Applied for Auto Refi and Credit Card both Instant Approved. Went for memebership and because my license is 2 years old they need a utility bill in my name I pay no utilities. I feel like it was a waste of an HP. I will just stick with my Navy FCU accounts.
They all have their little pecadillos. Lenders seem to have a hard time understanding that some peoples' utilities are included in their rent. I had that issue in the condo we lived in before we bought our house.

FCC claissified Internet as a utility - do you have a cell phone bill in your name? That should be enough.
+1 Absolutely.
Don't give up that easily, OP!
Have given them sprint phone bill , ID, SSN card and even my 401K statement from Merrill Lynch and none of that was good enough

Social Security Card is a legal GOVERNMENT issued form of identification. They will pretend as if they can't take it as ID but they can.
Doesn't have to be a utility bill, can be any bill. School Tuition, Cable, Phone etc.
Why not just go renew your License?
Seems like a waste when you can just renew the license right? They can't deny a non expired license. I hope that's not what you're saying.
SSA card isn't accepted many places anymore, much to my chagrin. Nothing can be done about that either.
OP: ask them what they will accept, and it's generally really easy to go get another state ID dated basially today if the 2 year old one isn't acceptable. I wouldn't give up yet, doesn't have to be a drivers license, or just go "lose" your current one.
After my recent ID issues I'd simply suggest everyone go get a passport anyway.
