Be patient
November 29, 2023

There is no one in theLafayette office that can walk you through this-I was told they are no allowed to. I got help from an office in Crowley. I was signed up the old way. I was now in the system…until I tried to enter work searches. I had to do the ID me stuff. The selfie was a pain.

Honest Review
November 21, 2023

It is so easy to fall victim to online identity and information theft, I was very pleased to see new steps taken to aide in prevention of this potential threat. Verifying with ID.me was a fast and simple process to ensure safe and secure online access. The measures taken made me feel that my private information is top priority. Some of the top features included uploading photos of my ID, a brief video of my face in real time to compare with the ID photo, text and email codes, and review of current information. I feel much more protected having these added steps in place.

My experience
November 21, 2023

Well it wasn't easy. I was trying to use Idme for a military discount on my
Verizon phone service.
1st I tried on my own
2nd I asked Verizon tech for help we were not successful. She suggested I go to a Verizon store.
3rd. The Verizon rep finally got it after 45 minutes of trying.
I'm not sure who is at fault here but it was not an easy process.
