TLDR : Answer Summary

The acceptable proof of residence for a Non-O visa application includes documents like a UK driving license, a council tax bill, or a bank statement, as long as they display your name and address. Users have reported that even if mistakes are made in submissions, the Thai authorities are generally responsive and will request any additional documents via email. If you don't have a UK driver's license or utility bills, having a UK bank statement might still be a viable option.

What if you don't have a UK driver's license and are living with family, so no bills, but have a UK bank account. Just a what if, because unlike the U S., there is no ID card with your address on it in the UK.

I sent them copy of driving license, but don’t worry if you make any mistakes, they will email you and tell you exactly what they want, I think they emailed me a couple of times asking for this document or that document, it’s quite friendly

Any of those will work as long as they have your name and address.
