    "Need to change your address?
    Unfortunately, you can't update your postal address in Online Banking yet. Please pay us a visit in branch and be sure to bring your Barclays debit card (you'll be asked to enter your PIN for security reasons) and either a full passport, EU photocard driving licence or EU national ID card with you. Or if you're registered for Telephone Banking, you can call us on 08457 555555 to update your address. To maintain a quality service, we may monitor and record phone calls. Visit Barclays.co.uk/callcharges for call charges information"

    ......But if you click through to "apply for a barclaycard" while logged on you may find out what address they hold as the form is prefilled ;)

    "Your personal data such as name and address will be used to pre-fill parts of the application form. You are able to change this information; however, any changes you make will not be reflected back to your online bank account.
    On completion of the application, you must close down the page to prevent other users accessing your personal details. If you choose not to continue with the application, you must close down any pages, including this one, to protect your security information."

    The reason your statements are being sent to your old address is here

    My understanding of Barclays is that they need to change the residential address and correspondence address separately and one of these involves a pop up box which sometimes closes without submitting

    So they may have your residential address recorded correctly and not the correspondence address

    Could it be that the mailings sent to your old address are pre-prepared mailshots?

    as previously stated Barclays hold your address in two places- "residential address" and "correspondence address"

    They do not appear to have updated both in your case
