UK Address

[Johnnytrader]

Hello everyone!

I have a project on UK which is on standby because I need an utility bill with my name on it from the UK. I can rent a room for a couple of months at most. I'm European by the way.
Another thing I will need is a home phone number which can redirect the calls to my cellphone.
Is there anyone who can help me with that? If so send me a private message please or reply to this post.

Regards

You can set up a business in the uk without either of these items. You would only need a uk address and utility bill if you want to open a UK bank account.

Why not just use a bank account in your home country?

We offer virtual office services. See my signature.

What we don't offer direct is a bank account; these are in the gift of the bank: https://www.registeredaddress.co.uk/blog/how-non-residents-can-get-a-uk-bank-account/

adamchy do I get any proof of address that I can use?

 

[TODonnell]

If who you're dealing with requires a proof of address that implies residency at our address, then no.

Our clients do use our addresses for their correspondence with banks, for example, but I think the bank will also be interested in where you live.

We can send correspondence that you are our customer (we call it a 'virtual office inauguration certificate' which is one of the items here: https://www.registeredaddress.co.uk/registrationoptions)

I'm European by the way.

Are you resident in an EU country?

Yes I live in Portugal

It's difficult to advise you 'JohnnyT' when you provide only a short sentence in response. And provide no context to your questions.

So in short your project in the UK wouldn't be on hold because you need a UK utility bill. You don't need a utility bill to set up a company. Nor do you need a UK home number.

If you actually provide an overview on what you want to do then people can try and help.

Ok I'll try to explain myself better.
My project consists on data analysis and statistics on odds of sports events. I'm a programmer of software. I have this project with 3 partners.
The thing is, the legislation of betting and exchange in our country is on standby and we cannot retrieve data or bet on anything online. So to bypass this situation we need to change our address to UK.
The online exchangers requires a proof of address (unity bill or something official) and a home phone number to call to verify the information.
And that's why I asked for these on my first post.

To have proof of a home address and number in the UK as you say you would need to have one of the directors move here or have a UK based director.

There are also laws in the UK that governing betting http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/Gambling-sectors/Online/Remote.aspx

Have you checked these requirements?

 

[Johnnytrader]

I am aware of the law in UK.
That is why I am considering renting a room to get a proof of address

Hi, just sent you a PM.

Ok I got the phone number problem figured out. The next question is a proof of address. I can get a mobile bill sent to an UK address. That's the best I could think of. Any other ideas?
