What a joke I wish I could sue them any attorneys think I have a case?
The instructions that were given to get into the system, just wasn't easy enough and it took too much time to get everything processed
The instructions were precise and easy to follow. The video agent was pleasant, and professional. The entire process took less than 15 minutes.
Enjoyable and safe.and easy to understand what I was doing as well as not been rushed or on the phone for hours
Quite difficult, complicating to upload documents with foreign address since there are no options other than US based document categories. Video session was good and friendly but the agent spoke very fast.
ID.me is a excellent service.It will keep ur identity safe, confidential.The agent was clear on documents, made me feel at ease.Very nice lady.Thanks God bless
Son muy buenas personas y con una gran paciencia y educación para su trabajo, el agente fué muy educado y agradable lo que facilitó terminar el proceso que tanto necesitaba
An extremely secure and elegant fashion of transition process. I had a very easy going time although it took me several hours in the waiting line the end result was very acquainted.
Was unable to get the desire information I needed I wanted to review my claims letter but unable because it could not be retrieved by your comlpany
A company with a moniker of ID ME. Some group from somewhere ( probably beltway bandits0 who've insinuated themselves into the Federal government. Soon to be part of the "TRIPLE AUTHENTICATION process... UGH. They probably mean well but who knows. And they need to be more, much more, about what they are going to do. BY THE WAY IT MAY BE THE best authentication in town if you really care.
Was very easy with help of the agent!
She was very helpful and knew exactly how to give me the help I needed.
Very easy-to-use, safe and secure. I was able to get direct access to my data and even apply for a ssc all from the comfort of my home with my smartphone.
Very clear and precise instructions. So much clearer than Login.gov. Instructions on Login.gov has lengthy instructions which sometimes hard to remember. ID.me has shorter instructions, I logged into, and had no issues.
2 years of hell and frustration. This has been going on for at least a year. I have come to the conclusion that with the education of whoever did this program, they failed the course, probably never given, called common sense, and also a course call ed how to deal with older veterans.
All very good.
I should be able to access state and federal tax accounts. I can see 3 years activity. I don't have medicaid or income supplemental accounts.
