I got calls on both my mobile and home phone from someone claiming to be Halifax about a personal banking issue. They wanted me to verify my date of birth and postcode but didn’t follow the usual security checks at all. When I asked what the call was about, the person said they couldn’t tell me unless I gave them my details first. I also asked if it was due to a security problem with my account or something else, but again, they just insisted on my info. Luckily, I managed to get to my local branch in time and they checked all my accounts - everything was fine. The bank said their fraud team has been dealing with loads of these types of calls recently. Pretty sure it was a scam pretending to be Halifax or 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!

Got a call from this number today, they wanted to know my birthday and postcode. I just ignored the questions and ended 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 ago I missed a call and got a voicemail from someone claiming to be Lloyds Bank, talking about a business transaction. I knew straight off it was a scam and was secretly hoping they'd ring back. Sure enough, today I got two calls within a couple minutes - one on the landline and another on my mobile. First up, the guy on the line had an Asian accent and said his name was Dan. Me: "Hello?" Caller: "Hi, this is Lloyds Bank. Can I speak with Mr Rich XXXXX?" Me: "Who’s this?" Caller: "Dan." Me: "Alright, this is Mr Rich XXXXX, how can I help?" Dan: "Can I confirm a few details before we proceed to ensure I’m speaking with the right person?" Me: "Go ahead, Dan." Dan: "Your postcode, please?" Me: "Would you fancy sucking me off?" Dan: "Sorry, the postcode please." Me: "Did you catch that the first time? I’ll say it slower for you. Would you suck me off, promise no mess?" Dan: "I don’t understand." Me: "I want to fuck you in the mouth." Phone cuts off. Honestly, cheeky bastard trying to pinch my info without even the courtesy to blow me first. Dan seriously needs to put some effort in or maybe find a job better suited to his skills. I was a bit gutted Dan hung up so quick - I was just warming up and wanted to carry on. Hopefully, he calls back, seemed like a nice bloke. No sooner had I settled back in to watch season 4 episode 13 of 24 (yeah, I’m behind) my phone rang again. At least it was the mobile, no need to move. Me: "Hello?" Caller: "Hi, Lloyds Bank here. Can I speak to Mr Rich XXXXX?" Me thinking, Dan must have passed the message along. This time a woman with an Asian accent answered - maybe she had some intense tactics from captivity or something. Me: "Hold on, I’ll get him. Who’s calling?" Caller: "Lloyds Bank." Me: "You just said that, surely you have a name?" Caller: "Sarah." (Who calls an Asian woman Sarah?) Me: "One sec." I called my own name and took over the chat in my poshest voice for no reason. Me: "Hello, how can I assist?" Sarah: "May I get your details before proceeding?" Me: "Only if you provide me some info first." Sarah: "Your postcode please." Me: "Sure, but you have to spill yours first, no cheating." Sarah: "Can I have your postcode?" Me: "Alright, I’ll start. Fancy me ploughing your arse with my cock?" Sarah: "Sorry, what was that?" Me: "I want to play in your forbidden hole." Sarah: "Could you repeat that please, sir?" Me: "Yeah, want to bum you with my massive cock." Phone went dead again. Classic - caller saying they’re from Lloyds.

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!

Just got a call this evening around 7pm on 28.10.15 from someone saying they were from Halifax. Never had a call from them before so I reckon it was a fake. Didn't hang around, ended the call straight away! - 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!

Can’t believe how many times I’ve been getting calls from 0808 145 0360 this week - I swear it’s been about six times, at different hours each day. Yesterday I checked my voicemail and the message was creepy, they actually used my name and talked about some ‘business matter’, telling me to call back during work hours. Even though I blocked the number, it still came through again today! - caller ID: 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!

Got a ring from this number today. They said they were from Halifax, but I wouldn’t trust it. Feels very dodgy. Steer clear. - caller: Scam

Got a ring from this number at around 8 in the morning yesterday. The person said they were from Halifax and wanted some of my personal details for “security verification”. When I asked what the call was about, they just kept saying they couldn’t proceed without confirming info first. I told them it felt off and really not on to call so early, then they just ended the call. After that, I rang Halifax’s customer support on their official UK helpline to report the odd call. The agent, who was really friendly and helpful, mentioned it might be a third party doing a survey on Halifax’s behalf. I made it clear I was annoyed about how abruptly the call ended, and they promised to flag the number so it wouldn’t ring me again. However, this morning at 8:05 I got another call from 0808 145 0360. I told them straight up I didn’t want to be contacted again and hung up on them first this time. Right after, I rang Halifax again and the rep kindly asked me to leave the matter with them while they looked into it. That’s how I found this site and read all the similar reports. It’s pretty clear to me this is some kind of scam. I’ve now blocked the number and hope Halifax can help stop these calls for everyone. I’ll be letting them know about this thread when they get back to me.

I got a call on my phone from this 0808 145 0360 number claiming to be Lloyds bank. Didn't feel right, so I said no to any security questions. Then, not long after, my home phone buzzed with the same number popping up. Seems dodgy to me, especially since folks have mentioned this number before but pretending to be Halifax instead. Definitely looks like one of those scam calls.

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!

Since the beginning of the week, I’ve been getting two calls daily from 0808 145 3060 and 3066. I’d heard on here that it might be a scam, or maybe it was Lloyds. Thing is, I’ve never even banked with Lloyds before. So I rang them up myself, and they confirmed it was legit, but apparently, they’re probably trying to reach whoever had my number before me. I get loads of calls meant for the previous owner, even though I’ve had this number for a couple of years now. Yesterday, I also got a text claiming to be from "LloydsBank", asking me to make a payment. The weird bit was, no number showed up for the message, just the name "LloydsBank" exactly like that. When I called Lloyds, the bloke said I shouldn’t worry unless they address you by your name. He asked me if the text said "Dear Miss X" or anything like that, and I told him no, so he said it’s probably nothing to stress about. If you do get calls like this and feel you don’t owe anything, Lloyds can take your number off their list if you contact them - the caller’s usually from their collections or debt recovery team.

