Addresses:

What previous addresses do i need to put on my credit files when putting the information in, do you still have to put addresses you have lived at if you wasn't on the electoral roll there or paid any bills there, do you only put 6 years previous?.

You don't put information on your credit file.

Your creditors, utility companies, etc. do.

No I mean when you sign up you have to put the addresses for the last 6 years I have lived at some addresses for short period of times though and wasn't on the electoral roll there or paid bills would I need to put these down on file or just addresses I've lived at for a longer period of time and was on the electoral roll at?.

To get a complete picture it is best to put all addresses you have lived at for the last 6 years.

If you had some addresses that you had no post to (e.g. didn't change your bank account etc to that new address at any point, didn't apply for any credit etc) then its unlikely to make any difference in practice.
