Change of address effect credit score and limits?

I'm in the process of moving... American Express has had 3 different address in the past 5 years and again I'm moving. Will this effect my credit score or credit limit with them or other cards for that matter?

 

Thank you and any help would be much appreciated. I'm looking to see if the postal mail does a forward but not a change of address too, just in case!

No, changing addresses will not affect anything credit wise. All that will happen is a new address will get added to your credit report. 

I think I've found the sacred map that may lead me to this garden everyone keeps talking about.

When credit reports add another address does this cause a problem with future creditors wanting to give you credit? We've purchased a medium size Yacht and of course can't have mail delivered to the Atlantic. I'm planning on opening a mail box etc for a year while traveling and moving from our home.

I have over 20 (valid) addresses across my credit reports (including 2 PO boxes) and it's been no problem.

However, applications usually do want a permanent residence listed, so that might be a problem for you.
