Very well handled outstanding job you have a great team
My experience was confusing, cumbersome, redundant and frustrating. I simply quit trying to use this thing, whatever it is. I'm a Vet and am trying to use the "VA health" app, but it uses this "ID.me" to verify who I am. After 4 attempts and 4 security codes later, and STILL not able to get to use the app, I aborted.
Dont force a face scan on me with all these other ways to verify someone, im not being convicted of a crime, the irs needs to do better to understand who we are identification wise!

Easy to use and the identity is very secured
Just ready all your documents with you,
Awesome service, convenient, free, but very slow with the authentication of the identification documents.
It was straight forward and helpful. The rep was nice
My experience was AWESOME. The agents helped me resolve my issue fast and answered all my questions and explained everything to me. I am very happy with my experience.
Stuck in an Endless Loop - does not "complete" nor "finish" but there is NO ERROR MESSAGE. Whomever responded FAILED to actually READ the problem, therefore they sent me pre-form-written instructions THAT DO NOT APPLY TO THIS SITUATION!

My agent was professional and helpful. She was courteous and asked how I was doing. The video call experienced issues at the beginning but that was probably due to local cellular towers.
First it appeared from this end to be very secure.
Next, the level of assurance of who I am was definitely a very high bar to meet.
Phone verification codes to my Philippine phone number never came.
Inability to use Phone verification codes added very significantly to the time required to complete.
