Phone number ☎️ 08082801101 👆 is reported as a phone number associated with Santander's genuine fraud department, used to alert customers of suspicious account activity. Many users confirm its authenticity after independently verifying via official Santander contacts. However, it is also exploited by scammers who spoof the number to conduct sophisticated phishing attempts, including automated calls requesting personal details or PIN codes. Users are urged to exercise caution: never respond directly to unsolicited messages or calls, especially those asking for sensitive information. Always end suspicious calls and contact Santander using the number on the back of your card or official website to confirm legitimacy. This number is a legitimate contact point but vigilance is crucial due to widespread number spoofing by fraudsters.
Reports on phone number 08082801101
3 monthsSome bloke just called saying hes from my bank, told me to ring a number and punch in the pin they gave me. Felt dodgy straight away.5 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Santander, but it was actually a scam trying to steal my details. Really dodgy.Santander1 yearThis is a really sneaky trick, they use stuff like your birthdate to make it seem legit. If someone’s swearing it’s for real, they’re either caught up in the scam themselves or helping the scammers out. Watch out!2 yearsGot a call from what looked like Santander, said there was some weird stuff going on with my account. Thought it was dodgy at first, so I used a different Santander phone number to call them back. Turns out it was legit, just them wanting to check on some unusual activity, but it all turned out fine and was really me after all. Sorted now :)2 yearsTotal scam alert!2 yearsAll sorted. Got a message from Santander saying they needed to "verify some recent transactions" on my account and that they'd send another text with the transaction info and how to reply. The second message came through with details of a transaction I didn’t recognise, asking me to ring 08082801101 and enter a 3-digit PIN. Feeling a bit iffy, I didn’t follow the steps and instead called Santander on a number I knew was legit. I spoke to someone there who confirmed the texts were real and that someone had attempted a dodgy transaction on my account.Santander2 yearsI've just had a ring from Santander.Santander2 yearsGot a robot voice on the phone, said it was my bank. Told me to press any button to keep going, but I didn’t fall for it cause everyone knows that’s a common scam.2 yearsYep, this is definitely Santander. Had a chat with them and they made me verify my recent bank transactions without me even asking for it.Santander2 yearsGot a call pretending to be from Santander, rang up my elderly relative. They said, "When you ring back, put in code ### to confirm who you are." Didn’t bother ringing back, just wiped the number from the phone.Santander2 yearsGot a call with an automated woman saying she was from Santander, said to press any button to keep going but I didn’t bother. Not sure if its legit after reading the comments, but when I typed the number into Google it brought me here, so that’s enough for me!SantanderGoogle3 yearsI got a message from this number and I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.3 yearsI can assure you, this number is perfectly legitimate and is linked to Santander. They have verified this information on their Twitter page, so no worries there!Santander3 yearsI received a message requesting verification of a recent purchase and they mentioned my card number.3 yearsLEGIT. Got a text about unusual activity on my account ending with (sent the right last 4 numbers). They said I’d receive another message from this number with more info. Then got a second text saying there was a £95 charge to Amazon. I looked on my banking app and saw the payment was pending. Checked my Amazon orders under your account > your orders and realised it was the annual Prime membership fee. Also used the chat feature on my banking app to confirm everything.LEGITIMATEAmazon3 yearsKeep getting scam calls from this number acting like they’re from Santander, so annoying!Santander3 yearsTHIS IS A REALLY SLY SCAM, DONT PRESS ANY 3 DIGIT NUMBERS. JUST IGNORE THESE #### IT'S FAKE.3 years0808 280 1101 is linked to Santander, but it’s best to verify first before you ring them.Santander3 years0808 280 1101 seems to be from Santander, but I always double check before picking up.Santander3 years## This is a real Santander phone number linked to their fraud dept. I first accessed my Santander account through the chat option and was then passed on to a staff member. I had a look on this site too but didn’t scroll down enough initially to find the listing, which later put me at ease.##Santander3 years## This is an actual Santander number tied to their fraud team. I first accessed my Santander account through the chat feature and then got transferred to a member of the team. I did look on this website but didn’t scroll down enough originally to find the listing, which eased my worries.