"have you recently transferred in or out a large sum of money?" No "Are you regularly transferring in or out sums to other foreign banks accounts?" No. I have never transferred money to a foreign bank account. "What avg figure does you A/C sit at?" Variable. One month around £1,800, another month around £2,800.Depending on how much my job/salary is. I think not a huge amounts. " I notice you are using translation software too for your msgs." Yes. Because I don't need to ask for advice on an ordinary topic.

"Did he tell you to ignore it?" Yes he said that... But I absolutely don't trust them anymore..

I did it. The customer service at first denied that they had sent it. I told him not to lie because it was sent from the same number from which they sent the security code for personal identity check. Then he admitted that the bank had sent him. But he claimed he n't see it in the bank system.

Thank you very much for the detailed information. Today morning I received this SMS message from the Barclays bank: "Hello. Your account **** has exceeded any arranged limit and has insufficient funds for payments. To avoid returned payments, transfer £499707 by 3pm today." It's horrifying and hair-raising that banks can do this to people..

Yes. They said, this is what they did the barclays bank. But They refused to give reasons. Why

Thank you and OMG...

I can access my account, I can see the minus balance of 500,000 pounds... and account details. The bank refuses to provide any information, I called them three times on the phone.

Welcome, I'm new to the forum. A message appeared on my Barclays app on Saturday evening last week. Someone took £2,183 from my account. When I entered the application, my account balance was minus 500,000.41 pounds. I thought I was going to faint right away, even though I called the bank, they didn't say anything. Can someone help me, what is this thing?
