i have a question about ordering online, for amazon.com, if i ordered something on it (starcraft 2), but made it ship to a different address than what it was on my credit card, what is the billing address?

will that mean the address on my credit card will receive the bill, instead of the place where i wanted the order to be shipped (at college)

if so, can i somehow recieve the bill in college, instead of at home?

The billing address is the address your credit card is attached to.

The charge will be billed to your credit card, not the address on it. The billing address is more for identification purposes, unless you pay off your card charges via mail-in check every month.

The only way to match the billing and shipping address is to either a) change your information with your credit card company so that your card is attached to your shipping address, or b) get a new card with your shipping address.

you have to talk to your bank and have your address changed to the college. the address on your card is tied to the address you put on there before.

but yes it will bill the address for the billing address and ship to the shipping address. regardless you should receive a receipt in your package so it shouldn't be any issue if you're keeping track of your ledger.

so that means my billing address will not recieve a "bill" nor any notification, and the price will be automatically deducted from my checking account?

You won't get a bill mailed to the "Billing Address".

You will get a charge on your normal credit card bill, as well as a reciept that will be sent to the "Shipping Address".

If you're charging the purchase to a credit card it won't be deducted from your chequing account.

When charging a debit/credit card you receive the statement/bill to the address where the credit/debit card is registered under. You'll have to let the credit/debit people know you want the statement/bill sent to your new address if you don't want it mailed to your home. You can even go to your local post office and put in a change of address so you can start receiving your mail at your new college address if needed.

Correct if its a bank issued debit/credit card. It will show up on your monthly statement when mailed to you for that month.

Unless you have the bank or credit company your card is attached to regularly send your monthly expenses in paper to you, no, your billing address won't get any notification. Most banks are trying to switch to completely paperless banking, so I think at this point, you have to actually ask your bank specifically to send you monthly bills and statements through the mail.

It all depends on how you have it set up, so look into it, but your billing address shouldn't receive anything by mail. The only thing I can think of is if it's your first purchase with the card, then maybe, or if the credit company for whatever reason thinks its an unusual expenditure and decides to alert you due to possible fraud. That shouldn't happen, though.

Wait let me guess you're ordering SC2 and you don't want a bill because your extremely Asian parents don't want you playing something that will make your marks go down?

You don't even need to guess.

The easiest way to figure this out, do you pay for your credit card bills or do your parents get the bill?

So perceptive! If you don't want a bill to arrive at your billing address can't you buy one of those pre-paid debit cards?

Well...if your parents' address is the card's address, as we mentioned before, they may still end up getting a monthly statement. If your card's company is a major one, just double check that your account paperless.
