I had a problem with my id.me account which I tried for almost a year to recover. One video call directly with an agent from id.me quickly cleared my problem. I would definitely recommend going directly to id.me if you have any issues with your identity.
Positive experience, once set up, site verification is simplified greatly
They guide you through the process very quickly and easily. It was a piece of cake!
The experience for me was very quick and easy,
I'm can understand each step to follow without any problems, thank you!
The experience w/ signing in using my credentials from Apple, was very helpful, as most of us do not want more steps to go through to just sign up to a website. The ease of having this as an option, is outstanding. Thank you.
Very good. The site was very easy to use. Would definitely recommend using it.
Ok have not done anything yet maybe in the future experience
It was as challenging as it was inspiring but necessary to secure your information from violation.
Easy to set up, not difficult to navigate. Just make sure you have your documents set in front of you.
I set up two factor authentication and the web UI created a terrible experience. I ended up having to use my phone along with my computer with a lot of context switching between the two devices and tabs in both web browsers. And after everything I ended up not being able to use a passkey - so I still have to tap a checkbox, get a text message and type in a code. I use I'd.me to login to ssa.gov and it's just really clumsy
Having jumped through all the unnecessary loops only to find out that my identity is still not verifiable...
Complete BULL$#*!!
I want to like I'd.me. But to be honest I'm not sure what it actually does for me. How is it not different from having a trusted device and receiving a code?
I'm very satisfied with my experience. Thank you for assisting me.
It was Great I love it. It was wonderful using ID me. I was happy with the service i have received it. I would recommend everyone to use ID me
Thank so much. I can not thank enough
If you are up for repetitive failure, this is the program for you.
For me, ID.me is very secure and convenient, especially since I have multiple accounts that require the utmost security when signing in. I highly recommend ID.me!
