OVH Validation

  1. My passport expired many years ago when I was underage. (now I'm 20). Is it going to be a problem?
  2. I can send them my ID / Health card / debit card pictures. Will it be enough?
  3. Bought VPS 30 minutes ago, how long it usually takes?

Thanks

    I had many servers there when I was under 18. Never needed verification.

    Did you buy it from OVH.ie or OVH.us?

    Just send passport and proof of address, phone bill in your name works.

    They accepted my expired passport when I did this, you will be fine.

    And what country are you from?

    I always wondered how this works. I myself don't have a single bill on paper - not for phone, not for electricity, not for water and not for anything else. I pay everything online and receive all my bills electronically.

    Doesn't change the fact that the bills are in your name and that you have to pay them, whether it's a PDF or a piece of paper.

    So what do i send then? A screenshot of a website where my bill is displayed? I don't think my address is in that screenshot anyway.

    If you get a .pdf, print it off then re-scan it - works every time for me!

    You need to wait a few days for a reply.

    Their validation process is kind of slow.

    I printed out a bank statement from my online banking and then scanned so it looked like it came in the mail, OVH accepted it.
