When you open a new account with us, we are required by the Money Laundering Regulations to verify your identity. We do this by asking you for evidence of your name and address. This is nothing to worry about - it is designed to make it harder for criminals to use stolen identities and every bank, building society and financial institution is required to comply with these regulations.
Our Proof of Identity Checklist details the documents we will need to verify your name and address.
