How many devices do I need to own to prove I'm me? My mother would NEVER be able to navigate this atrocity.
Wonderful magnificent, very understanding and wonderful experience
Very clear instructions. Easy to do. Relatively quick process.
It was extremely difficult for a few reasons. One, my phone is old and the front-facing camera is broken. I still managed to make it work. Two, I suffer from essential tremors, you have no idea how long it took me to take a clear picture of my driver's license. Lastly, when I tried to apply for benefits and entered the ID.me code, nothing happened. I can't apply for benefits because this didn't work, and the state's phone number doesn't work.
Overall a great experience. ID.me took a process that is usually long and turned into a secure down to business process. The customer service is great. The wait time is virtually none. Thanks guys!
The possess of get my identity confirm lasted 2.5 hours most of that time was waiting. I had to input my information 2times. Very difficult for me to navigate. I hope we never have to go through this again.
Muy buena excelente buena atención a cliente y rápida solución
It's easy to use, and you save money on the everyday stuff
Just needed to fill out a burn pit registry. Way more difficult than I expected. Once you have everything locked in, it will go faster for logging in. I understand the security. I get it. Just overly annoying.
The worst part about all of this is that I couldn't even fill out the registry questionnaire ON LINE because of some B.S.! VERIFICATION, which is what I already did.
Anyway, just use this ID Me as it does cover way more for verification overall. Hopefully you will find it easier than I did..
