A legitimate Barclays fraud prevention line – their calls proved extremely useful in resolving a scam I hadn't even noticed.
Scam Posing as Bank Security
Summary — +443330456003
Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this number often masquerades as a trusted bank contact, sparking confusion and risk. Comments reveal a split: some hail it as Barclays' fraud team, crediting them for blocking shady transactions, while most scream scam, with automated messages pushing you to press buttons or share details that crooks crave. The official Barclays line differs, confirming this one's a frequent fake. Hang up immediately on unsolicited calls—verify through your app or known numbers only. Block it, report to authorities, and enable two-factor authentication to shield your accounts from these digital prowlers.

Uncertain about the source, so I blocked it.
Contacted the Barclays fraud team – not sure why some label it a scam, but they helped with my card and possible fraudulent charges.
Beware – block and report this number; it isn’t from Barclays fraud prevention.
A legitimate Barclays call followed a declined transaction; after paying with another card, they left a voicemail urging urgent contact. I verified via the Barclays app rather than the number on the message, and my account remained on hold until I spoke to them.
The call was a scam; as others have noted, Barclays never initiates calls. Hanging up avoids potential extortionate charges.

Pretend to be from bank but number's unfamiliar
These fraudsters tried to charge my Barclays account for Uber Eats; thankfully Barclays blocked the cards. This number is not Barclays.
Allegedly from Barclays.
Verified by the Barclays fraud team.
A call from the Barclays Fraud line actually saved me money when someone tried to set up an unwanted annual subscription. I researched before returning the voicemail and stayed vigilant, refusing any request for account details or suspicious links. They warned that number spoofing is possible, so I considered using an alternate phone to verify. Hope this helps.
Someone claimed it was the Barclays fraud department, yet I don’t hold a Barclays account.

This number is used by Barclays for fraud prevention purposes
On 23/5/2024, I received a scam call claiming my car tax payment was declined due to suspected fraud. Checked the DVLA site—no issues. Called from an anonymous phone, no answer. How did they get my number? Avoid this scam!
Following a call from the Barclays fraud team regarding a declined payment, the number was verified, and although the automated service seemed genuine, the unrecognized number led to a neutral assessment.
The Barclays anti fraud team is who this number is, dont worry about what other peoples say
