ID.me Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation, with notable strengths in its identity verification service, which many users found secure and efficient, particularly praising the helpfulness of customer service during video calls.

Additionally, delays and technical difficulties, including issues with document acceptance and login credentials, have led to dissatisfaction among several users. Overall, while the service is valued for its security, improvements in user experience and support are essential.

Hours wasted trying to comply with submission of documents, which because some had a PO Box, and some had a street address, but no way to enter both, so as to truncate the circular logic of their "affirmation" process

Is this legitimate?
January 20, 2025

Can not find any way to determine who is actually behind this company. A lot of very vague "word salad" type marketing language.
