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. However, significant concerns were raised regarding the complexity of the verification process, which some customers found frustrating and time-consuming, particularly older users or those with unique identification issues. 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.

Needs a call center.
September 10, 2024

Because I can't get help from someone right away waiting on email replies mean while to get stuck waiting for hours from get assistance from the RA and can't deal with both at the same time I recommend that people get one of many apps that do verification and is less difficult to get help.

I'd rather be held at gunpoint
September 10, 2024

A reasonably extrapolated form of ID.me is worse than having Troopers show up at my door every day, point their guns at me, and then decide whether or not they want to pull the trigger that day. At least with state troopers, over time I would get to know my would-be executioners. There's just too many completely obfuscated ways for this info gathering, warehousing, analysis, and retention to go wrong via corruption and human nature, whether that be in a disgruntled employee, a malfeasant board member, a blackmailing mob boss, opportunistic hackers, psychologically manipulative scammers, hostile nations, corporate terrorists, or the criminals in all sides of State and Federal government.

My decision to go with ID.me
September 9, 2024

I chose ID.me because a friend recommended them. I was torn between both apps and after reading up on their information I felt that they were the one for me. I had to have a video chat with an agent and I have to say I was a little nervous but she was very nice and we got through the process very easy. I highly recommend using their secure site.

Would not ever like to do this again!
September 9, 2024

Not a good experience and the reason for this IDENTIFICATION does not seem "valid". We paid taxes for over 50 years with NO problems ever and now we needed to be "IDENTIFIED"?
