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.

Overall, while the service is valued for its security, improvements in user experience and support are essential.

After completion, nothing
May 10, 2024

I went through the lengthy process and finished it… but was then told that there was a problem. I could never get it done, not id.me or by phone (not enough agents). I suspect that the IRS wants to keep my refund!

Initial sign up took 2 hours with breaks. Almost gave up. Kept getting rejected for self photo…. Follow great instructions on screen. But "Something went wrong, come back later". 3 or 4 attempts. Plus, when you leave the site to come back later, it's difficult to know if you need to start all over again, or pick up where you left off. Note: Problem with the speed of my email. By the time I received my 6 digit "secret code". (30 mins). The time ran out and I needed to start over. By the 3rd attempt I changed to another email account with faster response of 6 digit "secret code"..

Bad experience
May 10, 2024

Too many steps to go through. Wouldn't recognize my smartphone number. Two phones and a computer to set up an account? Really! After I got the account set up, the information I wanted wasn't available!

Fabulous.
May 10, 2024

I was absolutely astonished with the service that I received, from the video verification. It was such a pleasant process, and the whole thing was just a delightful experience. I completely forgot what I was doing, because,it just seemed as if we were friends having a chat.

Great way to verify
May 10, 2024

This process was easy to follow and very personable getting a real person to inspect your ID, rather than a bot.
