House insurance

Hi
I had a buildings insurance policy with Admiral. Since I took it out last year I have moved bank accounts, and didn't think to change my details with them (expecting to do a comparison and shop about, but I missed the boat). A couple of months ago I took out new car insurance with Admiral too and my partner has stuck the Admiral letters in the 'financial stuff' box without opening them. It turns out my policy didn't renew as the payment was refused by my old bank. Admiral are now pursuing me for a month's dues plus a £40 administration fee and have instructed their own in-house collection team to pursue this 'debt'. Will this have any impact on my credit file?
Cheers
