    I've never been asked to prove a change of address, although I have had to prove my identity when making such a change. I've not changed my address for a few years though, so things might have changed.

    Just go in the branch and tell them the new address.

    simple as that never had a problem they don't need proof except YOUR ID but they should already have that on there system.
