Reports on phone number 60249
6 monthsGot a text supposedly from Barclay Card but it’s a total rip-off. Reported it and then just chucked it in the bin.Barclay Card7 monthsI got a couple of texts saying they were from Barclaycard, asking if I wanted to download their app and to reply "Yes" to 60249 if I needed help. Sounds a bit iffy to me.Barclaycard7 monthsGot a message today claiming to be from me, but I never even bothered to open it - just deleted straight away!7 monthsThat Barclays scam is still going strong. I sent a report to 7726 about it. Honestly, I think any call or message that’s a scam is pretty risky.7 monthsGot a message about Barclaycard saying I should use their app, but when I checked online, nothing matched up. Total scam for sure. I’ve blocked the number and flagged it.Barclaycard10 monthsI never got any message from Barclays back in July. The text supposedly said something like: Hello ****, we tried reaching you in July to inform you that you might be missing out on better savings interest. There are accounts with higher interest rates you can still access. If you want to discuss your choices, just reply 'yes' and we'll give you a ring within five working days. Cheers, the Barclays team.Barclays11 monthsDefinitely seemed like junk, so I just got rid of it.11 monthsI asked Barclays directly and they confirmed that 60249 is not one of their official text numbers. So I’m not sure why this website claims otherwise. It’s definitely not legit!Barclays12 monthsGot a message supposedly from Barclays but it never actually mentioned Barclays, just the number 60249. It said something like, “Hi #####, looks like you haven’t logged into your Barclays app recently. We want to know why and if we can help. If you’d like a quick call, reply yes.” Felt really fishy so I sent it off to 7726 and deleted it right away. Definitely a scam in my opinion.Barclays12 monthsJust got a text that seemed like it was from Barclays, but it was definitely a scam.Barclays12 monthsGot a call from someone pretending to be from Barclays about my banking app. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!Barclays12 monthsJust got a message claiming to be from Barclaycard, asking me to respond to the number 60249. Turns out that's a premium rate number, so there's no way I'm replying to that. Feels like a dodgy scam to me.Barclaycard1 yearGot a text from someone claiming to be Your Barclaycard team, saying Hi xxxx, that I'd just paid something to 'online servicing' and asking if I knew I could manage payments through the Barclaycard app. They said if I needed help downloading it, just reply with yes for a callback. Thing is, I don’t recall making any payment like that, and I had the app once but uninstalled it ages ago. Seems a bit fishy to me.1 yearOn 19th June 2025, I got another text from 60249 asking me to reply 'Yes' so they could ring me about the Barclaycard app. This is the second time this month I've heard from this number. I've marked it as a scam. If Barclaycard really wanted to get in touch, I’d think they’d do it in a more proper way, not just sending a random text telling me to say 'Yes'. I honestly don’t know what I'd be agreeing to, probably just more spam texts.1 yearJust got another call today, usual Barclays card scam stuff - they use a premium rate number, somehow know your first name, and want you to reply 'yes' by text. Obviously, I reported it as a scam straight away. They never give up!1 yearGot a weird message saying it was from "Your Barclaycard team". It told me to reply "yes" if I wanted someone to call me back and help with installing their app. The odd thing was, it used my first name. I just ended up deleting it straight away.1 yearFake call, definitely a scam!1 yearSomehow I got a weird text about owing money or something on an account I don’t even have. Definitely not a customer of theirs!1 yearGot a text saying it was from Barclays, but something about it didn’t quite feel right. