Certifying documents
My private pension providers have asked me to send my passport, driving licence, birth certificate, etc. to prove my identity. I'm not keen to send original documents so they've now sent me a letter to ask for other documents certified....

One laugh - a UK fund manager asked for a utility bill to prove address, so I sent a gas bill.
Response: What's this?
Me: A gas bill
Her: It's in Hungarian!
Me (sarcastically): Funny that!
Her: How do I know it's a gas bill?
Me: Word Gaz at the top?
Her: Should say gas.
Me: Does it matter, it's obviously a bill in my name with address displayed as listed on application.
Her: Not accepted.
Me: Fine.
Business placed elsewhere.

Our lawyer has always taken photocopies & added a statement that these are copies certified by her, with appropriate stamps, etc. Never been a problem.
