I try to use +addressing whenever I sign up for something new. I'd say at signup it works like 95% of the time. Plenty of forms still don't think the + is a valid thing to find in an email. I've had 3-4 retailers so far (LandsEnd was one of them I think) who originally let me setup an account with the + in it, but then when I went to log into the account after the fact, wouldn't let me in. One of them only disliked it on mobile. So there I was with a valid account I couldn't get back into with the address I used.
PITA, still not sure if its worth it.
