I was a victim of identity theft back in June. The guy opened a dozen of different credit cards and banks. I was able to shut all of them down…. except Barclays
Barclays.
They initially closed my account, but opened it up again without informing me. And over the past 6 months, I've been sending them as much documentation as I can to prove that it was a fraudulent account, but Barclays has fought me at every turn, without provide an explanation or documentation I could provide. Every call I make jist sends me in loops ending with "just send your info to our department and wait"
I'm losing my mind. I've never experienced such a shit company. Warning to stay far away from Barclays because they'll refuse to help you…
How to fight Barclays when they reject every fraud claim.

That’s awful !!! Barclays is notorious for running people in circles on fraud claims.
If you haven’t already, filing a CFPB complaint usually forces a real, written response. Also send everything via certified mail, not just uploads. Afterwards, check [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/CyberSecurityAdvice/comments/1oexp2s/best_identity_theft_protection_my_research_and/) with all identity-theft tools in one place (freezes, alerts, monitoring, recovery steps). Keeps you sane when considering.
