The online verification did not proceed well and was inconclusive. It may have been due to poor cell phone reception.
The 'live ' I'd processwas good and very good. The agent was excellent.

It was a Peggy Lee Experience, (is that all there is?). But I did it! I felt supported throughout and accomplished my goal. I wish I could learn to dial back my anticipatory anxiety.

A valuable and Safe Service
August 28, 2022

I had not heard of this service before. I knew and appreciated the fact that many businesses and organizations offered benefits to people who had served the public in many careers that were underappreciated in the past. ID.me makes it easy and safe to access these benefits by verifying that I am eligible for offers for people they wish to reach. I really find this a valuable service.
