    Default Doing business as name & po box question

    I have spent hours reading through these threads. I want to know how many of you have actually registered a doing business as name & if so is it worth it? I would like to get a po box since I get paid in gifts a lot and I just found out that even though my gifts were sold by amazon the guy called me by my full REAL name cus it showed him! I do not think that the post office would release big boxes to me that don't fit in my box if I have the name kandi Cumdrops lol. Do I have to show I'd to get my packages? But if iget a doing business as name then I can have a po box registered with that name correct?

    Sorry hun but i can only answer the name on box question. I used a UPS store to get my gifts. I let them know up front that all I would be getting would be packages. I had to register w/ my real name but i told the guy that everybody knows me by my nick name and thats the name that would be used on the packages. So my cam name was also a name that could be used as a real first name like urs and then made up a fake middle name and it worked. So at times if new ppl worked there I'd show I.D. Hope I'm making sense to you. I can't seem to get my words out right today lol

    I'd say getting a PO box is worth it if you are going to get a business license- otherwise if they know your business name they can find your address. PO Box would also be worth it if you plan on getting gifts. Does your amazon account have your name on it? They could easily find that out- I put my cam name but I don't have explicit words in it.

    just to let you know, po boxes are more for convenience than privacy. it is possible to make a request of the post office to release the name and address of the owner.

    Well I am getting a po box anyway because I have problems with my mailman putting stuff in the wrong boxes and it has caused HUGE problems for me because something very important did not get to me a few times back to back. But I called them & told them I was using a modeling name and she explained the same thing you did. Thanks. Only reason I even thought about the doing business as thing was to use the po box but now I see it is not necessary. And yes I had my real name cus it was being sent to my grandmas house lol. I did not trust having it sent to where I lived.

    I've been told if you get a PO Box at a mail STORE as opposed to at the post office- they do not have to give your real name out (you can request they don't), and the address can look like a regular street address as opposed to a PO box number.
