Registering with ID ME
December 11, 2024

It was a great experience signing up with ID ME. I know this is the future of things to come especially when it comes to identity theft. Upload documents before beginning will make it more easier. So don't put it off, jump on it now.

Maybe I will update this review if I am ever able to verify myself with this service, but I wasted over 30 minutes holding still, staring into my phone, while it circled my face with a green line and made me look like a sketch. I had to wait for 5 minutes each time, but each time I got a vague error message and was instructed to try again... until I maxed out my failed attempts and was forced to wait in line for an "agent" to chat with me, which I also have not yet been able to accomplish. The website offers no troubleshooting or help with why the video selfies failed. Their chatbot isn't much help. I tried switching my wifi connection. Maybe I wasn't supposed to move? Holding painfully still for 5 minutes for the third time in a row is a bit enraging. I tried bringing my face closer, then farther- blinking or no blinking? Did it fail because someone in the room asked me a question and I replied? Because I looked away? Turning on more lights didn't help. I have no idea what went wrong, but the ordeal left me pretty upset. Especially when the instructions are so vague and the error messages even moreso.

It took some time but I believe I was able to clarify who I am and hopefully who I am not. I am still awaiting the final results.

As long as I'm my computer is OK. But if I had to try accessing ID for my information, I'd be screwed. Like this survey, too many questions to fill in. Ridiculous.

Login made easy

I used ID.Me to access my online accounts with VA, and others effortlessly. Once your identity is verified through the process, you do not need to repeat that step on future logins.

Great user experience
December 11, 2024

It is an easy and effective way to sign everywhere it is available for use. I wish it could be used for every locale that a user id and password is required to get access ti the site. Government (federal, state, and municipal) as well as Private companies.
