Scammed from TSB

I would be "bleating" too if i'd had my bank account rinsed ..
Wouldn't you ?
Who do these victims have to vent on if not the banks ? Although i totally agree it is not the banks fault either.
It is entirely the fault of the criminals who perpetuate this stuff
OP - I feel for you/your son - but there is nothing anyone here can do to help you - I can only advise that you will get your money back - however you will have to make a lot of noise to your bank and the police - and it will take some time ..
Good luck0 -

Just a question? Do mobile shops give out Sim cards over the counter, I would have thought they would have sent a sim to the registered address and then get it activated once recieved, rather then handing one over to someone in a branch...
Maybe would have stopped this 'fraud' as they wouldn't have had access to the OTP code.
I ask as I have always got sim cards via the post even if I have gone into a branch location..

Thread title should be changed to something other than "Scammed by TSB" since TSB weren't at fault0

Either way, it's still incorrect0
