Expert Opinion
Beware of calls claiming to be Santander, especially when they ask you to press keys or provide personal details. Many recipients report automated messages that sound official but quickly shift to a request for verification codes, dates of birth or card PINs – classic hallmarks of a scam. Always cross‑check the number on the back of your card or via the bank’s secure website before you engage. Do not trust a text that urges you to call a short‑code; instead, hang up and dial the known customer‑service line yourself. If you suspect fraud, report the number to your bank and to Action Fraud, and consider blocking the caller on your handset.

Although I never got a call, I did receive a supposed bank message about a denied transaction, complete with details matching my bank’s website and a yes/no reply option. They also listed a phone number (08082800323), which I chose not to dial.

After selecting N for an unrecognised £200 Argos charge, I waited for a callback that never arrived. Thankfully I avoided dialing the number or entering the three‑digit PIN. A quick Google search revealed the number is a scam, so I marked it as spam and blocked it. Hopefully my N reply didn’t compromise my account!
