It was easy, fast and secure. It walks you through exactly what to do in an easy to follow manner
It was much easier then from two years ago it was easy and fast
Thank you
I think it was good easy to work with I am stuck don't understand now?
Had to bounce between phone and laptop to get this done. The credit verification step had an old landline that a text message with code was sent to which was impossible to get. Was stuck in an endless loop in ID.me. Had to figure out to restart and relogin and find some item to reverify the account and go through the connect with a video agent. This then took another 20 minutes. All this nonsense to get a refund.

Very hard for me because I am elderly. My Son had to do all the computer and phone work. I will be 90 years old in October and can only use my computer for email and ordering groceries so my Son had to do all the phone work on his phone number and all the computer work.
Hello Ellora. We’re glad you were able to complete your verification successfully. Thank you for taking the time to leave ideas on how we can make it even better. We’re grateful for your ideas to improve, and I’ll pass yours along to our team. —T, ID.me
Good and fast was very easy now I'm waiting for my ip number and hopefully that goes quick also
It has been a simple process
Everything has been easy
ID ME was a very quick straightforward process. It probably took less than 2 minutes.
Thank you ID ME being so user friendly!
It was incredibly fast and simple. The Federal government totally accepts their verification process as an option to gain access to your online Social Security Acct. I hadn't logged in since 2017. Because I lost and forgot the credentials to my acct. Please if you get fed up with apps that just can't accept your id pics ect, try these guys out. Much easier I promise.
All in all I think the systems could have been done a lot better but the service was nice it was just that I could not hear when I got past to the second person to control the switch from my email and number being transferred over but other than that everything else was good I ready you guys four stars
I have used id.me on numerous occasions and I always feel secure using it. It is easy to use and takes no time at all. I wouldn't mind verifying with them for all my apps.
Great experience good work with them learning a lot

Awesome, easy and understandable! I did the the id.me before going to bed and it was so simple. I was wondering how it would work but it was so thorough and no worries.
Went through the whole process to get an error number with no explanation and was able to log on through several attempts.
