ID.me feels like an easy to use service to help verify a person's identity. I have not done this before until now, but it is no way difficult to learn. I am grateful in the sense that this will ensure that people can verify their own identity through the form of a
Video call. To me, that reason alone is comforting. There is no doubt that identity theft is huge problem in this world. I personally believe ID.me is a step in the right direction. I hope that this service will continue to be utilized in the years to come. Thank you.

Hello Tiffany! Thank you for your 5-star review of ID.me. We sincerely appreciate your feedback regarding our member support agent. -ID.me Social Response Team
Everything went well, the only reason it is less a star is because, the volume of the interviewer is not loud enough for me to hear. I am a senior citizen, I can barely hear him, I had my nephew to help me, but the volume was at your end. Other than that, everything went very well.
