HermanBloom Jan 2013 3:48pm, 23 Jan 2013 2,755 posts	Quote Pin HermanBloom Yeah, would guess so. Seems overkill somewhat. At Stockholm I just wandered up with the email and they handed over the packs. Are the people handing out the packs really going to spend their day reading letters etc?
RuthB2 Jan 2013 3:50pm, 23 Jan 2013 11,027 posts	Quote Pin RuthB2 I think they should ask for a photo of the two of you together, to prove you know each other.
HermanBloom Jan 2013 3:55pm, 23 Jan 2013 2,756 posts	Quote Pin HermanBloom Think it should be interview, like when couples have to prove their love so both of them can stay in the country. When you first met, favourite films etc etc...
runner duck Jan 2013 4:30pm, 23 Jan 2013 9,823 posts	Quote Pin runner duck lol ruth! i love the idea they have any idea what i look like! i'd love to see the interviewer's face if you've got a fellow fetchie to collect for you and you've never actually met them!!
JohnnyO Jan 2013 4:57pm, 23 Jan 2013 14,831 posts	Quote Pin JohnnyO Isn't this fairly standard? I have had to collect numbers with photo id on a few occasions, it seems sensible that they apply some checks, or am I missing something.
FreshStart Jan 2013 5:03pm, 23 Jan 2013 565 posts	Quote Pin FreshStart I guess it's one way of trying to prevent people selling their numbers to complete strangers on RW/eBay etc.
runner duck Jan 2013 5:22pm, 23 Jan 2013 9,826 posts	Quote Pin runner duck no i just meant that if someone took photo id of me for my number how do they know it's me. it makes perfect sense if i'm standing there picking up the number. although the only time i did london mara i forgot my id but had my purse with cards in so the took that instead
