Methods, apparatus, and computer readable media for confirmation and verification of shipping address data associated with a transaction. The invention as described herein provides a method of verifying first and at least second shipping address information associated with transactions conducted over a telecommunications network. The first and second shipping address information can be stored respectively in a first format and a second format, such as respective speech and text formats. The method functions by accessing address information pertaining to a specific transaction by extracting the respective address information as stored in both formats. The address information is then compared to each other to ensure that they are consistent. If the address information as stored in the two respective formats are sufficiently inconsistent, the underlying transaction may be dispositioned in various ways according to the difference. Typically, the person with whom the transaction is conducted provides live voice data that is stored in a first data store, while a live operator interacting with the person transcribes this voice data for storage as text data in a second data store. The invention focuses on ensuring consistency between the address information as stored in these two different data stores for the purposes of both quality assurance and fraud prevention. Apparatus and computer readable media implementing the above-described method are also provided herein.
