Once you’ve managed to get your hands on a gaff you’re proud to call home, the nitty gritty tasks take over. Jobs like telling banks and credit card companies your new address can get swept aside by small things like mortgages and removal vans.

Which is where the genius that is www.ihavemoved.co.uk can help you out. This site does the dirty work in moving, informing services like banks and phone companies that you’ve changed address.

After registering with the site just click on the companies you need to inform of the address change and all your bills and junk mail will be sent to your new abode. The site can tell all the major banks and credit cards about address changes, and can even let your electricity supplier know you’ve moved.

It doesn’t yet offer a card service for your mates – that’s still down to the snail mail. But it can tell any magazines you subscribe to your new address. So you need not miss a single edition of Caravan Magazine or Cage and Aviary Birds. Which is nice.
