Change of address during naturalisation - fee payment

Hello,
I have a question about change of address during the naturalisation process. I will be moving, so I will of course update my contact address using this link: https://eforms.homeoffice.gov.uk/outrea ... pdate.ofml. After I move, I will need to change my address with my bank, so my question is what I should do if the AN payment has not been processed at that point. The fees form (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... 8_v0_3.pdf) obviously asks for address etc for the bank account. If this is different to the new address, will the payment not go through? Is there a way to change this? Any experience with this would be very helpful.
Thanks, GB

Pay by cheque instead. Problem solved!

I agree, and I was going to suggest the same before I realised this might not be convenient or even possible for some people. I for example have never had a cheque book or written a cheque :o

In such case, seek permission from friend / relative to use his / her card details and fill in the details of such person in the "Fee refund" section.

Or, apply after you have changed address and have had the bank records updated.

Thanks for your replies. I should have clarified that I have applied already, and was looking for anyone who had been in a similar situation.
