Experian to close more than two million Gov.uk Verify accounts Gov.uk Verify’s largest identity provider is closing down its accounts, telling users to re-register with one of the two remaining providers by the end of March 2021 Share this item with your network: By Published: 09 Feb 2021 12:45 Experian will close more than two million Gov.uk Verify accounts by March 2021, leaving users to find another identity provider (IDP) to be able to access government services. The company, which has long been the biggest IDP, announced last year that it was withdrawing from the scheme. Experian has now written to its 2.1 million users, saying that from 24 March 2021, “Experian ID will no longer work with government services and therefore your Experian ID account will be closed after this date”.
