Check with your Service Advice people - below is the official line and a link to the MOD article:

• When you apply for credit, explain any special circumstances upfront to the lender, particularly if your credit report does not include Electoral Roll information in your name at your current address (where you are living now), before filling in an application form. Offer other proofs of name and address. A letter from your Commanding Officer (CO) will also help explain and verify your circumstances to the lender.

• If a lender refuses your application for credit, you can always appeal against the decision and provide evidence to support your case. If the lender used credit scoring to assess your application; you have a legal right to ask for your application to be reconsidered and manually assessed (i.e. looked at by a person).

You can get a Free (Call Credit) Credit Report from clicking the link on this site www.freeidprotection.co.uk Be interesting to see if this works with a BPFO Address.

Hope this helps.
