Above par customer service
October 18, 2022

I had to call in twice because I hadn't noticed my license had expired. I'm not the best at technology and the rep was so patient and kind trying several optons until we were able to connect and then after all her hard work noticed my license was expired, sharp eye. She was kind and polite as she directed me what to do
The second time l called the gentleman was very knowledgeable and patient and was quick to change over yo another video chat mode. He was thorough and polite.

Hang in there it's worth it!
October 18, 2022

I had trouble understanding and was frustrate. When I requested help no matter the time I was helped up until the point of being completely done verifying myself and able to move on. If you are stuck just ask for help they are great at what they do and they make it hard for fraudster's which is what we all want. Very satisfied and I wasn't paid to say this lol!

Much easier than expected!
October 18, 2022

I had to register for ID.me in order to get copies of previous year's tax returns. I expected it to be incredibly time consuming and not very user-friendly but was pleasantly surprised. It really only took a few minutes and I felt comfortable with the fact that my personal information was well guarded and protected.

ID.me is a Quick and Easy!
October 18, 2022

I wanted to access a government website and forgot my log in info, so I decided to give ID.me a try. I'm glad I did! The process didn't require a long time waiting on the phone or for a letter in the mail. I simply completed the online requirements and a video chat with a team member and was done! I recommend using ID.me!