##Santander4 yearsReally clever scam, had all the usual stuff - a text, then voicemail, then a phone call. Definitely don’t bother ringing back, it’s way too pricey!4 yearsThey called me about some fraud thing after I got loads of texts about it. Then they told me to say my 3 digit CVC on the phone, so I just ended the call right there.4 yearsThis call was actually from Santander fraud team. They were asking about a £95 charge from Amazon for my Prime membership (which I really did have coming up). At first I thought it was a dodgy call after looking it up here, but I used Santander’s online chat instead of calling back, just to be safe. They told me it was legit.Santander4 yearsThey keep ringin me back, sometimes twice or more in one day. Has anyone told Santander about their bank bein used as a front for this dodgy scam?Santander4 yearsGot two calls from an automated voice claiming to be Santander, telling me to press any button. I don’t have an account there but my partner does, still seems dodgy to me.Santander4 yearsAn automated voice msg said my daughter’s bank account had some problems. It gave a phone number to call back. I checked with her and she said she got the exactly same call on her mobile too.4 yearsSantander bank calling me again!Santander4 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming they were from Santander, insisting it was urgent. They had previously reached out to me using the number 03337591024. I chose not to ring them back and have since got in touch with Santander directly.Santander4 yearsI got a voicemail from a woman saying the full name of the householder's wife. Something felt off about it so I didn’t press any buttons like the recording asked. Also, I can't see a proper bank ringing you late on a Saturday night. Plus, when I checked the number online, it didn’t go to Santander’s site but this one instead, which just screams scam to me.Santander4 yearsI've had repeated calls from this number just yesterday, hitting up our home phone as well as both of our mobies. It was a pre-recorded message and they brought up Santander Bank. Quite peculiar, isn't it?Santander Bank4 yearsIts Santander - but I always check the number on the back of my card before picking up.Santander4 yearsThis has to be a con. They’re going as far as hitting up places like this one, putting up good reviews for phoney numbers. Don’t click any links or hand over your details. This definitely isn’t Santander.Santander4 yearsI reached out to Santander and they informed me it was a fraudulent call.Santander4 yearsGot a call pretending to be from Santander, they actually knew the person’s full name and that they bank there - feels like they've got some of my info.Santander4 yearsYep, thats actually Santander.Santander4 yearsTurns out it’s Santander calling.Santander4 yearsThis Santander scam was so believable, nearly fell for it.Santander4 yearsSupposedly from Santander, but I wasn’t too convinced.Santander4 yearsThey keep ringing every 10 minutes, even past 9 at night. I called my bank and they said they never tried to get in touch with me.4 yearsWatch out, there's a nasty Santander scam going around!Santander5 yearsThe recorded message never mentioned who they were or which company they were with, just asked me to ring back. Who on earth?? Lol5 yearsTotally a scam.5 yearsI received a call today from Santander's fraud team, and they provided me with a PIN that I hadn't requested at all. Quite concerning, if you ask me!Santander5 yearsGot a call from Santander and turns out it was legit. At first, I thought it might be a scam and hung up after a couple of calls. But then I rang back using the official Santander number and they confirmed it was genuine - just checking some unusual card transactions. They even sent a text to my mobile about the suspicious transaction. No funny business with ID checks like scammers do!Santander5 yearsTotal rip off!5 yearsDefinitely a total scam, no doubt about it.5 yearsThis sounds like a risky and clever scam. Best not to pick up the phone; if you're unsure, just ring Santander yourself.Santander5 yearsThis is definitely a con. The number is dodgy and they're trying to steal my personal info. Total phishing attempt. Watch out, even the "safe" reports on here look fake. If you’re unsure, just ring the number on the back of your card. This sort of scam is pretty clever.5 yearsGot three texts and a voicemail saying there was a transaction on my account on 14/07/2021 for £97.87 and asking me to check by calling 08082801101. Then on 15/07/2021, the same number rang me with an automated message claiming to be Santander. I rang Santander straight away and got through to their fraud team. They blocked my card, took some details to verify my identity, and sent me a new card. Watch out, these scammers are getting better at what they do. If you’re unsure about anything unusual on your account, always call Santander directly to check.Santander5 yearsSo it was actually a robo call from Santander. I rang them back on the 0800 number to check and they said there was some dodgy activity on my account. Always safer to ring the official number you know rather than the one they give you. If you get a call or voicemail like that then definitely contact your bank. They might already have frozen your card for safety.Santander5 yearsThis call was legit! I got a few of them, like 4 or 5, through texts, my landline and my mobile. They said there was some dodgy activity with a Norton renewal on my card and had blocked it. I barely ever use this card so I didn’t spot it straight away. When I rang Santander, they told me the number was genuine and everything was fine. Still, better to stay cautious!Santander5 yearsThis was definitely a legit call from Santander. They contacted me about an issue with a payment I’d recently done.Santander5 yearsReally suspicious, pretty sure it’s a scam. This one seemed the most believable yet. They said they were from Santander. I looked up my account and everything seemed fine, plus there weren’t any messages on my online account. They wanted me to pick my birth year from 3 choices. Wish I'd thought to try picking a wrong date before hanging up. The Santander numbers on their official site all start with 0800, not 0808 