I applied for a Barclays world master card and shortly after I received a email stating that it was approved and the card was on the way. I also applied for XXXX more Barclays credit cards within a two day period.shortly after applying for the latter XXXX cards. I later received a email stating that I need to call in and verify information associated with my credit card application. When I called in to speak with the rep he stated that " the system could n't pull up any public database question and that I needed to send in a copy of my drivers license, ssn card, and a current utility bill. 

The strange thing is when I logged in to the online account I created for the Barclay world master card database question popped right up with no issues. I answered all the and passed the identity verification. When I received my Barclays world master card in the mail and attempted to activate it. the card it was blocked and It prompted me to call in and speak to a representative. when I spoke to the representative he asked me " verify my identity again. '' I again answered all of the question and rep stated he said congratulation your card is approved, a few mins later I attempted to make a purchase online only to find out that my purchase was declined so I had to call back in a 3rd time and they stated that i needed to send in '' ID ''. Are you serious??? according to the system I passed identity verification twice. what is the need of sending in my sensitive personal information that will pass threw god know who 's hands. I got approved for XXXX XXXX credit cards the same weekend with a different bank and have already received the cards with no issues. so at this point I would like to just close the account and have the trade line removed from my report. barclay is a total joke and I do n't want any of there cards ever in life.
