ID.me is a very easy verification service. Simple and safe.
It was fast and easy. It was after midnight and I needed to access an Important Acct and ID.Me was very easy to use to set up my acct. First step of verification didn't work, so the 2nd part was with a Live Agent via Video, but I didn't have to wait long for a Live Agent and the process only took about 3 mins with the Live agent and I was all set up.
