02082429447 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02082429447 👆 is reported as linked to numerous scam letters purporting to come from NatWest or RBS regarding tax residency confirmation. Many recipients, including elderly and overseas customers, were urged to provide personal documents such as passports and national insurance numbers. Several have flagged inconsistencies like fake logos, incorrect addresses, and mismatched postcodes. Calls to the number often result in no answer or suspicious responses, with some noting the number displaying as unrelated businesses. Although a few believe it to be legitimate after security checks, the overwhelming consensus, including official NatWest contact confirmations, is that this is a phishing attempt. Individuals receiving such communications are strongly advised not to share personal information and to verify directly with official bank channels or their local branch.
Reports on phone number 02082429447
4 yearsI didn’t get a phone call, but I did receive a letter that looked really official asking me to ring them back - felt quite suspicious!5 yearsGot a letter about tax with a phone number to ring - 02082429447. It went to my 92-year-old aunt, who got really worried since she had no idea what to make of it.6 yearsI found this number listed on the official NatWest Customer Tax Operations page, so it appears to be genuine. I rang NatWest's fraud team to double-check and they confirmed it's a valid number. They connected me through a secure line, and the person I spoke with asked me to complete a security check, plus they had info about me that only the bank would have. Seems legit to me.NatWest6 yearsReceived a dodgy letter pretending to be from NatWest, asking me to complete a form with all my bank details and tax residency info.NatWest6 years02082429447. I moved back to New Zealand from London about three weeks ago. Got a letter supposedly from Natwest sent to my mum’s place here in NZ saying I needed to provide personal info because I’m now a tax resident here. The letter looked pretty professional but when I called the number, my phone said it was an 'air conditioning' service. I googled the number and quickly figured out it was a scam. Also, the paper wasn’t that crisp white like official Natwest stationery. What really worries me is how they got my mum’s NZ address - I only updated it a couple of weeks ago!New ZealandLondonNatwestNZ6 yearsThis number came up on some letters I got from my bank about my tax residency status. I double-checked it on their official site here: [#][#]rbs[###]/taxresidency It looks like it mainly concerns American citizens but I got flagged since I switched my phone over to a holiday sim while away. I called them, passed security checks, and they sorted everything out pretty quick. They just asked me to confirm I'm a UK tax resident and give them my NI number.UK7 yearsGot a letter to a house address asking me to verify info about some made-up business for tax stuff. Tried calling the number on the letterhead I found online - looks dodgy to me. Very fishy.7 yearsJust received this dodgy message pretending to be from Natwest, same as the others mentioned here, asking me for all my personal info and phone number, 02082429447. Ive never actually used Natwest and honestly wouldn’t want to, they’re a rubbish bank anyway.Natwest BankNatwest7 yearsLooks like Natwest's data system might have been hacked, and anyone getting this letter needs to be really careful. This is clearly a phishing attempt and it feels like Natwest isn't handling it quickly enough to keep their customers safe. If you get this letter, you should go to your closest branch and ask them to look into it.Natwest7 yearsJust got a letter that claims to be from NatWest asking me to provide all my details because they need to "confirm my tax residency status" within 30 days or they’ll take action and inform my local tax office. The letter and forms look like photocopies, but they’ve included a 2nd class envelope addressed to Customer Tax Operations, PO Box 278, WYMONDHAM, NR18 8EQ. Feels dodgy to me, so I’m going to get in touch with NatWest directly. I don’t earn enough to pay tax here in the UK, where I’ve lived my whole life, my income’s just the state pension.NatWestWYMONDHAMUK7 yearsMy father, who resides in Portugal, got a letter requesting some personal information. He's a NatWest customer but hadn't mentioned it to me until after he had already visited another bank to get his details confirmed with a stamp, which he promptly mailed back. Then, not long after, he received yet another letter. Once he clued me in, I did some digging and landed here. Cheers to this site! It's all a complete scam. I'm left pondering what those lowlifes could do with the details he's already provided. It's truly despicable behaviour from these cowardly