01278652280 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01278652280 👆 is reported as a persistent and widespread scam involving automated calls claiming to be from bank security or Visa departments, often citing unauthorised transactions or suspicious payments. Callers typically use a recorded American voice urging recipients to press buttons to speak to a “team,” aiming to extract personal or financial details. The number is frequently spoofed, despite belonging to a legitimate business unrelated to banking. Targets report no genuine affiliation with the stated institutions and advise hanging up immediately. Many experienced users note repeated calls, no messages left, and a pattern of fraudulent intent to steal money or data. Authorities and providers have yet to halt these calls, so vigilance and blocking are strongly recommended.

2 yearsSomebody rang me and called me mum, I told them I wasn't their mum and then they just ended the call.2 yearsThey rang me saying they were from the bank and that there had been some dodgy transaction on my account - complete nonsense really. Seems like just a trick to try and grab my bank info. Total scam as far as I’m concerned.2 yearsLooks like a scam to me. Some sneaky bank fraud going on here.2 yearsGot a call from some robot sayin’ there’s an emergency with my Visa because it was used to book a flight. My number’s actually tied to my work phone, not linked to any cards at all. Pretty obvious spam to me!!2 yearsThis number called me on my home phone earlier today. A recorded female voice said she was from the “Visa Security Team” and mentioned a supposed flight booking from London abroad costing £1500. They told me to press 2 to talk to someone, but I just cut the call right away, figuring it was probably some sort of scam from another country.Visa Fraud Prevention TeamLondon2 yearsGot a call from some recorded American bloke claiming to be from "the bank" without even naming which one. He kept going on about dodgy transactions of £700 and £2000 on my account. Totally lame and painfully obvious it was a scam.2 yearsI got a call from 01278 652280 claiming to be from bank security, asking me to press 1, 2, 3 for different options. They said there were two payments taken from my account for £700 and £2000. When I called the number back to question them, the person said this had been going on for about four months. Turns out, the number is actually registered to a quarry in Bridgwater, Somerset, and has absolutely nothing to do with any bank security.BridgwaterSomerset2 yearsGot a dodgy recorded call claiming to be the government, but it cut off before they finished what they were saying. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.2 yearsGot a voicemail from some bloke called Mark, claiming he’s from Energy or something. Sounded like a recording. Anyone else get that?Mark2 yearsRing at 12.10 but nothing, just quiet.2 yearsGot a call from someone with an American accent, saying they were from my bank’s security team about some weird charges. Total scam, watch out!2 yearsI recently encountered a rather dubious banking scam. It’s alarming how these crafty individuals operate.2 yearsGot a call with some recorded voice about my bank, total scam, really risky stuff, watch out everyone.2 yearsGot a call from some automated voice claiming to be from my bank's security team. Sounded dodgy to me. Definitely a scam, watch out!Security Department2 yearsThis phone number is originally registered to CASTLE HILL QUARRY CO., LIMITED but loads of dodgy scammers keep faking it.CASTLE HILL QUARRY COMPANYLIMITED2 yearsThey tried that one again about my bank account being hacked. Can't believe they keep using the same old bank scam. Such a cliché now.2 yearsI received a rather suspicious call from 01278 652280, purporting to be my bank. They said, "A transfer has been requested," and instructed me to "press 1 to proceed" or something along those lines. Interestingly, I had the exact same experience - almost verbatim - from 07873010940 just a couple of weeks back. To top it off, I had just shared my phone number and banking information online with a second-hand computer retailer about twenty minutes before that call came in. Quite the coincidence, wouldn't you say?2 yearsGot a robo call claiming they’re from 'bank security' - but which bank exactly? They said my account might be involved in some dodgy stuff. Funny thing is, the only dodgy thing here is whoever’s behind this scam call. Totally obvious con.2 yearsThis number keeps calling me, it has to be a scam. You’d think they would have blocked it by now!ALERT2 yearsTotal rip off. Noticed odd transfers of £700 and £2000 going overseas or somewhere suspicious. Tried pressing 2, thinking maybe I’d get some info or