03456017206 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 03456017206 👆 is reported as a mixed bag with genuine HSBC calls and numerous scam alerts. Some users confirm it as a legitimate HSBC number used for high-value transaction verifications and mortgage-related matters, while many others warn it’s frequently spoofed by fraudsters trying to extract personal info through pressure and security questions. Callers often have foreign accents, know some personal details, yet refuse to provide proper identification or follow up with emails. Multiple reports mention the caller’s refusal to disclose reason before verification and suspicious voicemail demands with tight deadlines. HSBC has reportedly confirmed the number is real but also that scammers exploit it, so experiences vary between authentic business calls and phishing attempts. Vigilance is advised given the conflicting nature of feedback.
Reports on phone number 03456017206
5 monthsSomeone called saying they were from HSBC about some problem. I ended the call straight away and phoned HSBC directly. They told me they never make calls like that for those sorts of issues.HSBC6 monthsI found out this is an actual HSBC number. They use it to double check big transactions or when you’re cashing a cheque. If you have HSBC telephone banking, just ring the number on your card and after confirming who you are, they’ll tell you if it’s legit.HSBC8 monthsGot a call about some “mortgage offer” but they wouldn’t explain anything else until I confirmed the last part of my postcode. When I asked why they even rang about it, especially since I never asked for anything, they wouldn’t say a thing unless I gave out more info. Sounds dodgy to me, no legit bank would ring up and try to talk about this stuff out of the blue.9 monthsGot a voicemail from someone saying they were with a mortgage company, but I didn’t quite get the name. They said there was some problem with my application and they needed more info. Pretty sure it’s a complete scam.9 monthsGot a call today about setting up my mortgage but it turned out to be a total scam. Watch out for these kinds of dodgy calls!11 monthsGot a ring from 03456017206 earlier claiming to be from HSBC. They mentioned they'd already dropped me an email about something.HSBC11 monthsThis number really belongs to HSBC UK Bank, and they typically use it when confirming big transactions or approvals.HSBC UK Bank12 monthsGot a call three times from someone claiming to be with HSBC, but they mucked up my name on two of those calls. Was trying to get info that they either didn't need or should have already had on file. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.HSBC1 yearLooks like a real HSBC number but judging by what others have said, scammers must be faking it somehow.HSBC1 yearI’ve had quite a few chats with the HSBC UK Implementation Team about some business stuff on HSBCnet. Definitely a legit call, nothing dodgy about it.HSBC UK Implementation CrewHSBCnet2 yearsI don’t think this is a scam. Looks like it’s an HSBC customer service line, although it might be used as a random caller ID or something like that.HSBC2 yearsThis morning I got a call on my home phone, and then they rang me again on my mobile.2 yearsLegit call from HSBC, no joke.HSBC2 yearsI got a call from a number claiming to be HSBC, but when I checked through their app, they said it’s not theirs. They told me to double-check with HSBC directly. Funny thing is, I only started getting these calls after I tried to get insurance through HSBC, so it looks like somehow these scammers managed to grab my details from them initially. Really dodgy situation!HSBC2 yearsIgnore anyone saying this isn’t a scam, it definitely is. The folks claiming it’s legit are probably scammers themselves, trying to trick you into picking up. Just don’t bother answering this number - it’s scammers calling from India.India2 yearshe said he’d ring me back sometime later.2 yearsI got a call from HSBC's FX department about a foreign exchange deal I did, and it turned out to be genuine.HSBC2 yearsHad a proper chat lined up with HSBC, definitely legit.HSBC2 yearsGot a text saying HSBC would ring me in about 30 minutes, then the phone actually rang. Total scam.HSBC2 yearsI’ve gotten a few calls from this 03456017206 number, all about HSBC. There was even a voicemail left too.HSBC2 yearsGot a call from a number pretending to be HSBC chat line, but it wasn’t them at all. Total scam and fraud, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it. Watch out folks!HSBC2 yearsThe phone rang for just a few seconds, then they cut it off.2 yearsI highly doubt it's actually HSBC on the line. I'd say watch out and stay cautious.HSBC2 yearsThe number showing up is from HSBC, so I've seen it before.HSBC2 yearsThis number popped up in my missed calls, and I’ve heard it’s been flagged for scam activity.2 yearsGot a call from this number saying they were from HSBC. They started asking weird questions about my security which made me feel uneasy. When I requested something in writing to prove it was legit, they just hung up on me. Definitely seems like a scam to me, but what’s really concerning is that they seem to have some of my personal details already.HSBC2 yearsSaid they were from HSBC but it was a total scam.HSBC2 yearsGot a call from some bloke with a thick accent who said he was from HSBC. He actually knew my full name, which was a bit worrying. When I asked what the call was about, he told me I had to answer some security questions first before he could explain. I wasn’t having any of it and said no. Then he said he'd send me a letter with the info. Of course, no letter ever arrived from HSBC. Total scam, watch out!HSBC2 yearsGot a voicemail from this number earlier, and it really threw me