Great experience
November 9, 2023

Tom from the savannah Georgia office was very patient with me. I'm very inexperienced with this process and he helped me through the entire process very patiently. He deserves a serious raise and bonus because of how helpful he is. A plus

Incompetence reigns!
November 16, 2023

Quite horrible to use. The links they send to your phone fail with "low memory" on your phone, even though there's 30+ GB free. Their site won't take a scanned image of your passport - either incompetence or maybe not enough money in selling passport images. You can't use a web cam on a PC to for the image, only on your phone, otherwise you get the ever-informational "there was a problem" error. Incompetence rules at id.me! But I guess that matters little with a big government contract in your pocket, where failure is rewarded with more money!

Safe and secure ID verification
November 9, 2023

ID.me provided an efficient, fast and secure way to verify my identity. The video process was implemented quickly and fuss-free, following fast upload of identity documents. There was sufficient guidance through prompts during the entire upload process. I highly recommend this third party provider for verification services.
