My Personal ID.me Account.
September 27, 2023

Overall, I am feeling somewhat satisfied with the experience of using the account. Unfortunately, however, since my account was suspended last week ago. I am trying to get help as soon as possible by figuring out why my account has been suspended and I'm hoping that I could reactivate my account by making it securable once again.

ID.me
August 28, 2023

Because it is all very simple and easy to understand, just follow the instructions and that's it, I followed them that easily in English and Spanish. And they are very good, that is why I rate it that way.

I was forced to sign in to get to my IRS account. I did the usual 2-factor auth bit, then "surprise" I had to allow a scan of my face to continue. This is outrageous and completely unacceptable.

I followed all the steps. Then the text codes came through hours later when I was already off the site. Was not told why I could not be verified so have to wait a couple of weeks to get the paperwork done that I needed done as soon as possible. Just not a good service and would give 0 stars if that was an option.
