Hi stevo159753,

Glad to hear you want to open a bank account with us. If you don't have valid photo ID or proof of address, your mother can go with you and bring her photo ID and proof of address. You should bring your out-of-date passport so the branch can keep it on file too.

Also, we would advise you to make an appointment with your local branch. You can find contact details for our branches here.

In the meantime, you can find out more information on our 2nd Level Student Current Account here.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Thanks,
Graham

You're welcome stevo159753.

We no longer offer Laser cards as a product. 2nd level accounts come with an ATM card, however, you may be able to request a Visa Debit card when you open the account.

Thanks again for posting,
Graham
