Unable to get closing date of old Barclaycard

[hugo r]

I previously held a plat Barclaycard which I cancelled in October

I wish to get the new paid avios card with the enhanced bonus however I don’t want to apply to early as so understand you have to wait 6 months to re apply

I have called Barclaycard 3 times , each time I get a different date for the account closure (3rd 15th 27th Oct ), I never got an actual letter to say the account was closed , how do I actually find out ?

I am a Barclays Bank customer went into branch they couldn’t tell me either , same with the online chat on the app

Seems strange why I can’t actually find out

Seems a pointless concern, when the last date they gave, 27th October, is more than 6 months ago.

You can always do a formal Subject Access Request.

My understanding is that while you can reapply after six months the bonus is only payable after a two year break.

27th October is more than six months ago and re the bonus eligibility, the OP reported the account closed in October was a Barclaycard Plat so he is eligible both to reapply and get the Barclaycard Avios SUB after six months. It’s only if you close an Avios Barclaycard that you can’t get a new SUB for two years, although you can theoretically reapply after six months and accept no SUB.

OP did you not check credit agencies yet. Even creditkarma or clearscore? They have details of all the cards I’ve closed.
