The agent was very professional and efficient, I waited 2 hours to talk to someone, which seemed lengthy. The ability to verify without talking to someone would be helpful.
The agent walked me through each part of the process efficiently. She was professional and quick. This is not something you should dread.

Hello Qiylaala! Thank you for your 5-star review of ID.me. -ID.me Social Response Team
I uploaded my two forms of ID, but was unable to be verified by that alone although I have resided at the same address for many years. I waited to do a video call with a representative which was a long wait, about thirty minutes. This was on a Saturday, kudos for availability on the weekend. The representative was helpful and pleasant and took care of things right away for me. Although parts were difficult, overall a good experience.
