Just about a 15 minute wait to speak with a live agent, after that smooth sailing.
It's a bad deal...they put all your information out on the web.
My experience with ID.me has always been a positive experience. Making sure no one can steal my identity is of paramount importance these days because identity theft is on the rise. The few extra steps that one has to take to verify their identity with ID.me is nothing compared to what one could be dealing with after an identity theft crisis.
It wasnt so bad took a little time but it was worth doing everything they asked for as it's for my protection felt it was safe and comfortable and that they covered everything to make sure I am who I say I am
Fast, simple, easy and no hassles. It is a great way for those of us who have served our country and our family members to have a safe system in place, secure system to help us get something a little extra in these tough times.
Feel safe and secure using this website at the moment I can't suggest to improve anything.
The process is quick and simple. Verification...few seconds. It just takes a few mins to complete.
Extra security measures using live virtual video/camera face recognition and not relying on just a photo for identification makes me feel safe in accessing important personal information via the internet.
Dealing with anything related to the state of NJ is always a nightmare. This, however, was a pleasant surprise. Seems like finally some swamp creature down in Trenton decided to try a legit corporate vendor instead of hooking up their cousin who 'builds great websites'
I did not find any difficulty in creating my account
ID.me was very easy to understand and made utilizing each step very simple. The whole process took just minutes to complete.
