Tried ringing them earlier today but they hung up right before their voicemail kicked in.

I had pretty much the same thing happen to me. I was waiting on a call and just picked up without checking. There was this automated voice with an American accent telling me my card security had been compromised. I didn’t bother to hear them out any further and ended the call straight away. I highly doubt any UK building society bank would talk to customers like that. I've blocked the number since then.

Got a call this mornin from some automated voice sayin there'd been a couple of dodgy transactions on my account. Complete rubbish! Nothing like that happened at all. I’m on the TPS and my number’s ex-directory, so I shouldn’t be getting these calls in the first place. Total scam if you ask me.

Beware of this call! I just received a dodgy, recorded message purporting to be from the security department of my bank.

I’ve noticed a couple of dodgy transactions on my account - one for £700 and another for £2,000. Quite alarming, to say the least!

Got a couple of missed calls from this number yesterday. Then I picked up one today but they just ended the call straight away. I’m definitely going to block them now.

I got a recorded call supposedly from "Security," but they never actually said which security they were talking about. They mentioned that my bank card was used for two transactions earlier today - one was £700 and the other was £2,000, both supposedly sent via some money transfer service. They never said the name of the service, keeping everything purposefully unclear. Of course, they wanted me to press 1 or 2 to get more info. I've blocked this number now, joining the long list of scam calls I keep getting.
