Just Fine
September 14, 2022

The procedure was a little obscure, but overall experience was fine. The only drawback I encountered was the length of wait time to connect with an agent for live chat. Agent was professional. The length of time to complete the chat was minimal. I was satisfied with the results.

Although the wait time for the call was not amazing, given it was early on a Monday morning, that was to be expected. The process of uploading documents was simple and straightforward. The agent I was connected with was professional and very helpful.

Quick and Painless
July 11, 2022

The verification process was quick and painless. I've already had my Driver License photo (front and back) saved to a file from other processes so this made the ID.me process very quick and painless for me. I just uploaded my already saved DL photos then did a quick selfie on my phone from a link they sent me and I was verified soon after. Very streamlined. That really works for me.
