Mortgages - moving current account

Having suffered the 2nd internet bank account fraud in 12 months on my HSBC account and received pretty shoddy service I am considering moving current account.
BUT my husand and I are saving with a view to buying a house towards the end of the year (with 20% deposit) and I am concerned that moving accounts now may have an adverse effect on my credit rating.
We have been very careful to make sure we are on the elctoral roll, we have completely clean credit histories and both have stable jobs.

Does anyone know how much of a risk, if any, moving my main account will be in terms of securing a mortgage?
Thanks
