UK bank account number
UK Bank sort code
credit card number
I am using FTK and the only search regex options available are in US American format. Could anyone help write or give an example script?
I know certain makes of creditcards start with certain numbers, for example Visa is 4 and master card is 51-55. How do you tell if it is from the UK?
*I should also mention that the data is hidden in text files which contain lots of integers that could result in false positives being returned.
Have you looked at regexlib?

You have to look up the BIN number (now I believe more properly known as the IIN number).
There's an incomplete listing on wikipedia (shock horror)
there are (fee based) services online which hold very large databases of BIN/IIN numbers and map them to the issuing organization
as far as generating the regular expression to find them in the first place, this might help
