Received a couple of calls on my mobile and then my landline from someone claiming to be from Halifax about a banking issue. They wanted me to verify my date of birth and postcode but skipped the usual security checks. When I probed a bit more about the purpose of the call, she stated that she couldn't divulge any information without my confirmation. I pressed on, suspecting it might be something serious like a security breach on my account, but she kept insisting on getting my details first. Thankfully, I managed to rush over to my local branch where they thoroughly checked all my accounts-nothing amiss on my end. They informed me that their fraud department has been overwhelmed with similar calls this week. - suspected scammer: Halifax/Lloyds

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Halifax, asking for my date of birth and various phone numbers. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call from this number, and they requested my date of birth along with my postcode. I didn’t engage with them and simply terminated the call.

From what I gather, folks seem to receive calls on both their mobiles and landlines a couple of times daily. It’s often best to just overlook them altogether - either don't pick up or simply hang up immediately.

A few days back, I received a missed call accompanied by a voicemail. The fella on the line claimed to be from Lloyds Bank, discussing a business transaction. It was immediately clear to me that I was dealing with a scam artist, and I was quite eager for them to give me another ring. Well, today I had the pleasure of receiving two calls in quick succession-one on the landline and another on my mobile, both within two minutes! The first chap spoke with a noticeable Asian accent and introduced himself as Dan: "Hello," I answered. "Hello, this is Lloyds Bank. May I speak with Mr Rich XXXXX?" came his query. "May I ask who's on the line?" I replied. "This is Dan," he said. "Greetings, this is Mr Rich XXXXX. How may I assist you today?" "Before we proceed, may I take down some details to verify I’m speaking to the right individual?" he asked. "By all means, Dan. Go ahead," I encouraged. "Could you provide me with your postcode?" "Of course! Would you prefer to start by giving me a kiss?" I cheekily responded. "Um, can I have your postcode, please?" he insisted again. "Did my first response escape you? Let me articulate it more clearly: would you fancy sucking my todger? I promise I shan’t finish in your mouth." "I don’t understand you," replied Dan. "I’d like to have relations with you orally," I elaborated. Suddenly, the line went silent. What a cheeky bugger trying to extract my private details without so much as a proper introduction! I reckon Dan ought to up his game or perhaps reconsider his line of work entirely. Suffice it to say, I was rather miffed that he’d hung up just as I was warming to the conversation. One had to appreciate the effort, though. I hoped he might ring back; he seemed quite delightful, really! Just as I settled back in my armchair preparing to catch up on S4 E13 of 24 (I know, I’m a bit behind), my mobile rang again-thankfully, I didn’t have to shift from my comfy seat! "Hello," I answered. "Hello, this is Lloyds Bank. May I speak with Mr Rich XXXX?" Well, well, the audacity for a second round! Did Dan not share that I was rather stubborn? This time, it was a woman with a similar accent. Perhaps she had some formidable tricks up her sleeve from her days in a P.O.W. camp-I was keen to find out! "One moment, I shall fetch him. May I inquire who’s calling?" "Lloyds Bank," she reiterated. "Blimey! You’ve just repeated yourself; I’m sure you've got a proper name?" "This is Sarah," she replied. (Who on earth dubs an Asian lady 'Sarah'?) "Hang on, I’ll get him for you!" I decided to let out a bellow before switching to my most refined accent-no idea why I opted for that! "Hello, how may I assist you?" I said in my poshest voice. "Yes, may I take some details from you before we proceed?" she asked. "Only if you share a bit of information with me first," I countered. "Sure! What’s your postcode?" she enquired. "Alright, I’ll go first, and you can follow-none of this holding back now. How about I take you from behind with my appendage?" "I didn’t quite catch that," Sarah replied, puzzled. "I’d like to play with your hidden treasures," I clarified. "Could you repeat that, sir?" "Certainly! I wish to have you in a rather intimate manner!" And once more, we were disconnected. -Caller claiming to be from Lloyds Bank.

I keep getting calls like 3 or 4 times daily from someone pretending to be Lloyds Bank, saying they need to talk about a personal matter. When I rang Lloyds up, they had a recorded message on hold saying they'd never call you out of the blue. Then these scammers sent me a letter which looked kinda fake but tried to seem official, with the same number, claiming I was behind on my American Express and needed to give my debit card info right away. Since I don’t even have an AMEX, I just tossed it straight in the bin.

Same experience as everyone else here, and I checked with Lloyds Bank who did say the number is definitely theirs.

