Hard Work

Absolutely dreadful to use, why can you not just take a picture of your passport and a scan of your passport. It took so long to get everything aligned correctly for the process to kick in, by the time I was told to go back to my laptop i got an error message for being timed out. Massively overthought and unnecessary process to go through when it could have been easier to do

Very hard to scan passport chip

As the title says. Otherwise good

MR

Ineffective service. Didn’t work.

Proving who I am again!

This is the second time I have had to prove to a government department who I am. I previously carried this painful procedure out when applying for my passport. Where is this joined up administration? If I have done this for one department surely it should be an easy task to access this across departments if I give you approval!

Rubbish

The whole engagement with this system is completely Kafkaesque and an example of the encroaching surveillance Society.

Awful experience with IDV

I have now had to use 2 separate email addresses and, despite passing IDV successfully, I continue to get error messages. Then when I get an error message I’m told to create a new email address and try again!

Useless

Wouldn’t accept my driving licence photo card and now i’m just going round in circles between the website and the app with no way to resolve the situation. Emails to help centre are equally useless. They just provide a list of FAQ’s which are all irrelevant.

Login

Now this is how to load your information for getting your information uploaded to a website. Very slick.

Identity

Great techniques

Useless will not take the photo of my passport

A waste of all our time

Utter performative muck that will do zero to combat fraud.

Can’t verify passport photo not taking automatically no option to take it manually

I can’t get past verification stage as the camera lens goes green but fails to actually take the photo to let me move on! Incredibly frustrating

Driving licence

A lot of faf to change an address

My ID

Very easy to use

Waste

All I wanted to do was submit my self assessment. Took me 10mins to do the assessment and now I have been at this for 2 hours just trying to log in. Tech is supposed to make things easier, not longer and harder.

Bad!

Ridiculously complicated. A non starter!

Review of Digital ID

Awful faff, complete time waster .

Bit dystopian

All I wanted to do was let the DVLA know my address has changed. No idea why I was obliged to get this app. +1 star because it did eventually unlock the DVLA change of address form but pretty dystopian experience and took ages compared to last time I moved.

Discriminates against those without euipement / unable to use

What a shocking system that is only available to those who. An afford / have access to and can use digital services. This
is discrimination writ large
