Got a call from a 'no caller id' number, some bloke with an Indian accent saying he's from Nationwide. He asked me to confirm my postcode and age (apparently over 75), then if I was happy with my bank service, and just cut off after that. Just a heads up, this defo isn’t Nationwide calling. Don’t really know what he was trying to do yet.

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from Nationwide. He asked for my name and if I was happy with their service. I said yes just to confirm my name. Then he just said thanks and ended the call. Like another person mentioned here, I reckon they're trying to match voices with our info. Not sure who to report this to but I’m definitely not a Nationwide customer.

Got a call from a no caller ID earlier today. Picked up and a guy with an Indian accent said he was from Nationwide Credit Card, asked me to confirm my name and address, if I was happy with Nationwide, and if I was under 75. I answered but then he just hung up. Rang Nationwide right after and they said they hadn’t called me. Told Nationwide about the call just in case.

Got a ring from this number, I only picked up cause I was waiting for a call. The person asked for me by name and then wanted my postcode, which I refused to give. After that they got quite annoyed and hung up. Better to avoid answering this one.

Called from Nationwide. The person had a thick Indian accent and seemed to know my name already. They wanted some sort of feedback. I asked them two times what feedback they were on about. Then they started cursing in a language I didn’t understand and just hung up. Best to just ignore these calls.

Just like what everyone else is saying, they’re tryna get you to say YES! Don’t say nothing, especially not YES! Have a look online for stories about how these scumbags use your voice and details to cause loads of trouble and nick your identity. Best thing is to BLOCK or IGNORE them. If you do answer, be careful what you say!

What a dodgy call centre! I’ve got relatives in Arbroath, so I answered, but as soon as I asked what it was regarding they just hung up on me. They mentioned something about Nationwide but gave me a wrong postcode. When I called back, it said the number was out of service. Seems like they’re fishing for info to use against you, so best not to reply to their questions or say anything that might give them clues like your bank or address details.

Got a call this morning from someone claiming to be from Nationwide, I asked whether he actually worked for Nationwide or another firm, he insisted he was with Nationwide.

01241 578886 from Arbroath has been calling me loads. I either miss or pick up but this time it was an Indian accent lady who asked me to verify my name.

They kept ringing me every single day this week, and I finally lost my patience and picked up. She already knew my name and asked me to confirm my postcode, but her heavy Indian accent made it really hard to understand. I had to ask her to repeat herself three times before I could make out what she was saying. Once I got the gist, I just told her to leave me alone and blocked the number straight away.

When they asked me to confirm my name, I said it wasn’t right and made up a different one. Then they wanted to check my address, so I gave them a fake one as well. When they asked about my age being under 79, I actually told the truth for once :-) Then came the question about what phone I had, iPhone or Samsung, so I glanced at my Samsung and just said “GPO 162”. They finished by thanking me for letting them take me off their list. Result!