I've been getting calls on both my mobile and home phone at least two times daily. Whenever I'm home and I ignore the mobile, the landline follows up straight away. They’re claiming to represent my mortgage provider, with folks named Michael and Sue reaching out. They don’t take a blind bit of notice when I inform them I’ll be reporting them to the authorities if they persist. Interestingly, their accents aren’t even Indian.

This number seems to ring me weekly, leaving messages that mention my name while claiming to be from Lloyds Bank and various other organisations. I've taken the step to block the calls, yet I'm still inundated with voicemails. It's quite frustrating!

I received a call this evening (28/10/15) from someone claiming to be from Halifax. However, I find it quite hard to believe, as they’ve never attempted to contact me before, especially not at 7 in the evening. I decided it was best to hang up! - Caller: Gal

I'm receiving incessant calls each day from this Indian chap who keeps mentioning my name. The moment I inquire about how he got hold of my details, he abruptly disconnects the line. Quite perplexing, to say the least!

Absolutely staggering! This number, 0808 145 0360, has been pestering me relentlessly - I reckon it’s at least six times this week, hitting me up once daily at all sorts of odd hours. Yesterday, I received a voicemail and, blimey, it actually used my name! It spoke about some so-called 'business matter’ and urged me to get in touch during proper business hours. To top it off, I got another call from them today, despite having it on my reject list. What a nuisance! - caller: 0808 145 0360

They won't stop ringing me asking for someone who ain't even at this address. We've put our number on the "do not call" list cause of privacy and health reasons but they still hassle us. Next time I'll just answer with something like "I've completed it, but there's blood everywhere" or maybe ask them when they last talked to the person they're after and how close they are!

Received a call from this number earlier. It seems they’re now pretending to represent Halifax. Best to steer clear of them. - caller: Scam alert

I received a rather unwelcome phone call from this number yesterday at precisely 8 a.m. The individual on the line presented themselves as being from Halifax and proceeded to request some of my personal information for what they described as ‘security verification’. When I inquired about the purpose of the call, they adamantly insisted that they couldn’t proceed without confirming my details first. I found this rather odd and rather intrusive, especially at such an early hour, and when I expressed my discontent, they promptly ended the call. In light of this, I decided to reach out to Halifax’s customer service directly using a legitimate UK number to express my concerns about the dreadful service I had received. The representative, who was absolutely charming and helpful, speculated that it might be a partner firm conducting some form of survey. After relaying my frustration about the abrupt end to our conversation, they assured me that they’d take steps to ensure that this number would be barred from contacting me in the future. However, much to my dismay, I received yet another call from 08081450360 this morning at 8:05 a.m. This time, I firmly instructed them never to call me again before I hung up myself. I promptly reached out to Halifax customer service once again, and the attentive representative requested I allow them to look into the matter. This interaction led me to this site, where I have gone through various similar experiences shared by others, which have left me believing that this could potentially be a scam. I’ve since blocked the number and am hopeful that by informing Halifax, they might help us collectively rid ourselves of this nuisance. I plan to bring this thread to their attention once they return my call regarding the issue. - caller: 0808 145 0360

My phone buzzed with a call claiming to be from Lloyds bank, but I wasn’t having any of their 'security checks'. Shortly after, the same number rang my landline-0808 145 0360. Seems shady to me, especially since others have noted that this number has also been linked to a supposed Halifax call. Quite the dodgy business! - number: 0808 145 0360

I've been receiving these calls claiming to be from British Gas, insisting that I owe them money. The thing is, I don’t even have an account with them! The chap on the other end, who goes by 'John', sounds more like he's from India than anywhere near the UK. Honestly, it's quite the farce. I’ve had enough of these pests and have finally started screening my calls so the ringing doesn’t bother me. Yet, I still seem to get about six of these calls each day!

I’ve been inundated with two phone calls daily from 0808 145 3060 / 3066 since the week began. I read somewhere that these could potentially be a scam or linked to Lloyds Bank, which is amusing as I've never had an account with them. So, I took the initiative to reach out to Lloyds directly, and they reassured me it was indeed a legitimate call, although it seems they may be searching for the previous holder of my number. I’ve been receiving numerous calls intended for the prior owner ever since I took on this number two years ago. Then there’s the matter of a text I received from "LloydsBank" just yesterday, requesting a payment. Oddly enough, there was no visible number attached to that message; it just appeared as LloydsBank, spelled precisely that way. The chap I spoke to at Lloyds seemed quite composed and advised me not to panic unless they addressed me by name. When I clarified that the message didn’t start with "Dear Miss x," he assured me it was nothing to be concerned about. If you do find yourself in a similar situation with Lloyds, you can have your number removed from their records if you truly believe you owe them nothing. - It’s supposedly from Lloyds collection/debt recovery.

