Don’t be Scammed in 2026: Call 159
If you are concerned about a phone call from your bank and think you are being contacted by a fraudster or scammer, call 159. 159 is a safe way to contact your bank and most banks have signed up to this scheme. When calling 159, you will be taken through a menu in which each bank taking part in the scheme is read aloud for you to select. But be aware that scammers sometimes keep the line open, play a ringtone and then answer as your bank. To be sure, it’s best to use another phone or ring a different number first.
