Experience using ID ME
April 15, 2025

ID ME is a secure and easy to set up program which allows you to have a firewall protecting the access process for your data when you have a need to visit various state and federal agency's websites. We use it with ease in accessing information, forms, etc and when the need arises to view our own data at various state and federal agencies. We heartily recommend getting set up with it for your own needs!

Video call
April 15, 2025

Excellent Custer service on video call! Solved my problem with setting up an account about 10 mints that I had work on for several stressful hours. I can highly recommend ID. ME to people that ask me what service I use. They took the extra steps to setting up an account that other services didn't. Talking to an agent on video call made all the difference in the world. She was wonderful!

I was having the most difficult time trying to get into my SSA online account. It seemed to have various problems with my identification - The process would start and get stuck at various places and each new attempts to keep at it seemed to create a new problem, do not recognize the phone number try another number- but I only have the one- and had it for years, pictures. Sent in of back front of my drivers license, do not recognize. My personal information- Ithete is no record in our system- and thes types of responses just kept going- I was at this for two weeks, on my phone, laptop, computer, and on the phone with the automated response from login. Gov- all of which never fixed the issue and the information and steps did nothing to resolve the problems either- I called the SSA, waitinlng for hourss to get through - they just referred me back to login. Gov and then both login. Gov and the on the phone - ssa persons just kept sending me back between the two. No one knew what to do- but login. Gov did acknowledge that there is a problem with the current system and told me that it is because of the change to in person verification rather than over the phone. THIS HORRIBLE 2 weeks experience of which I was just about to completely give up on altogether, came to a most beautiful end finally, when I used. ID. MeπŸ˜‚πŸ™πŸΎπŸŒΉπŸ₯°πŸŽπŸŽ‰πŸ––πŸ‘ŒπŸŽŠ ID. Me came and saved the day- it was such a relief and a blessing- it is one of the best programs and better that any help one will get from Login. Gov, good luck when trying to reach a live person, and /or the SSA - I called and I went my local office- the staff have no idea how to get us up and running using login. Gov- just gives us the phone number to login. Gov- if only they had told me to use ID. Me or just given me the I D. Me number- I would not have these bags under my eyes- from trying for so long- but it is over now because ID me - came and rescued me- it was like Christmas πŸŽ„- so give I D. Me a try- and you will just love the video where you can see your wonder helper agent too.

Good if you want to do it yourself
April 15, 2025

It's good, just your basic signup verification to handle some state things online. Few steps but took less than 30 minutes overall. I've waited on calls 2x longer than this sign-up.

Security at its best
April 15, 2025

At first starting out with the process, it's a little aggravating but once you get your info put in and it's all correct, then it's super simple. You can log in to whatever it maybe your doing with ease. Highly recommended

I would suggest an easier way with the photo. Many seniors (like myself) are not quite as savvy as others. When I went to sign in after many months of not needing to use Id. Me, It appeared like I had to start over. I was dreading it. Fortunately, I managed to get back in without the worry of How To. Thank you

So quick and simple
April 15, 2025

I needed to get replacement cards from Social Security and Medicare. I had not been able to access my account on the social security website in the past. When I had to verify my identity thru ID. Me I was skeptical. It was so quick, I was done in under five minutes. From locating my info to actually being on the social security website was under five minutes. Setting up my account was very fast, then when I had to go back the second time, my account was already set up, it was under two minutes. I have not used a more user friendly verification service ever. I'm not sure if other users have this type of experience but I can say I am impressed by the ease of use, easy to understand instructions and overall quickness with which I was able to log in.

Frustrated
April 15, 2025

I logged in through ID. Me and that completed with no problem until it switched me back to Social Security and I got an error message that said something had occurred and cut me off from going any further. I closed my browser and tried several times but got the same results every time. I'm trying to get my SS amount for 2024 for my tax return.

Hackers beware!
April 15, 2025

Someone hacked me and tried to file my taxes before l did! Luckily the IRS caught on, let me know and pointed me in the direction of ID. Me. With their user friendly website this 63 year old was able to verify my identity, file my real tax form and no one can scare me like that again-ever. I will receive the IPPI number for the next few years. What a gift.
