Useless Virtual assistant.
March 25, 2025

Tried to correct a bad physical address. Because it wasn't my present address the assistant refused to understand a human could have lived at more than 1 location in their lifetime and just kept telling me to go change my profile ( present address). Still trying to get ahold of a human.

My desktop computer is 10 years old and I just haven't gotten to a place to trade it in for a new one. I had already set up an account because I was or am having issues with being able to research my training papers and the like. After 3 times of being like a nurse giving a flu shot, I kept trying to get into the system and each time it gave me an ERROR 90, that had something to do with a 3rd processor or initialization from one site to another. I'm just not sure anymore could be done, but I did try calling their help number, but of course they were closed. I will just have to wait until the week starts up.

It's a you don't have a choice no way around not using the website. So why anyone cares about reviews is beyond me. You can NOT log into the IRS without using ID Me it's just another government roadblock like making everyone stay home during covid.

I have been hacked and scammed too many times and I am sick and tired of it. I believe the ID.me will help knock that fraudulent activity to slow way down now that I have verified my identity.

The system was very user friendly and secure, when it came to inputting my personal information into the appropriate fields. I was able to upload the required documents in order to show proof of my identity. Not to mention, the system made it manageable to speak directly to a ID.me agent via web camera for personal protection.

As a veteran with over 30 years of service, I am deeply disappointed and frustrated with the ID.me verification process. The system's inability to accept VOIP or prepaid phone numbers, which are my only means of communication, created a significant and unnecessary obstacle. This forced me to travel to a service center to complete the verification, causing considerable inconvenience. The fact that a system designed to verify the identity of those who have served our country fails to accommodate widely used communication methods is unacceptable. This experience has been incredibly frustrating and nearly led me to opt out of online services altogether. I was even prepared to contact my Congressman for assistance. ID.me needs to address these issues and improve their verification process to ensure that veterans and others who rely on VOIP or prepaid phones are not unfairly burdened. This experience has severely undermined my trust in ID.me and I would strongly advise others to be prepared for potential difficulties during the verification process."

A living hell!
March 25, 2025

I have already completed a lengthy ID.me survey. Increases time and effort needed to access the sites that I need to access. Yet allows another entity to access and track my data and activities. Increases privacy risks to my info and activities and compromises the security and access to my identity.
