Easy and worth your effort
October 12, 2023

The steps to get my own identity PIN were easy and just needed an few minutes. Some of the process was on my laptop, some on my cell phone (the camera part). Now I feel protected from having to prove that I'm "me" and I worry less about identity theft

My experience with id.me
October 12, 2023

After almost 3 months of trying to get through to a live person to talk to and get my account reinstated, I finally got through and the agent that I worked with was very friendly, helpful and stayed on the line with me while I went through the process of re-verifying my account and helped me with every step so that it was easy and quick.

I rate idME software unsatisfactory
November 11, 2023

IdME agents were all excellent and helpful.
However, idME software was not good.
At first, I tried to use the automated verification, but kept getting the message: "An unknown error has occurred - try again".
When I tried again I got the same message.
So I tried "chat with an agent", the video worked and they could hear me but I could not hear them.
So the idME agent called me on my phone and we completed the verification.
IdME software does not work correctly and displays unhelpful messages.
IdME software needs serious improvement - it is not user friendly.
If you encounter similar problems, use ZOOM instead if you can.
I wasted a lot of time trying to get the idME software to work correctly.

So secure and safe
October 12, 2023

Applying for Unemployment, I needed ID to verify me. Issue with me...up to 30 changes in my life.
So, go to site, that was nice, able to edit.
My document pictures next issue. Me a horrible picture taker, I shake to much.
Ended up video call, where I had my documents viewed.
After that, site I needed ID for, accepted I got to move forward

You are not allowed to keep drivers license and social security number and a 3D selfie for identification. Requires prior consent; cannot tell people that they have to login to delete storage?!
