Be aware of Barclays security flaws, you can easily loose your money, I think fraudsters found some way using Barclays Telephone Banking.... Yesterday I had phone call from Barclays tel.number, as text message from Barclays, saying that they blocked some suspicious transaction on my account...I was suspicious , but they had somehow all my details including address, DOB, account numbers, card numbers, I dont keep all these details in one place, they would have to hack several different sources like google pay, my computer , etc. to put all these details together, therefore I guess they had all details directly from the bank...they said they will transfer my call and probably connected my call to Barclays Telephone Banking system, I was lucky I had my money in my savings account and I logged into banking app within 20 seconds, seeing my funds being tranferred from savings account to current account, from there they would get lost...I hung up and transferred all the money out from Barclays to my other accounts, I was lucky I was faster than fraudsters... I called Barclays to report it, they refused even to transfer my call to fraud department, instead froze all my access to my accounts and ask me to go to local branch to identify myself... I was explaing that I am out of UK until January, I had to move even overdraft funds out of Barclays to avoid stealing them by scammers, so I will not be able to pay my direct debits and will be charged for going overdraft by bank, asking bank to report this case so they can investigate it and fix any security flaw, because until January scammers can clear accounts of thousands of peple, but they were not interested, instead they blocked in addition to telephone banking access my access to Barclays Bank App and online bank access...no intension to investigate what has hapenned, scammers in the meantime can clear accounts of thousands people... Once I return to UK, I am sure I will be closing my accounts with Barclays and see how much they will try to charge me for going overdraft, to protect my own money they were unabe to protect and unwilling to invetigate the flaw in their system to allow fraudsters from stealing money from their customers...in the meantime it will take lots of time to move all my direct debits and regular payments to another banks, otherwise I could face panalties from companies/utilities/internet for falling behind with the payments...
