From their web page: passport; EU/EEA-issued ID; driving license; residence permit; emergency passport or travel document; asylum seeker residence permit; ship passport. (Plus a separate proof of address, which was not a problem.)
A lot of people in th UK don't have a currently valid passport or driving license, especially after not travelling for a few years due to the pandemic, or if they are young, or old, or never left the country. The other items in the list are unlikely for a UK citizen in the UK.
The nearest I had was a passport which had expired just a few months before but they wouldn't accept it. They required a currently valid passport. That's unusual; many places accept an expired passport especially if it's recently expired.
I really didn't expect such a restrictive id list to receive a small cash transfer from Western Union of all places. The whole point is you go in and show the receipt the sender gave you so you can collect.
