Just received the below email - Does this mean they want more evidence or is this the normal email before the account opens?

Thanks. I'm just curious as to what those formalities are. Also did more emails follow-up after this email or am I now to wait for something in the post?Bazzalona13295 said:

I've had nothing since but its only been around 48 hours, I'd guess the next communication would be another e-mail.worriednoob said:

I could be wrong so see if anyone says anything different.0 -
Can you open the co op account first and then request a switch once it’s open?0

Can anyone say what is required for the account application? Obviously you need to fill in personal details, etc., but what I'm asking about is extra requirements, such as a selfie holding photo ID or a video (things that always seem to cause me problems!). Thanks.0