I've been receiving calls from this number, so I thought I'd pick up one time. Turns out, it's linked to the Lloyds Banking Group. If you're a customer of Halifax, Birmingham Midshires, or any of their other associated banks, this is their collections team reaching out. They're only going to ring you if you've got outstanding debts or have fallen behind on payments. Honestly, I'd have preferred a nuisance call! This number seems to be in use by various call centres around the globe that handle collections for Lloyds. They could be calling from anywhere, yet it's always this same number that pops up. If you try to return the call, you'll just get a pre-recorded message. However, if you call from a number that's in their database, they'll know you've attempted to get in touch. Remember, you’re under no obligation to share personal information if you're not convinced about the caller's identity. I always suggest asking for a contact number to reach them back or searching for a local office number online. It's best to speak to a real person to validate who you're dealing with and ask them to ring you back at their expense. But honestly, if it’s a scammer after my bank details, they can try all they like. Unless they're willing to clear my overdraft and debts, they won't see a penny from me! Stay safe and just ignore these sorts of calls. - Caller: 08081450360 Lloyds Bank Group

Hello! I recently received a call from an 080 number where I ended up sharing my date of birth and postcode, along with some details about my income. I'm a bit concerned about the implications of this. Could anyone shed some light on how this might impact me? Cheers! - Caller: Tadek

I received a staggering 20 missed calls, which prompted me to finally pick up the phone. I greeted them with a polite "hello," only to be met with an eerie silence. After a brief pause, they simply ended the call. This led me to power down and restart my phone, as I’d heard tales of these sorts of calls potentially being able to tap into future conversations. Fast forward to today, and I got another call from an Asian woman who requested to speak with me. I confirmed it was indeed me on the line. She claimed she was calling from Lloyds Bank and requested my date of birth for verification purposes. I informed her that I had closed my account three months prior and, frankly, had no intentions of opening another anywhere anytime soon. To my surprise, she insisted my account was still active and had been used that very morning. She was adamant about needing urgent verification that it was me. I reiterated my position, stating that my account has been closed, but I would gladly pop into the local branch to sort things out directly. However, she insisted it wasn't necessary and claimed she could confirm my identity over the phone. I responded politely that I would prefer to visit Lloyds after work to clarify the situation with them and provide them the number to confirm that my account was indeed shut. Fingers crossed, this is the last I’ll hear of them! - Caller claimed to be from "Lloyds," but I suspect otherwise.

How do we put an end to these individuals and their antics? Is there anyone capable of tracing them? They claimed to be from the fraud squad, stating that they would remove the number from their list (really?).

They’ve been calling all day, so I finally picked up. The guy asked for my dad by name, and I just told him he’d have more luck contacting him with a ouija board since my dad’s been gone for over a decade now. Clearly, someone sold them an ancient contact list or something!

Keeps ringing me, gonna block it. They say they’re from Lloyds, but we don’t even hold an account there. When I asked what it was for, the bloke said he couldn’t say unless I gave more details. I said no and blocked the number.

Received a call from this number previously and decided to ignore it. The second time around, I took the plunge after spotting some info here. Turns out it was Halifax. I let them know I wouldn’t be engaging with their call and promptly ended the conversation. - Caller: Halifax

I've been getting calls from this number about four times every week, purporting to be from Halifax. I've since taken to disregarding these calls completely. It strikes me as rather dodgy, especially as they choose to ring me on a Sunday of all days, and they outright refuse to disclose any information about themselves or their purpose for wanting my personal details. I'd wager it's nothing more than a scam masquerading as a legitimate call from Halifax!

Received a call yesterday from someone purporting to be from Lloyds. They insisted on getting my date of birth and postcode before revealing the purpose of their call. I informed them that I don’t even have an account with Lloyds, and they promptly hung up on me. Fast forward to today (on a Sunday, mind you), I received another call from what sounded like the same individual, this time claiming to be with HSBC. Once again, I don’t bank with HSBC, so I decided to provide them with some fabricated information. They told me they'd noticed some unusual activity concerning my expenditure and proceeded to ask for my account number, sort code, and full name to validate their claim. I played along, stating that I couldn’t recall my HSBC account number. I then asked them to hold while I fetched my statements. I kept them on the line for a good ten minutes before it dawned on them, and they hung up 😁. - caller: 0808 145 0360

Got loads of calls from this number 08081450360 claiming to be Lloyds Bank but the woman on the line had a really hard to understand asian accent. She's called me so many times now.

