Reports on phone number 07897016631
10 monthsGot a message from this number claiming to be Co-op Bank, asking me to confirm a payment I supposedly made, including the amount and who it was for. I responded with a Yes to approve the payment. After looking into it, I found others had similar experiences - looks like it’s just an added security step for online transactions. Honestly, sending a cheque would have been simpler! I’m old enough to remember those days!Co - op Bank1 yearGot a text off this number but I didn’t just jump straight in. I dialled 159 first and got through to the Co-Op bank pretty quickly. They told me it was a genuine message, part of extra security before they’ll do any money transfers. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to call 159 yourself. I’m rating this number as neutral since people should do their own digging.Co - Op1 yearThe number is actually from the Coop's fraud department, contacting you to confirm if a payment they find 'odd' should be allowed. The trouble is, since this number doesn’t show up on the phone as familiar, it’s easy to think it’s a scam call. I made sure by ringing the official Coop helpline number printed on my debit card. It’s kind of strange that the warnings from the Coop’s fraud team cause more doubt than the actual payment itself!Coop2 yearsGot a call from Co-op bank, they checked and said the payment was legit. Didn’t ask for any personal info, so it felt pretty secure.Co - operative Bank2 yearsGot a missed call with a voicemail telling me to press 1 to confirm some kind of transaction. Didn’t do anything, just called back. Some bloke with a strange accent picked up and kept saying he hadn’t called me, even when I kept pushing him on it. Told him to stop calling me and then blocked the number.2 yearsI got a text from 07897016631 supposedly from Co-op Bank, saying I’d requested a payment and gave details like the amount, account number and sort code. They claimed there were concerns about fraud since the money was moving to another Co-op account, asking me to reply YES to confirm or NO to cancel. Problem is, that money was transferred between my accounts a week ago already. When I called the bank to check, they said no such message was sent from them. While dealing with this, I also got an automated call from 0281036046 warning about suspicious activity on my account.Co - op BankCo - op3 yearsThis looks like a legit Co-op Bank number. They use it to send texts when checking important things, like moving money between accounts. Pretty sure it’s just their way to confirm stuff with customers.Co - op Banking3 yearsI rang cooperative bank myself to check this number out. They said they frequently switch numbers to stop fraud people, so it seems like an ordinary mobile line. If you're not sure, best to give 159 a quick call.Cooperative Bank3 yearsJust got a text from this number right after I made a big payment on my smile.co.uk account. They didn’t ask for any personal info, just wanted me to confirm if I was the one who made the payment to prevent any fraud. I looked up the number before replying and it looks like it’s connected to smile/co-operative bank. I’ve had no problems since, so I’m pretty sure it’s legit.4 yearsI received a dodgy recorded message regarding my bank, urging me to call another number to verify a payment. Definitely sounds like a scam to me!4 yearsI got one of those automated calls saying there’s some fraud on my bank account. They told me to ring a different number to either approve or cancel a payment. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsI’m guessing this number might be from co-op bank? Fingers crossed anyway!Co - op BankSubmit Your Own Report (07897 016631)
