[Security] PROOF online filing for Companies House
After I completed our Confirmation Statement, I was offered this:
PROOF (PROtected Online Filing) is a free service offering additional protection for your company from the threat of fraudsters and corporate identity theft.
PROOF ensures that the following filings can only be filed online (paper filings will be rejected)
- Registered office address
- Officer appointments, terminations or changes
- Annual return
I don't really see any reason to not do it, as I can't think of when we'd be filing things via paper post anyway.
(It's also not clear to what extent this is a service
- it's just an instruction to not accept paper submissions 🤷♂️ )
@nelsonic as dwyl's Worf/Odo/Tuvok, what do you think?
And how's this for a dark pattern, eh?
