Does my address matter for Bradford and Bingley - or any savings account??

Hi!

I'm thinking of opening the fixed rate new savings bond account with bradford and bingley and it got me thinking about my banking and address.

I've lived in 3 addresses in the last couple of years and before that I was abroad.

I have always used my parents address for all of my secure paperwork (banking, driver's license etc) as not all the addresses I've been at have had secure mail.

I'm also registered to vote at my parents' place as even though I'm settled now I've always gone home for months inbetween moving around, also Iv'e never wanted to be associated with the flats I've been in as I know previous tenants at all locations have had bad debt troubles (as we've got the bailiff letters!).

Does anyone know if there is a problem for me to keep using this address (I have had every single account, ISA, savings account registered there) even though I don't really live there any more?

Also, does anyone have any reviews on the Bradford and Bingley fixed rate savings bond (the 6 month one at 6.8ish%)

Really appreciate this as I don't know if I'm right or wrong?
