Sorry, but they would BAN that address. It would do no good to switch to a relative at the same address. Yep ban revenue. I'm sure once a lot of people get banned and it actually starts to affect the numbers; ISP's will re-evaluate if they are doing the "right" thing or not. lol |

yes they can mark an address as "non-servicable" and not allow services to be restarted unless someone goes to service center with a lease agreement proving you are not former resident. Or paperwork proving you are owner and not former tenant. People pull the same thing as suggested by OP when they are disconnected for non-pay. |

I think the ISPs are a little smarter than you think. |

Problem solved. What do you think of that?

You can't ban an address. What happens if the property sells? See, unless they are going to cross reference the service against owner of the property, then this idea of switching names would work. However, if the ISPS wish to incur the cost of acquiring public records and checking things out, then that would be different. Still, my guess a simple name change would suffice most times. Odds are, the ISP wouldn't care as they are not going to be keen on turning down money from their customers. After all, this wasn't their idea to begin with. |

Time for ISPs to demand SSNs to run credit checks/banned internet users list checks. You will run out of identities. We can also cross reference any dependents on your IRS, and anyone else at the address through USPS secret database of the names that goto each address and Census and DMV records. If you try suite/apt fudging, won't work because we will cross reference your Occupancy permit. Also the NSA can provide a list of all the emails, forum logins, and user names and screen names you use online, if you were just a guest at that house, you can write an appeal and show up infront of an Administrative Law Judge to get yourself off the blocklist. Don't you love databases?  |
