This is an ID verification and will confirm if the ID number and surname
entered match, but will not return a photo of the person.
It will return minimal information – ID number and surname match, if the
ID is stolen or deceased status.
Important:
Should you
get a code V2, V3, or V4 please send a clear copy of the ID to the TPN
helpdesk. We will manually verify the ID document with Home Affairs.
Please see below for codes and their descriptions:

Meaning
|

V0
|
ID and surname
verified
|
The ID number specified was issued to a
person with the surname specified according to the Home Affairs database.
This ID has not been marked as either stolen or deceased.
|
|
V1

The ID number specified has never been
issued by Home Affairs. It
is highly probable that the ID being used is fraudulent.
|
|
V2
|
ID not yet
verified
|
The ID number specified has not yet been
verified by Home Affairs. This warning will usually come up with a young
consumer - every time a new consumer is loaded onto TransUnion the credit
bureau will return the result "ID not yet verified"
|
|
V3
|
ID and surname do
not match
|
The ID number specified does not match to
the surname specified.
This could be a result of a spelling
mistake when capturing the data, or from a maiden name change. Please note
that surnames with special characters (hyphens etc.) will always give this
warning, as TransUnion does not allow for special characters in the input
field.
|
|
V4
|
ID deceased
|
The ID number specified has verified as
belonging to a deceased person. It is highly probable that the ID being used is fraudulent.
