When I run the query below I get the error single row subquery returns more than one row. I tried running the subquery individually and I get one row back... please help as I think from starring at the query and data for too long now and I am stuck in this one solution. I appreciate your recommendations for solutions already.

You do realize that since you're using the exact same set of table aliases (a, b and c) in both sub-querys AND the outer query you have basically got NO links between the sub-querys and the outer query?

Also can you please read the orafaq forum guide and learn how to use code tags and write a test case.

I didn't had any issue running this sql.
with dsc_user as
(
 select 'u140449132' id , 'Test' first_name,  'Tester' last_name , 'Tester@phone.com' email, sysdate registration_date from dual
),
dsc_user_Address as
(
 select 'u140449132' id,  'cti400587424' shipping_addr_id , 'cti400587423' billing_addr_id from dual
),
dsc_contact_info as
(
 select 'cti400587424' id, 'Test' first_name,  'Tester' last_name,  120 address1,  'Carter Street' Address2, 'Ahoskie' city, 'NC' state,  27858 zip, 'US' country from dual union all
select 'cti400587423','Test','Tester',222, 'Fulton Ave Suite', '20 Greensboro', 'NC', 28214, 'US' from dual
)
select a.first_name, a.last_name, a.email, a.registration_date,
(select c.address1||' '||c.address2||' '||c.city||' '||c.state 
from dsc_contact_info c,
dsc_user_address b,
dsc_user a
where b.billing_addr_id = c.id
and a.id = b.id )"Billing Address",
(select c.address1||c.address2||' '||c.city||' '||c.state 
from dsc_contact_info c,
dsc_user_address b,
dsc_user a
where b.shipping_addr_id = c.id
and a.id=b.id)"Shipping Address"
from dsc_user a,
dsc_user_address b,
dsc_contact_info c
where a.id = b.id
and a.email = 'tester@phone.com'
and c.id = b.billing_addr_id
or c.id = b.shipping_addr_id

Execute this query, then you'll understand!

select a.first_name,a.last_name,a.email,a.registration_date,(
		select count(*)
		from dsc_contact_info c,
		dsc_user_address b,
		dsc_user a
		where b.billing_addr_id = c.id
			and a.id = b.id 
	)"Billing Address",(
		select count(*)
		from dsc_contact_info c,
		dsc_user_address b,
		dsc_user a
		where b.shipping_addr_id = c.id
			and a.id=b.id
	)"Shipping Address"
from dsc_user a,
	dsc_user_address b,
	dsc_contact_info c
where a.id = b.id
	and a.email = 'tester@phone.com'
	and c.id = b.billing_addr_id
	or c.id = b.shipping_addr_id


Anyway I've not idea of what're trying to get but in my opinion you've developed a wrong and buggy query that doesn't do what you may except from it.
