El personal es muy amable y educado,explican todo a detalle y son muy agradables
I'm very satisfied with ID me service and safety requirements
Many of the questions were not easy to figure out what the system wanted. Abbreviations are not always easy to figure out what they mean. Several times I thought I figured it out only to be told I needed some number. I finally went through and answered no to everything and it let me go to the next page. I'm still not sure I answered everything right. This being a government form what will they do if I answered something wrong by mistake?
Muy buena experiencia, para la seguridad de las personas, esperemos que ha las demás personas les agrade también.
Fue algo rápido sencillo y muy fácil de usar para hacer update de mi información y el agente que me atendió ella fue muy amable
For mi frustrating I can't go all the way because it said is in maintenance try later
Got the EDD representative instruction to complete the ID.me register successfully
It took me a long time to finalize my registration and verification with ID.ME. It seems early on in the application process there was an option to select, "I do not have a US address" and/or "I do not have a US phone." I did not see those options and later on in the process I was caught in a very frustrating situation where I could not continue to verify my application with documents I did not have.
It would be important for applicants from overseas to work slowly through the application process and look carefully for the options confirming you do not live in the US and you do not have a US phone!
It took days upon days trying to verify my identity. The live detection kept saying "an error occurred"
My experience was a positive one. The website guided you to the proper areas you need to go. I am not that literate on the computer so this helped a lot.
I loved it and it was easy I thought it would be hard and put me threw a lot but it was easy
Very efficient and easy to navigate the website for information.
Tuve una buena espericia me gusta la tensión que me brindaron gracias.
