Dear all
I am one of the Address proof card holder. valid up to 29.06.2013.
While, marketing Address proof card by postal dept, it was informed me, this card is, can be used for address proof for various transaction. But I am facing still same difficulty for this card is accepted by anywhere.
1. Bank ac opening / change of address.
Both govt owned banks / as well as private banks are NOT accepting for a resident proof, says that this is NOT valid proof / NOT in our list Documents
2. Appling telephone connection / mobile connection.
Both BSNL and other mobile operators like…Airtel, reliance, tata Indicom etc… NOT accepting for a resident proof, says that this is NOT valid proof / NOT in our list Documents
3. Appling Ration card – NOT accepting for a resident proof, says that this is NOT valid proof / NOT in our list Documents
4. Appling voter ID card – NOT accepting for a resident proof, says that this is NOT valid proof / NOT in our list Documents
5. Appling Driving license – NOT accepting for a resident proof, says that this is NOT valid proof / NOT in our list Documents
6.passport office also NOT accepting YOUR CARD FOR A ADDRESS PROOF…
Totally absolutely USE LESS… AND WASTE OF MONEY….
In general, NO PLACE WILL ACCETING THIS CARD FOR A VALID ADDRESS PROOF. Then what is the use of obtaining this?
I requested tamilnadu post master general to issue a circular to all the public / private Dept /govt dept especially public dealing dept to accept this card A VALID ADDRESS PROOF
but, no responce, and no use….
any one planing to apply for the same, think twice……
Thank you,
Jayaram Singh

Our government offices are all the same, no co-ordination at all. It’s been more than 45 days since I applied for this and not even the verification was done by post man. And now you also inform me that this isn’t going to help much as an address proof.
This is plain cheating of public, wrong promises and wrong expectation.

I agree with Jayaram Singh.I am not sure why Postal department has been issuing Proof of address cared without issuing a circular to all. I am also facing the same problem what Jayaram Singh stated here. No PublicGovt.Private knows about this card. No use of this card. I applied and I got this card through Tathkal scheme by spending 600/-.Now i am not seeing any use of it. It better to give a public statement by Postal department.

Post master general to take up seriously at least now to ensure that all govt. /public/private sector accept this as a valid proof. Banks have not accepted this as a proof. It is my personal experience too.
Postal notification
One of the biggest problems students and working professionals with transferable jobs face is to get an address proof. Without a proper address proof, one can’t get basic things like mobile connection, internet connection, gas connection nor can apply for passport or open up a bank account.
Keeping this in mind, Indian Postal Department is issuing photo id card with address proof through their large network of post offices. The process is very simple and straight forward
