@Surrey_EA This is exactly what i was looking for, a reference to some sort of government legislation. thank you!0

Err, it's not a policy though.
It's a piece of government legislation that all agents must comply with.
Huh? What?
I didn't say it wasn't law. I said that even if it wasn't (which it is), the op would still have to show his ID if that was the policy.
In other words I don't understand what the OP was arguing for anyway0 -

This thread can't be serious?0

If unhappy with the requirements, say F*** o** and buy from another agent.
But you surely knew this?0 -

..and try to find another agent that will not ask for exactly the same.................:o0 -
But you don't have to show id to walk in a shop and look at the shelves, it must be tiresome if you visit 20 EA's. And it should not really be needed until you want to put in an offer.
Yes it speeds up the process in a fast market.0
