Implications of using a relatives address as my CC correspondence address.

I have recently moved to Italy and I'm changing all my correspondence addresses.
However, at least one credit card company I am with won't allow me to have a postal address in Italy. Therefore, I was wondering if I would be safe to use a relatives address in the UK as my new address/collection point without effecting their credit rating etc etc.
I should point out that the cards I have are used once in a blue moon, if at all, and are all at zero.
Cheers.

    People rather than addresses are credit rated now so there should be no implication for your relatives.
    However, if they arec oncerned then it may be sensible for them to get a copy of their credit records from time to time to check all is well
  • Cheers for the info.
