September 8, 2025

I Always look forward to using ID.me when using My Health Vet. And I love it that when I have to verify or use a "Who are you and what's your made up password", I love that I can just Tap ID.me and it practically holds my hand through the rest of the Verification. And POOF! You are where you need to be to Navigate your business. DONE!

SERIEDAD Y EFICIENSIA
September 8, 2025

Mi experiencia con el sistema de verificación de ID.me fue en general positiva y confiable. Aunque no pude completar el acceso debido a un error relacionado con mi número de Seguro Social, quiero destacar que el proceso en sí me pareció claro, profesional y seguro. La plataforma ofrece instrucciones fáciles de seguir y transmite confianza en cuanto a la protección de la información personal. A pesar del inconveniente técnico, considero que ID.me es una herramienta seria y bien estructurada, que brinda seguridad en los datos y confianza en el proceso. Me siento satisfecho con la atención recibida y agradecido por la transparencia de la plataforma. Estoy seguro de que, al resolver el detalle de mi Seguro Social, podré completar el proceso exitosamente.

I've used ID.me for years now, accessing services from the VA. Having dealt with signing into government systems for years, I feared the worst when I needed to access the VA for various services. However, though the set up took some effort, it has been a painless process through ID.me. It's so helpful, I usually don't even think about it -- its that painless. Whenever I need to access a critical service like the VA, its just a user/pass with a text/email confirmation. Too easy!

You write a wrong name
September 7, 2025

When somebody from your office called me and asked me about my wife name to verify my identity and I gave that information.
Later for my surprise my wife name appear in my application and said "Berta Garcia" not
"Juan Rizo" as supposed to be. Please make a correction as soon as possible. I really appreciate your support on this matter
Much more taking into consideration this is not the first time I am working with the IRS I worked for the last 30 years Regard

Ability to compromise system
September 7, 2025

I have used ID me for years to access my VA benefits site. There was a point in time in which I had people playing on my phone. On occasion someone seemed to be logging into the system and I would get a phone call as if I was logging in, but I was not. Then my phone would hang up. So the fact that our phone lines are not protected from intrusive listening and monitoring makes ID.me not as secure as you think.

ID.me is The Easy Button
September 7, 2025

I have been using ID.me for well over a year. It is my go to app for authentication to my gov and gov affiliated sites. I can't phantom going back to 16 to 20 character passwords for all the sites that ask you to change them every three months. ID.me provides improved secure access.
