Easy to set up and use but...
April 23, 2025

How can we possibly know our data is secure? Are the latest protocols employing the latest and most robust state of the art technology, etc. in place to protect us? Of course they will tell us our data is safe. But being that so much personal data is being stored on such a platform, we should at the very least be skeptical. Nothing is 100% impermeable.

Computers suck
April 15, 2025

So, has anyone noticed that prior to computers, Identity theft was not even a thing? It's a fool's game to think that anything that can be transmitted in digital format is secure. I am over 60 years old and remember when things worked just fine before they were even used in daily life. Trust me... it was better.

I have used this service multiple times and have no problems being able to log in to check account information or change information the government agency allows to be changed. If anything, this service/program works better than some of the agencies' websites it enables access to.

You have to do it.
April 23, 2025

You have no other choice. Own a smartphone w/ a good camera and lots of spare memory space to download Zoom or whatever app this for profit agency are pushing at the time. Jump thru hoops to prove that you are worthy or be unable to access government services. This is just a barrier to access basic services.

Horrid. Quirky software on even something as simple as an Apple 6e smart phone. Got lost in finding tabs and heaven only knows what else. Ironically, even though I got lost after gymnastics to get ID. Me's face recognition to work, I was admitted to the IRS site. Spooky and not confidence inspiring as more than a way to allow the government (over which I have absolutely no influence) to enrich ID. Me.

ID. Me was a breeze
April 15, 2025

From start to finish the process was thorough, and very easy to navigate, uploading documents, multifaceted step verification pass key as well as text message to verify, if you choose. My experience was very enjoyable and not a problem at all and I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to know about ID. Me. I highly recommend it as an extra layer of security for ones identity and information is essential for one's peace of mind.

A great and fairly quick service.
April 15, 2025

Once you make sure all of your documents are in order, this site is like throwing your cards out and having the greatest hand for your game. With to-the-point questions from your agent that aim get you moving forward, it is a great way to file yourself.

Crashed - or poor design
April 23, 2025

Of course data security is a concern but we are stuck with risks to work w government agencies. The ID. Me account setup worked ok until the selfie. Then it seemed to crash and I didn't get any confirmation or error message. Not a good way for the process to end

Dissatisfaction
April 30, 2025

I was disappointed because it took too long for them to get bask after I explain why my account got suspended for some reason and what I was needing it verified for' and that it made me miss out on thousands of dollars my family desperately could have used

Annoying
April 14, 2025

It's VERY annoying to do AT ALL, but even worse when it repeatedly doesn't work for unknown reasons. There are unclear instructions, and the feedback (suggested moving to a darker area when instructions said "well-lit area"). There is no interpretable preview image to determine correct lighting or correct angle. It says "live detection" but doesn't suggest whether one should move, stay still, blink, smile, or what? Very annoying overall.
Why does this survey imply that all that was needed was a sign-in when it actually insisted on a prolonged video capture?

This is bull$#*!
April 29, 2025

Total bull$#*!. This review is exactly what I was talking about. Why should I have to waste my time on explaining why this is bull$#*!. It should be a very simple process for veterans to get to their doctor or records without having to go through all this trouble.

Process
January 31, 2025

It took me two days to complete the interview. Because, when it came to photos of my state ID a social security and facial recognition was kicked out numerous times. I believe it was based on discrimination as name is hispanics.

The automated photo-identification comparison between my real image and my driver license photo did not properly function. The whole "ID. ME" registration process was too complicated, with no understanding shown of what data was recorded, and how that may have differed from my regular Social Security website registration, with its own ID and Password. It should be a check-off process with data that has already accepted being shown on screen, with the ability to "Go--Back" and correct. I found it so complex that I never completed the PIN registration. Maybe another time. This is not a well-organized process, The photo ID comparison with my Driver License photo and my live photo never worked, no matter how much I tried. It never showed any feedback as to how close I was coming to an acceptable image comparison. Nor did it say why it was not acceptable. A lot of wasted effort.