something, but all I got was dead silence until the call just dropped.2 yearsIf people are saying this number is linked to bank scams, why hasn't BT cut the line? Seems odd that they’d let it stay active.BT2 yearsReceived a recorded call claiming to be from "your bank". Clearly a dodgy scam, so I decided to end the call.2 yearsGot a robotic message claiming to be from my bank, but it never mentioned the bank’s name. Pretty clear that was a scam call.2 yearsIf this is a BT landline linked to a well-known place and used for scam calls, I don’t get why BT or the police don’t just shut it down? Seems strange they haven’t taken action yet.BT2 yearsReceived a call about suspicious payments from my account, turned out to be a bank security scam. Really alarming stuff.2 yearsGot a recorded call trying the old bank scam, you know the drill - they mentioned two big transactions, one being overseas, and asked me to press 1. Just went ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsGot a call with no voicemail left. Didn’t take any chances and blocked straight away. Had a look here and seems like it’s either a scam or some sort of fraud. Better safe than sorry.2 yearsThis number is definitely involved in some kind of bank scam, do everyone a favour and block it. Honestly, there should be some proper method to put an end to these scammers once and for all.2 yearsI picked up and they just cut the call straight away.2 yearsGot a voicemail about some bank transfer thing. Weird, wasn't expecting it.2 yearsI reckon this might be one of those scams trying to steal cash from my bank account.2 yearsMoney sent via bank transfer.2 yearsI rang a company, and when I picked up, there was this message playing in French, then suddenly the call just dropped. Proper strange!2 yearsGot a call from 01278652280 but they didn’t leave any voicemail. We usually don’t pick up unknown numbers and we’re definitely registered with the TPS, so these calls shouldn’t be coming through. The annoying thing is, TPS only takes complaints if you actually answer the call, which is a bit daft! Luckily I checked out other people’s reviews and have blocked the number now.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS2 yearsI got a recorded call from a woman speaking with a really thick American accent claiming she was from bank security. Since I’m over here in west Wales, it felt super fishy. Definitely just a scam trying to trick me.West Wales2 yearsI’ve had a couple of big withdrawals showing from my account and this number keeps pretending to be my bank. Honestly, why haven’t the police or BT done anything to stop this yet? It’s so frustrating!2 yearsThey charged me cc fees.2 yearsJust checked, and went straight to voicemail a few mins back.2 yearsThere’s been a dodgy withdrawal from my account claiming to be from American Express. Feels like a proper scam, watch out!American Express2 yearsToday, I got a call on my home phone and some robotic voice started talking about two sums of money being taken from my account, one for £700 and some other amount. It told me to press 1, but the line got all crackly and I couldn’t catch what else it said. Figuring it was probably a scam, I just hung up straight away.2 yearsGot a call on my landline at 12:12 today from an unknown number. Didn’t pick up, so it went straight to voicemail but they didn’t leave any message.2 yearsReceived a call from some dodgy person, kept playing a recorded message warning me about supposed bank fees. Total scammer, beware!2 yearsIt’s shocking to see this dodgy number preying on vulnerable older folks. How is it that this can go on without being stopped?2 yearsAbsolutely a total bank scam!! I got the same recorded voicemail just like two others I received about 5 and 6 days before this one.2 yearsDidnt recognise the number so I just let it ring. Then the voicemail kicked in, and after that the call ended by itself.2 yearsSilence, then it clicked off. I can see from here that it is a scam number. Avoid.2 yearsNo voicemail or nothing left. Pretty sure it's a scam! Cheers.2 yearsHad a call from this number, but when I answered, they went completely quiet before hanging up. A quick check has revealed it’s a dodgy one. Best to steer clear of it!2 yearsGot one of those dodgy calls pretending to be from the bank again.2 yearsNo one said anything and then the call just ended. Looking it up now, it seems like one of those scam calls. Best to stay clear of it.2 yearsEarlier today, I received a rather suspicious automated voicemail on my unlisted number. It mentioned a £300 charge from Amazon, alongside an eye-watering £1100 international money transfer. It's just so transparently a scam, isn't it? What a nuisance! 