01179926719 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01179926719 👆 is reported as a number associated with HMRC in some cases, primarily linked to complaints or enquiries, but it often raises suspicion due to its Bristol area code, which is uncommon for official HMRC calls that usually show as withheld or 0300 numbers. Some users confirm legitimate contact, especially if expecting communication or after verification through official channels. However, many warn of scam callers impersonating HMRC, asking for personal or financial details, and failing to provide verifiable information. HMRC typically communicates via letters rather than unsolicited calls and advises never to share sensitive data over the phone. New visitors should remain cautious, verify unexpected calls independently through official HMRC contact points, and avoid engaging with suspicious requests.

I picked up and they just ended the call straight away. If this is really HMRC like people say, I aint complained or anything that would make them call me. I don’t reckon it’s them. Loads of scams seem to be using Bristol numbers these days.

An older lady reached out expressing her interest in participating in the village quiz, although she mentioned her home was in Luton and inquired about the distance required to reach us. She also mentioned that her friend worked as a vet and had some questions regarding the catering arrangements, specifically what would be included in the menu. To my surprise, she boasted about her friend’s experience with quizzes, even mentioning they had appeared on television quiz programmes! I promised to get back to her with more information, but when I attempted to return her call, I just heard the dial tone - no ringing whatsoever. It was curious, considering she was adamant about her location being Luton, yet the number was from Bristol. She had the voice of an older woman. - Caller: Elderly Lady, name unavailable.

I recently had a rather concerning interaction with HMRC regarding my employer, who's apparently shelling out less than the minimum wage. They didn't pry into any private stuff aside from my National Insurance number and date of birth. Their inquiries revolved around my job specifics and my break durations, nothing too alarming. To top it off, I got a letter from them indicating they want to have a chat. I genuinely believe it's all above board. Of course, there's no chance I’d ever divulge my banking information!

It's almost certainly the HMRC, as they often use a centralised number for communications. I recall instances where the caller ID from an agent came through as "blocked number." So, there's really no reason to be alarmed! 👍🏼

The number was listed on a letter supposedly from HMRC tax dept. A young English lady answered but said it wasnt connected to HMRC. She mentioned others had phoned asking about HMRC before too. When I contacted the real HMRC, they said they’d never sent anything with that number, told me to ignore it. Bit odd if you ask me.

Totally legit. I got a missed call from 01179926719 and there was a voicemail. It was from the HMRC Shares and Assets Valuation Team. The lady said her name and asked me to ring back on 03000562543. I called and she already had all my info from a letter I’d sent recently asking HMRC for a company valuation to run an EMI share option scheme for us. Completely safe to answer.

Seems a bit iffy, I had a missed call from this number recently. I actually know someone who’s employed there. But honestly, they’re pretty much all British, hardly any Asian staff. Just be cautious. When you answer, ask them who you are rather than telling them who you are. That way you can confirm it’s legit. You could also ask for your address to be sure.

I got a voicemail from this number, instructing me to call a different one to chat about some references I don’t remember at all. They also mentioned a letter would be sent my way, but I’ve yet to see anything arrive. Honestly, what can you trust these days? The best advice seems to be to take everything with a pinch of salt!

It’s quite possible that this has nothing to do with the relevant department, yet it seems there are certainly some people out there who are more inclined to line their own pockets. Last year, the child tax credits were a right mess, and it has turned my life and that of my children upside down. The situation for vulnerable individuals in the UK is dismal; it feels like regardless of how dire someone's circumstances may be, there’s little to no support available. Even those of us who play by the rules and contribute properly feel utterly let down.

I've had a couple of calls from this number for two consecutive days. Sadly, I've not been able to answer either of them, so I'm left in the dark about who's been trying to reach me.

Just a heads up related to what was said earlier, saying a number is 100% a scam can sometimes be wrong. My own name ended up on sites like this, labelled as a scammer pretending to be HMRC, all because of a mistake someone else made earlier. When I caught the mix-up a few minutes later and tried calling back to sort it out, the company had already put a block on my team's number. So suddenly, both our number and my name were listed as scammers! Nothing is ever straightforward, is it?

Just a heads up from someone at HMRC - over the past few days, every call coming in has been showing this same number, even when the calls were passed over from other HMRC extensions. Our phone setup is pretty complicated, so it’s hard to say for certain what’s happening. I've gone with neutral since it’s probably a legit HMRC number, but it is odd that a Bristol area code keeps popping up and makes you wonder if anyone could be faking it.

The caller asked for someone with an Asian sounding name, something like Mr Li Tan Poy or close to that. I told them they had the wrong person and hung up. The call was on my mobile. When I searched the number online, some say it’s HMRC, others reckon it’s a scam. I tried calling HMRC and the caller ID showed 01179926719. My phone’s call log shows the incoming as 03000550955, bit suspicious like a number swapping trick. When I looked up that number, I couldn’t find any details.

Honestly, I received the call and nearly assumed it was a scam so I didn’t share any info. I contacted HMRC (the first team I could reach) and they said it seemed dodgy and normally they don’t phone people directly. But when I logged into my tax account and chatted with an online advisor, they confirmed the call was legit and I actually had a payment waiting. So yeah, NEVER give out personal info on the phone, but DO double-check by reaching out to HMRC yourself or using your online account to speak to someone.

This is definitely a con. HMRC doesn’t ring you up asking for details like that. They already have all your info, so there’s no point in asking again. The scam calls come from loads of different numbers, so watch out. I’m with you, if anyone says it’s legit then they’re just scammers themselves.
