Why do I need to prove my identity?
Whether you've opened a new account or are an existing customer, we need to confirm your identity before you do any transaction with us.
We need you to prove your identity to meet UK money laundering regulations and help stop criminals from using our services for their own benefit.
What information do I need to provide?
We will only ask for enough information to allow us to open your account.
We will tell you if we need you to provide further evidence of your name, address and date of birth once we've received your application.
To confirm your identity, we need to verify your name and address.
We may ask a registered Credit Reference Agency to check your identity electronically.
We may also ask you to provide paper ID.
