USELESS
December 10, 2024

This stupid service requires me to take a selfie or a video to access my accounts. Since I have a PC and don't have a camera, I'm now locked out of my accounts. How stupid are these people? Avoid this service.

Be Prepared
December 10, 2024

The process is fairly easy. It's a bit time consuming. It would be helpful to have a list of all the information one might need. The instructions were easy to follow.

It felt like its adding insult to injury dealing with ID.ME.com
Here I am dealing with ID fraud and I am trying to protect myself and ID.ME is making it worse,
Talk about kicking you when you're down. Why could the IRS not give me an IP-PIN? After all this account work with ID.ME?
PLEASE HELP ME!

Complicated and questionable
December 10, 2024

Not sure U even am in the system. The sign in process was complicated and I feel extremely uneasy that I had to provide my social security number on line. I don't believe I have ever done that before and in retrospect truly wish I had not done that.

Countryside Chevrolet

From first contact ( extremely cold weather) my sales rep was knowledgeable, polite, not pushy, and respectful of my wants and needs. (Mike Hopkins) Did NOT ask where my husband was to negotiate the deal! So nice! I'll trade with him anytime!

Most extensive ID company I know of.
December 10, 2024

Didn't expect this to be so extensive setup, with drivers license # and photo id, with other information, but I do feel safer that it won't be hacked. Thanks ID.me

ID.me is essential
December 10, 2024

The ease with which ID.me makes you feel secure about the quantity of sensitive data I have out here as a veteran, if it was more prevalent a standard, would put LifeLock-like handlers out of work.