off since the caller knew my first name and wanted me to ring them back before 1:30 this afternoon. I usually never pick up when I don’t recognise the number. Luckily, I checked your site and found out it’s a scam - so cheers for the heads up!2 yearsToday I got a call from someone saying they were from HSBC about my mortgage. Before talking, they wanted me to confirm some security questions. When I asked what matter it was regarding my mortgage, they said they couldn’t say anything until I verified my passwords. I told them I hadn’t received any prior notice about this and asked them to email me a confirmation so I could verify with HSBC myself. Surprise surprise, no email ever arrived.HSBC2 yearsI can confirm this call is genuine, it’s from HSBC’s back office team.HSBC2 yearsHad a real HSBC ring me about moving some money.HSBC2 yearsGot a call from this number and they were trying to get me to give my postcode and personal details. I said no and googled the number straight away, only to realise it was a total scam.2 yearsYesterday, I noticed a missed call from this number, and today I picked up when they rang again. It was a lady with a strong accent which made it tough to catch what she was saying. She claimed to be from HSBC and even mentioned my business account, asking about signatories and who she was talking to. I didn’t give my name, thinking if she was genuine, she’d already know. The chat went in circles, and I told her I couldn’t understand her properly and suspected it wasn’t really the bank but some sort of scam. After that, she just hung up.HSBC2 yearsThey called me 3 times and left 2 messages that made no sense at all!2 yearsPhone call was a total bank fraud scam. Stay alert everyone!2 yearsTotal scam, watch out!2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HSBC but it was definitely a scam. Don’t trust them!HSBC2 yearsdefinitely a scam call2 yearsSaid to be from HSBC, but I couldn’t make out what they were saying because of a strong Asian accent. I then reached out to HSBC through live chat on my banking app. They told me this wasn’t a genuine call from them and my account was completely fine. Definitely a scam call, so watch out. Some comments below say it’s safe, but trust me, it isn’t. Always get in touch with your bank using the number on your card or the live chat feature on the app to be sure.HSBC2 yearsGot a proper call from HSBC about a transaction. Felt a bit iffy at the start, so rang my nearby branch to double check and they said it was legit.HSBC2 yearsThis is definitely HSBC calling, not some kind of scam.HSBC2 yearsThis number feels dodgy, like a scam. It shows up with names and a private listing, but the caller had an accent and struggled with English. We only sent a cheque, so how did they manage to contact us?2 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent, he asked for me by name and said he was calling from HSBC. He gave me some 6-letter code and told me to ring my bank to check if it was legit. Then he even tried to give me the HSBC phone number to call! Total scam, don’t fall for it.HSBC2 yearsGot two calls earlier from a bloke with an Asian sounding accent who knew my name and was asking if I had an HSBC account. I just ended the calls straight away.HSBC2 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from HSBC, telling me to confirm my personal info for security reasons. I said no and then phoned HSBC using the number from their official app. Turns out, they had no record of any call to me.HSBC2 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent, she wanted me to tell her ex to ring HSBC about some stuff on her bank account. She even dropped her own name. She gave me another number to pass on (03457404404), but it wasn’t the same one she called me from. Bit fishy if you ask me.HSBC3 yearspicked up this call and they seemed to know quite a bit, said they were ringing from HSBC. My phone signal was rubbish so I told them to try my landline instead. They asked for the number and I said they’ve already got it, then they repeated it back to me (and it was right). When’s best to call, they asked. I said now cause I was in. They said they’d ring me back, then just cut off. It’s been a day now and still no call on my landline.HSBC3 yearsSounds like a scam from HSBC to me.HSBC3 yearsThey wanted to know my name but I refused to tell them.3 yearsSome bloke said he was from the bank and wanted to ask me some security stuff. I told him I was a bit busy and asked if he could ring me tomorrow instead. He said alright and said he’d send a letter, but I haven’t got anything yet.3 yearsGot a dodgy call claiming to be from HSBC, they wanted to talk to me but I just said NO way!HSBC3 yearsScam call, claimed to be from HSBC.HSBC3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from HSBC - total scam, don't trust it.HSBC3 yearsGot a ring from this number bright and early at 6am, so I just blocked it straight away.3 yearsMy phone bill got hit with a charge from this number, even though all they did was ring me up and leave a voicemail.3 yearsGot a call on 21/3/24 around 12:35pm from someone with a foreign accent claiming to be from HSBC. They said my bank account had been accessed and gave me some numbers to ring back and reference codes to say. Totally felt like a scam so I just hung up. They also tried the landline where my answerphone came on, and my mobile too, leaving a rushed message that sounded like they wanted me to panic.HSBC3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be HSBC, sounded like they had an Indian accent. They knew some stuff about me and tried to ask me security questions, but I didn’t give any answers. I phoned HSBC myself afterwards and they said they hadn’t been in touch. Looks like a scam to me.HSBC3 yearsJust filled