I have a new phone number and tried to access the account. I forgot the password and can't recover. I wasted too much time on this service already.
ID.me service is very poor. It is poor like homeless people have no food to eat.

Daftne went above and beyond to ensure that my issue was resolved quickly and efficiently. I truly appreciate her dedication and the excellent service she provided. ID.me is lucky to have such a fantastic team member!
My first 3 attempts to upload my driving license photo ID as jpeg images directly from my cell phone were rejected.
I later scanned the front and back of my ID separately, then saved each scan as jpeg images.
The upload was successful at the first attempt.
The experience of this was amazing and professional
I did complete the process with my phone, but I do not like to provide sensitive, personal information using my phone. I would much prefer completing processes that require my personal identification data using my desktop. The process to do so was not clearly outlined.
Exasperating since this makes me feel quite confused and out of sorts.
