in Credit cards
I was preapproved today for a Nat West credit card, 0% transfer fee. They now require photo Id as well as financial . I submitted driving licence from 2 years ago, and I had to take a photo of my face as now, without my glasses on. After several attempts a photo was accepted but surprise surprise my application was then rejected, failing on photo Id. So just to warn people that you need to get photo ids properly organised.

    If the licence has expired, it would be a problem, if it's in date then just complain to them

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    They generally don't like it if you wear glasses because it doesn't photo well, I had issues getting the ones from the booth that uploads automatically to passport office / dvla without removing mine - though the e-barrier at St Pancras allowed me through with a scan with them on. I take off glasses when I do face scans as well
