A Long and Winding Road
April 24, 2025

Be prepared for long wait times, a virtual agent that gets stuck in a logic loop, obtain multiple case files with unfulfilled promises of a call back and at te end read a statement about your problem being sent to the technical support for resolution.

ID. Me identification never worked for me
April 24, 2025

Extremely frustrating experience. I needed ID. Me verification in order to apply for SS retirement benefits from outside the US. The verification process went fairly smoothly and efficiently, only drawback was that it never worked. Every single time I tried to log in with ID. Me I was denied access. I tried to contact their help desk but all I ever heard back from them was an automated message and a survey about the experience.

April 24, 2025

Over recent few years customer service and business are either null and void or very low quality. So, I have been Unpleasantly Not surprised by the majority.

Good experience
April 24, 2025

It took some time, but at last I succeeded had good experience. Reasons why I said that it took some time from me being that most of the information I got were initially rejected and I kept changing till they were finally accepted; even my email, password, ID and selfie.

Important Step
April 24, 2025

Once I signed up for ID Me, getting into the SSA is much easier and with a feeling of security. Make sure you take time to read and understand the instructions. I especially like the face recognition procedure. It is very thorough and, in my opinion, makes it more secure.

Government mandated monopoly service
April 24, 2025

Forced to use this subpar service to gain access to our own info. Another taxpayer funded monopoly. We shouldn't have to use a single point of contact for every interaction with government

Uncertain and wondering
April 24, 2025

This is the one and only time I had to jump through the hoops of a referee using video. I finally made it through and was verified. I asked her now what, do I get through to the IRS sight I was trying to get to? She stated that after we hang up she can send an email to me for further instructions. I thought I had been scammed and was frantic. I was searching everywhere to see if ID. Me uses video verification, since this had never happened before. I still have not received that email.
