ID.me - quick and easy
September 3, 2024

Easy process. Convenient. Wait time for video verification was about 1 minute. The person on the other side was quick and efficient. Once the verification was complete, I was able to then forward to a government agency to obtain some personal information.

Understand the reason for it
September 3, 2024

There was a previous question asking do you trust id.me I don't know trust has to be earned not given I don't know how you're going to be using that information in a positive or negative way. Cuz a lot of people like myself have a distrust of the government. Yes I think it should be used on all government websites to weed out the people that are potentially illegal aliens and or wanted by other federal agencies.

Complete garbage
September 3, 2024

Every single time you visit / login to a site requiring ID.me, you're redirected to ID.me, because these individuals cannot handle /set browsing data properly. It's like clickbait, but worse!

Quick and safe
September 3, 2024

I really enjoyed the reliability and quickness of logging in. There were no password issues. I didn't get the red "can't proceed" warning like many other logins. I really like the quickness and security ID me offers. Well done!

ID.me made it so easy to upload selfies
September 3, 2024

ID.me was very clever that it could interface with my iPhone while I was using my desktop computer. This made uploading my ID and selfie so easy- actually, it was fun! Kudos to the developer/designer that created this functionality.

Security without complexity
September 3, 2024

Very pleased with the level of security. Multiple steps to take but all are relatively easy. I like that ID.me is used across multiple agencies so I don't have to create so many passwords.
