Ok so I'm guessing my other accounts got flagged for using the same name and address on multiple accounts. Is it ok to use the same address as I did with those other accounts but use a different name?

Yes it is okay to use same name and address on multiple accounts. I do it and receive my prizes.

A lot of people say I will get flagged. I'm thinking they just started flagging for same name and address on multiple accounts. When was the last time this worked for you?

They say don't do it, otherwise you will get flagged. Bing states, 1 prize per account per household. Example: I don't see how ordering a controller on 1 account with your name and address can work if you order the same controller on a different account with the same name and address you used to order the first controller. I don't know why they don't flag for this.

As long as its not the same prize you should be fine.

That's what I was trying to say. Thanks!

Prior to June 2009 you could order with many, many, many accounts to the same name/address... As long as they were all different prizes.

That is why you get people claiming it is possible... Even I used to do it.

However, they changed something for orders placed after June 30... And since then NONE of the prizes ordered with accounts that were active on the same days have shipped to the same name/address.

The ToS specifically states that you cannot use more than one Live account to avoid the ticket limit. So, by bot'ing multiple accounts and ordering to the same name/address you are violating that rule, and they can flag your accounts for that. How exactly they are tracking/detecting this is not known.

I do know, however, that you can still have multiple accounts ship to the same name/address, under certain specific conditions.

Example A: create new account, bot a couple days, order prize, retire account (i.e. stop botting), wait a couple days, create new account, bot a couple days, order prize to same name/address. Both prizes shipped. So, it is still possible to have multiple accounts ship to the same address, just not actively gaining tickets on the same day?

Example B: recently tested 2 accounts that were active at the same time, but shipped to different first name and same address. Both prizes were received. So, it is still possible for different people at the same address to have accounts...

Keep in mind that both of these tests ordered different prizes, because the 1-each-per-address still applies, even with multiple accounts and different names.

I would suggest you find other addresses to ship to if you can. One account per address is probably the safest way to get your prizes these days. However, if that is not possible, then using different names may work.

Just keep in mind that you will not be able to re-order any of the prizes you ordered on your presumed flagged accounts to that same address, since those count towards the 1-each-per-address, even if they didn't ship.

Well explained! + Rep!
