Credit cards and mortgage application

Rollinghills

To be safe is it best not to use credit cards at all during the application process and until completion, is that what people would recommend?

I suppose if I pre-pay my credit card that would be ok (we get lots of useful points for using it)?

I'm currently in the same process applying for a mortgage. I had cleared my credit cards before starting process but I have paid the upfront solicitor fee and the mortgage survey fee using my credit card and then paid it off in the same month so I presume for me it won't matter or show up? Anyone clarify this?

Normal monthly credit card spending shouldn't be a problem.