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.Barclays1 yearGot a text about some returned mail from Barclays, asking me to just reply "Yes" so they could ring back. I rang Barclays myself and they said it wasn’t them. This number looks dodgy, so I'd say block it and mark it as spam. Don’t bother replying - it’s probably a premium number and saying "yes" might end up signing you up for expensive messages or calls.Barclays2 yearsGot a bunch of texts from that 60249 thing, just plain messages with nothing else really telling me who it was. One said they were going to ring me to verify who I am using the Barclays banking app. Yeah right, no chance they were legit. Scam or no scam, I’m not falling for it.2 yearsGot a call from the number 60249 and I’m pretty sure it’s some kinda scam or something dodgy. Don’t bother with it at all. I’ve already blocked the number and got rid of it.2 yearsI can confirm that Barclays sent me a text message from this number at 8am this morning.Barclays2 yearsI received a text from Barclays notifying me of some unusual activity in my account. They tried calling me, but I was unable to answer, so they sent me a text from this number.Barclays3 yearsGot a message from Barclaycard using this number. I sent them a text asking for an email confirmation. They said they couldn’t provide one and wanted me to just text "yes" back. I said no, but I didn’t notice it was a premium rate text. I’m gonna call Barclaycard now to figure out what’s going on.Barclaycard3 yearsSays it's Barclays, asking for a reply about some trivial matter.Barclays3 yearsIf this number is premium, it's really poor taste for a big bank like Barclays to be sending unsolicited texts to people.Barclays3 yearsGot a call just like that, saying they were from Barclays.Barclays3 yearsI'm really iffy about this number. It sounded like someone giving legit tips about what to do since my local Barclays is shutting down. But I kinda said yes without thinking much. Plus, I hit send before realising it was gonna cost extra as a premium text. Now I'm just waiting for some dodgy scammer to ring me up!Barclays3 yearsI got in touch with Barclays through the app on my iPad instead of my phone that got the text. Felt confident the message was legit.Barclays3 yearsOn 06/05/23 in the afternoon - Just a heads up: got a text from 60249 today, didn't reply. Pretty sure it's a scam message.3 yearsGot a long message claiming to be from Barclays, but Barclays never get in touch like this. Still asking me to respond though.Barclays3 yearsYou have received an unexpected text message from the 'Your Barclays Team'. The message states that they have an address for you in the EEA and that you need to take action within a few weeks. They advise you to transfer your funds and make alternative arrangements for your regular payments. If you require assistance, respond with 'yes' promptly, and they will contact you by phone.Your Barclays TeamEEA3 yearsDon't ever just ignore calls from your bank if they’re unexpected. Always ring your bank back using the number printed on your card. Banks use loads of different numbers to get in touch, so it’s hard to know for sure if it’s a legit call about your account or just some scammer trying to steal from you. Scammers sometimes put fake red warnings about real bank numbers on here to trick people into blocking them or reporting to ‘7726’ - which then flags those calls as scams everywhere on your phone network.3 yearsGot a text claiming to be from Barclays, but I’m 100% sure it’s a scam! There’s no way I’m replying, my cash disappears quick enough already without some fraudster nicking it too!!Barclays3 yearsJust checked by messaging @BarclaysUKHelp on Twitter, and I can say for sure that this 60249 text number is legit. Even though it looked a bit dodgy at first, it’s actually safe.BarclaysUKHelp3 yearsGot this in the early hours: Hi **** we understand money might be tight right now, so we want to offer some assistance if you need it. We can provide advice on managing your budget and share info about services and groups that offer extra help. If you want us to ring you to discuss how we can assist, just reply 'yes'. Your Barclays team. Feels like a total scam to me.Barclays3 yearsGot a message apologising for the gas blast near me, then asking if I needed help with my bank by replying YES. Using a tragic event where someone lost their life to try and scam people is absolutely vile. They’ve no shame at all.3 yearsReceived a sketchy message.3 yearsThey said they were from Barclays and asked if I wanted some help with budgeting. Told me to text back ‘yes’ if I want them to ring me.Barclays3 yearsGot a text from "Your Barclays team" asking for some sort of customer feedback and said to reply yes for a callback. They used my first name from a name list. Watch out for this!Barclays4 yearsScam alert!! Got a text saying it was from Barclays bank asking me to reply "Yes" but my phone blocked it and marked as spam straight away. MAKE SURE TO ALWAYS VERIFY THE NUMBER AND RING YOUR BANK USING THE PHONE