In summary: Only the bank can confirm whether the exact address is acceptable for the exact person, entity and account.
Why the mailbox provider cannot answer this for you
Address acceptance for opening or maintaining a bank account is determined entirely by the bank's own compliance policies, not by the mailbox provider's marketing claims -- a provider stating an address is accepted by major banks is not the same as your specific bank confirming it for your specific application.
What banks are actually checking
Financial institutions generally distinguish between a residential address, a mailing address and a business operating address, and Know Your Customer identity-verification rules can require documentation the mailbox service does not provide, such as separate proof of physical residence.
The safest sequence
Contact the bank directly before subscribing to any mailbox plan for this purpose, ask specifically whether a commercial mail-receiving agency address is acceptable for the account type you want, and get that answer in writing or from an official channel rather than relying on either the bank's general marketing or the mailbox provider's claims.
- Platform marketing is not bank approval.
- Residential, operating and mailing addresses may be treated differently.
