My experience with id.me has always been wonderful! The system is easy to use and I have the highest confidence my information is secure in the hands of id.me
It was a fast consultation, professional, and outstanding customer service experience.
The lady that processed my video call was very polite and process was very quick and simple. Honestly if I would've known the process was so easy to just to do the video call instead of self service which is supposedly faster I might have done this a lot sooner
Приобрёл опыт,благодарю сердечно благослови вас Господь! Если вы плохо знаете английский попросите в помощь друга или родственника с английским языком.
The application is user-friendly and allows for easy identification through simple steps.
First thought:
I felt like this site, where I was directed by KY Unemployment was a scam web link. But how could that be? Then the request for a copy of the front and back of my driver license was not enough. They then required a live video cam of a facial features shot. Sorry folks, this is exactly what a scam web web site requests. I was Extremely uncomfortable with all this just to update my address!
It was easy, quick, secure and professional. The video call agent was so helpful and clear. It took less than 20 minutes to finish the process. I recommend it for people to use.
Excellent I feel berry good and satisfied an happy about the experience
