hello,
i wish to apply for a purchases credit card. i have an excellent credit score.
i will use the credit card checker on money saving expert, however-
i moved to ireland in may last year, have worked and opened a bank account.
meanwhile, all my banks are registered to my parents' address back home in scotland.
i need to give address history and employment, so what is the best path? slightly contradictory 'official' situation.
thanks!
neil.

The official position is that credit scores are made up, and that you should use your true address.0