NUMBER ON YOUR STATEMENT!! These scammers just wreck lives!!Barclays4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Barclays. They said "when you ring next time, let's skip all the usual questions and just do voice recognition." I was meant to say yes to get it started but I never replied.Barclays4 yearsTotally a scam!! Got a text saying it was from Barclays, asking me to reply "Yes", but my phone flagged it as spam and blocked it. Be sure to always double check the number and call your bank using the phone number on your statement! These scammers really mess up people’s lives!!Barclays4 yearsGot a text from 60249 saying to set up voice ID for Barclays with account or card info. Text back yes for a call. Watch out, it looks like a scam.Barclays4 yearsSending a message regarding financial assistance from Barclays and requesting a confirmation by responding with "yes."Barclays4 yearsGot a message saying reply YES if you need help during these hard times or something like that, clearly just a SCAM.YES4 yearsFRAUD. Got a message like this and google marked it spam straight away. I wouldnt have answered anyhow, cause proper messages from Barclays come from the sender name "Barclays" only. They usually say something like "Hi ****, we understand money's tight right now, so we're ready to support you. We can offer advice on budgeting and share info about organisations that might help. If you want us to ring you to discuss support, just reply 'yes'. Cheers, your Barclays team"GoogleBarclays4 yearsGot a call pretending to be from Barclays, asking me to text back "YES" to receive assistance. Total scam.BarclaysYES4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Barclays, asking me to text back "YES" for assistance. Total scam.Barclays4 yearsJust got a message saying sorry for the wait when I called them, and suggesting to manage my account via their app or online banking instead of waiting on phone. They said I could reply 'yes' for a call to help with these options. I thought it might be a scam, so I rang Barclays directly and was quite surprised when they confirmed it was a legit text. They told me if I don’t want the assistance, I can just ignore the message.Barclays4 yearsGot a call from a scammer pretending to offer support since my wife’s from Ukraine. Sounds like a Barclays thing but I reckon they're just selling our data.Barclays5 yearsGot a message - total scam.5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Barclays, total scam.Barclays5 yearsGot a message saying its Barclays, asking me to text back ‘yes’ - total SCAM!Barclays5 yearsToday, I received a peculiar text message from the number 60249. The message stated, "We understand that the closure of your local branch on 20 October may not be ideal. We wanted to assure you that we are still available to assist you and have provided alternative banking options in our recent letter. If you have any queries or need help with alternative banking methods, please respond with YES and we will contact you. Best regards, your Barclays Team." This made me wonder if it is indeed a legitimate message from Barclays Bank. Typically, whenever I need assistance, I prefer to call the official customer service number of Barclays, which is provided on their website as well as on the back of my bank cards.YESBarclays TeamBarclays BankBarclays5 yearsGot a text from 60249 saying they’re shutting down my cash ISA on 14th June due to inactivity, and that if I want to keep it or have questions, just reply YES and they’ll ring me. It’s supposedly from Barclays, but I’ve never banked with them or had an ISA. Seems like a dodgy scam to me.YESBarclays5 yearsWe understand that the current inclement weather may be causing some inconvenience. If you require any assistance with your account, cash or cards, please feel free to reach out. Our team is available to support you. Simply respond with a "yes" to this message, and we will be glad to help.5 yearsI received a message from this contact, claiming to be from Barclays Bank. However, I suspected it to be a fraudulent attempt. I have decided not to respond in order to avoid any potential risks. Based on comments I have seen, it is indeed a scam. Therefore, it is advised that you do not reply to the message either.Barclays Bank6 yearsI received a text today and it said something rather odd. I can't understand why Barclays would want to assist me, it seems suspicious considering all the scams going on. It's frustrating that the police don't seem interested in investigating these matters. 