I had no idea about this part of the T&Cs and my BA Exec club has always been to my U.K. address. Never changed it and have no plans too.
Had no issue getting the bonus and still get monthly avios.
Wow. Perhaps things have changed recently? My experience dates back to 2012 when I first received the card. I used my U.S. address but still had my BAEC set to use my UK address. At that time the Avios still accrued on the Chase card - including the sign up bonus - but we’re not transferred to my BA account until I changed my BAEC address to the U.S.