individuals.PortugalNatWest8 yearsThe number 02082429447 links to two different postcodes. One postcode is on the return envelope, and another on an undated letter, neither of which are actually in Wymondham. That place has a tiny post office with no obvious PO boxes. Natwest really needs to sort this out quick.WymondhamNatwest8 yearsI’ve just received an official communication from Nat West asking for my tax identification number in Spain. I attempted to call them but was stuck on hold for ages without any luck to inform them that I’ve already provided this information. What on earth is going on?Nat WestSpain8 yearsMy Mum and Dad rang from France to ask if this was some kind of scam - both got letters today, supposedly from NatWest, telling them to complete forms about their tax residency (said they had 10 days to send them back or NatWest would report them to the tax office or whatever). The number was 0208 242 9447. Cheers to everyone who shared info earlier, I Googled it and worked it out super quick!FranceNatWestGoogle8 yearsI've just received a letter from NatWest today, despite having closed my account over a year and a half ago! It's baffling how they continue to send me correspondence even after all this time.NatWest8 yearsI also got a letter from Natwest recently. So, I rang up their customer service to get to the bottom of it. They verified that their tax division is actually responsible for sending out these letters. However, they advised me to ring the number listed on Natwest's official site to confirm everything.Natwest8 yearsGot a letter that looked like it was from NatWest, asking me to verify my tax status. Was gonna cheekily use the prepaid envelope to send back "try harder you muppets", but in the end just chucked it straight in the bin.NatWest8 yearsI’m living in Spain and just got a second letter this week mentioning this phone number linked to RBS. They told me it’s a scam. The first letter wanted my date of birth, but Ive been with RBS for ages, so they should already have that info!SpainRBS8 yearsWhat’s the purpose of this site, then? It seems to be populated with individuals speculating that everything is a con job, yet there’s no definitive answer to be found anywhere. What gives?8 yearsI got a letter from them just after my latest Natwest card arrived, much like the last occasion. It makes me wonder if someone at Natwest is sharing details whenever new cards are dispatched to overseas addresses.Natwest8 yearsI recently received a letter that claimed to be from RBS, and it raised my eyebrows when it mentioned they didn’t have my date of birth on record! After banking with them for quite some time, I reached out to confirm its authenticity, and they informed me it was indeed a scam. How bizarre!RBS8 yearsVERY WORRIED: Got a letter a few days ago claiming to be from Natwest about tax residency, showed this number 02082429447 and a P.O. box in Wynmondham. I rang Natwest straight away, they told me they hadn’t sent anything out recently. Both their fraud department and customer support said it was likely a scam. "Likely"? Honestly Natwest, sort this out properly, team up with the Police and stop these scams. I’ve now started an official “enquiry” with them to check if it really is fraud or not.NatWestWynmondham8 yearsI recently got hit with a second letter from this lot, totally disregarded the first as it struck me as dodgy. Now they’re claiming they're 'legally obliged to notify the Tax Authority' about me. Honestly, it doesn’t make any sense; I’m certain the tax office has the ability to conduct their own investigations. I’m really pleased I searched the number online. Cheers, everyone!Tax Authority8 yearsI got a letter for a relative who’s currently in Canada on a gap year, so I called the number on it. They asked for her account info, a copy of her passport, and her national insurance number. Cheers for the tips on this forum, I reckon I should contact Nat West to make sure this is legit.CanadaNatWest8 yearsGot a letter from Natwest about some tax stuff, but the phone number they gave connected me to an air con firm on my mobile. The person I spoke to didn’t sound very helpful and kept saying I didn’t have to fill anything out. I’m planning to pop into Natwest with the letter to check if it’s legit.Natwest BankNatwest8 yearsscam call8 yearsI received a rather peculiar letter bearing the NatWest insignia, prompting me to verify my tax residency. Naturally, I decided to give NatWest a ring to sort this out, only to discover that they had no knowledge of the correspondence and advised me to consider it a fraud attempt. It strikes me as rather odd that they managed to obtain my information, especially after I requested my new card be dispatched to Australia where I’m currently working on a temporary basis. Quite the coincidence, don’t you think?NatWestAustralia9 yearsOut of sheer