ID.ME has a smooth operation!
November 7, 2023

I knew I would need to upload some documentation ahead of time, but wasn't sure what docs would be requested. I went through the process quickly page after page. Then the request for a particular document came up. Before responding, I had to locate that doc and it took some time on my end.
I found it, took a photo, emailed the photo to myself, then uploaded it with no problem. No bugs. Quick process. Good smart programming.

Not worth it
November 14, 2023

Every form, ID, paper I submitted was denied. Took me at least an hour to finally get verified, it was a total headache dealing with company, plus they send me an email telling me to sign into my cox account to get my benefit when I did NOTHING!

I have a very bad skin problem! So my driver's license really shows my eyes, nose, and mouth - my face is covered with a very bad skin problem. You see more black than anything - so many people think you are trying to beat the system - but I had a big problem and was not able to explain it to anyone. So, I had to keep taking my picture over and over - they finally accepted it - but I had gone through hell!
