Fast, Friendly, Finished
November 12, 2023

I don't think the entire process took longer then 5 mins to verify my documents and I was done. The agent doing the verifying was beyond polite and very friendly. I felt at complete ease and completely comfortable where I would normally feel awkward and out of place. The verifier was prompt, to the point and made a connection with me that was almost unsettling except for the fact that it wasn't. :}

Simple to use and understand
November 12, 2023

I feel the entire process was streamlined and therefore easy to understand. It was simple to follow the prompts. There was nothing complicated about it.

Other than that, it was a pleasurable change from the incredibly complicated procedures most online sites use.

I would gladly recommend the use of this site for future transactions.

I really liked it, it was self explaining even for a 76 year old. I like the facial being added except it needs some fine tuning it was not easy to line up, I suggested a bit more time until exposure.

Verify Veteran Status
November 11, 2023

I was sent to IDme to get a Veteran discount for a cruise I was planning for. I enrolled successfully. The process is very easy and straightforward. After I was verified by IDme, the info was forwarded to the cruise line and they responded with my 10% Veteran discount. Once verified ID me showed a large list of available discounts I never knew were available. Very happy with the experience.
