Hello Laura. We’re glad you were able to complete your verification successfully. We appreciate your feedback! —T, ID.me
I've used a few systems similar to ID.me but everyone of them crapped out and never worked right. ID.me seems to be the exception. While it's a little rough around the edges when it came to the instructions, the procedure went through without a hitch. The hand-off from computer to mobile device worked quite well.
Efficient and simple. It tells you where to click in a nice simple format

This site was very nice and helpful and felt pretty secure
