I had spotted that on ADLSGuide.org.uk a little while ago and 
believe I signed up.

Could we not just change our addresses to the wrong one?

For instance, my domain is registered to an old address (I never 
got around to updating it).

Ummmmm, errrr, I just went on to check this and noted that 
another domain I had been after a couple of years ago was now 
available. So I just ordered it. Cheers, Robert !!! :)

Anyway, I was able to be billed to my actual home address, but I 
carefully entered my previous address as the registration 
address because of this very issue above.
