= Ensuring a successful address validation =

Resellers should ensure that the address provided is the Registrantâs current Residential address (e.g. the one that appears on utility bills) and that all names and addresses are spelled correctly to minimize the possibility of failed validation requests.


The following sources are used to populate the database. As long as the address provided matches the one listed in one of these services, the check should pass without problems:

* Electoral Roll (Historical)
* Credit Bureau Commercial
* Credit Bureau Public Record
* National Tenancy Database
* Equifax Phone Directory
* Phone Directory

Please note that the check performed on the address is not a credit check. Only the Credit Header is checked to match the Name & Address against the file.

In case automated address validation should fail, Resellers can contact support providing proof that the address listed in the validation request is a 1:1 match to the Customerâs residential address. A copy of a utility bill or other document confirming the address should be provided, and the address listed on it MUST match exactly the one provided in the Validation request.
