Speaking of IDs...

States :-

"Initially, the new system will check users' identities by asking for
their postcode and National Insurance number but, in common with other
digital government services, it will eventually allow people to use
their bank's system to prove their identity on websites providing
government services.

Clicking on an icon will allow people to complete the check required by
their bank, mobile phone company, or other service provider.

The approach would cut the number of passwords people need to remember,
and avoid the need for a central government system to establish identities."

Are banks and mobile phones providing some sort of ID services of which
I was unaware?
