Got a text from this number and then called a reliable Santander line to check the 0800 number. The call centre staff were unsure if it was genuine and advised me to visit a branch for the requested details – not helpful when the nearest open branch is 14 miles away. I’m now considering changing banks.

Opinión del experto
Like a chameleon changing colours, the number +448000851379 can appear both as a legitimate Santander line and as a spoofed scam, leaving callers uncertain. The mixed reports show some customers being routed to a genuine identity‑verification department, while others encounter callers demanding full account details. To stay safe, always verify the call by hanging up and dialing the official Santander customer‑service number from your bank card or the website. Never share sort codes, passwords or personal data on an unsolicited call, and treat unexpected letters or texts as potential phishing. Reporting suspicious activity to Santander and to the FCA helps cut the fraud chain.

We verified the number on our Santander card by calling the official banking line, and they confirmed we should indeed dial 0800 085 1379 to sort the request. It was about confirming ID for our daughter now that she’s 18. Cheers for the tip!
Just a heads up – ignore any claims that this is a genuine Santander line. It’s a scam: I’ve received texts, emails, letters and calls, even my wife got a warning letter. When I joked about it, they hung up! This nonsense has been rolling on for years. Why isn’t it shut down? Right?
Confirming this is indeed Santander; I got through to them on their 123 line.
Today I dialled this number and they claimed to be Santander, requesting my sort code, account number, and address. When I refused, the gentleman simply said “okay” and hung up.

That message is a scam – they’ll never ask for both parts of your security details.
Sounds like a classic Santander scam – stay wary, mate.
Should a legitimate Santander call behave like that, they need serious customer‑service training. They basically threatened my 88‑year‑old dad and told him he didn’t understand banking. Absolutely disgraceful if it isn’t a fraud.
Warning: they pretended to be Santander, telling me I needed to call to update my info. My bank confirmed it’s a spoofing scam – don’t engage, it’s 100 % fraudulent.
This line is used for Santander Business Account customer service.
Received a suspicious letter from Santander urging me to call a number to update info or risk restrictions. I phoned customer services and they confirmed the letter was legit, just poorly worded. Better safe than sorry, cheers!
A fraudulent call pretended to be from Santander, threatening to close my accounts unless I verified details. I have no Santander account—this is a scam.
Got a letter from Santander saying they need to discuss my account and to call the number printed at the top. I’m looking into it now. Cheers!
Looks like a scam – I got a text pretending to be Santander saying they needed more info or they'd block my account, even using the OTP number and an email. I dropped by a branch and they confirmed it was phishing, so I blocked both the email and the text. Cheers!
Got an email and a text pretending to be from Santander – completely bogus. Cheers for the alert!
The call seemed to come from Santander, yet their centre didn't recognise it. I received a text prompting me to dial the same number that sends my OTPs, so I called. No passwords or security queries were requested, only a request to change my occupation.
The call centre didn’t recognise this number, but the caller used my voice as a password and asked an employee to update my occupation. No passwords or security questions were requested.
When I called Santander using the number on my bank card, they verified that the letter with the 0800 number was authentic. The threatening letter had all the hallmarks of a scam. Santander, you should be ashamed.
Confirmed that this number is genuine; it's not a scam. I received both a text and an email today. I dialled the customer service line, which asked for details for my Santander account, so everything appears fine.
After dialing Santander's official line they verified the call was genuine. Feel free to do the same; everything checked out, and no data that could let anyone scam you was requested.
Having called a verified Santander line, I confirmed that the number in question is fraudulent.
