ID.me is a valuable asset!
May 13, 2025

ID.me is a trustworthy asset to use and have when using public websites that require your data. It gives you a sense of security without having to worry about ID theft or stolen ID. It is very secure, and I'm thankful that websites are now using this software.

BEWARE CLOSE YOUR EYES
May 12, 2025

You lied to me, you tricked me.
You're scanning of my face with the lasers. Is information/process/injuries I did NOT approve for you to do to me or to have.
And I have done some research on how much more intrusive you can be with the scan of my face now.

Don't waste your time use the other option
May 12, 2025

Waste of time. It doesn't work on a cell phone. Wake up people it is 2025! Multiple log in attempts and you end up going round in circles.

Cost me my $1400 stimulus check
May 12, 2025

Trying to file my tax for 2021 idme would not verify my id and pic so I was told they were going to do a video call, I never got a call to verify and could not log onto the IRS web site thus causing me to lose the $1400 stimulus check. I wonder if I can hold them accountable and have them send me $1400 they made me lose out on?

Navigation was not easy
May 12, 2025

I found it difficult to maneuver through all the demands away from home. Email communication was nonexistent. Ultimately was able to get verified through their verification with the help of a live person, only to be blocked by Social Security saying their info did not match. Seems I wasted a lot of time to get me nowhere and no help from their help center so far, and no phone number to get a live person to help straighten everything out. Not the best way to try and get into a government agency.

ID.me stupidity
May 12, 2025

I already have several times throughout this interview on my opinion. It is about the worst way for people to go to their IRS accounts I have ever seen. People do not know how to talk to each other anymore. That is what telephone's were made for by our forefathers. They were not made for games, texting, and all other types of crap

Will never do this again
May 12, 2025

Need to set up the account. Not very good at computer or cell phone. First video call, told the agent my difficulties. I could not believe his response was " you should know how to do this, we are in 21st century" how rude. No company should hire someone like this.

Easy, simple and secure
May 12, 2025

I received a letter from the IRS that prompted me to sign up for ID.me. The process was well-described and simple to follow. With the facial profile taken via selfie, I was assured that my account would be safe from scammers and other nefarious activity.

Finally, with the help of a very patient rep I was able to overcome the bureaucratic process of signing in.
