in Credit cards
Looking at applying for a new CC for cashback

I have recently moved and i was wondering what address you have to use to apply with?

Is it the electoral roll?

If i got this changed this week would it look to the credit company that i have just moved?

    They would expect you to provide the address at which you currently live.

    I have no idea how the CC company would regard it if this address is different from the one registered on the Electoral Roll nor what they would think if you changed the ER address in the recent past.
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.
