Reports on phone number 03456000529
2 yearsI swear this is really the co-operative bank calling, not some random scammer! I kept trying to add my new card to Apple Pay but it kept failing and set off a fraud warning. If you’re worried it’s dodgy, just call 159 yourself and you’ll get connected to the same people.Apple2 yearsIf you’re unsure about a number claiming to be a bank’s fraud team, you can ring 159 - it’s a national line that connects you to the right fraud department (just look up ‘stop scams uk’ for more info). That said, this number is legit for the Coop, which I confirmed by ringing the number on the back of my card and getting through to them directly.Co - op2 yearsBest to avoid calling that number. Instead, try 159. Although it's a Co-operative phone line, it appears to be inactive at the moment. If you receive any prompts to ring this number, I’d recommend steering clear and reporting it to the Co-op straight away. I don’t bank directly with the Co-op myself, but I do use one of their affiliates, and they sent me an email urging me to use this number. It seems that fraudsters are now employing platforms like this to peddle the idea that certain phone numbers are genuine. March 2024Co - op3 yearsGot a message telling me to call this number about fraud on a card that’s not even mine? Total nonsense. My tip: always ring your bank using their official number, don’t trust these scammers. Those giving good reviews are either tricked or in on it.3 yearsThis was total scam, I used to be with coop bank and knew how they handle security so quickly realised this wasnt legit. I told the lady I felt uneasy and would hang up then call the bank directly to check. She then said if I did that, they couldn’t promise no more fraud would happen. That made me suspicious straight away so I cut the call. When I got through to the bank, my doubts were confirmed. Watch out for this one!3 yearsTotally a scam, used to be at the coop bank so know how their security works. This call was nowhere near legit. I told the lady I wasn’t happy and that I’d hang up and phone the bank directly to be sure. She then said something about not being able to promise no more fraud if I did that. That really sounded dodgy, so I just ended the call. Called the bank afterwards, and yep, I was right. Watch out for this!Coop Bank3 yearsIndeed, this is an authentic contact number associated with the Co-operative Bank.Co - operative Bank3 yearsGot a voicemail from the co-op fraud squad asking me to ring them back on this number. I couldn't spot it on their site, so I gave them a direct call instead. They told me this number is legit - definitely from co-op bank, so I’d say it’s safe to trust.Co - opCo - op Bank3 yearsThey’re pretending to represent the Co-op bank.Co - op3 yearsThis was for the Co-op, I actually called them up to double check if the number belonged to their fraud department. First I phoned the suspicious number itself, then I gave the usual Co-op number a bell and had a couple of people there confirm it’s definitely theirs.Coop3 yearsGot this number from an email that said it was from Coop Bank, but I ended up calling the number on the back of my debit card instead. Felt safer using that one.Coop Bank3 yearsDON'T TRUST THIS NUMBER, IT'S NOT FROM COOP BANK--IT'S A SCAM. BE CAREFUL AND AVOID RINGING UNFAMILIAR CALLERS!!!Coop Bank5 yearsJust got an email about 4 payments being blocked through Apple Pay, so I rang the co-op and spoke to them to sort it out. Must be them causing the issue.5 yearsI got a call from this number and it turned out to be from the fraud team at the co-operative bank. To be sure, I phoned another official contact number of the bank and they confirmed that this number was legit.5 yearsI rang the Co-Operator bank on another phone number and they told me that it’s a legit co-op number.Co - Operative Bank5 yearsI dealt with the fraud team at the Cooperative Bank and they were totally legit.5 yearsThis number really belongs to the fraud department at the Co-operative Bank. I got a call from an 'Unknown’ number and they left this one for me to ring back. When I checked, my card had been blocked, so I tried the main Coop contact on their website, but the wait was ages. I decided to ring this number instead. Even though they calmed me down, I still felt uneasy, so I popped into my closest Coop branch and they sorted out unblocking my card. It’s definitely a legit number, but if you’re worried, best to visit a branch just to be safe.Co - operative BankCo - op5 yearsI recently got a secure message from Smile, saying this number actually belongs to the Smile/Co-operative Bank fraud team. I mentioned to them that since they don't publicize this number, it’s only natural customers might be wary. Honestly, it’s safer to call back using a number you can find officially advertised.SmileSmile / Co - operative Bank5 yearsThis definitely isn’t the Co-op Bank. I’ve seen loads of listings on here claiming to be the Co-op, but it’s a trick used by