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.

Additionally, delays and technical difficulties, including issues with document acceptance and login credentials, have led to dissatisfaction among several users. Overall, while the service is valued for its security, improvements in user experience and support are essential.

Military spouse's experience with ID.me
February 24, 2025

Filling out the application for ID.me was quick, easy and quite painless. I was able to get a 10% discount on OrthoFeet as a military spouse. Just another perk of being a camp folllower for 30 years!

A pain and hassle to use
February 24, 2025

I would NOT recommend using this site, I provided multiple ids multiple times and would not id me. I've use tax sofware programs and they make easy to id yourself. Not here be ready to battle. Would never use again.

Although it can be repetitive when changing agency from the lists provided after login in, it is worth the security it provides

Horrible
February 24, 2025

I've heard the horror stories about the process, and it was truly that bad. I was so angry about the whole mess, probably an hour and half wasted going in loops until finally it got finished with the live video. First it said I already had an account with my email, which I had never done, so it must have been partially set up with some other process at some time. I didn't have any password and the password reset is useless because I'm supposed have a password generator or something like that, I have no idea what that is. I'm also supposed to have a special code, which I did not have because I had never set up an account. At some point I managed to make some progress logging in with just my Google account, though I have no idea how. Then they wouldn't accept my phone number I've had for over 10 years, but the number assigned to my cell phone that I never use is okay, so hopefully I never lose that. Then they wouldn't accept the photos I uploaded. The phone kept saying to go back to the other window I had opened. THERE WAS NO OTHER WINDOW OPEN! There was nothing to go back to, so it was a dead end at that point. Then somehow got somewhere on back on my computer. It kept sending me codes over and over and over! What an absolute joke. How much dirty business was done to get the contract to lock everyone out of their IRS account unless they use your ridiculous service? I hate ID Me, and I can see why everyone else does too.

Total incompetent government site
February 24, 2025

It took 2 hours to get the correct pictures to be accepted. 3 hours later the specific service was temporarily unavailable. Typical incompetent government experience. Absolutely disgusting!

ID verification
February 24, 2025

I would encourage any user to upload their passport, in my opinion it was easer than uploading picture ID (drivers license)

Expired license

I was able to have my identification verified with the assistance of a really nice gentleman via a video call. He was very professional and the process only took a few moments.
