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. However, significant concerns were raised regarding the complexity of the verification process, which some customers found frustrating and time-consuming, particularly older users or those with unique identification issues. 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.

I entered all the information perfectly, which took about 10 minutes. In the final minute, it asked for my phone number, and I entered it correctly, yet it dead-ended my entire sign-up process saying the phone number does not match records. Um, false. My only recourse was to start all over and do the live agent method, which takes twice as long. Oh well, I thought at least I'm finished. Nope. After that, I went to the Virginia Employment Commision website to log in using my new ID.me credentials, and it would not log me in, saying the SS# that ID.me auto filled (which I could not see because it shows as all dots) does not seem to match my identity. Since that SS# field is auto filled, you can't even click on it. Checkmate. Tomorrow morning I'm going to have to waste an hour or 2 trying to get tech support from a human to fix this mess. ID.me already attempted to let their bot respond to my help ticket, and you can imagine how well that went.

Second time around is not the charm
November 28, 2024

When I first used this service, it worked seamlessly. The second time through, it failed miserably. The server was either too slow or non-responsive. And there is no way to contact a real person by phone or chat. All you can do is file a trouble ticket and sulk. They need to dedicate more resources on web servers and real people to support customers from all over the country.

Had to use it for a government agency and while I felt uncomfortable because it required key documents with personal information after checking, reviewing and trying to find how scam-able it might be, it seemed authentic and ultimately was impressed at how thorough, and security oriented it turned out to be. Just be ready, if you were glasses to take them off and possible encounter frustration going through, be patient. Once through access was instantaneous and that was great.

I hate that we live in an age where things like ID.me is the new norm. I find it disgusting. No offense to any of their employees, but if I had my way, I would never use ID.me again.

Confidence in Securing my Data
November 28, 2024

I wasn't sure what to expect but after going through the process and then the video call, I know all my private information is secure. With ID.me I was able to log into my Social Security & IRS information with ease. I highly recommend this website and their process.
