08453550064

I've received countless calls from this number.

Beware of this number - it’s a scam! They pretended to represent Santander, insisting they needed to verify a recent transaction that I supposedly made. The call was automated and contained a recording of an Indian lady mispronouncing my name quite hilariously. They had my name and date of birth, which made it all the more concerning. I promptly ended the call before divulging any information and chose to reach out to Santander directly using a number sourced from their official site. The genuine Santander security team reassured me there were no transactions requiring verification on my account. Shortly after, I received another message from the scammers urging me to call back. Please, do not share any personal information with these individuals. Also, be wary of any prior comments claiming this number is genuine - they’re likely part of the con. If you’re unsure, always contact Santander through an official number found on their website.

They called saying they were from Santander, but then denied it was actually them! Strange!

I’ve read through the earlier posts about that supposed call from Santander concerning a forthcoming online transaction. It raised my suspicions right from the start, and it appears my instincts were spot on. I’m currently awaiting a response from Santander to clarify the situation. To top it off, I was left hanging on the line for a staggering half an hour. If that turns out to be a premium rate call, I suspect I've just fallen victim to a scam!

I received a call on my mobile shortly after I had made an online bank transaction, adhering to the usual security protocols. I decided to let it ring, as I didn’t recognise the number. A few minutes later, I got a text from the same number, claiming to be from Santander, urging me to ring back while referencing a certain number. Thankfully, no funds were taken from my account, but when I checked my phone bill weeks later, I was shocked to find I had racked up a premium charge of several pounds. It seems whoever is behind this dodgy operation has the ability to track my online banking usage and can send me messages at will. Quite alarming, really!

Received a voicemail on my home phone today that appeared to be from Santander, alleging there was fraudulent activity on my card. I decided to ring the authentic Santander number to check it out, and they reassured me there was no issue and couldn’t confirm the legitimacy of the message. Seems like it might be a phishing attempt! **BE CAUTIOUS**

Received a few calls from this number earlier on, around 5 PM. I’ve no clue who it belongs to, but I did get a text from a dodgy loans company using the number 0714595839.

In the span of just two days, I’ve received a rather alarming series of four automated calls from the number 0845 3550064, all claiming to be related to fraudulent activity on ‘my Santander account’. The irony is that they’re after an individual who hasn’t lived here for 14 years! This poor lady, now 92 and residing in a care home miles away, hasn’t been a Santander customer for ages. I decided it wasn’t worth my time to engage with the pre-recorded message. Could it be that some fraudsters have managed to commandeer this number? Honestly, if the previous tenant had picked up, it could have sent her into a panic! If Santander is indeed behind this, they should reconsider their approach and opt for more traditional notifications via post instead of relying on these robotic phone calls.

Got a call from an automated voice claiming to be Santander's Fraud team. The number didn’t line up with any official Santander contacts I found on their site. They called me twice one evening. The first time, I just hung up quick, but then I got a text telling me to ring back and punch in a security code they sent. Felt really fishy to me!

I can confirm that the number 08453550064 is indeed a legitimate contact for Santander, specifically linked to their online banking transactions security team.

I returned the call and they requested my account numbers along with the sort code, which is rather unusual, I must say!

Lately, I've been receiving calls regarding transactions that I've supposedly made just minutes before. Interestingly, they originate from various 0845 numbers. During the calls, they attempt to confirm that it's really me who made those transactions by asking a series of multiple-choice questions. It’s a bit like the double verification you get when doing online bank transfers through One-Time Passwords (OTPs). This measure is particularly helpful in the unlikely event that someone else is trying to access your account without your knowledge. If you're ever uncertain about any of these calls, I’d suggest getting in touch with Santander directly to confirm your recent transactions. Better safe than sorry!

Earlier today, I received a call from 08453550064, which left a voicemail claiming to be the fraud team at Santander. I was rather sceptical and didn’t take the message at face value, so I decided to contact Santander directly. As it turns out, it was indeed them, following up on a recent transaction I’d made. Apparently, they conduct these checks periodically to ensure that the payments are being authorised by the correct individual.

This number belongs to Santander's security department. If they ring you up, it's typically to confirm a transaction. I really can’t fathom why some folks are insisting it's a scam!

Today, I received another call from the same number, and it was an automated message, followed by a text with exactly the same content. So, I reached out to Santander's customer service, and they assured me it isn't one of their official numbers. Just a word of caution - stay alert!

I received a call from this number, informing me that I must add some credit to my phone.

I just received a call from this number purporting to be the Fraud Unit of Santander. However, after reaching out to the actual Santander today, they confirmed it's definitely not from them, which raises some red flags. I strongly advise steering clear of this call-answering could result in unexpected charges!
