Aren't Old Aged Pensioners "normal" people then?
Let me know how they solved it for you please.
Let's substitute 'average' if its less offensive.
They're typically less comfortable with modern technology than the national average. They're also more likely to be out of employment so less of a target audience.
Limiting technology to the lowest level of competence is not a good plan.
Don't confuse competence with common sense. The competency of many of the younger generation, who stumble around gawping at their phones with drool coming out of the corner of their gobs, cannot be said to represent the pinnacle of the human species.

If youre using a Nokia 105 then you're either a child who has been given it to ensure they don't use age inappropriate content, have a specific need for a long battery life device, or have deliberately chosen not to interact fully with the modern world. All modern services expect access to emails and smartphones.
It's your choice to make, who knows maybe it'll make you happier/healthier/wealthier. But if you choose to step out of society then society will move on without you.
My friend is self-employed.
He - in your words - "provides a service" to banks and the like, in his role as an IT-type wallah.
Are you trying to claim that those "banks and the like" are exempt from any responsibility for ensuring that he is legally-entitled to work in the UK?
Originally you said it was a case of 'low competency'.
Another reason would be that not everyone is willing to roll over and comply with authoritarian initiatives, still less when they're forced to pay for the privilege.
It is a lifestyle choice, I find mobile phones invasive, my work phone is basic it doesnt have an answer machine either. I can be contacted via a phone call, not WhatsApp or messenger or text message or email.
I have a laptop for emails and apps.
Am I missing out?

I can officially announce the small boat crisis has finished. It's ceased. It's stopped. No more small boats.
Why?
Both the smuggling gangs and migrants are quaking in their proverbial boots at the very thought of
BRIT CARD
So they've permanently given up.
Also, the black economy has also ceased to be. Rogue employers who currently happily employ people without making sufficient checks are quaking in their proverbial boots at the very thought of

Maybe you'd really enjoy pokemon go. Who can tell.
Yes, the one was used as ID to renew my other recently.
Will feedback be built in? In other words can you speak to someone to correct data errors, or raise fraud concerns? A lot of the issues with ID systems is that the ability to contact someone promptly, and get something done promptly, is lacking.
Interesting watching a news report earlier. The reporter said
And at some point in the future things like tax information might be added.
Might? MIGHT? Ha Ha Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
