Many hours wasted trying to log onto my Social Security Account. ID me was unable to resolve my issue and left me without a way to log into my account. It seems that they washed their hands of my situation as it is still unresolved.

The ID me Experience
December 7, 2025

My accountant needed to update & access my SSA info for tax purposes. At age 72 I'm not that tech savvy. It was very helpful to have had my personal ID updated years ago to the "real ID" w the gold star.
He guided me remotely thru the procedure & it all worked. First time. I even got my disabled wife to hold still for ID verification scan.
Slight hitch was her mobile phone(which I sometimes carry) was not acknowledged by SS Admin. It was our Land Line we never use in the basement. SS Admin left her numeric code on phone machine. Whew.

Protection that's Trustworthy
December 6, 2025

Very easy to set up, facial recognition, strong password application, additional safety verification, text/email. Glad it stores all the required info needed to login securely.

Use this on windows 10/11 SSA and it worked. Tried using it a Kay Jewelers on my mobile phone and it did not work. Couldn't use military discount - paid full price.

Best way to securely Gaurd my data
December 6, 2025

It took me two hours, but I was in the hospital, trying to do it on my cell phone. Other than that it probably would've been faster.

Invasive and overwrought process
December 6, 2025

It required using my phone to take a "video selfie," which felt invasive and was overly involved, and failed the first time I tried it.

It was difficult to get a good photograph of my drivers license, and so it read the year wrong and I had to fix it later.

Never use ID.me
December 6, 2025

I can never use this service to completion and be able the be verified. The system always hangs up on the video selfie, though I have a 2025 Samsung phone. Very frustrating. My husband and I have attempted use 3 times to no result

Can not access my account because I changed my phone number. I verified my identity and was sent a text message accepting the verification, however, I still can't access my online account.

Overreach, invasive
December 6, 2025

I have logged in to id.me many times over the last decade. This new verification process is time consuming and overly invasive, imho. You have to provide your full SSN, photo of your drivers license, AND you have to scan your face. They say there is no guarantee that your information is secure. I felt like I was bringing scammed the whole time I was jumping through their hoops. Terrible experience.
