CC application/about to move home

Hi
I have been needing to apply for a new credit card for a little while but have not as I was in the process of applying for a mortgage.
My mortgage final offer should go through end of this week and all being well I should complete on my flat in next 2 to 3 weeks.

I was planning on applying for the credit card on day of completion more or less...

would it be ok to put on application the address I am currently living at? technically I'd still be resident at that address so it would not be giving incorrect information, although I would know to be changing address the next day...

thanks

    I imagine the card and pin (if you're accepted) would be sent to your old address. If that's an address you'll still have access to, all fine, if not, you'll end up in a pickle.

    You must provide your current address at time of application.

    Any changes that then occur from that date must also be advised in a timely manner.

    Btw, you'll have a million and 1 things to do come completion day, so think on...
