UK Post Box Scan my post

[chrisstjamesuk]

Hello, is it possible to use a service like UK Post Box or Scan my post to get an address to give to my creditors? I am just about to finish my tenancy agreement in my current house and am about to go travelling. So rather than giving my creditors my parents address (where I will be on elec roll etc) and getting them to read scan my mail, tell me about anything important is it ok to use this sort of service so I can login from overseas and read any mail?? Basically will creditors be ok with this, I am assuming it will go on my credit file as a "linked" address? Thanks. Chris.

I don't think I know of a service like that (open and scan). You can however hire an 'accommodation address' and receive your post there. You could then get it forwarded to other addresses you are at at regular intervals. A legit accommodation address needs to be linked to a real address but you don't need to give it out.

Hi

Welcome to The Consumer Action Group.

 

 

I am just letting you know that as you haven't had any replies to your post yet, it might be better if you post your message again in an appropriate sub-forum. You will get lots of help there.

 

Also take some time to read around the forum and get used to the layout. It is a big forum and takes a lot of getting used to.

 

 

Once you start to find your way, you will soon realise that it is fairly easy to get round and to get the help you need.

 

It can be bit confusing at first.

myUKpost.com offer a better service and alot cheaper, but most importantly they dont store your mail on their server, it is sent direct to your email account.

http://www.myUKPost.com offer a real UK address, so people can use it for their real address, and keep/maintain their credit score....

 

so you dont need an accommodation address, just a myukpost address
