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.

Somewhat problematic
November 29, 2025

I had an ID.me account and then it was gone and I had to reverify my identity. Uploading the pics was not fun. The software kept rejecting the photos without telling me why. The video selfie was the same. Once it accepted the photos and video, the process was a breeze.

Finally I submitted my application.
November 29, 2025

In 1976, I honorably retired from the military, receiving medal and award. Unable to find my DD214 form, I applied for a copy. The process of creating an account and submitting the application was extremely difficult and complicated for me. Fortunately, my wife helped me.

Worst tax experience ever!
November 29, 2025

I would have given no stars, but it wouldn't let me. I've received over fifty refunds and never had to wait seven months (and counting) to get my refund.

ID me is a blatant grab of information red their terms of service and look at the cookies that track you. There couldn't be a more blatant tracking and information grab as far as I'm concerned. In order to apply for financial aid ID me was jammed down my throat.
I don't trust this company nor should you again red their terms of service and what they're gonna do with your photographs and the video they take of your face. It is likely that I will spend a lot of time trying to get my information removed from ID.me

Fast, Easy service,
November 28, 2025

The ID.me service is fast and efficient. The only downside side in my experience was that the automatic photo snap without warning and no options to review or try again was frustrating!

Don't forget to keep your info updated.
November 28, 2025

I was having to basically start over as I had an account but had not changed my phone number. I had to verify who I was before I could get in and change the number so it could sent codes where I could get them. I had a little problem but nothing major.

Frustrated
November 28, 2025

I had tried another option but I seemed to go in circles. This seemed to be the same until I was able to do a short video call and it was very easy to get verified

Fantastically easy & quick!
November 28, 2025

Struggled with the SS site for 3 months with no assistance or direction after already using for 6 years. Making changes due to new phone number & email was a nightmare. Not with ID.me done in under half an hour, what a relief

Finally useful information!
November 28, 2025

Have been seeking answers to questions of health benefits and in-home help from several areas without any acceptable results. Finally getting an appointment for evaluation and results for improving health and every day activities. Looking forward to being able to live each day with more strength, stamina and purpose. Waiting for doctor visit.

ID.me saves my bacon!
November 28, 2025

Had an acct several years, all good. Got me in where I needed to be.
Then a new phone 18 mo ago. At change-over, several security sites got messed up somehow?
I tried but got frustrated, aggrivated, just forgot about no access with ID.me and went on.
Lately several govt sites increased security and access, so coast time was about up.
I called ID.me, asked for help to a fix. The Kady was real nice, very good, got me established in short order. Now have all needed access back and intact!
They'll benefit you too, for sure

Poor service
November 28, 2025

Spent hours trying to find help other than the stupid AI helper they have. You might search forever trying to find a number or email to get in touch with someone to help. I spent about half a day trying to find someone to help with my issue. It was only after I emailed "Pissed Customer" did someone from ID.me contact me by email, he was able to fix the issue in just a short time..

I am always skeptical of providing personal information online. However, I eventually felt more comfortable with the process as I maneuver through.
