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.

BSO access
November 10, 2023

I had been trying to login into BSO for work related responsibilities for a week and was going in circles with the Login.Gov instructions and could not access help by phone. Once I tried ID.me I followed the instructions and had access within a few minutes and could access the BSO for my work tasks.

Excellent for government sign ons
November 10, 2023

I first started using IDme at va.gov. By far the best sign on out of the total of 4 various authentication methods to get on. This past week I needed to access my social security statement as well as get a tax transcript from irs.gov and was able to pretty quickly authenticate/sign on using id.me.

Lame Service!
November 17, 2023

Lame Service, please don't use. Once you complete the confirmation you aren't led to where you want to go. If you try and go to the IRS website after completing the confirmation you are asked to immediately complete the "security verification" again? WTF? I was having fits because I just needed to find out some very basic information about my IRS account. Felt like I was in an infinite loop of Security Clearance to find out my own information.

"Please"
November 17, 2023

Customer service is good, but they SAY they are trustworthy. That's like me telling a cop, "I'm me, you can believe me" when he asked for my license.
It was not intuitive by any stretch. It came out of the blue, having to sign up for it. I stumbled through it. And it still doesn't work:
"Error
There is a problem with your Login, it may have been disabled due to inactivity. Please contact Pay.gov Customer Service for assistance."

You have to give up name, address, phone number, SS #, permission for them to look at your credit report basic info - name, address, etc. I have no idea if they looked at more of my info.

Great experience!
November 10, 2023

I know tax laws, but online registration - not so much. The agent go led me through the process on a video chat on my phone was cheerful, kind and patient. I have a white beard on my drivers license picture which is no longer there. We joked about how I looked younger now. The process was so easy with his help. Don't be afraid to go to the video chat - saves time and worry.

Can't log in
November 17, 2023

I can't log in and I worked on it for a few hours. Ever time I change my password and hit "sign in" it says incorrect password. Done it at least 15 times.
Is there a phone number I can call into? Or can someone get back to me.
I need to pay payroll taxes.

Easy to use
November 10, 2023

Easier to use. Glad this system is being updated. Previous verification and security logins on the government and administrative sites has been a thorn in everyone's side.

I was nervous prior to my video chat due to my past experiences with other agents from various companies. Susy O., made my experience very easy going and very comfortable.
Mahalo Susy O., for making my experience as an online agent, the best experience I've had in a very longtime.
Mahalo,

When one occupies a position and performs responsibilities incompetently or incompletely, they prevent those responsibilities from being executed by an earnest, competent person. By failing to do your job well, you have not only failed yourself, but also everyone who depends on your work in order to fulfil their own responsibilities. You have cheated a competent person out of a job and stopped them from fulfilling your job description, as you also don't.
