Make it so that no one else besides that person verifying has questions to answer to make sure it's the right person.

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.

Easy, fast, secure
July 26, 2023

My experience using id.me was decent. I had a hard time verifying my identity, however I eventually was able to figure it out on my own. Id.me is a very easy site to use other then above issue. It's secure and they provide fast background check services.

Experian Credit Agency
June 26, 2023

After going through ID me to work with a State agency, I was unable to complete the same process (not ID me process) with Experian. Unfortunately, I will have to go through a mail in verification process with them to resolve my issue. It would have been nice to refer them to, or use ID me to resolve the verification process just so I could look at my credit report.

Confusing
July 26, 2023

Not a novice with online security procedures. The IRS and i-now use this to "safeguard" our tax account information. It isn't evident, not transparent, involved. I am trying to sign back in, and it's asking about blue tooth/USB ports. None of those were used in the setup of the account.
