Great Experience
January 4, 2023

I was directed to ID.me by a state government agency. This had me about as excited as anticipating a root canal. However, the process was easy, intuitive, and quick. The customer service agent was outstanding and professional. The experience greatly exceeded all expectation.

I needed to join a video conference to verify my documents due to some changes I had in my phone number and address. Lamara was incredibly sweet and kind and made this experience extremely enjoyable.

Easier than expected.
January 4, 2023

Well worth the trouble. It was fast and painless, especially the video chat. My Representative was professional, polite, easy to understand, and fast in collecting information required to verify my identity. I was hesitant about all this but found that it was definately worth continuing and finishing. Thank you!

I VOTE FOR VIDEO VERIFICATION
January 3, 2023

The video verification process was so much easier than trying to take images of my documents and the facial recognition process. That took over 2 months and my identity was still not confirmed. The agent was able to do so in less than 5 minutes and she was very pleasant.
