delete saved credit card or address info

[Bluebutterfly]

How can I delete any saved addresses or credit card info?

I went to Chrome and there is no saved information at all - no credit cards or addresses, yet when I fill in this form on a particular website to charge my clients, sometimes the addresses pop up as an option to auto-populate.

Two days ago I was on my work computer charging clients, my husband's card got charged also even though I didn't have his card number with me and I don't know it by heart. It was also charged in the same amount I charged him 3 weeks ago.

So I went back to my computer, I tried to replicate what happened - I added his name, but nothing popped up or auto-populates with his credit card or anything. Nothing.

So I have no clue how his card got charged.

@Bluebutterfly Go to vivaldi:/settings (not from the menu) and click on "Autofill and passwords".

you probably meant chrome://settings/autofill because vivaldi:/settings is the menu settings

[sgunhouse]

@iAN-CooG No, I actually typed vivaldi:/settings into the address bar to check before my above reply. Mind you, chrome:/settings is the same page.

@sgunhouse Seems that
vivaldi:/settings --> brings you to Chrome's settings - chrome://settings
vivaldi://settings --> brings you to Vivaldi's settings

Note the single slash in the first one.

You should always use :// for urls like this to avoid confusion.
It even working with a single slash is probably some "hack" Chromium's left in to avoid giving errors on typos - it even works the Mozilla way - chrome:settings.

vivaldi:/settings --> brings you to Chrome's settings - chrome://settings
vivaldi://settings --> brings you to Vivaldi's settings

I see now, it's an exploit of a bug. You actually copy/paste in the address field, I was using the context menu after selecting the url, and gets normalized to "Go to vivaldi://settings" so it just goes to vivaldi://settings

@sgunhouse Thanks but the credit card auto fill option on Vivaldi was not checked.

[Bluebutterfly]

@Pathduck Thanks but both Chrome (it only has my credit card saved) and Vivaldi settings did not have my husband's credit card info saved

@Bluebutterfly Delete Browsing Data and make sure Form Autofill Data is selected.

chrome://settings/payments is where the card info is saved.
If it's not there I don't know what you're doing wrong here.

Doesn't have to be a saved CC, it could just be an autofill entry.
A saved CC looks like this:

A regular autofill entry looks like this:

@Pathduck Thanks for the info!! I did what you said and deleted the Form Autofill Data.

I still don't understand how it happened. When I went to the same site to try to duplicate the error I could not. I even tried putting the first 4 digits of his credit card and nothing popped up or offered me the option to auto-fill his card number.

I will have to be extra careful in future.

@Bluebutterfly Yeah, just pay attention when filling out web forms. Autofilled form inputs will have a light blue background, that should help.

Or you could of course just disable the Autofill altogether, you can do this in Settings > Privacy & Security > Autofill.

Good web sites and especially payment sites will/should have set their input fields to not accept autofill data for instance. So you could talk with your payment provider about this.

Of course, a lot of people prefer this Autofill functionality and think it's a time saver, and I doubt there's a huge number of complaints to payment providers that people autofilled their spouse's CC by mistake

As of the latest Vivaldi 3405.3 snapshot (test version), you can find autofill data under Vivaldi Settings: Privacy.
