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.

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

Worth the effort.
January 22, 2024

It took me awhile to get all my ducks in a row, that's on me. Once I did, the process was good. The wait for the video call was a little stressful as my need was time sensitive. However, the video call was quick and painless, due to the agent's ability (Lucy or Luz - I am having a mental block for her name.)

ID.ME makes life Easier
January 18, 2024

When you're trying to identify yourself to an official agency sometimes it is very very frustrating no matter how many documents you send in no matter what verification you can tell them over the phone they still will give you a difficult time with id.me it's a matter of just a few clicks and it's done without having to reveal very sensitive private information

Confusing user interface
January 23, 2024

Either this was constructed with AI or the programming was done by people unfamiliar with how thos is supposed to work. I suspect it was done by a company that farmed out the project to an overseas vendor and failed to properly vet this software.
