Hey - this is really good information since I will probably be spending over 1k for a few characters for my friends to play with me. After reading the OP, can you confirm what i'm interpreting below?

1) buy account, update information with your real address
2) wait 30 days for information to update
3) request new recovery key (this may take a couple of weeks)?
4) at this point, any previously ordered recovery keys are still valid for 6months, so we are not safe until 6 months then the account is ours permanently?

so if initial exchange of funds and account information goes smoothly, how can ppl leave a positive feedback/confirmation of success before 6 months? appreciate your help! will save me money and/or give me the confidence i need to how i approach my buying
