Multiple current accounts - credit rating?

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post but I'm thinking of opening a flex-direct and santander 123 current account, to make use of the good interest rates.
I already have a Natwest current account. I want to apply for a mortgage (as a FTB) this time next year. Will it affect my credit rating?
Thanks.

Doubt it, as long as you keep all your accounts free from defaults.0

Ditch the Natwest account. Then you'll just have two, which certainly won't have any negative impact.0

i have asked this before. i currently have 8 current accounts. a friend of mine has 24. i am assured that it makes no difference.0

Never let the perfume of the premium overpower the odour of the risk0