curiosity, I decided to give it a ring and was greeted by an unfamiliar accent. The main number isn’t from London, and the minicom number appears to originate from Manchester. It screams scam, so steer clear of this one!LondonManchester9 yearsI must say, this situation has left me rather on edge. Following the guidance provided by NatWest, I took the plunge and responded to their initial correspondence. Since then, however, I've received a barrage of four follow-up letters, each one demanding details that set off alarm bells for me. I just had a chat with a representative from NatWest's fraud team, and he mentioned that these letters could possibly be legitimate. Apparently, the website they referenced does exist under the number 02082429447, but it’s all a bit baffling and frankly, quite unsettling.NatWest9 yearsOh, I had a similar experience! I ditched Natwest ages ago, but I received a letter that seemed rather formal yet didn’t quite make sense. Out of sheer curiosity, I rang the number provided, but to my surprise, my phone showed “air conditioning” as the label-how odd! No one picked up either. Definitely a scam!Natwest9 yearsI'm experiencing a similar dilemma here in Australia, having just shut down my NatWest account. Can we confidently say this is a scam? Cheers for any insights!AustraliaNatWest9 yearsI just got off the phone with Natwest, and they advised me that it's all a con and I should disregard it immediately. Quite unsettling, really!Natwest9 yearsI too received correspondence from this number, featuring the NatWest logo, inquiring about my tax residency status. Having moved to Australia and closed my NatWest account last year, I felt quite uneasy about it. A quick search of the postcode led me to this site, where I discovered some very enlightening details. I'm really grateful to everyone who has shared their experiences here; it’s been instrumental in raising awareness for others.NatWestAustralia9 yearsUtterly fraudulent operation has been preying on my elderly folks over in Ireland, requesting their birth certificates and passports under the guise of some tax-related nonsense.Ireland9 yearsSomebody called my elderly parents asking for sensitive info like passports and birth certificates, claiming it was about taxes. I told them straight, it’s a scam. The number they used was 02082429447.9 yearsSomeone rang my elderly folks about taxes and wanted them to send passport and birth certificate copies. I warned them it was probably a con. Number was 02082429447.9 yearsI didn’t get a response from this number…. It seems there's a plethora of scams out there at the moment. I really can’t put my faith in these documents.9 yearsThis number claims to be from NatWest’s customer tax operations, but I found it linked to three different places - Manchester, London, and Wymondham. That strikes me as odd, so I haven’t bothered to call back until I can be sure they’re legit.NatWestManchesterLondonWymondham9 yearsI recently got a letter addressed regarding my 8-year-old son, claiming that they think he might be a tax resident in Ireland. The thing is, we've never even set foot in Ireland! I've tried ringing them countless times, but no one seems to pick up the phone. Appreciate any insights on this!Ireland9 yearsI've had a couple of letters from 'Natwest' asserting I'm a tax resident in Australia. Just as I was gearing up to draft my third response, I stumbled upon this site. Cheers for the insights! I can’t help but wonder how these folks manage to rest easy at night. Quite comfortably, I suppose!NatwestAustralia9 yearsAugust 2017 They haven’t stopped! It seems folks in Ireland are now receiving similar letters. I rang the number, and they mentioned the call centre is located in Manchester. I refrained from sharing any details. I’ve kept all the correspondence. Their poor command of English raised my suspicions. I've got a Distinction in English Language from my GCE.IrelandManchester9 yearsI recently got a letter requesting my personal details from this number, but I've never even held an account with May West Bank! To be safe, I popped into my local branch and handed the letter over to them. They're sending it over to their fraud team for further investigation.May West Bank9 yearsAbsolutely dreadful! I’ve encountered individuals claiming to be from the NatWest tax information collection team.NatWest9 yearsReceived a call from a rather articulate lady who claimed to be from a bank and requested my tax information. Naturally, I refrained from sharing any details and instead asked for her phone number. She provided me with 02082429447, but upon ringing my bank, they informed me that they solely utilise 0345 numbers for such matters. Quite suspicious, I must say!10 yearsIt appears to be the HMRC reaching out regarding matters related to business taxation.HMRCSubmit Your Own Report (020 8242 9447)
