Land Registry ID1 form online - recommendations?

malc_b

Can anyone recommend an online service for the land registry ID1 form (aka ID5)?  And the cheaper the better, this is MSE after all.

I've seen one that says £59 but that changes to £69 on later pages, and it requires proof that everyone is linked to the property which seems odd and I'm not sure exactly what that means.  The ID5 form itself just requires a passport or a full driver's license, although the verify process does say the person's address has been verified so I can see that for the ID5 someone might reasonably want proof of you home address.  I'm not sure why this also includes the the property being changed too as you might not be linked to that address by any paper.

Suggestions?

I used www.id5.co.uk. It was ok, but I did have to chase for the form to be sent to me.

Thanks for info.  I can't seem to get an answer from ID5, I've emailed and left messages on the phone but no one replies, although if I click book it gives me slots this Thursday and Friday and most of every day next week.  Did you have to produce paper documents or just pdfs?  For the link to the property that is.  Passport or driving license is of course physical.

Did you get any luck with this company. I am also looking for a solicitors practice for verifying my ID1. Any recommendations?

Yes they eventually got back to me, AFAIR a whatapps call from China or HongKong as one partner was on holiday or something one and one was in China/HK/? or somewhere (I'd clearly make a lousy police witness). Anyway, he were very helpful, I thought, but things changed at my end hence I've not gone ahead with it yet, so I can't tell you how it worked out. They were the one I was going to use though as all the others I found were ones offering cheaper price but not available, or ones offering this service at double or more the price. ID5 were the only ones I found who offered the service for a not unreasonable price and who seemed a reasonable outfit.
