April Hoffman and her team provided a stellar training session on 7.27.23 for the newly mandated grant requirements. The powerpoint was clear and concise and the additional presenters were patient and thorough. Not only did I enjoy the training, I was able to complete the multifactor authentication process directly afterwards within 15 minutes time.

Frustrating experience
August 24, 2023

Failed at every turn. Verification failed because it misread birthday. Failed again because it dropped a letter from my name. Failed multiple times after trying the likeness detection. Supposed to be easy, but wasn't.

If you accidentally or for whatever reason are unable to access your account and setup a second account you will still be blocked from using id.me, this has been my experience.
I couldn't get anyone from id.me to video chat with me to get my account unlocked very unhappy with your service. Nila Byington.

Difficulty engaging audio and camera
August 24, 2023

I did not see anywhere a way to engage the video camera and audio although it was already working on Skype and other programs. Somewhere in various links I finally found a "button" saying "allow video and microphone" and all worked out well after several login attempts where the agent kept saying he couldn't hear me.

Great experience
July 25, 2023

I had a great experience with the ID.me the representative I had was awesome! She did a great job. Very nice. It was an exceedingly pleasant experience conversing with her, as she exuded a great deal of professionalism, warmth, and, most notably, maintained a constant smile throughout our interaction..
