You get your national insurance number thing two months before your 16th birthday which proves your age, allows you to get jobs etc...at least you do in Scotland heh:D I'm almost certain you get that in England to though no?

Yeah, i have just got my NIN, but for a couple of years i have had a card called a b_line card. It entitle you to free bus travel in the holidays, reduced fair, at other times as well as tonnes of other things. It has your name and a pic on it. Even though mine shows me with a large amount of hair, which i had shaved off yesterday, but still...

So, what, you just ignore the clear as day writing on it that says "THIS IS NOT PROOF OF IDENTITY"

It can't be used as ID for age, since you get them when you're 15. Doesn't have a photo, doesn't have your DOB, just a number. You could have ANYBODY'S card.

It doesn't prove your age at all.

That's what you need in game etc in Scotland. They ask you for it and if you have it then it's proof enough for them. I don't know why but it is.

Game and HMV are good in that way.. you buy a game and complete it withing 10 days

(works well during the holidays)

then return it for another one.


When returning a game ask for cash, don't do a swap or else it stays on the reciept
