ID.me Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation, with notable strengths in its identity verification service, which many users found secure and efficient, particularly praising the helpfulness of customer service during video calls. However, significant concerns were raised regarding the complexity of the verification process, which some customers found frustrating and time-consuming, particularly older users or those with unique identification issues. Additionally, delays and technical difficulties, including issues with document acceptance and login credentials, have led to dissatisfaction among several users. Overall, while the service is valued for its security, improvements in user experience and support are essential.

After 2 hours of NOT being able to prove who I AM I ask Google for help this app was at the top of the list. I was so angry about my own situation I did not realize how simple this app is and it must be a safe app because it works with the government website

Needs a bit of tweaking
August 17, 2023

Everything went well until time for taking and uploading the identification photo. The directions were not clear. Using the video chat with the agent took more time; however, it was worth the wait.

I got pushed into doing the video call.by that point they already had my social security number.a copy of my state ID...I was going to tell the girl on the video call but it was already too late they already had my idenity,I never even heard of id.me they put me on the link,but a day or 2 before that they did the ID me for me without the phone call.then I broke my phone and had to get a new number then he said we have to start over this time by video call,b/c I started asking questions I wish I would have told the representative but it was too late to stop so I figured I would just follow along b/c I have the whole conversation,on my telegram,all the directions and screen shots,I asked him who is donating this money?He said the owner of QUANTUM FINANCIAL SERVICES...even if they do donate some.only they have all my information so I didn't let them know that I was going to report all this today.i wanted to get as much evidence on my telegram as possiable,they're probably stealing thousands of people's ID like this,however their telegram page is still going,somehow not just for me but all the other people too,that maybe being scammed someone needs to investigate them.

Easy,Fast and Secure.
July 17, 2023

The site looked complicated and that it would take a long time to sign up on. Once I started (I hit the NEXT button) the process was fun and easy and just took a few minutes. My sign on with ID.me allows me onto two sights where before I had different usernames and passwords for each account. I like ID.me a lot!
