"If a personal cheque is not supplied with the application form, a certified copy of a passport OR driving licence OR EU Identity Card is required"
Not sure why they want a second one but they do look for it - they sent me back mine as the certified copy of drivers license didnt have a contact number on it, just the stamp and signature. I doubt they'll accept a work ID based on this.....might be worth a shot though, all they can say is no
My experience is that if you're opening an account in person you'll need half the amount of ID/proof of address than you need is you're doing it at a distance.
