My ID Me
November 12, 2024

On Nov 1st, 2024 I logged in to the VA, and later in the day something changed and I could not log on. So I woke up early the next day to make a difference in my life to help myself. So I found two numbers and I started calling and I was surprised that someone was there to answer my questions

I uploaded my sensitive documents from a previous request. Months later I had another agency request authentication and my documents simply were converted over and used for the next request.

Eventually got what was needed
November 12, 2024

Round and round and round. Their website needs alot of clarification as to what we need to provide, an entire afternoon spent messing around with documentation etc. which was totally unnecessary. I'm glad they're paid because I'm not! The web agent was professional but not friendly at all. Perhaps we in the UK are used to agents who might crack a smile or say something personal which is really relaxing for the individual on the video call.

ID.Me and IRS are hijacking your right to pay your full amount due and requiring installment plan of multiple payments. Now they want a face recognition video. Total nonsense.

Clumsy, repetitive, misleading
November 12, 2024

I've already wasted enough time answering the comment survey and fight through the signon process. I have other things to do than play computer roulette.

I live in an assisted living facility due to age, hearing and vision disabilities, and multiple medical issues. I am technologically challenged as a result.

Despite these issues and having an account, I was required to go through a video call since I changed addresses and phone numbers with my move into the assisted living facility.

ID.me was unwavering, even when offered more identify verification that they requested.

I was forced to send several weeks unsuccessfully navigating this process. Finally, my daughter was able to travel in from a great distance to assist me with the video call.

Please try to be kind and more ADA compliant in the future. I am surprised the Social Security Administration allowed this to happen in order to access their online system.
