Can someone please confirm what the most up-to-date address is for sending a DSAR in relation to a Barclays Bank account and a Barclaycard?

We did complete the online request form on their website over a fortnight ago - should we have received an acknowledgement of some sort, and a request for the obligatory £10 or do we just wait the 40 days?

Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm assuming you used the site below:

    https://www.apply.barclays.co.uk/forms/subject-access-request?execution=e1s1

    If so it clearly states
    The fee for submitting a Subject Access Request is £10 and you can pay by cheque or postal order. After you submit your request, we’ll get in touch using the contact details you’ve provided to let you know where to send your payment.

    If you wish to write, the address is below

    The Data Protection Team
    Block 12
    Barclays Bank PLC
    Radbroke Hall
    Knutsford
    Cheshire
    WA16 9EU

    Cheque payable to Barclays Bank Plc

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    Yes, we did use that site. Our concern is that we have heard nothing since submitting the form some weeks ago. Is this normal? Should we be a bit more patient?

    Pick up a phone and ring them, seriously, it's the only way you will find out.

    They actually have 40 days to respond to a DSAR based on the ICO guidelines but if you haven't sent them a cheque there is no reason for them to start unless they're willing to do it free

    I also used that website request form last September, then November, no response. Sent a written DSAR mid December, still no response.

    User Jimmy2007 has not logged onto the site since this post in 2017, how he got on with it is irrelevant to you. If you wish to do a SAR to Barclays, just send it, note now you no longer have to pay
