I attempted to ring the number, but I received a message stating that they couldn't take my call at the moment. Thankfully, it was an 0800 number, so I didn't have to worry about it being something dodgy like a premium rate line. I’d reckon it’s all a bit suspect, best to block it just to be on the safe side.

Got a text saying "Thanks for updating your mobile number, it's been changed. If this wasn't you, ring 08000294269." I never requested any change and had a look at my account online - everything’s the same. Definitely looks like a scam to me.

Got a text from 0800 0294269 asking if I’d recently checked my PIN. If not, they told me to call Barclays on that same number. But since it said there might be charges, I got a bit wary - 0800 numbers are supposed to be free. Plus, I honestly hadn’t checked my PIN at all!

This number is supposedly linked to Barclays, but just keep in mind, scammers can fake these numbers easily. Always remember the two golden rules. One, don’t share any details with cold callers - they might be trying to trick you. Two, don’t just ignore calls claiming to be from your bank - it might be something serious. If you do get a call from your bank, listen carefully, then hang up and ring them back using the phone number on your bank statements or the card itself, but only after your line is free. And if you think it’s a scam, make sure to report it to 'Action Fraud'.

Got a text from 'Barclaycard' 0800 029 4269 at like 4 in the morning saying they've updated my phone number and to call if I didn't make any changes. Seems really fishy, I can't imagine Barclays sending messages that early!

I received a rather alarming text initially claiming that I had been targeted by fraudsters. Shortly after, I got another message expressing gratitude for my new mobile and instructing me to ring 0800 029 4269 if there were any updates to my information. Then yet another notification regarding the supposed fraud, urging me to protect myself through a link to www.barckaycard.co.uk/fraud. This is all happening on my work phone, and just to clarify, our company does not utilise Barclaycard services at all. It all feels extremely dodgy and reeks of a scam!

Got a text saying my Barclaycard number's been changed and to ring if I didn't ask for it. It came with a few legit texts from Barclays before, so it seemed real. I'm super wary about stuff like this (my partner works in cyber security), so I didn't call the number. Asked my partner and he said to just ignore it cos it's a scam. Rang Barclays using the number on my card to check and they confirmed they hadn't done anything like that, it's definitely a scam. Honestly, I'm amazed how they can stick their message onto genuine texts like that.

Got the same text again claiming my phone number got changed along with my address and they’re sending me a new card (a bit fishy if you ask me) pretending to be Barclays. Also had a call from a hidden number with no voicemail right after, and I’m registered with TPS. The number they gave doesn’t show up anywhere in Barclays’ contact list. Best to ignore that number and just delete the message.

Got a message saying 'barclaycard' had updated my address and phone number, with a number to call if it was wrong. I rang them using the contact number on my app and they said they hadn't sent any texts lately. Bit scary cos the original text did come from Barclaycard’s actual number.

I've been receiving texts that purport to be from Barclays' customer support. One message in particular read: "At 23.12.56 on 01/11, a new payee was added from your account ending in 2901 through your mobile banking app. If this action wasn't made by you, kindly ring us on +44 333 200 1014."

I spoke with Barclays customer service on 0800 151 0900 and they said this isn’t a Barclaycard number. The weird thing was when I called 0294269, someone answered claiming to be from the Barclaycard fraud team. I was hesitant to give my card details, so the bloke told me to call the number on the back of my card to confirm it was legit - which you should always do, obviously. But if he was a scammer, why would he say that?! Barclays confirmed no changes had been made to my account. Getting this call at 4am is definitely not what anyone wants.

They advised that if I hadn’t made this change, I should ring them on 0800 029 4269. However, I contacted Barclaycard’s Customer Services directly, and they assured me there’s been no activity on my account and that number definitely doesn’t belong to them.

Received a peculiar message this morning claiming that my Barclaycard was on its way. If I wasn’t expecting it, I was instructed to ring a specific number. Now, I do have Barclaycard accounts, yet I recently received all my new cards, which raised a flag and prompted me to look up the number just to be safe. Interestingly, I've also had a previous text from this same number, which directed me to download some so-called enhanced app. Additionally, there was another message prior to this one, suggesting a fraud check was underway and warning that any further correspondence would originate from a mobile number 07537413147. It’s quite alarming really, as I’ve amassed a series of four messages from this source before encountering this 0800 number. The initial message merely noted that my card was on its way, which made it appear like a legitimate, non-scam communication devoid of any links or phishing tactics!

This morning, I received a rather curious text indicating that my Barclaycard is on its way. It added that if this was unexpected, I should ring the provided number. Though I hold several Barclaycard accounts, I recently received all my new cards, which raised my eyebrows. So, I thought it wise to look up the number. Interestingly, I've had a prior message from the same number that pushed a link to download an enhanced app. There was also another one that mentioned a fraud check, stating that I'd receive further messages from a mobile number, 07537413147. The initial communication from the 0800 number simply stated that my card was being dispatched, making it quite convincing and seemingly benign, without any links or the usual phishing red flags!

My wife recently got a text informing her that her mobile account details had been altered, despite her never actually using that card. It urged her to ring a certain number. Clearly, a scam in play! On two separate occasions, I've received messages purporting to be from my bank, claiming that Lloyds' phone systems had been compromised. These messages appeared to come from an official Lloyds number, the same one they use for my weekly mini statements. The first instance caught me off guard, and I ended up calling the number provided, which linked me to an automated service that sounded strikingly like Lloyds. Luckily, I soon grew suspicious, and my bank was able to lock down my accounts swiftly. Stay vigilant, everyone!

So, I popped down to my local Barclays branch, and they informed me that this number doesn’t even exist in their records. Definitely smells like a scam to me!

Should you come across a message stating, "We have updated the mobile number associated with your account. If this wasn’t initiated by you, please ring us at 0800 029 4269 (charges might be incurred)," it's best to disregard it, as it’s likely a fraudulent attempt.

Indeed, I've received a message from this number requesting confirmation of a change to my mobile number linked to my Barclaycard account.

It prompted me to ring a certain number if I didn’t recognise it, with a warning that call charges could be incurred. Honestly, this reeks of a scam, especially since I’ve never possessed a credit card with Barclays in the first place!

My spouse got a message claiming to be from Barclaycard, suggesting they were dispatching a new card to an address we apparently no longer reside at. They even provided an 0800 number to ring if there were any concerns. Given we neither possess a Barclaycard nor have we changed our address, I suspect this is nothing but a dodgy con.

I received a message from this number claiming to be linked to Barclaycard fraud alerts. The whole thing felt a bit dodgy to me. I couldn't find any number like it listed on the official Barclaycard website, so I decided to err on the side of caution and rang the customer service number directly from their site instead.