like this caller used.Santander5 yearsClaimed to be from Santander but definitely wasn’t - got them blocked straight away.Santander5 yearsGot this recorded message from Santander saying they called me 12 times today, can you believe it? 12 TIMES! I’ve never even had a Santander account. It’s clearly some robo-dialler fishing for active numbers. I picked up once cause I missed an NHS call on my phone, and now they’re still ringing at 9 at night. Seriously need to find a way to block this, I’m on TPS and it’s driving me mad.SantanderNHSTPS5 yearsLooking up Santander bank account activities.Santander5 yearsI’ve been informed by Santander that the call I received from this particular number was indeed from them. However, the subsequent call from a "PRIVATE NUMBER" turned out to be a complete scam! In my experience, I had filled out an email form that appeared to be from the Post Office, asking for around £2 for an alleged postage shortfall. This has unfortunately led to the fraudsters acquiring my banking details. They tried to use my information for a Deliveroo transaction, which fortunately didn’t go through, but it triggered an automated call from this number. They then contacted me directly using that "PRIVATE NUMBER." Fortunately, I didn’t give them any information, and Santander was quick to replace my card. 😊SantanderPost OfficeDeliveroo5 yearsSantander said this number was theirs, but the next call I got from a "PRIVATE NUMBER" was definitely a scam! I filled out a form emailed to me, supposedly from the Post Office, asking for about £2 for postage shortfall. That’s when the scammer got my bank info. They tried to use it to pay Deliveroo, which luckily didn't go through. After that, Santander sent me an automated call from this number, then rang me personally from the private one. I didn’t give them any info and Santander cancelled my card straight away ??SantanderPost OfficeDeliveroo5 yearsI was informed by Santander that the call I received from this number was indeed from them. HOWEVER, shortly after, I got a call from an unknown number which turned out to be a scam! In my particular situation, I had filled out an email form that supposedly came from the Post Office, requesting around £2 for some underpaid postage. It seems this allowed the crooks to access my banking details. They tried to make a payment to Deliveroo using my info, which thankfully didn't go through. This prompted Santander to send me an automated call from the aforementioned number, followed swiftly by a call from the 'PRIVATE NUMBER.' Luckily, they didn’t manage to scam me, and Santander promptly issued a new card. 😔SantanderPost OfficeDeliverooPRIVATE5 yearsIt showed up as Santander, but when I called them, they said it wasn’t from their side.Santander6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Santander, trying to fish for my personal info. Total scam!Santander6 yearsI received a call from this number urging me to get in touch with them right away. Upon pressing the first button they instructed, they informed me that I needed to go through a security check. They began listing various years for me to choose from, and I selected my birth year as requested. After that, they proceeded to ask for my birth month and day, at which point I decided to hang up!6 yearsI took the plunge after coming across this, and guess what? It ended up in my footwear as well!6 yearsGot a call from 08082801101, claiming to be Santander. They said my name and then asked what year I was born. They read out a list of years, one of which was correct, and asked me to press a button to confirm. That’s when I suspected something fishy. I rang the number on the back of my card and spoke to a really nice lady who checked everything was fine, but told me it was definitely a scam.Santander6 yearsSantander called me, seemed legit, and I got a text as well.Santander6 yearsSantander called me about some weird activity on my account, and it was actually true, someone had taken my card without me knowing. Definitely not a scam, legit call.Santander6 yearsSantander called me about some weird activity on my account and it turned out to be real, someone had nicked my bank card. Definitely not a scam, legit for sure!Santander6 yearsI’m convinced this is nothing more than a scam. I don’t have an account with them, yet I’ve received two calls on a Saturday-one at 10 in the evening! Then on Sunday, my phone buzzed with their number six times. It’s clearly some sort of automated message claiming to be from Santander’s fraud team, urging you to press any key to carry on. If someone tries to tell you it’s above board, don’t buy into it-it's utter nonsense!Santander6 yearsI got a call asking for my son and it sounded like some automated message from Santander, so I just hung up straight away. After reading the reviews here, I rang my son who’s in Italy for work. Turns out he was trying to pay rent but Santander stopped the payment. He’s now sorting it by calling the number on the back of his card. So yeah, it seems legit but it’s always good to double check.SantanderItaly6 yearsThis is definitely a con.6 yearsTonight (Saturday) at 8.20 and again at 8.37pm, I got automated calls from this number saying the full name of the joint account holder and telling me to press 1. I ended the calls straight away both times. I rang Santander's Fraud team and they said there was nothing suspicious on our account and said we would’ve received a text if there was. Still, I’ll be watching our account closely just to be safe.Santander Fraud6 yearsTotal rip off.6 yearsI got a call from Santander about a payment I made and it actually was legit. If you miss the call, they