original credit card or bank statement - not a photocopy - he has paperless bills so does not get monthly statements
I believe that printing off an online statement is not considered a photocopy as it's actually an original. I read this somewhere a couple of years ago but can't find it now unfortunately.It's someone else's fault.0 -

If it's a bank statement then you can have them certify it in branch. Had to do that when I applied for my first mortgage.0 -
I think the card used to pay needs to be registered to the address you are redirecting from when you do it on line.
I did my mail redirect a year after I moved (I still owned the house)
I had a dormant bank account with around £10 in it but It was still registered at my old address .I transfered enough money to pay for mail redirection ,then used this account to do it online .I didnt need any other ID ."Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many"0 -
Does he need redirection if he's paperless with all the important people?0
