10 monthsGot a call about my Universal Credit from DWP, wanted to double check if it was legit.DWP1 yearLooks like this number is a total scam. I called the DWP to check and they told me straight up it wasn’t legit. If you’ve already shared your bank info with them, you should get in touch with your bank ASAP and let them know what’s going on.Department for Work and Pensions1 yearWithout a doubt, this number is dodgy. I called DWP myself, gave them the number, and they told me it’s a scam. If you ended up sharing your bank info with them, I’d seriously recommend contacting your bank straight away to sort it out. Usually, if DWP phones you, it’s from an 0800 number, not something strange like this.DWP2 yearsThis London number showed up on my phone today but I didn’t catch the call. I looked it up and people say it’s the DWP. When I tried calling back, the line just disconnected straight away which felt dodgy. I’m waiting on PIP to get in touch so I’d have thought they’d have a legit number to call me from. This seems a bit off to me.LondonDWP2 yearsI think it was the DWP doing an assessment. They never seem to warn you before calling! The first time they rang from this number, I didn’t pick up, then they called again straight away but this time it showed as a private number. When I asked if they were the ones who called just then, they said yes.DWP2 yearsI was waiting on a call from DWP to verify my state pension claim for next year since they couldn't confirm my details through the online form. I saw this number here and found out it’s actually from DWP. I didn't pick up at first, but I plan to when they ring again. The comments from others on here really helped me figure that out.DWP2 yearsGot a call from this older woman who sounded like she was checking up on my wife's pension claim online. Seemed legit, like it was from the DWP or something.DWP2 yearsI got a call back from the Cardiff Registry Office about getting a copy of a birth certificate. It was nothing suspicious and something I was waiting for. They even left a voicemail explaining why they were calling.Registry OfficeCardiff2 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from the DWP and wanted my date of birth, old address, and my doctor’s details. I got really nervous and hung up. Later, I called the official enquiry number to check if it was really them.DWP2 yearsI got a call from someone mentioning a PIP claim and asking for my bank details. I wasn’t comfortable sharing any info with some random person on the line. They didn’t sound threatening or anything, but I still felt really unsure about it.2 yearsIt was the DWP, the lady spoke English and even knew my name and all, she needed the same security details as the DWP usually does, and she’s my case manager. Really nice woman, definitely not a scam.DWP2 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, they asked me to verify information about a form I supposedly sent to HMRC about my pension. Anyone know if this number is legit or a scam?HMRC2 yearsIt’s a total rip off, when you try to ring back it just don’t go through.2 yearsBE SUPER CAREFUL WITH THIS ONE2 yearsI’m pretty sure the DWP uses some kind of automated message system, at least so you know they tried to contact you. But if you try calling the number back and just get silence instead of a ring, watch out!DWP2 yearsNo way its a scam, its 100% definitely from the DWP.DWP2 yearsReceived a call today about pip saying I’m owed some money. They asked for my name, bank details and national insurance number. Now I’m feeling really worried.2 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be from DWP regarding a maternity claim.

However, when I rang them up, they claimed to have no information whatsoever regarding this number. Quite puzzling, really!DWP2 yearsSomething about this seems dodgy.

I checked my PIP stuff and this number wasn’t anywhere on my records. They already have your NI number, so why would they need to ask for it? I’ve always heard you shouldn’t share that kind of info with anybody on the phone, even if they claim to be from the DWP!DWPNational Insurance2 yearsReview of Pension Credit3 yearsThey hung up so quick, I didn’t even get to pick up, not sure who was calling.3 yearsNo doubt it was the DWP, they had all the details about my PIP claim, even info from my doctors and the specialist.DWPPIP3 yearsGot a weird phone call claiming to be from DWP, asking for my full name, DOB and National Insurance number. They mentioned I missed a PIP video assessment and warned me it’d mess up my claim if I didn’t stay on the call. But then out of nowhere, they just said thanks and ended the call.

Best to ignore any calls from this number!3 yearsI’ve received two calls from this number today.3 yearsI'm a bit confused. There was no voicemail or anything, and all I can see is this verification webpage.

I must admit, I'm a bit sceptical about the whole thing.Department for Work and Pensions3 yearsReceived a call from someone masquerading as a representative from the DWP, inquiring about a PIP claim. It truly seems to be a dodgy number.DWP3 yearsI got a call from a lady who claimed to be with the DWP, asking to run through some security checks with me. She wanted to know what benefits I’m on, my date of birth, and which GP I go to. It felt quite pushy and a bit dodgy, so I didn’t give her any more info or continue the call. Something definitely seemed fishy about it.DWP5 yearsTotal scam, don't trust it!5 yearsGot a call from some rude bloke who kept blagging for advice and just messing about with my time. Best to just hang up. They mostly ring big firms, pestering you to pass them onto a manager so they can dig out company details.
