Yes, I just had to go to HMRC or Companies House and grab either one (they're not 'in emails').

Here's the VAT certificate.

@iteles thank you for getting that info from Companies House. None of the data matches the current info for the company. specifically the address and email are not correct so this will not help us with our application.

Is there a way to update the details? 🤞🏼

Both the certificate of incorporation and the VAT regsitration certificate are snapshots of a moment in time - they are created once (on incorporation and on registering for VAT) and never altered again. They're more of an ID than a proof of address and these (address and email).

All this to say that it actually shouldn't make a difference as these are expected to change over time.

If it helps, you can also add this document which is from our Comapnjes House filing history of the latest change in address (shows the address on the bay registration form being changed to current one): https://t.ly/EbdfZ

I totally get that these are a "snapshot" of the data at-the-time. 👍
Just that it's not going to help us with our verification because we no longer have access to that email address if they ask us to verify it ... 🙃

Right. I have obtained our certificate of incorporation which doesn't include this kind of info and emailed it to you.

Cheers. Will later need access to Google Cloud Console so we can create a service account and associate it with the Google Play console so we can automate publishing with GH actions. 👌
