Phone number ☎️ 03001000081 👆 is reported as linked to emails sent from the Student Loans Company requesting proof of students living away from home through tenancy agreements and bank details. While several users found the communications suspicious and expressed concerns about sharing sensitive information via email, direct contact with official Student Finance representatives confirmed the legitimacy of the requests, though they acknowledged this method is new and may be refined. The practice of sending bank statements via email is widely viewed as unsafe, with official advice typically discouraging sharing personal financial details outside secure portals. Many recommend verifying independently through official Student Finance contact numbers and caution against responding directly to unsolicited emails or calls. Users suggest clearer communication and safer submission methods from the issuing body.

My daughter got a couple of emails claiming to be from Student Finance, but I told her not to respond till I checked if they were real because the sender’s address looked dodgy. I rang Student Finance today using the number off their official website (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/student-loans-company/about) to be sure. The Student Loans Company’s main office is at 100 Bothwell Street, Glasgow, G2 7JD, and their general enquiries line is 0141 306 2000. After speaking to someone there, I found out that the email address [email protected] is actually genuine. I made it clear that my daughter won’t be sending bank details via email, but they said it’s fine to send other proof like receipts or emails to confirm accommodation payments. If you do send bank statements, you can cover up your bank account number and sort code with a marker; they only need to see your name and the amount you paid. I also did mention that the email address looks quite suspicious, and they were really helpful, saying they’re taking feedback seriously to improve their communications. Hopefully, this helps others worried about similar emails. - from a concerned parent

Last week I got an email like this too. Rather than ring the number they gave, I contacted Student Finance England’s general enquiries on 0300 100 0607 to check. They confirmed it was genuine, but mentioned this is actually the first time they’ve done it this way. They also admitted it probably looks dodgy getting asked stuff by email and might change the method in the coming years. - caller: 0300 100 0081

This really sounds like a scam to me - I’ve been getting random messages and emails full of bad grammar, asking me to email over bank info and tenancy contracts. No one from the university or student housing gave us a heads up, and the SFE website clearly says they never request personal bank details by email. Oddly, when I phoned the Student Loans Company, they claimed it was all genuine, but still, it feels risky to send those papers through email. They seemed a bit annoyed when I questioned whether it might be a scam! Supposedly, it’s just a random check to prove students live away from home, for which a tenancy contract or receipt from accommodation should be enough - I don’t see why a bank statement would be necessary at all. - caller: Student Loans Company

Got a letter in the post today, so I gave student finance a call just to be sure - turns out it’s all genuine.

So my daughter and her housemates have all got the same email, and I just don't buy the idea that it’s some random picking. She’s not planning on responding to it straight away; she’s waiting for the proper letter they’re meant to send if you ignore the email first. If you ring the number in the email, the person who answers will probably just confirm it’s genuine because they want you to reply. Honestly, there’s no way you should be giving out your bank info or address through such an insecure message.

I got a call from this number as well. They asked for my tenancy agreement and other details, but I’m a bit iffy about sending it over. When I rang them back, they insisted everything was genuine, but I’m still not totally convinced. - caller: 0300 100 0081

Just got an email from this number and my first thought was to check if it’s some kind of scam. From what I can tell, it doesn’t seem like one, but there’s no way I’m sharing any personal info yet. Asking for stuff like bank details through email? That’s a big red flag for me. I’ll hold off on responding until they change how they’re handling this verification. - caller: 0300 100 0081

We got a message and an email about this, and at first, I was sure it was some kind of scam. If it’s genuine, they really should send out another message to cancel what they did and maybe try a different method. There should be a proper notice well in advance for all students, with clear details on the SFE website about what’s happening and when. - caller: SLC

I told my lad not to forward anything until I could get more info. It’s ridiculous asking students to send personal papers or bank details through an email that doesn’t even bother to verify who they are. Surely they should have used the SLC site where you log into your own profile to upload stuff, not some random unknown email - caller ID: no number, just says SLC.

I received an email supposedly from Elsewhere Evidence, and it showed the number 0300 100 0081. Has anyone actually called them or given out their info? Just curious if it’s legit or not. - caller: 0300 100 0081

My daughter received an email too, asking her to provide tenancy agreements and bank details as proof. Honestly, with all the online scams happening now, you'd think the government or the Student Loans Company would have a safer method by now. This idea of "random checks" feels really dodgy to me. The number that called was 0300 100 0081.

Has anyone ever come across this phone number? I got an email from them and I’m not really sure if it’s trustworthy or what my next step should be.

I was worried too and decided to call the Student Loans Company myself. From what they told me, it’s a genuine email from SLC and not a scam. They said it’s totally random who gets them. So, if you got one, it’s legit!

Can vouch this is real too. Bit frustrating coz there's no info about any sample check team on the official gov site. I ended up spending like 15 mins on hold just to find out if it was them or not. The caller was: 0300 100 0081.

I got an email from [email protected] with the phone number 0300 100 0081 in it, and now I’m a bit unsure if it’s legit or some kind of scam. I’m planning to ring them tomorrow just to check everything out. Has anyone else come across this number or knows if it’s genuine?

Got an email claiming to be from the Student Loans Company (SLC) which had this number on it. They wanted me to send proof that I live away from home, like pics of tenancy contracts and bank details showing name, sort code and all that. The email was from [email protected]. I know SLC doesn't ask for personal or financial info over email so this is obviously a scam. They didn't even ring me, just gave the number in the email. Watch out!

Got an email from what said it was a student loan company, asking me to send my bank info as part of some fraud prevention check. The number they gave me looked dodgy, so now I'm worried it's a phishing scam.