send a text with the payment details, like who you sent money to and the amount. You just need to reply with a Y to confirm it. The automated voicemail might sound a bit sketchy but it’s real.Santander6 yearsI had a legit call from Santander about some suspicious activity on my credit card. I rang them back using the number on their official website and they confirmed the call was real. Obviously, scammers can copy bank numbers, so its always best to double check.Santander6 yearsI got a text saying my Santander account had transactions at some company called Farfetch with £1100 taken out. The message said to call 08082801101 about it. Thinking it was fishy, I called the number on the back of my card instead. That got me to Santander’s fraud team, who said the number I was asked to call is legit, but scammers are getting smart and using genuine numbers. They checked my account and there was nothing wrong. They told me it’s a scam and to ignore any replies or links in emails. Watch out, don’t ring that number!SantanderFarfetch6 yearsI’m in a bit of a pickle as I’ve shared my information with this number. What steps should I take now?6 yearsIt was Santander’s fraud dept calling, but like others have said, they rang the main number on the back of my card to sort out the payment that wasn’t mine.Santander6 yearsGot 6 missed calls from this number and it turns out its actually Santander alerting me about possible fraud on transactions over £1000 that the bank put a stop on. It made me realise my Paypal debit had been used without permission so I ended up spending a good hour on the phone with Paypal sorting it out. They’ve blocked my cards now and ive changed all my passwords. Wouldn’t recommend just ignoring these calls, but make sure you ring the bank back on a number you know is legit (like from your card or a bank statement) using a different phone.SantanderPaypal6 yearsTheyve faked every bank number under the sun! Dont trust any calls or texts claiming to be your bank. Note down what they say but dont respond or give info. Then ring your bank direct using the number on your card or official papers, but only after making sure your line is clear. Don’t leave it too long though, in case theres a real problem with your account that needs sorting. Pretty obvious advice, right!6 yearsI’ll ring up my santander branch to check if it’s Swansea.SantanderSwansea6 yearsThat number is definitely from Santander. At first, I wasnt sure either but i phoned the number on the back of my card and they confirmed a purchase i made had been flagged as suspicious. Dont just ignore calls like that, use the freephone number on your bank card to speak to someone straight away.Santander7 yearsi skipped this caller 3 times, voice sounded weird and said it was santander. i rang the number from my bank paperwork to double check. the advisor told me it’s an automated alert from santander’s fraud dept. they looked into my account and found someone tried to use my card online around 2 in the morning, which was totally not me. they’ve blocked my card and sent me a new one now.Santander7 years08082801101 - total scam! Got a voicemail saying there was a dodgy transaction on my account, sounded proper official like it was from Santander. Rang Santander directly using the number on my card and they told me it was a scam. Watch out for this one!Santander7 yearsI can confirm that this number truly belongs to the Security Team at Santander Bank. They might reach out if they detect any unusual activity, such as a hefty charge on your debit card. It’s rather frustrating to see so much false info floating around about this number; it only serves to create unnecessary worry for others. Would be great if folks could refrain from spreading misleading details!Security TeamSantander Bank7 yearsjust checked my santander bank uk transactions online.SantanderUK7 yearsThey rang me twice yesterday and once again today. Every time I answer, they just hang up straightaway! Looks like a spam, right? Should I just block the number?7 yearsGot calls from this number like 6 times today, then they dropped a text. Definitely not Santander. Looks like a scam to me.Santander7 yearsI received a call earlier today from someone claiming to be from my bank. They wanted me to verify my address and informed me that my card had been used for a transaction that I didn't recognise. They mentioned something about putting a stop on my card and issuing a new one. Quite concerning, really!7 yearstotal scam, santander has confirmed it for meSantander7 yearsReceived a text about unusual activity on my debit card so I called the number. Managed to get everything cleared up but they ended up cancelling my card as a precaution. When I hung up, my phone flagged the caller as ‘suspected spam’. I then phoned Santander’s official fraud line, and they confirmed it was legit.Santander7 yearsI received a dodgy call claiming to be from Santander wanting my bank details. Definitely a scam!Santander7 yearsThis feels like a particularly crafty attempt at phishing. Do take care!7 yearsthis number called me, said it was santander, so I checked with them and they told me it really was from their endSantander7 yearsgot a txt from 447860015168 sayin my santander card was used and to ring 08082801101 about it. called santander right away and they said its a scam.Santander7 yearsSantander again, sent me the exact same message as before.Santander7 yearsYet another dodgy Santander phishing attempt! I rang up my bank, and they informed me that this number is highly perilous. I absolutely must not comply if I'm ever prompted to hand over my personal details for verification purposes.
