Will changing my address with my bank (for a short period of time) go on my credit file?

I'm moving house to a shared flat for 6 months before i move into my new bought house, i will need to change my banking address to my new address. I will change my electoral roll when i move to the new bought house...
Will that info (bank change of address) show on my credit file?
Thanks for your time

Yes BUT if you are talking a week or so change possibly not.
It depends when in the month you change it, as to when your account is reported on which date during that month.
For example, your account was opened and is reported on the 1st of each month.
If you changed the address on it on the 2nd of that month as long as you changed it back no later than a few days before the next cycle it's not going to be reported.

As others have stated it will go on your credit file as your bank will automatically pass this on to the CRA's. In a 6 month period your bank would have definitely reported this information0

Yes and for god's sake don't forget to mention the address on future credit applications.
I moved around a lot six to seven years ago following a very messy breakup - and found out yesterday that I've CIFAS markers against me where three different organisations thought I was committing application fraud because I listed the addresses I predominantly lived at on a couple of application forms around 2015-2016.0
