sorted byMany have boxed themselves into that particular box of tradition where it is only about driving license or passport ID. Before spreading misinformation which is common with this particular genuine ID option, I suggest you consider some facts:-
* The 18+ CitizenCard should be accepted across the UK.
* The National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC) and the Home Office Security Industry Authority (SIA) logos on the front of the card confirm that it is valid ID.
* The Proof of Age Standards Scheme (PASS) hologram and UV mark on the card are endorsed by the UK and Scottish Governments.
Other benefits are:-
* Organisations and retailers also have an option if you present card, where they can check you are a legitimate cardholder at verify.citizencard.com and this complies with UK GDPR.
* There is a QR code on the reverse of the card that can be quickly scanned.
* A free CitizenCard Verify App can be downloaded to check your card is genuine in seconds.
* Having recently updated my own driving license (at cost), and most know first the pain of obtaining passports, and the speed of the DVLA and Passport Office.... CitizenCard by comparison is simplicity and efficient.
I take an alternative view of why would you not want a CitizenCard when its free? Why would something that provides a more efficient, no cost ID route that will help many across all parts of society not be welcome here?
when folks have a passport ,driving licences these days they are all forms of identifications.
people who don’t want to carry their passport everywhere? Only waste of time was from whoever attempted to teach you english
Was a no brainer for me. HOT!
Many institutions stick to this because it's quick and easy . Also it passes the onus onto someone else of doing any checks. Of course alternative options are available .
