Barclays SA 23 Application Rejected and Then Said it Was an Error

So I got an email from Barclays for a SA 23 application I submitted letting me know that they would "not be moving forward with my application at the current time" and a couple of hours later they sent me another email saying that it was a mistake and that I am still in consideration and currently under review.

What should I make of this? Has this happened to any of you on here?
