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.

For people living abroad
April 15, 2023

Using ID.me I was finally able to set up a MySocialSecurity account with a foreign address and mobile phone number. The procedure was not very complicated - the needed codes came through quickly and the e-mails also - and it was easy to upload the necessary document files (photos not accepted). Once they were approved I was informed of how long the wait would be to speak to an agent so I could decide whether to wait or come back another day. The video chat was also very easy (in comparison with a recent attempt at my first Zoom call) and the agent extremely friendly - it took just a couple of minutes to show her my identification.

Please click the link that never hit your email server- OR- enter the code in the email you never received to verify your account. Resend the email to the server that we never sent-to before. (I contacted my web host after exhaustively checking every filter that could've affected emails from *******@id.me.) Their servers never saw any such messages (even after I resent them about 10 times). In order to enable two-factor authentication your email has to work. And so forth. (And these people collect personal information, so look over your shoulder for the rest of your life.)

The support specialist was great. However the most awful part of the experience was your AI software not being able to read or identify my information with the documentation I was submitting.

Tax season
April 14, 2023

Just had to verify a log in to get my previous tax return to do this years? Weird ordeal, at first I was annoyed but then my host Leann made me feel so great and like it was just EASY! Had to virtually verify my identity. People like Leeann deserve multiple raises a year!
