You could use a Data Validation List in a cell drop-down for the customer
names and VLOOKUP to return the address and phone number.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for for info and methods.

http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlDataVal01.html for DV

http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlFunctions02.html for VLOOKUP

However, DV drop-downs are not capable of providing autocomplete.

For workaround using a combo-box see.
