Ditto, I carried my military ID everywhere for well over a decade, and it "opened doors" that would otherwise would have been shut to me.
But I do not want to pay for a civilian ID, and would be wary of what private company was given the contract to issue them and maintain the databases.
Our daughter, almost 28 years old, looks a lot younger so gets denied access to clubs, pubs and other venues. Plus she often gets refused the right to buy alcohol or tobacco. She can't have a (£43) provisional licence due to her disabilities, has no need (yet) of a (£85) passport, has her (£15) Citizen Card ignored, and her French ID card leaves people bewildered.
With all the hoops she had go jump through to open a bank account, I would have thought it easy to just put her photo on her bank card.
