They get a letter of authority allowing them to deal with one specific financial group - that might work as it's not anything unusual now due to the number of CMCs but that again relies on a customer getting the correspondence from the bank to be able to sign it off. She could always request the communication go by email or get a PO boxSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Your friend simply needs an arrangement to collect her mail at a nominated Post Office.
