I am not especially computer literate and felt there was a lot of information in the way of the process to establish a direct deposit. I believe it could be simplied but I was eventully able to get set up. My advice is to stick with it and you will get it done.

My experience was not nearly as painful as I thought it would be, from prior experience with other companies. I could do small tasks in-between waiting for my rep with the call estimation online. My rep was kind, courteous, and thorough, and it was overall a surprisingly pleasant experience.

Hello Daniel! Thank you for your feedback regarding the identity verification process. We sincerely appreciate your 5-star review of ID.me. -ID.me Social Response Team
This is an ID verification site. I have some unusual and ancient IDs, but they were reviewed, and an extremely patient agent verified them during a video interview. I was amazed that it was possible to do it in a day (there was a 1.5 hour wait for a video interview, but that's nothing compared to the amount of time document verification for various purposes used to take).
Filling out forms is a process designed to derange humans by requiring them to determine which one of a disjunction of sets of papers (with an incomplete description of each set) they can provide, under the condition that obtaining some of the papers in a set requires further forms or papers requiring forms, with each of the forms possessing the same property, so that in the general case the process does not terminate. However, this step terminated and was easy, thanks to the agent's expertise.
