Following their guidelines I need to scan my passport and/or driving licence and/or marriage certificate(?) or any manner of documents to prove my identity so as to re-activate my account...bollocks to that! Thing is, there is so much fraudulent activity out there these days, they have to make sure. It is for our protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What about oval car racing from 1954? Oh, he already did that... Edited December 9, 2020 by chunky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a shame that they hadn't been more diligent when I initially signed up...if I recall you only need to enter an email and password (plus date of birth - which can be anything you wish?) to create an account? Don't recall having to forward further proof of evidence of identity (certainly not a passport or driving licence) but it was a long time ago now but I'm not going to pusue it as I can't be bothered!

We never had all the problems with scams and identity theft back then... Just sad that we have to deal with all these idiots now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was a name used by a leading Coventry speedway rider. Can any Coventry speedway historian name who he really was? I also think a couple of other Coventry speedway riders also drove under other names at this time? Steve Storm was Charlie New. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
