The Lady that I spoke with was very polite and to the point
A bit hesitant to begin, but was quite easy and simple to understand.
So easy and perfect.
No time just done in couple of minutes.
I passed all of the verification but the phone.
How to prove my identity...
You have my SSN, my ID, video of my face.
But failed to be verified because of a phone number?
Maybe ill send my DNA to them to prove its me since my phone number can not prove that it is me,
Siit website and only God knows how they scammed and lured the government to partnership with them.
BUT the live agent i talked to to help me got verified was super nice and kind!
SO that is the only plus on here.

It worked very well for my need. I gave the required information asked for by ID.me and my credentials were very quickly ascertained and the result was automatically populated / inserted in to the box on the website asking for my credentials which gave me a 10% discount on the merchandise i ordered. I thank you ID.me. Marc
I had to ID myself to the IRS for a payment plan. It was 4 in the morning, (I have insomnia) and it worked! I was impressed, I even got an agent live at that time when the camera alone couldn't ID me. So even for a senior citizen like me, it worked out OK, when I often have trouble with newfangled apps. I also feel very safe and secure using ID.me