Had a few calls from this number and finally picked up to see what it was about. Turns out it's the Lloyds Banking Group debt collection line. If you've got accounts or a mortgage with Halifax, Birmingham Midshires or any firm under Lloyds umbrella, this is the team that contacts you if you’ve missed payments or owe money. Honestly, would’ve preferred some nuisance prank call instead! The tricky bit is this number gets used by lots of call centres worldwide who handle Lloyds debt chasing. So while the number’s always the same, the people calling could be anywhere across the globe. When you call back, it’s usually just an automated message, but if you’re calling from a number they recognise, they know you tried reaching out. If you’re ever in doubt about the caller’s legitimacy, you don't need to give out personal info right away. Best to ask for a callback number or look up a local branch’s contact. Chat to an actual person to confirm who they are, and then have them ring you back - on their dime. And if it's a scammer trying to get my bank details, tough luck. Unless they’re planning to clear my debts, they won’t be getting a penny from me. Stay cautious and just ignore these calls if you’re unsure. Caller number: 08081450360 for Lloyds Bank Group.

Hey, I got a call from an 080 number and ended up giving them my date of birth, postcode, and even said how much I earn. Do you think this could cause any problems for me? Cheers. - caller: Tadek

I ignored like 20 calls from this number, but eventually picked up and just said "hello" nicely. There was complete silence on the other end, then the call ended. I switched my phone off and back on because I've heard scammers can somehow mess with your calls. Today, they rang again and this time a woman with an Asian accent came on claiming to be from Lloyds Bank. She asked for my date of birth to “verify” me. I told her I’d closed my account months ago and have no plans to open another one. She insisted my account was still open and active, even this morning, and said she urgently needed to confirm it was me. I stuck firm saying I was sure it was closed but said I’d visit the branch in person to sort it out if needed. She said no need, I could confirm it over the phone. I politely said after work I’d go to the bank myself and give them the number she called from, so they could confirm my account was closed. Hopefully, that’s the last I hear from these fake “Lloyds” callers!

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.

Got a call from this number before but ignored it, then I saw some comments about it here so I picked up the next time. Turned out to be Halifax. Told them upfront I wasn’t interested in talking and ended the call quickly. - caller: Halifax

I get calls from this number nearly every week, they say they’re from Halifax but I’m not convinced. I’ve just stopped answering now. It’s odd they ring on a Sunday, which makes me think it’s dodgy. Plus, they never want to tell me who they actually are or why they need my info - feels like a classic scam to me. Caller: Halifax scam.

Got a call yesterday from someone saying they were with Lloyds, but they wouldn’t say what it was about until I gave my date of birth and postcode. I told them I don’t even have an account with Lloyds and they just hung up on me. Then today, on a Sunday of all days, the same voice rang again, this time pretending to be from HSBC. Since I don’t bank with HSBC either, I just gave them made-up info. They said there’d been odd spending on my account and asked for my full name, account number and sort code to check. I said I didn’t remember my HSBC details and asked them to hang on while I looked for my bank statements. Left them waiting for like 10 minutes before they finally realised and hung up 😄. The number they called from was 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

This number has rung me three times on my mobile and once to my mum earlier this morning, before 8am! Honestly, which British bank calls so early? Bet they’re still having their morning brew! They said it was urgent about some banking matter. I popped into my local Lloyds branch later on to check and they said they hadn’t contacted me at all. Definitely a scam. Then tonight at 8:15pm, some bloke with an Indian accent rang claiming to be from Lloyds regarding my account. I flat out told him to stop trying to con me, reminded him I’d already been into my branch today. Since I’m already overdrawn, if they somehow find money in my account, can I get it back? Ha! Avoid this number completely - it’s a scammer with a male Indian voice.

I've had this number ring me loads and usually I just ignore it. But after seeing it pop up so often I finally picked up. The person on the line claimed to be from Lloyds Bank about some personal banking matter and wanted my date of birth. I wasn't having any of it, sounded fishy to me. I messaged Lloyds on Twitter about it and they reckoned it was a legit call from their collections department. But then I mentioned all the complaints online about this number and how it’s not always Lloyds calling. Now I’m waiting to hear back from them to clear it up. Caller ID says it’s 'Lloyds Bank' but I’m not convinced.

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.

This number 0808 145 0360 keeps ringing me non stop. Can someone make it stop please? Cheers.

This number rang my house phone first, then gave my mobile a try right after. Looked it up on Google and found out its just some annoying spam caller. - 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!

Got a call on my phone from someone saying they were from Halifax. I asked if it was real and she told me to ring them back. When I called, the landline rang straight away and the same woman was there asking for info. I told her she was a scammer and asked what it was about. She said she’d post a letter to 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!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Halifax, asking for my account details and stuff. When I got a bit suspicious and questioned them, they just ended the call. Best to just ignore these calls and never share your info - sounds like a total scam to me.

People on different forums are saying this number is a total scam; several have checked with Lloyds who confirmed it’s not connected to them at all. 0808-145-0360 Location: Toll Free Have you had a ring from 0808-145-0360?

EV3 May 24, 2014, 6:46 am These scammers pretend they’re from Lloyds Bank and start asking for loads of personal info. I rang Lloyds myself and they told me they’re getting constant complaints about this number and it’s definitely not them. Watch out.

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!
