And I'm willing to bet the whole thing is written in COBOL and 1970s dreams. No way any of the DOGE punks have ever even HEARD of that language (I took one semester in college, and actually enjoyed it.)
Yeah, the head of social security just threatened to shut the entire thing down, so I'm looking forward to not getting my checks again for who knows how long starting in April. :+( And all the closed offices....... for folks needing them...... We must not give UP. https://act.moveon.org/survey/impeach
I phoned today and waited 40 minutes for the call to be answered then heard a voice for a second then weird sound.
I kept saying hello, nothing then I heard a laugh, I guess they could hear me, but I could not hear them
I said this is not a laughing matter you shit fuck and hung up.
That company sucks! It makes it harder to screed one’s own account- face recognition software is horrible. Can’t believe they thought IDme would prevent fraud
I haven't used them, but was suspicious once I found out they were a private company. Glad to get an opinion from somebody who did use https://ID.me. I'll caution anybody I know who talks about using it.
Chrome quit working for me, and I switched to Firefox, which works fine. (I suppose I need to delete some cookies or something.) You might see if a different browser will work for you.
If you haven't been on in quite a while, they have a new way to logon which either requires an https://id.me or https://login.gov account. If you haven't done that, then maybe that is what is going on.
It's not difficult once you get into it now, I just had a heck of a time navigating the initial setup when I was unhoused and had no computer access before the system was able to be accessed from mobile devices. Since the https://id.me and https://id.gov got implemented its been quite a bit easier than it was.
True! It was a pain in the ass to answer all those questions to get the new secure login set up, but once that was over it was a breeze! I used login dot gov; I wonder if that other option would have been easier!!
It is of course by design that they make it as hard as possible without removing it altogether, so that fewer people are going to use it. Which would probably the most vulnerable which they care the least about
