CCV Security Code and Changing Address
Hi,
I'm trying to take out a new mobile phone contract for my dad. But it
rejected the card details when we ordered it online. The reason being
was that my dad's bank had two words in the address spelt as one and
the wrong postcode for his account.
We have now instructed the bank to correct the address and they have
said it has now been done so. However, the website is still rejecting
the card. My dad has a Visa Debit bank card. From my understaning the
CCV is generated from the address. So I'm wondering does my dad needs
a new bank card to get a new CCV code?
Many thanks!

I've never needed a new card when I've moved house.
When we enter Card Not Present transactions we have to enter the CCV,
the post-code and the numerical part of the address. If all is correct
we get a data match message. If the address is not what is on record we
get a sec code match only. Having human involvement gives an element of
discretion.
I imagine that the phone co "needs" to have an address data match to
confirm the address, and there is still some issue there.

Go back to Martin's website where I have given a possible explanation.
