Exchange to completion - Mortage Q

in Mortgages & endowments
Will the bank do another credit check on me between exchange and completion? Basically I want to put a few bits on my CC for the move but worried in case it will mess anything up, same for my overdraft too?

Can anything else go wrong?


Any help/advise will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

    My funds were drawn on 31 October 2013, and we completed on 1 November 2013. We were credit checked again on 28 November. They must do so before they release the funds by BACS.

    This doesn't make sense. Your credit check was nearly a month after completion ...
