Required Documents
May 7, 2024

I use a PC for all my work. I only use my cell phone for audio calls, text, and data. I find it unnecessary to photo, store, and upload the required documents since the agent requests to see them on the video call. The agent can store the documents as he views them.

My experience was incredibly warm and welcoming. I've felt comfortable both utilizing the virtual aspect as well as speaking on the phone with a individual. I also felt my information was safe and encrypted. I give two thumbs up for ID me.

ID.me is awful
May 7, 2024

If you run into the slightest problem you go through a maze of text help screens but no one to talk to. The help doesn't help and then what do you do? There's no one to talk to. It is the most frustrating experience I've ever had. It's 2 weeks and I still can't verify.

I really liked the way this system is used so that you can access your information at anytime without talking to a person and having to call during business hours. Super safe and secure to do at my own home right on my iPhone and computer!

Can't complete a verification process because it will take 45 days for IdMe to respond to a help ticket just to update an email address! Unfortunately, the job requiring verification would have already Started! Screw the people, IdMe is doing all they can.
