Declined for a Tesco Clubcard credit card

Another thing, guys:

When applying for accounts with banks I usually put my folk's address down. I rent a house at the moment and have in recent years moved about a bit. Also, as these houses are occupied with others, I prefer to have things sent to my parent's house for security reasons.

What is best practice around selecting what address for applications, in your opinion...?

It will ring fraud bells galore - one address and one address only! Have a read of this thread about N Hunter - you'll probably have warnings all over if you chop and change addresses like you suggest....

You must use your address - you don't live with your folks so don't imply you live there cos the CRA's and others will know this to be false - looks like blatant fraud! I'd decline you if you said you lived in XX address but the CRA's showed you at ZZ address....

Should I change my address with all my bank accounts to my present address, in that case, yeah...?

If everything is consistent at the one address then you're fine. Just means you can't go on the electoral register, get mobile phone contract etc at your temporary addresses incase that raises a flag.
