention of this anywhere I can find.
I got that info from the latest submission form.
See the *** note in red at the bottom.
Express levels and above get Gold Shield Service - which means it gets photographed by our team. We may or may not need to send two photographers to a show. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
If you're submitting at lower service tiers you'd need to pay the Gold Shield fee if you want the TrueViews for all of them. Or the TrueView fee if you want a specific line photograph.
I guess there's not a huge reason for checking off TrueView on the submission - but if you do it's most likely that I'll personally photograph the order.
As I've stated in other threads we're behind on getting images deployed online so if you want something expedited contact us at photography@collectors.com

This is unnecessarily confusing.
