As good as could be expected
November 28, 2022

Verifying identification is never fun, and it can get complicated trying to do it online. This was as painless as I could've hoped for, considering.

It was a very user friendly process that was very straightforward on what was needed, and it was quick at processing everything. Now that ID is verified so I won't have to keep doing it with new companies.

The process was a little intense and convoluted but, in the end, it accomplished the expected results.
A set of FAQs and a sheet 'walking you through the process as a guide would be beneficial, almost like a check off sheet that has the projected processes listed that you familiarize yourself with prior to 'jumping in' to the multiple steps.

Don't upload documents
December 28, 2022

Uploading and doing a face scan is time consuming and ultimately doesn't work. Do the video verification and be done with it.

My review of idme
November 28, 2022

Well the reason I had to do all this was due to a requirement by the IRS. I think that it was overall a new and a good learning experience using my scanner to upload the documents and a video was done with a referee at idme and that went smooth also to visually check my docs. Overall a 4star experience.
