Bad
May 7, 2024

I did not speak to anyone about my tax problem. I don't know what I was doing. I saw one person and I did not know what I was supposed to do next. I needed to discuss my tax issues. I received a refund and paid taxes. I'm truly needs to speak to a tax representative to correct my tax problem. My taxes were mailed and transmitted. The mailed tax papers were sent with a check and the tax transmission papers gave me a refund. Please someone help me. I need help with account management. Do I still pay the balance owed from the mailed transmission?

My overall experience with I.D. Me was simple and fast. There was some lag time noticable when doing video recording but that may have been my tablet.

Difficult, but I am willing to keep at it until I can do it myself as I did several years ago when I was much younger.

Can I give zero?
May 7, 2024

Extremely frustrated with the whole ordeal.
Had to resort to video call, and no one ever connected or communicated with me at all
Got notification stating I was verified, government website said info from ID.me does not match my information.

I deal with anxiety on a daily basis and it doesn't make things easy for me to do even the simplest task and the agent I had didn't make me feel uncomfortable and was really nice and friendly and that made it a great experience for me

Terrible app.
May 7, 2024

Failed to work on 2 separate types of devices, 2 operating systems and 3 different browsers. I finally found a combination where it would work and hope I never to deal with this company again. This is clearly pre-alpha grade garbage that needed far more testing. I'm slightly pissed they are getting tax dollars for this.

Good but really hard to verify who you are even after you give all the information. But it is a good thing to have?
