Getting locked out
September 14, 2023

I started my verifying process with login.gov at first. I tried so many times to get verified using my driver's license but i could not get past the part where they wanted to send me a code to my old phone number that was no longer in service. So, i went to ID.me. I did not understand the difference between login.gov or id.me until i called for help and got the understanding from a id.me representative. I was still at a block because id.me wanted to send me a code to my phone that was no longer in service. After getting the right information was able to ask for what i needed which was a video verification. Id.me is the only company that offers this service, and within 2 weeks i was able to get verified over the cam using my driver's license and a social security card, and my beautiful face, thank you for doing that. Since then, i have been able to get discounts, compensation claims, pay my taxes, look at my retirement, and everything the government has about me. Really good secure tool, I'm glad all these checks are in place, and happy that all these government institutions are at my fingertips.

Poor quality
October 14, 2023

Poor to no connection with this service. The password system is unreliable and mostly unresponsive. I had to enter my name and password too many times.

ID.me user interface
September 14, 2023

Generally positive. Good use of font/text; mostly plain English, but some jargon still used. I rated 4stars only after my repeated attempts establish my profile and authentication options. Thankfully I was not blocked after multiple (3x) attempts to set up my preferred options.

Elements on the authentication screen are confusing. Once I make selection of user ID authentication method(s); there should be suppression or stronger differentiation between selected and in selection authentication options.

IRS SECURING IDENTITY
September 14, 2023

The ID.me experience is not the quickest but the best security I have encountered. When it comes to your taxes, a quick verification process is the last thing a taxpayer needs to be concerned with. So for me, I felt completely safe obtaining my information.

Advanced technology
September 14, 2023

It was very high technology for it's use in identifying a person to prevent fraudulent claims. On the civilian side of common community with moderate government interests. For myself I find it more challenging now for others trying to beat the system.

Complicated
September 14, 2023

Pretty hard to verify if you don't have your physical ID. I had to wait till it came in the mail. Even with mobile copy or the paper copy, I could not verify
