Online sale age restriction 18+ proof now required UK

[VE Jason]

Most vendors have known about this for many months and the vast majority will be using automatic or database verification - which is probably why people haven't heard much

You're already age verified by many sites online - you just don't know it's happening because it's automatic (based on electoral roles etc).

So, nothing to concern about IMO

Nice one Bobsbeer, IMO you've summed it up perfectly. Finding it difficult  to understand why, at this late stage cigeliquid have been the only vendor to post here regarding this latest bout of stupidity. Being nearly 24 hours since the OP I would have thought this would have prompted some other prominent vendors to post their comments.

Give them a chance, they haven't stopped laughing yet 

The decision was taken in parliament on 25th March, think they've had plenty time to laugh and could have shared the joke with us a shade earlier than September.

Thanks VE Jason for your input. Looks like things will carry on pretty much as they are for now then.

I wasn't referring to the Bill rather the method of authentication being proposed in this thread

Up until the message by VE Jason I was going to say that the only way they can verify me is either by my piccy on the forums or Video Skyping me, because
a) I don't have/want a credit card
B) I will not be sending any proof of my old age whatsoever.

On line verification systems developed for the on line gambling industry are readly available to perform the over 18 age checks, unfortunately integrating the system represent a fairly large expense plus they have an additional charge per check, this charge for low volume usage can work out a little high.
