My personal AML experience.
...................................................................
And anyway why just a week ago? (because I live overseas they say. erm and....) because Experian couldn't verify me they say (I know as a point of fact they have done at least twice before for other companies)
..........................................
Unless you have confirmed otherwise, there is no guarantee that they have even checked with Experian before failing you on AML.
A number of posters have commented that no enquiries were made with Experian before the were told they had failed the checks and to submit additional documentation.
They SAID Experian had failed me. But then again they SAID they had emailed me.

Hi
I am a foreign investor and just now receiving the notification about AML check
the documents they request and certified in english is going to be a nightmare
My only option is an english speaking lawyer but I was wondering if anyone had a sample letter of what exactly should be written if they used that option to pass the AML check
they mention it on option g in their emails

PS: Can a lawyer also certifies the ID document? here in the post office they clearly don't do that
I see that even a dentist can certifies the document? how is that even possible
clearly I am lost here

Fortunately I have stock of certified passport copies, which are still in date. I suggest you ask for half a dozen
For the passport you must use the exact words they require, as in para g
the document is a true copy of the original

Any professional person can certify documents. A dentist is just one example of a professional person.

Years ago I attempted to get the British Banking Association to settle on a form of words, because each bank's lawyer has come up with a different formula.
They chose not to, demonstrating their (non existent) devotion to putting customers first

thanks a lot but they want the utility bill and statement in english, here it won't happen, it's not the official language..
so I was thinking as per point G if the lawyer certifying the address was enough without providing further documents

I think your best bet is to email them and ask, that's if they bother I'm still waiting for a reply from last week, as they keep changing their mind on what is acceptable.

I quote: The following areas of the documents must be identifiable in English – name, address, date of birth, bank account details and any expiry dates.
A foreign language document, bank statement, utility bill, will still have all these "identifiable" in English. And no they will want one of these as well as the passport. I'm surprised you don't have a UK bank

The address I was given to send documents included Shoosmiths which is a firm of pricey lawyers, albeit this office is staffed by monkeys
