October 15, 2024

ID.ME made it very easy to apply from home instead of going to an office sitting all day and waiting for someone to assist you.

Verifying my identity was very easy but once I did, this page was supposed to redirect me to my unemployment benefits page in North Carolina and it doesn't. I've tried multiple times and the timer runs out giving me an error code. I have not been able to file my unemployment claim because of this.

The picture taking of my ID was difficult, I kept getting flash marks on my face and a blurred picture when I tried to do it without my glasses had to do this several times to get one that looked halfway decent

Leaving abroad
October 15, 2024

The agent was very helpful, patient and diligent. Extremely professional. Even though I had connection problems she was very patient. I also had technical problems with my headset she took time and contacted me on the phone while still being connected on zoom.
Excellent service

Why is a review necessary?
October 15, 2024

It was a mandatory setup if I wanted to use the IRS website. If it's not optional, why would a review be warranted or even considered when I am not the client? Who cares if I am satisfied with the ID part of the experience when I prefer not to have an experience with any of you in the first place? I didn't hire you, you don't need my opinion or my satisfaction to continue your work and I resent being asked for feedback for something I didn't want to do in the first place! But yeah, it was fast and easy, worked the first attempt, and turns out it was the only part that worked as it was supposed to… it got me the access I needed but it didn't do me any good as the IRS was typically not current or accurate on their website once I got logged in. But you did fine, thank you.
