  3. As a company director in the UK who needs to submit our accounts.. I now need to verify my identity to do anything tax related. (correction - need it to submit our confirmation statement due in August .. but not yet to submit any accounts) They want photo ID like passport or driving license but also to take a photo via app. Site claims you can input info without the app eg driving license details and link it to credit check to confirm identity - but that doesn't work which seems deliberate. Can confirm ID in person at post office but you have to get a letter which will take ages and they still take a photo and scan your ID. So all smacks of AI shite and #Palantir type data harvesting dodginess - any thoughts masto folks #IDVerification #UKGov #CompaniesHouse #HMRC #DataSecurity #AgeVerification #FaceRecognition

  5. I was having trouble using the One Login app to verify my identity for Companies House, as my initial attempt resulted me in inadvertently exceeding the maximum attempts. 😰 I tried calling customer support for them to reset my account, but they said that wasn’t possible. 😟 However, I was curious to see if deleting my account and creating it again would solve the issue, and it did! 😌 #OneLogin #CompaniesHouse

  6. Umm, #CompaniesHouse... I don't know where you've got that email address, but it isn't mine! (and I get a 503 Service Unavailable when I click the "Please sign in" link).

  8. I have a #court #judgement against a #spammer who hasn't paid up. I can send the bailiffs round, but these are all the other companies registered at the same address: find-and-update.company-inform

    And these are all the officers registered at the same address: find-and-update.company-inform

    So doesn't look dodgy at all.

    Google Streetview appears to show that this is a residential housing estate. WTF do #CompaniesHouse let this kind of shit happen?

  9. Maybe in this day in age, #CompaniesHouse should require businesses to provide contact email addresses for their officers?

  10. Former #Scottish #SalmonFarming boss accused of #spying on a key #critic of the industry is among the directors of a firm aiming to build the #UK ’s largest #FishFarm in #Grimsby

    According to #CompaniesHouse - Craig Anderson is a “person with significant control” of #AquaCulturedSeafoodLimited , which submitted early stage plans for a £75m onshore salmon farm in the English town at the end of last year.

  11. A #UK firm has been found at the heart of a high-level fraud conviction in #Russia.

    The #Magomedov brothers defrauded the Russian state of billions – via a Scottish limited partnership.

    The role played by this Edinburgh-registered ‘ghost’ firm in the saga has once again highlighted how little scrutiny there is on thousands of offshore-owned UK corporate entities.