out a form to shut my HSBC bank account and now getting calls from someone saying they’re from HSBC… bit odd if you ask me. Feels like maybe someone on the inside is in the know, makes you think 🤔HSBC3 yearsGot a phone call from someone saying they were from HSBC about my account. They mentioned my full name and asked me to confirm some details over the phone - they gave me part of my birthday and part of my postcode, and wanted me to fill in the rest. Then they asked me to confirm the balance on one of my accounts, which I did. They said it was about an account problem. After reading some comments here, I rang HSBC's fraud team on a number I knew was legit. They checked and confirmed the call was genuinely from HSBC.HSBC3 yearsI reckon this was a real call from HSBC's fraud team based abroad, the woman had an Asian accent. I say 'reckon' because she wasn’t very helpful and wouldn’t share any info unless I confirmed my identity first. I wasn’t comfortable doing that, so I ended up calling HSBC myself who confirmed it was legit. That said, scammers can fake numbers easily, so other calls from this same number might still be dodgy.HSBC3 yearsLegit call from HSBC, no doubt.HSBC3 yearsGot a call after my bank sent me a text, which came after I went to the branch. Not totally sure if it’s legit or not. They wanted to chat about my money, but I only discuss that stuff in person at a pre-booked meeting. Not 100% sure but better to be safe than sorry!3 yearsSame here Mon 22 Jan: No message left, so I just blocked the number using BT's call block service.BT3 yearsThis lady claimed to be from HSBC saying I was owed some money back. She wanted details from my bank account to prove my identity. I refused and said I’d call HSBC myself, then she just ended the call. What felt fishy was she knew my middle name, something I never share with anyone. Makes me wonder which database they’ve managed to get hold of. Totally a scam, no doubt about it.HSBC3 yearsHey Everyone, this number called me and acted like they knew everything about me. I told them I’d call HSBC directly. Before I got the chance, they phoned my folks’ landline where I was staying, saying they had to speak with me urgently before 1pm. I called HSBC and they confirmed that the number isn’t theirs - it’s a scam. I’m really puzzled why this number is still active and hasn’t been reported or shut down by the police? Cheers, DHSBC3 yearsReally legit call from HSBC to verify an ISA transfer I asked for. They asked me for some details like my DOB bits, some of my postcode, and overdraft info. Didn’t ask me anything about my online or phone banking passwords. The woman on the line actually knew the exact balance in my HSBC ISA.HSBCHSBC ISA3 yearsJunk call.3 yearsGot a voicemail from this number telling me to ring back before 1.30pm with a given reference. Didn’t bother calling back since the reference, the deadline, and the phone number itself raised loads of alarm bells. Mates who work in that field agreed it sounds dodgy. Have blocked the number now.3 yearsGot a call pretending to be from HSBC. They already knew my name and birthday, which was a bit worrying. But then they started asking for personal details, which HSBC never does, so it’s definitely a scam.HSBC3 yearsGot a second ring from this number today. They actually left a voicemail asking me to ring back. Tried to make out what the lady was saying, but her accent was quite thick and hard to follow, although she did say my full name. Since I don’t have them saved, I’m never gonna call back - even if they claim I’ve hit the big prize!3 yearsnope3 yearsSCAM - THEY WERE TRYING TO GET ME TO ANSWER SECURITY QUESTIONSFRAUD ALERT3 yearsGot a call from this number, the person said they were from HSBC about some transaction on my account. They insisted on verifying my details first. I told them I’d ring HSBC directly on the official helpline and asked for a reference number. They gave me one, but when I checked with HSBC, they had no record of the call and didn’t recognise the reference. Pretty sure it was a scam call trying to fish for info.HSBC3 yearsGot a call on my mobile from 0345 6017206 saying they were from HSBC. Hubby answered and said I wasn’t around, seems like a dodgy call to me. Probably a scam.HSBC3 years!!!!WARNING!!!! Got a call pretending to be from HSBC saying “We’re phoning about a transaction on your account”. Just hang up, it’s a scam trying to steal your security details so they can hack your account. I rang HSBC myself and they said they hadn’t called me. Scary thing is they already had my name and date of birth, so they must have some list which could trick others into thinking it’s genuine. BE CAREFUL!HSBC3 yearsGot a call from this number and it felt a bit dodgy, so I didn’t share any info. Rang up HSBC and they said they never made that call. Pretty sure it was a scam, the woman on the line sounded like she had an accent.HSBC3 yearsI double-checked with HSBC through their live chat, and they said this number is legit. They rang me about moving my ISA to a different bank. They just asked for my date of birth, postcode, and how much my overdraft was on my account. No dodgy questions about passwords or anything suspicious.HSBC3 yearsGot a dodgy call pretending to be from HSBC, sounded like it came from some international call centre.HSBC3 yearsFrom my experience, HSBC is just a scam. If my bank really needed to get in touch, they’d send a letter. I wouldn’t trust any calls claiming to be from banks, not at all.HSBC3 yearsThis is actually HSBC, but from their foreign exchange back office. It’s not some kind of scam.HSBC3 yearsGot a couple of calls from folks saying they were HSBC. The number looked nearly the same as the real one, but after checking with the bank they said it’s not theirs.
