I applied for a credit card online and got a letter asking for a gas, electric, or water bill.?

Question

The problem is that I am living in my parent's home and there are no bills under my name. What can I do?

Answer 1

Call the company and talk to a human.  Explain your situation.  Hopefully you have a job and will be paying the bill.

Answer 2

the reason for them asking this question of you is they are verifying your address and therefore your honesty in the rest of the info provided in the application. if your parents have the same last name see if there is not a way they will accept that as verification...or perhaps a bank statement with your address and name...but call and explain your situation, it is easily solvable...good luck!
