Hey everyone,
How would I go about obtaining a legal non fake ID that I can buy alcohol and cigarettes with without being hassled about my age. Im not a fan of carrying my passport around.

ISIC Card, NUS Card?
CitizenCard? UreLife? ValidateUK? YoungScot?

They're not guarenteed to be accepted. Personally I'd get a provisional even if it was just for ID

They are the licensed trade approved form of ID along with Passport or Driving Licence.
If it has the PASS logo, it will be accepted...providing it's got your photo on it, obviously!

A lot of night clubs and bars don't accept them.
I've run bars for 17 years, and they are the only ID approved by the Police and Local Councils other than Passports and Driving Licences. Knowledge of them is part of the National Licencess Certificate, which you need to hold in order to get a Personal Licence.
It is advocated by Pubwatch and Clubwatch schemes countrywide, as well as the Best Bar None scheme.
There are plenty of ID's out there without the PASS logo that aren't accepted, but ones with the PASS logo are.
It even says this on the PASS site:
If you have a PASS card and it is refused by a retailer you should contact the company that issued your card with the following information:
* The name and address of the outlet or venue where you were refused
* The day
* The date
* The time
This information will help your card issuer contact the venue and find out why the card was refused. This card refusal form will ensure you complete the necessary information that will help the card issuer follow up your enquiry.

There are still a lot of places that do not accept them, I'm not debating whether places should accept them but the fact is a lot of places don't. It's ok telling you what to do if it's not accepted but that's not going to help you on a night out. When you think about it, the fact that it mentions that on the websites implies that some places don't accept it.

I agree. This is the only ID I have (minus a passport, which I don't want to take into a club and drunkenly lose) and I've probably been refused service more times than it's been accepted. Shop workers usually seem to be ok and about 70% of the time it works if I argue with the bouncer, but it's still embarassing and stupid.
They're only £4.50 so they're good value, but I'd say get a driving license if you can afford it because it's a lot less hassle.
in theory you should be able to have any form of ID with the "pass" logo hologram on it.
this includes such things as Citizen cards.
they sholud be accepted everywhere but occasionally they will be turned down, the best bets is a drivers license or a passport, some places will accept a colour photocopy of a passport but its not that widely accepted.
plus getting a provisional license isn't going to be a bad thing in the long run especially if you eventually want to learn to drive.

I worked for Asda, and we didn't accept anything other than passport or driver's licence.
