ID.me has high expectations
March 24, 2023

I didn't know I needed Zoom, or how to operate it. Why assume that everyone knows they need to have Zoom? Why assume I can operate the thing? Give more information up front, or expect much longer service time - not from your end, but from mine, while I try to figure out what to do. Very bad form.

Real Experience with ID.me
March 24, 2023

I thought that identifying myself with ID.me was going to be difficult, time-consuming, and intrusive and it was definitely NOT any of these. The questions were straight-forward and I felt secure in answering them. Most impressive was the way the program usd my phone to take pictures of my driver's license and my selfie to identify myself. I needed to identify myself quickly, and ID.me made the process simple and safe. Thank you for this perfect way of establishing my identity.
