proof of address?

[coroc]

A CC company asked or proof of address (chase to be exact) is a cell phone bill a legit proof of address or no?

They usually want a drivers license, utility bill - because it lst the service address - you could also try car registration and/or insurance. 

A lot of people don't even have landlines anymore so they may be ok with a cell bill - years ago the answer was no. 

YMMV

Even if it's paperless, I don't see why they wouldn't accept a statement that you printed out.

Well they SAY they cant accept CC bills for proof of address. That's wat i have for paperless bills

My DD doesn't have utilities in her name either - still lives at home- that's why I suggested the DL, car registration etc.  I do not receive paper bills either but I can still view statements online and print your statement which has the address.

Is your cell bill paperless? What about any medical bills, insurance? Does your license not show your current address?

Do you rent? Is your name on the lease? I think that would be sufficient proof.

Yea name is on lease. I just moved here so all my stuff shows my previous address i am gonna try the lease or just go update my address asap to get sumthing for proof

I think you could also ask Chase if you can go into the branch and show a banker your lease, that way they could see that your the actually person on your ID as well, that is if you have a Chase branch near you, but I would first talk to Chase on the phone and ask if they do that
