I am confident that scammers will have a difficult time trying to access my account.
I can't tell you how smooth and fast my experience this time with ID.me was. I went from being someone who hated this and now can gladly and joyfully say my experience this time was like watching a sunrise and set. To login to govt approved programs to my ssi was smoothed. Great job. Thank you for your service.
Much easier than what I expected. The process was straightforward and the staff member assisting with the video call was professional and efficient.
ID.me makes an effort to allow access to US government services by securely identifying US citizens online. It took me 2 days to figure it out, but when I finally did so, it worked well. The interviewing agent was professional, courteous, and competent.
Un excelente trato y entendimiento, muy agradable experiencia
Bad experience on updates on verification process.
This is horrific! The US government is now forcing you to use biometrics just to file your taxes! This should be outlawed and banned forever. The entire experience feels like you're being violated. This should be stopped immediately.
I had a terrible time doing the online survey to get my identity verified it took me two hours before it made me do the online chat identity verification It's a timely wait but it's totally worth it the person I talked to was understanding and efficient she was a great first time for me getting My identity verified...I am very satisfied with this type of identification check
For some reason taking pictures of my driver's license and S.S card wasn't working or I was doing something wrong. Clicked on to the video help part and he fixed the issues within minutes
