With this specific search, you'll be able to electronically verify a client's identity by checking the following:
Name verified
Date of birth verified
Residential address verified
Mortality list clear
PEP, Sanctions, and Adverse media clear
The cost of this search is £1.00 + VAT, which will be added to your monthly invoice once the check is completed.
Here are the data sources we use, which will only search based on the information entered into Firmcheck:
Equifax Check
Experian Check
UK Electoral Roll Check
Landline Check
National Identity Register Check
Mortality Check
If the client's date of birth, residential address, and full name haven't been added in the client profile, you'll be prompted to do so here. Otherwise, the information will automatically pull through, and you can simply select the "Run check" button.
Once the check is completed and the results have been returned, you’ll see green ticks indicating successful verification.
Once you're confident that the verification process is complete, you can update the status of the "Verification" tab. Simply select the status from the dropdown menu, save the changes, and a date stamp will appear to confirm the update.
