proof of address

I've recently (1 month ago) sold my house and moved back in with my parents. The house I was buying fell through, so I'm likely to be here for a couple of months more at least. My old mortgage will expire before I have chance to port it unfortunately, but this gives me a chance to get a better deal with another bank.
My only concern is how do you prove the address, when all the utility bills are in my parents names? I'm probably over thinking it as I've already transferred everything possible to my parents address e.g electoral roll, driving licence, bank account etc I've lived here before (4 years ago) so they'll be a record somewhere on the credit scorers.
Anything else I can do?

Just found some previous posts that are similar and have eased my worries. I guess this type of thing is pretty common.0

Sorry to hear about your purchase falling through!
If you've changed the address with your bank you'll be able to use a recent bank statement as ID.I am a Mortgage BrokerYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Broker, so you need to take my word for it.
