Click on the search box and search for > 'confirmed address'. That wasn't as easy as it sounds - there isn't a Search box on the main screen, you have to go into Help... > Under Profile, Street Address there is also an "Add Address" button. Yes, but I have already added the addresses of my friends in the USA, but none of them are confirmed - there seems to be no way to get them confirmed, either. In the Help area they say: "A confirmed address is an address that has been reviewed by PayPal and found to be safe based on information related to the address. For example, a credit card billing address is confirmed because PayPal can check that the address is the same as the address on file at the credit card company." Most UK credit card issuers won't confirm cardholders' addresses, so I suspect that's where it all stops for me! The weird thing is that they say you can make your eBay address the same as a confirmed PayPal address, but not the other way round. Ah well...
