Putting a lot of information you guys needed and not being able to even attempt to try to get my money back it was a waste of time. I'll never get back the time I spent on trying to provide you with all the information that you all needed.if you're gonna ask for all of that, you should be able to hook up to somebody that could help me.not artificial intelligent, not a recording people real people you should be able to do that

Simple and Secure
May 30, 2024

I setup ID.me years ago. I have used it for a few systems that take it. I found it easy to setup and after it is done it makes accessing things like VA and Social Security data fast and simple. I can't wait for it to expand to other agencies!

I went through the tedious process of setting up the account including a video call during which the agent took screen shots of the ID documents I already uploaded online, then I was able to login into the IRS once. But the next day, my account was suspended for no reason. It's been 3 days and the ID.me customer support has not responded. This is a terrible service.

Secure is good
May 24, 2024

Providing personal information for agencies support is risky for all especially in this new age of AI and hackers. Seniors are true targets. We must have our personal information protected as service is rendered. Not too many steps that's the way.

Timely and Professional, Overdue I feel this update is needed at least once a year in everyone's life. Identity theft is a serious and controllable way for the people to make the helpful decisions to safeguard their own lives. They are practicing and making better management decisions.
