I was totally caught off guard by this - never thought it was dodgy till I read some of the other comments here. Same thing happened to me, got a letter that looked pretty legit saying I was a foreign tax resident and asking for my info. Then they rang me up and told me to call back on a number that I didn’t know. When I tried, it wasn’t even a real number so I googled it and found this site. Definitely a clever con. Watch out for it!!

I got a letter telling me to call this number to update my US tax ID, so I decided to check it out first. I phoned the main Nationwide line (0345 730 2011) and they said they have been sending out these letters recently. Just to be on the safe side, I called back and asked if this number really belongs to Nationwide, and they assured me that it does.

Got a letter today that began with something like, "You told us you’re a foreign tax resident…" which is totally not true for me. That set off alarm bells straight away, so I looked up the number here and found loads of similar complaints. On the back of the letter there were two other phone numbers: 03457 30 20 and 44 1793 65 67 89. The first number seems clean with no reports, but the second one’s been flagged here before and is apparently a legit Nationwide number. I haven’t phoned any of these myself though, just wary about it all.

Got a call from someone pretending to be from the tax office, trying to get my tax ID. Definitely a scam.

Today I got a voicemail supposedly from Nationwide telling me to ring 0800 169 0050. Something about it didn’t sit right, so I looked up the number and found these comments which confirmed my suspicions. A few months back, I also received a letter printed on old Nationwide headed paper asking me to scan a code and update my National Insurance number, even though I know they already have it (just like the anonymous comment mentioned). I took the letter to my local branch; they seemed a bit confused, copied it down but didn’t seem too worried, although they could see they’d already got the exact info they were asking for.

Got a letter that looked just like it was from Nationwide, asking me to give my National Insurance number to keep my ISA open. The letter said to go to nationwide.co.uk/updatemyni and fill in a secure form, but when I went there it just took me to the main Nationwide homepage. It also told me to scan a QR code to get to the same form, but I didn’t risk it! They included a number for support, which I checked out on here and, no surprise, it turns out to be a scam.
So folks, be careful with letters like this. My ISA only had a tiny bit in it, but lots of people have way more cash saved. They want your NI number to open an ISA in the first place, so there’s no reason to ask for it again like this!

Got a call supposedly from Nationwide, but I rang the bank myself using their official number. They said they never tried to get in touch with me and reckoned it was just a scam.

Got a call at my folks' place, they wanted to speak with me. Claimed to be from Nationwide, but as far as I know, I don't have any active accounts there anymore. Can't tell if it's legit or a scam, but when I looked up the number, it directed me to Nationwide’s fraud alert page.
