Muy buena experiencia y atención personalizada. Excelente trabajo gracias por guiarme paso a paso
The instructions to use ID.me was very easy to follow. Non complicated steps. Each step of the way the explanation was simple and to the point. As when I went to my e-mail to verify it, I was instructed to go back to my other screen. I had no trouble or confusion in what the step was. Very satisfied. It only took a few minutes from start to completion.
I tried to do the selfie picture identity but after 6 times and no luck I tried the video. Perhaps I did selfie being afraid of being ask many questions but wasn't the case. It was fast and easy. Perhaps faster than the selfie.
My experience with the ID.me agent was right on time and helpful.
Got stuck in a loop and couldn't get verified despite taking pictures of id and facial scans. Loop went on for weeks.It didn't matter whether I was on the phone or on pc. Emailed support and they finally sent me an email link to resume process. Opted for video chat with an unfriendly and not helpful agent. Finally, got verified.
My experience with id.me was great! The agent was pleasant, thorough and patient! This verification method was a much appreciated success and a time saver……. Thanks I'd.me!
Excellent service and prompt responses from the team. You get the information whatever you want quickly.
I think of my experience with other types of sites that have said they were secure in some sort of way. Because of the dissection of processing my identification and so on... Using a breakdown of separating of features to make out who it is that they are securing identification for is very refreshing
Was professionally done service was good got help with my account went better than before
Very helpful the interviewer was very clear and her questions very respectful and she really seen concerned about my application thank you
It took repeated attempts and a crap ton of headaches over a 3-4 hour period just to get verified. Only reason I wouldn't give a zero star rating was the agent who assisted me on a video call.
Now today there are many secure ways to identify any individual on the planet that does not involve your SS number. Think creatively.
Interface is user friendly. Agent on duty has very good inter personal and communication skills. She was personable and very helpful.
A little less waiting time, other than perfect and very convenient.
The agent was very helpful, and very cleared on what it was need for me to provide, it just made it so easy and fast to complete the process
I had a very pleasant and assuring experience with them they are very secure and safe and the agent that I video chatted with was very professional
Pleased with workflow for self registering - seamless transition to phone to get ID info and selfie and transfer back to web page when done. Was able to connect up with my preferred MFA app with no problems at all.
Nice when it works well! Thank you!
