Barclays PLC Credit card department,
BarclayCard US is providing a concerning revelation on behalf of credit decisions requested. Based on previous inquiries and correspondence which they furnish through email AND vocally over the phone, they still send correspondence with secure information through the mail, when there is no need to do so in cases where - copy of correspondence has been received either electronically or vocally over a phone line where they obtain permission via secure information handled by the receiving end of the phone line. This is a - - concern due to how prevalent " Hacking '' is these days. I am requesting a full investigation of this in addition to sequestered forms that are improperly sent based on the above analysis. Credit Card companies should be fully cooperative with modern technology and provide full disclosure regarding Credit Inquiry decisions and should only offer - form of a decision for delivery, be it electronically, vocally, or through the mail. While mail is to be considered Secure, Credit Card companies should know better than to put Any form of identification that tags a partial Credit Card #, SSN, or Tax ID where unknowns are able to Steal, or mishandle the documentation should it fall into the wrong hands. I 'm pleading that this matter be taken seriously, as if the tables were reversed, I 'm sure the affected would have the same opinion. Nobody deserves to have their information stolen. If Credit Agencies would take the proper precautions in securing information, perhaps this would become less of an issue for many victims of fraud.
