online credit card application intercepted?

molly1706

I applied for a barclaycard online two weeks ago and got a message as I sent the application along the lines of:

the recipient address is different, it's possible though unlikely that your mail may be intercpted do you still want to send.

Stupidly, with hindsight I sent the application.
I have heard nothing from barclaycard and am getting very worried that all personal, bank address details have been intercepted.

Has this happened to anyone else? Is there anything I can do?

I have also just found out that barclaycard gives an instant online decision now I'm very worried, where have all my details gone?

I'd ring them up and tell them exactly what happened it may be nothing to worry about, but it also may be !!. Sounds like to me that there is a problem with the security certificate to do with their website..

That message would suggest you've asked for the card to be sent to an address that's different from the address you gave as your own.

It could be that you mispelt a word in the address or that you did want it to go to another address.

They are warning you that when they send you the card, if it doesn't go to your home address someone else may open it first. They are not saying that anything you sent online has been intercepted.

As the other poster says, if you are still concerned just call them.