scammers who abuse this service to con folks. Watch out!Co - operative BankCo - op5 yearsIgnore the good reviews you see here, they’ve been put up by the scammers themselves. The number 0345 6000 529 isn’t actually the Co-op Bank’s contact. If you call it, it pretends to be the bank, and you’ll get put through to a queue, but eventually, you’re talking to a fraudster. If you get any messages, calls or emails claiming to be from Co-op Bank warning about fraud and asking you to ring urgently, just use the number on your debit card instead. That’s the only one you can trust. Don’t ever phone a number that’s in an email or text, it’s risky.Co - op BankCo - op6 yearsThe fraud team at Coop bank were really helpful, top notch service!Co - operative Bank6 yearsFraud team from Coop Smile account office.Coop Smile Fraud Investigation Team6 yearsLooks like 0345 600 0529 belongs to the Co-op Bank Fraud Department, so it should be safe to answer.Co - op Bank6 yearsLegit call from the Co-op Bank Fraud Dept, they wanted to verify an Apple transaction.Co - op BankApple6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from the Co-op Bank fraud department. Really suspicious, so I had to double check everything before giving any info. Definitely made me wary!6 yearsI got a voicemail from a withheld number, which turned out to be the Co-op bank’s fraud hotline. They do this thing where if anything funky pops up on your account, they check it out properly. After confirming who you are with a few security questions, they review your latest transactions to make sure everything’s legit. They were very detailed yet polite throughout. I looked them up because the number isn’t listed on their website and came across this site to confirm. So yeah, this is a legit call, nothing to worry about!Co - op Bank6 yearsThis number belongs to Co-Op Bank. When they spot something odd on your account, they give you a ring to double check a few of the latest transactions. They don’t ask tricky security questions, just confirm who you are and whether those transactions look right. If you feel unsure, you can always call the bank back on your regular phone banking line to have them verify everything properly. Honestly, it’s nothing to panic about - they’re just making sure everything on your account is legit to keep fraud at bay.Co - Op Bank6 yearsGot a call today, no caller ID, left a voicemail saying it was from Coop security asking me to ring back this number. It was Sunday too, bit odd.Coop Security Checks6 yearsSo, I called what I thought was the normal number for the Co-op Bank fraud team, but not the 0345 6000 529 from the message I got. Turns out, they already knew about the contact I'd received, and a payment that didn't work earlier got approved after that. Bit confusing, really.Co - op6 yearsGot a call from an unknown number right after I made an online order. Didn't call back or anything. Could’ve been my bank, but not sure. Decided to report it just to be safe. I’m sticking to the advice of never calling numbers I don’t know.7 yearsI actually got a legit call from Coop Bank, but I ended up hanging up and ringing them back on my own. When I called the number ending in 352, I spoke to the same lady who answered when I used the website’s contact number, so I made sure they had a note that I’d been reached out to.Coop7 yearsI just looked up that number on Barclay's website and they said they don’t know anything about 03456000529. They asked if I typed it in right. If you’re certain it’s correct, they suggest giving them a ring to report it so they can help protect you against scams. Their helpline is open 24/7. The number to call is 0345 734 5345.Barclay7 yearsWe got a message on our landline answer machine and had to listen to it a few times before catching the name and number. It was someone saying they were calling from the Barclay card security office. The guy spoke really politely and wanted me to call him back. Honestly, I’m pretty sure it’s a scam since that’s not even my bank.Barclaycard9 yearsThis number is definitely legitimate! I wouldn’t recommend blocking it, as it belongs to the fraud detection team at Co-op Bank. They look into any suspicious activity that might involve your bank account. It’s worth having a chat with them. If you’re feeling uneasy, just give a ring to the number found on the reverse of your card instead.Co - op Bank10 yearsIt appears that this number belongs to the fraud department for Co-op Bank, also known as Smile. If you have any doubts, it's best to call the main line of the bank and they can connect you to the correct department for assistance.Co - op BankSmile10 yearsI received an email that seemed to be from the Co-op bank, instructing me to ring a number regarding some transactions on my account. The catch? I don’t even have an account with the Co-op! Plus, the number provided doesn’t match any official contact for them. Clearly a scam, so steer clear and don’t pick up!Co - opPlusSubmit Your Own Report (0345 600 0529)