I've received approximately half a dozen calls today, and as a disabled woman, I find this rather frustrating and completely unnecessary.

Really convincing and won’t give up. They keep ringing me nearly every day for the past month. Just like what everyone else says. You can’t get any info from them unless you hand over all your details. 17/07/15

I'm curious to find out who owns this number.

I receive roughly half a dozen calls each day, but we choose not to pick up the phone for any of them.

I'm really tired of receiving calls from this number. They sound so believable that you could easily fall for their ploys.

This number keeps ringing me incessantly, around twenty times a day-absolutely infuriating! I’ve taken to ignoring the calls completely at this point.

i get calls every single day from someone claiming to be from halifax, but they never even say my name right. the annoying bit is ive never had an account with halifax at all. they ring me up early morning and also late at night, proper irritating.

Received a call earlier today from someone purporting to be from Lloyds Bank, but I recognised straight away that it was a scam - I don't even have an account with them! Inquisitively, I asked them for their location and the company they represented, but they just ignored my questions. If anyone has any leads on how to trace these individuals, I would truly appreciate your insights!

this number has rung me like 20 times over the past month, i just dont pick up on strange numbers, hopefully theyll give up eventually

I've received three calls from this number on my mobile and one to my parents' phone bright and early, just before 8 am-hardly the sort of time a reputable bank in the UK would ring anyone, it sounds like they were still scoffing their breakfast! They claimed it was urgent to discuss a banking matter. So, I popped down to my local Lloyds branch today to get to the bottom of this. Turns out, there’s absolutely no relation to them whatsoever-they haven't placed any calls to me at all. Definitely a scam! Later this evening, at 8:15 pm, I got another call from an Indian gentleman asserting he was with Lloyds, wanting to chat about my account. I told him to stop trying to con me, as I'd already confirmed everything with my bank earlier. Now, given that my overdraft limit is maxed out, should they somehow stumble across any funds in my account, do you reckon I could get it back? Haha! Steer clear of this number-total scam alert! The caller had a distinctly Indian accent.

I’ve been hounded by this number repeatedly. Normally, I tend to ignore such calls, but the relentless nature of this one piqued my curiosity. When I eventually picked up, they claimed to be from Lloyds Bank, discussing personal banking matters. They requested my date of birth, and I outright refused to share it-something felt very off about the bloke on the other end. I took to Twitter to complain to Lloyds, who assured me it was a legit call from their collections team. However, I pointed out that a quick Google search reveals a multitude of complaints from others about this number incessantly pestering them, with many not even being affiliated with Lloyds! Now, I'm waiting for a more thorough response from them. - Caller: Allegedly ‘Lloyds Bank’.

They keep ringing saying they're from lloyds, but I never do phone banking so I just won't share any info. Every time I say no, they just cut the call.

I’ve received a call purporting to be from Lloyds Bank, and they were probing me for some personal information!

I keep receiving 3 or 4 calls each day from a woman with an Indian accent who purports to represent Halifax. It’s got to be a scam, doesn’t it?

I'm absolutely fed up with receiving persistent calls from this number, both on my mobile and my landline. I can easily block it on my phone, but unfortunately, there's no way to do the same for my landline. It's quite frustrating!

Just like what others have mentioned, I keep receiving calls at all sorts of odd hours from someone who says they're my bank. It's really wearing me down and I'm absolutely fed up with it now!

I just received a call purporting to be from Halifax, asking for my date of birth as a security measure. Naturally, I requested the last four digits of the account they claimed to be referencing, at which point they abruptly hung up. Shortly after, I saw they attempted to ring my mobile, but they hung up again before I could pick up. Quite suspicious, wouldn’t you agree?

Identifying themselves as Halifax Bank.

The wisest purchase I've ever made was my BT phone featuring an integrated call blocker. It's a brilliant device that allows you to pick and choose which calls to answer or reject outright. Any number that isn’t saved in your contacts has to announce itself before your phone even starts ringing. I got it about five months ago, and I haven’t received a single spam call since! I spent around £80 for a set of four cordless handsets, and it’s been worth every penny.

