PosteID Customer Insights

1. It is really a struggle to take the picture of confirmation when the image is rotated 90 degrees and distorted to fit in the image.It doesn't work when creating SPID: 1) It takes the picture of the passport automatically, instead of letting you take the picture and THEN checking its quality, which is annoying, but you can make it work after few attempts 2) when reading the NFC, it gets stuck in a loop: even after having correctly read the passport chip, and you have confirmed the info (DoB, passport number and expiry date) it starts again in reading it, without going to the next step.

2. It doesn't seem well thought? I would assume very easy to include international numbers especially after Poste press release around Italians living abroad.The app works like something that came out of a gorilla's rear on a bad stomach day :)If you live abroad and need to register for SPID don't bother using this app, it won't work.

3. The picture for confirming the face with passport is all wrong , rotating the image , distorting the image.

4. Has the developer even tried the app before releasing it? Image recognition of the characters under the passport was hit and miss, took a LOT of attempts.

5. For reasons I cannot explain the app camera shows my face laying horizontally rather than vertically making it impossible also for me to record the voice message.

6. Another typical Italian fail.Where should I start? The NFC reading is just all wrong, have to read the passport like six times.

7. Waste of time, why have an option for Italian nationals resident abroad when it clearly doesn't work? Again, don't bother with this app.

8. I have managed to use it just fine right up to the point where I need to record a voice message and my face needs to be within a circle.

9. I tried multiple times on the app (seen as it's meant to be the free way of doing this) and when I contacted customer service via email about my declined registration they said I had to call them to chat about it.

10. not secure at all.The app was okay-ish but it doesn't work with international numbers (no OTP).

11. Seems to have worked in the end, but the preview of the images was so pixelated that I don't know if it is actually good enough or not.After entering all info, exactly as required, you just receive an email stating that they can not verify some information.
