44asked for authorization which is not correctttt.. as it was unexpected time, dont trust this number
When setting up the Halifax app on my mobile after my main mobile battery decided to expan and open up the phone......... As part of setting it up, i received a call from this number.
What is really scary is how much effort is made to make this look genuine, the amount of positive comments, that you seriously have to consider before you dismiss is frightening. It is ofcourse a SCAM but getting more and more dangerous.

Genuine call IF you’re in the middle of an online transaction. It’s to give you a 4 digit security pin. If you’re online, you’ll be expecting it. If it comes out of the blue and you’re not in the midst of an online Halifax transaction, it is probably a scam. You then need to report it to your bank.
Halifax number that calls you when you need to provide a four digit verification code, for example when setting up the banking application. Not a spoof, but don't give this code to anyone and don't use it when you're not expecting this call!
Message left on my phone from this number regarding setting up a new card and if I hadn't asked for a card to be set up to press a key...I just hung up. I then called Bank of Scotland and they confirmed that the number isn't related to them or any of their related businesses....it's a scam number.
It's a scam. It's a call pretending to be automated online payment setup verification, in my case from Halifax setting up a new online payment. If you get a call, voicemail or text you are not expecting call your bank on the number published on their website not by returning the call.
It _is_ Halifax (and possibly others in same group like Lloyds, BoS etc) - phone system is insecure but if you're not expecting a call then yeah, hang up and immediately call the bank by their published number because it may be somebody using your card or gained access to your online banking etc. If you are expecting the call then the number wouldn't be a shock.
The real bank verification.

A genuine, automated Halifax Bank call to verify an attempted log-in or a change to an account, via their banking app. If you haven't just tried to log into your account, or set up a payment etc. and get one of these calls, maybe someone else might be trying to access your account from elsewhere !!!!!.....
SCAM. Do not give any information
Legit number - verification of a Halifax / Bank of Scotland transaction.
IT IS A SCAM

Scam call asking for last 4 digits. Rang Halifax to check and they confirmed nobody from the bank had tried to contact me.
Expected call to enter code to confirm my outgoing payment. If you receive call from this exact number and you don't bank with Halifax someone has either deliberately or mistakenly used your number as the 2fa number with their Halifax account.
Kept calling me until I blocked the number. Claimed to be Halifax setting up online banking. I don't have a Halifax account.
SCAM as I dont have a Halifiax account and it claimed to be another bank the other day. I question those who say trustworthy. My actual bank would never call like this.
BACS payment authorization.
3 calls received in quick succession at 11:30pm! Had to block the number for them to stop. I can see most people have said this is for online banking for Halifax however we have never been with Halifax so I would be careful
