I need a wallet with a static bitcoin address

[dmarks2061]

I need a wallet with a static bitcoin address so I can have an address at which to receive bitcoins. My Jaxx wallet creates dynamic addys that always change and Abra doesn't want to play nice with my bank. I have a place that will send me bitcoins, but I need to enter the address in their configuration so they can send bitcoins to me regularly. Does anyone have any suggestions for a solution? Thanks.

Well you have an easy problem to solve.

Any wallet out there (Core wallet, Electrum etc...) can do what you want. Wallet addresses don't change as long as you don't change it manually or your PC gets formatted or you delete the wallet. So if you want it to stay same, just don't touch it.

And more on point: just keep re-using the same address. You do not have to always generate a new address.

I generate my (paper) addresses offline and then put them in manually into any wallet app I want to use - Currently I use Mycelium.

One caveat, make sure you NEVER lose that piece of paper with your private key on it!  Also, I don't put the private key in unless I'm about to transfer some coin out, then I delete the private key keeping the public key in the app so it's a "watch only" and if anything happens to my phone/app/etc nobody gets my coin!

Did I mention to never lose your address info if you do this?

There is nothing preventing you from re-using any of the addresses that Jaxx generates for you.

While it is true that Jaxx (and most of HD wallets) will automatically generate a new address when the previous one receives a payment, the previous address doesn't disappear or stop working. You can continue to receive payments to it. This is (should be?) true of pretty much all wallets.

Note: As an aside, generally speaking, address re-use is not recommended if you care at all about maintaining the pseudo-anonymity of Bitcoin.