😡 Hello Martin, do you require any support from us? If you do, we are here to assist you. Simply reply with YES or let us know a convenient time for us to give you a call. If you don't require any assistance, there is no need for you to take any action. Your dedicated team at BarclaysBarclaysMartinYES6 yearsJust like everyone else said, they asked me to reply yes for Barclays, total scam.Barclays6 yearsGot a text saying I have an address in the EEA and that my Barclays account might get shut down unless I update my details. It says to reply YES and someone will call me back within 48 hours. Thing is, 1. I don’t have an address outside the UK and 2. I don’t even have an account with Barclays. My bank would never reach out like that, so I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.EEAUK6 yearsSupposedly from the "Barclays Team" or someone pretending to be.Barclays Squad6 yearsSupposedly from the "Barclays Team" sayin' to text back "Yes" if I needed assistance with my Barclays app. Coincidentally, I do bank with Barclays, so I flagged the call as Dangerous rather than just "Harassing".Barclays TeamBarclays6 yearsUsually if I see a text starting with BARCLAYS, it says something like “Our team in South Wales wants to protect you and your family.” Feels a bit dodgy to me, so I just ignore it. But weirdly, on their official site it claims the message is legit? Not sure what to believe.BARCLAYSSouth Wales6 yearsI have received a message from Barkly's bank, sent from the number 60249. The message advises me to avoid visiting the bank due to a virus outbreak. It instructs me not to respond but to reply with "YES" if I require further assistance. However, I did not reply and instead promptly ended the call. I am now reporting this incident to you for further investigation.Barkly6 yearsDon’t trust this number, looks like a scam. Hopefully no one’s been caught up in the floods in Wales lately. They’re saying if you need help with your bank stuff like money or cards, they’re ready to assist. They want you to text back “Yes” if you want them to ring you. If you’re alright and don’t want help, just ignore it. Signed, Your Barclays Team.ScamWalesBarclays Crew6 yearsI have recently received a message that is allegedly from Barclays regarding the floods occurring in Wales.BarclaysWales6 yearsI detect the presence of a fraudulent scheme in progress in Devon.Devon6 yearsI received a text message at 12:56, supposedly from Barclays. The message stated that they hope I haven't been affected by the flooding in Scotland, and wanted to let me know they are here to provide support with my account, cash, cards, etc. They asked if I would like them to give me a call, and instructed me to reply "Yes" if interested. If I don't require any assistance, there is no need for me to take any action. The message was signed "Your Barclays Team." I am wondering how they obtained my phone number, as I have only shared it recently with two restaurants for Track and Trace purposes, and with Amazon for deliveries. This is the first time I have received these types of texts, and interestingly enough, I have received two today. The other text came in at 14:19 and is allegedly from the Tax Office.BarclaysScotlandand TraceAmazonTax Office6 yearsSimilar text circulating throughout Scotland.Scotland6 yearsStruggling with the Barclays App?

Cheers, Your Barclays Team 60249 09 Apr 2020 16:35CoronavirusTeam6 yearsI just got a text from 60249. It’s the usual message saying they want to help in these tough times. But if it’s really Barclays, why don’t they include any other details apart from saying it’s the ‘Barclays Team’?! Seems a bit fishy to me.BarclaysBarclays Team6 yearsGot a text from this number sayin that in tough times they can assist with bills or help you manage money without using cash. It said to reply yes and a person from Barclays would ring me back.Barclays6 yearsGot a text from 60249 earlier, says something like "you normally ring us to sort your account please reply yes & we’ll get back to you with some options" - supposedly from the Barclays team.Barclays6 yearsIts a scam. They call you out of the blue and then come back asking for money a few days after.6 yearsTwo days ago, I had an encounter with scammers who attempted the cold clam scam on me.6 yearsGot the exact same message about serious flooding around here. I’ve banked with Barclays for ages but this just feels off. Sounds like a dodgy scam or someone trying to cash in on the flood mess.
