Remortgaging and changing banks

mustang1

I'm due to complete my remortgage with Woolwich at the beginning of next month. I really want to change my main bank account and am waiting for my First Direct application form after a referral on these boards.

I'm just after some advice on timing and credit checks on remortgaging and opening a bank account. When will each bank credit check and will it be a problem if I do them both now?

Thanks
