Reply to comment by very_random_user in What's your opinion on renaming Plantation Street because it's racist? by [deleted]

I find that hard to believe. I've moved every 6 years, on average. I've never had a problem with the change of address. You know the US postal service will forward your mail for up to 18 months after your change-of-address?

And, of course, I actually inform my creditors when I move.

Completely different issue. In this case the old address disappears you aren't just moving around. Anyway, that was an experience I reported maybe he was unlucky. Different issue but, for instance, most curriers don't deliver at my parents main address because it's not correctly mapped on Gmaps. Small changes can make big differences.

The issue is "change of address." In both cases the address changed. The fact that one address (the old street name) doesn't exist anymore is irrelevant.

Perhaps this is an issue your friend should take up with the local postmaster. (As with your issue with carriers refusing to deliver to your parents' house.)
