Screw the BIG Guy, 10% (off) for Me!
November 1, 2022

Being an elderly disabled Veteran, trying to live on a fixed income, I don't have much to spend on "extras", so every little bit helps, especially in today's economy.
I've only used ID.me a couple times, at Lowe's & Magpul, hoping to find more opportunities to make use of this valuable asset. Thank You for all you do to help the community.

A Secure Process
November 1, 2022

Once I got the identification documents ready, I was verified quickly via video. I was hesitant. The person I talked to was friendly and made the process fast and easy. After I logged in to one of the websites, I got a phone call that verified if it was me. It is a fast, easy, and secure process.

Secure, fast and easy
November 1, 2022

I decided to try ID.me because I could get a great discount off a phone by going through here and verifying my status. Honestly, I debated on whether it would be worth the time but once I got on here, it was so easy, fast and simple, and all you have to do is look for what you want on this website, click on it and the savings there at the checkout. Definitely worth the 5 minutes to sign up!
