Switch current account before remortgage application

Options
Is it a financial mistake to switch current account just days before applying for remortgage?

I will have of-course downloaded my last 6 months bank statements from old bank account before applying for the switch.

    I know someone who wouldn't change their energy provider in the year before applying for a re-mortgage, which I thought was particularly cautious.

    Maybe wait until the house purchase has gone through before applying for an overdraft.

    It’s an unnecessary potential complication.
