Bad experience
December 14, 2023

After using EFTPS for many years, now we must go thru id.me or login.gov. I chose id.me. I found the instructions very difficult to navigate between cellphone taking pics of my drivers license, and then going to my desktop. But after finally figuring out everything, I attempted to make a payment via EFTPS. When I got to point of entering the Internet password that I have used for years, it kicked my out. No reason given, or ability to get back in. Needless to say, I am not happy.

I'm a Disabled American. I need to speak with people. Not some kind of computer system just goes around in circles. This is not only very inconvenient. It is torture being disabled on top of that. Put it up with a system that doesn't have any human connection

Time for Profanity
December 7, 2023

When my access info was rejected many forbidden words came forth. Nevertheless I pressed on and soon the process of proving my identity, mysterious and frightening,did what it said it would when I did as I was told. That my phone could provide data required, including a scan of my face, was both horrifying and amusing. Even more it was successful even while it seemed filled with chances of error and confusion. Conclusions: I was lucky to get through, no brains on my side; sad that such precautions are needed in these times.

Secure, but a pain
December 14, 2023

I hope you never have to use this to go to the IRS site! Wow! Having to get a code every time I sign in to something with ID.me is a pain, but what can I say? These people don't kid around when it comes to security.
