I was so glad to create my account within few minutes but it some how difficult if you're not good at using computer
Easy. Quick. ID confirmed in seconds. Used to request 6 digit ID PIN with IRS. Speedy determination.
It was easy and perfect to use and also provide us with security protection
I was a little reluctant about sharing my personal information with the agent as there are so many scams going around however the agent was very professional and patient and articulated what was needed very well he completely put my mind at ease about my doubts using the system.
I really needed to verify my past tax payment info and was able to finally sign in after trying over and over during tax season. Since it took a bunch of attempts then, I put it off. I didn't think it was going to work and I imagined I was going to need to go down to the IRS office and stand in some long line to verify my identity! But luckily, we were able to do it over video chat in combination with uploading documents. It was painless. Fast. And it was late at night, which was the only time I had to do this!
On the website for two hours, problem still, unresolved!
Very satisfying and easy to use. I liked the fact that they asked for my drivers license or some form of ID. Then scanned my face to verify. This made me feel secure about my account.
I got into this while signing into IRS.
This site asked me to take the photos of driver license—front and back.
Loading them was a nightmare because of instructions were hidden somewhere down below, out of frame.
Long wait but worth every penny and effort! The agent was very kind and helpful and courteous
It was easy to make an account and to follow instructions.
My experience with ID me was Amazing experience. The agent was very nice and polite.
Fast, convenient and verified in a timely manner. I always forget my passwords because every site is different.
Very helpful and smooth easy step by step instructions that even I could do
When I first came, I did not know we now had to do everything on line. So, I had to come her to do it because I do not have a computer at home and everything went well.
Really enjoyed how helpful this service is with verifying a persons identity and i recommend more security updates... Thank you. God Bless.
I don't understand why I'm waiting for two or three days to receive an email from ID me to do a video call to do a verification why do I have to wait two or three days for that this is supposed to be a
It seemed like the experience was straight to the point and it was very direct and I hope for good outcomes.