😠Amazon2 yearsI got a recorded message on my private number, which is also on the TPS list. Somehow, £300 disappeared from my Amazon account, plus an international transfer of £1100. Honestly, do they really believe folks are that daft?Telephone Preference ServiceAmazon2 yearsGot a call today with a recorded voice claiming to be from my bank. Looks like a total scam to me.2 yearsThis number rang me up earlier today, and it was some sketchy sounding robotic voice saying there’d been a couple dodgy charges on my debit card - one supposedly from Amazon for £300 and another from some international money service for £1,100. They told me to press 1 to confirm or cancel the payments, or 2 to talk to someone about it. Didn’t press a single button!Amazon2 yearsGot a voicemail about some bank fraud thing, I think? They kept mentioning an Amazon order and something about sending money abroad. It told me to hit 1 or 2 for options, but they didn’t say any names or anything. Quite dodgy if you ask me.Amazon2 yearsOnce again got that typical scam call about my bank account being emptied. I probably get these annoying calls a few times weekly. It’s like someone out there has my details - name and age - and just assumes that anyone in their 70s is an easy target. So frustrating!2 yearsI got a call from this number but they didn’t leave any message. I’m pretty sure it’s just another scam. I’m registered with the telephone preference service, but they obviously found a way around it.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI’ve just noticed a withdrawal of £600 from my account! What on earth is going on?2 yearsGot a call from some recorded voice pretending to be my bank or Visa. Total scam alert!!2 yearsGot a robo call saying it was from my credit card fraud dept, but I just ignored it.2 yearsI think this was some sort of bank scam. Felt really dodgy to me.2 yearsI just let the phone ring and no message was left, so I'm pretty sure it's a scam. Having a look at what others have said here only confirms what I suspected.2 yearsI received a dodgy phone call from someone pretending to be from my bank, claiming there was an issue with my Amazon account. Definitely a scam!Amazon2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the "Judiciary Police". Pretty clear to me it’s just another scam trying to trick people!!!Judiciary Police2 yearsLooks like a scam, definitely some kind of bank fraud going on here.2 yearsGot a call from this number just now, and it turned out to be one of those Visa card scams. Be careful!2 yearsSo this is definitely one of those fake bank security calls with an automated voice telling you to press buttons to speak to their “team”. Don’t fall for it, pressing the button just connects you to an expensive premium line. Best thing is to just hang up straight away. They’re pretty relentless too - I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve received calls like this over the past few months. If you want to check online, use words like SCAM, Fraud, Dodgy, or Annoying to find out more.2 yearsDidn’t pick up the phone and got a voicemail instead: “Hello, this is Fern. There’s £100 on an international money transfer site. We’ve noticed something odd and think it might be suspicious. If you want to stop it, press one, or press two to talk to our support team. Thanks.” Bit weird, right?2 yearsJust had a call from 01278 652280 on my BT home phone. Naturally, I opted to let it hit the answer machine, as is my usual routine. Not surprisingly, no message was left behind. A quick check with 1471 brought up the number, so I attempted to block it by calling 1572 and following the prompts, but alas, it turns out this number isn’t recognised. It seems I might have to suffer through this nuisance once more, which is rather frustrating!2 yearsGot a robo call claiming to be from ‘Bank Security’ asking about some dodgy transactions on my account. Thought it was a scam right away, so I hung up and blocked the number straight away.Bank Security2 yearsAnswered this number once and it was a scam trying to get my bank details. I’ve blocked the number since then.2 yearsEncountered a scam posing as bank security.3 yearsGot a call claiming my bank was involved in some dodgy activity, probably just a scam where they try to block or cut off your account. Classic trickers trying to steal info.3 yearsGot a call from a woman saying she was from my bank’s security team about some bogus charges on my card. Totally a scam, avoid these #### no matter what!4 yearsI just got a phone call claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse, trying to sell me some amazing offer on an iPhone.Carphone Warehouse4 yearsThey rang up saying there might have been some funny business with my bank account security. Right away, I thought it sounded like a scam.Submit Your Own Report (01278 652280)
