Jo RhodesAs a company director in the UK who needs to submit our accounts.. I now need to verify my identity to do anything tax related. (correction - need it to submit our confirmation statement due in August .. but not yet to submit any accounts) They want photo ID like passport or driving license but also to take a photo via app. Site claims you can input info without the app eg driving license details and link it to credit check to confirm identity - but that doesn't work which seems deliberate. Can confirm ID in person at post office but you have to get a letter which will take ages and they still take a photo and scan your ID. So all smacks of AI shite and #Palantir type data harvesting dodginess - any thoughts masto folks #IDVerification #UKGov #CompaniesHouse #HMRC #DataSecurity #AgeVerification #FaceRecognition

Mathew AttleeI was having trouble using the One Login app to verify my identity for Companies House, as my initial attempt resulted me in inadvertently exceeding the maximum attempts. 😰 I tried calling customer support for them to reset my account, but they said that wasn’t possible. 😟 However, I was curious to see if deleting my account and creating it again would solve the issue, and it did! 😌 #OneLogin #CompaniesHouse
