So just to set things straight, i got this call, yes security i feel could be a little more thorough, however once i had a great conversation with 'Graham' i was fairly certain it was legitness. After the call i proceeded to go to the Barclay app to contacton live chat and a completely different agent was able to confirm this was ok and Graham was a legit member and a pretty cool guy (that last bits a joke) to thus that ever hesitate contact the support by phone or by the app. It'll be set straight for you and if not the banks aware of a possible breach. Ya feel me fam.

Had a call from this number last night and the caller was stating that they were from Barclays Marketing team, He gave me some details that they knew, and asked for a couple of bits of information (DOB and ONLY the first and last letter of my mothers maiden name). To be honest, I didnt really think about it and gave him my DOB (This could be easily googled if he had the details he had already given me) and the two letters of my mothers maiden name. He then proceeded to tell me that I had a provisional loan on my account and the exact balance on my debit account, and another savings account. After I ended the call with the man, I called Barclays through the app and the guy on the phone said I should never have given the informatino out (However this is information that is very non descript and couldn't possibly allow access to my account). Now here is the strange turn. As the call I made to Barclays concerned me, I called the fraud prevention team (from a different phone on the number from their website). Went through the security. The guy I spoke to confirmed that it was in fact their marketing team that called and that this is listed on my account with the exact time that I received the original call and the callers name, also that the first person I called on the accounts team should have checked to see if there were any outgoing calls before causing any panic. I had a worry reading all of the comments, but on this occasion it was a legitimate Barclays call making sure I was happy with my account and services that they provide me.

Received call from the same number and the guy introduced himself as some Barclays CR team. He then went ok asking me some security questions, which i said i wont be able to answer. He asked me if there were any specific reason for not giving him answers to security questions, my reply was what if he was a scam and asked me first and last digit this time, second and so on on another time, until his network has all of it, he did not reply me but said they had no way of identifying myself. I then said i could ask him security questions and if he answers my question, i would trust he was from barclays, i asked me what is my current account balance on the account ending with Xx and what was my last transaction, the guy was blank :D. I don’t know if the number shown is because if spoofing from the scammers but if this is real Barclays thn i must say it is a very poor customer service to use cold calling techniques

Call to my mobile claiming to be from Barclays to discuss how they can help me. I had not contacted them at any point for help. She wanted security information which I did not give. I advised I was driving and could they called me back after 5 pm. That was half an hour away. No call back. Note: seeing a CLI / Presentation number displayed can NEVER confirm validity of the caller, any number can be used as the display.

I had a call from this number saying they were Barclays and that it is a courtesy call for all new customers. They wanted to make sure that I was getting the most out of my accounts since they have been opened and wanted me to answer some security questions to verify who I was. They asked for Date of Birth, First / last letter of my mother's maiden name and to name a direct debit that goes out of my account. I did not provide them with the details hung up and phoned Barclays through their direct call on the mobile app. I then spoke with a gentleman who informed me that whenever they make a call to a customer it is compulsory for them to put a note on the customers account if they have contacted the customer. He couldn't find such a note and gave me the phone number for the fraud department. He told me that if they call again ask them what department they are from, what the purpose of the call is and then to call the fraud team at Barclays. DO NOT TRUST THIS NUMBER.