I've been getting incessant calls from the number 0808 145 0360. Would appreciate it if these could cease. Many thanks!

Received a call on my mobile from this number, and shortly after, my home phone rang too. Turns out it’s one of those bothersome calls linked to Google. - caller: 08081450360

This number keeps ringing me but when I answer, it’s dead silent then they just cut me off. If anyone actually says something next time, I’ve got a few things i really wanna tell them.

I'm absolutely fed up with this number! I've got a call blocking app in place, yet somehow they still manage to slip through the net every now and then. It’s definitely a human on the other end, as I've also taken the liberty of blocking it on my phone. It’s such a nuisance!

I received a rather puzzling call from a woman with a distinct Indian accent, asserting that she was representing the Bank of Scotland. Quite suddenly, she abruptly ended the call.

I've been getting calls on my home phone where these muppets claim to be from my bank. As soon as I refuse to divulge any personal information, they hang up and ring my mobile straight away. It's absolutely relentless, happening two to four times daily, even on weekends, starting at eight in the morning and going on until about half-nine at night! No matter how many times I tell them to bog off, they just won't take a hint. This has been dragging on for what feels like an eternity.

I receive calls from this number as frequently as four times a day.

I’ve had numerous calls from this number to both my home phone and mobile, and now it’s even starting to ring my work phone! They claim to be representing Halifax, but it’s quite suspicious. They've even called on a Sunday, which feels a bit off, doesn’t it? The number is 08081450360.

Received a call claiming to be from the Bank of Scotland. The odd thing is, I don’t even have an account with them! Naturally, I hung up straight away.

They’ve rung me more than fifty times! Finally picked up once, and they wanted my postcode and date of birth. You can imagine my response!

I received a call on my mobile from someone purporting to be from Halifax. Naturally, I was a bit suspicious and asked her to verify her identity. She suggested that I return the call to them. Just after that, my landline rang, and it was the same woman again asking for my details. I called her out as a scammer, demanding to know the purpose of the call. She promised to send a letter with more information. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

Got a message saying it was from lloyds bank and to ring them back. But my bank only ever phones me on my landline. These must be scammers so dont bother calling them back just block the number.

I'm utterly exasperated with the constant calls I keep receiving. It’s becoming rather tiresome!

Received a cold call with no one on the line. On the second attempt, they rang again but only got my voicemail and chose not to leave a message.

This number is absolutely doing my head in! It appears to be associated with my work as well. Who on earth can I turn to with my grievances? It feels like the staff at these banks haven’t got a clue about what’s going on. What on earth are they gaining from hounding us like this?

I keep getting these irritating messages claiming I’ve won a cash prize. They want me to hand over all my bank details, including my PIN! It's absolute nonsense; clearly, it’s just a scam.

I've been receiving constant calls on both my home and mobile phones from this number for the past fortnight. It's becoming quite a nuisance!

It appears that a party is impersonating Halifax bank and is soliciting personal information such as your account number. If you confront them about their authenticity, they often terminate the call abruptly. My advice? Don't engage with them or disclose any sensitive details, as it's likely a scam attempt. Stay vigilant!

I’ve been hearing chatter on various forums about this number, and it appears to be a complete ruse. Folks have checked in with Lloyds, and they’ve confirmed it’s definitely not affiliated with them. 0808-145-0360 Type: Toll-Free Did you receive a call from 0808-145-0360?

Take heed, this number seems to be playing at being whichever bank they fancy! **Caller Company:** 0808 145 0360 **Caller Type:** Scam **Karen MacLean** November 9, 2014, 12:52 pm An Asian-sounding lady asked to speak to my son, who’s currently in Australia. When they wanted me to convey a message, I explained I wasn’t in touch with him, and they hung up abruptly-no grace, no explanation. They rang back almost immediately but disconnected when I answered. Quite harassing! **Caller Company:** Bank of Scotland **Caller Type:** Scam - Caller: 0808 145 0360

They've begun ringing me every day without fail. I picked up once, and the caller claimed to be from Birmingham & Midshires regarding my mortgage. Quite unsettling, considering I actually have a mortgage with them! I mentioned I was busy, and they urged me to ring back, instructing me to change the last digit to reach 08081450369. I opted not to return the call, but upon investigating, I discovered the original numbers were linked to Lloyds Banking Group and B & M. Still, I suspect they might be spoofing numbers, as banks typically don't reach out about such matters. It's becoming quite a nuisance now!
