Confirming your identification (ID)
It is a legal requirement for healthcare providers to verify the identity of their patients when requesting prescription medication via an online service. In the same way that you must provide ID to first register with your GP we are required BY LAW to carry out the same identity check on patients when they first register with us.
The check is performed when you submit your registration form – and will be required ONCE ONLY. Existing customers who have not yet provided ID (as this is a new level of security we have been instructed to implement) will be required to do so when they place their next order.
What kind of photo ID can you use
We accept any of the following documents provided they have not expired
- Passport
- Driving Licence (full or provisional)
- National Identity Card
Simply take a photograph of your ID and upload it during your registration process or login to your account to complete it
Your ID verification status
When you login to your account, you are taken immediately to your dashboard, where you can see the status of your ID as follows
- ID verification required – click the button and follow the prompts to upload your image
- ID verification pending approval – you have uploaded your ID and it is waiting to be checked by a member of the team
