Waste of time
November 7, 2023

It was obvious to me that a crucial part of the instructions for how to upload my IDs was missing from the website. I then used the "Help" to try to get assistance since I could use neither method for verification. I got a person who did not seem able to read or comprehend English. I think this person was a bot, or perhaps some kind of AI reader. She sent and resent and resent and resent the same useless "how to upload" incomplete instructions. She always included "I am always happy to assist" in her messages which would have been laughable if I had been in the mood to laugh while I was spending hours trying to get ID.me to work.

Helpful and fast
October 31, 2023

I am a techno dummy. I was able to scan requested documents and send them, but final verification was a little more difficult. The representative was very understanding and helpful in walking me through a video chat to finalize everything.

It sucks!
November 7, 2023

There's no immediate help if you need it. It's very frustrating to understand it and it didn't work for me at all!

It's sad there has to be so many steps to verify that we are who we say we are. But be that as it is, this process was acceptable. The directions were pretty clear.

It was helpful to be told about how many minutes it would take to complete the process.

Also, the directions were clear to me when to go from my cell phone back to my "other device"/my laptop.

Once we got to the video call, the process was smooth and efficient.

ID.Me is hopeless
November 7, 2023

ID me is the single most needlessly complex software I've ever had to use. Signing up took over a week and was plagued by dropped connections and technical issues.

Avoid the selfies.
October 31, 2023

Several attempts to use the selfie method. This method relies on technology too much. The live chat you are dealing with a human agent and human intelligence and decision making.

Love it
October 31, 2023

Though I've had minor problems with id.me (such as updating the email address on my account), it is a fantastic service overall. More and more websites use and trust id.me for professional verification, streamlining things like military verification, photo identification, etc, which can otherwise take multiple business days to process if a manual document verification is required by an organization. If you have a military id in particular, I strongly recommend that you take advantage of id.me's service asap. I did, and it it an absolute gamechanger.
