Ask HN: Does Scotiabank security number caller ID resolves to 7-Eleven?
This morning I had reason to call Scotia Bank security centre [1]. After I got off the phone I was surprised to see that the caller ID had resolved to 7-Eleven. I called their 1-800 number [2] again, this time watching the display and observed it resolve to 7-Eleven.
I am going to contact someone at Scotiabank security centre to let them know, but first I would be interested in knowing if anyone else can confirm the same. Perhaps I have a localized issue of some sort.

- dustfinger 8y agoI tried calling Scotia Bank, but the lady whom I spoke with did not seem to understand what I was talking about. I told her that I think it will be easier if I explain this in an email. I have since emailed Scotia Bank about the issue and will post the email correspondence here if I get a reply. Although I don't think this thread has attracted any interest from the HN community which surprised me a little. Perhaps my title was not engaging enough?
- dustfinger 8y agoMy email to Scotia Bank ---------------------- To Whom It May Concern, Today I called Scotia Bank Security Centre using the phone number that their website has published at https://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/about/contact-us/security.html https://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/about/contact-us/security.h.... Here is the number that I called: +1-800-472-6842 While this number does seem to connect me with the automated phone dispatch service for the Scotia Bank Security Centre the caller ID that I see on my phone is surprising. The caller ID is resolving to 7-Eleven. Please correct this. It is confusing. It honestly makes me loose trust in the Scotia Bank Security Centre. If I were to receive a phone call from this number and saw that the caller ID was 7-Eleven I would believe it to be fraudulent. ---------------------- Scotia Bank's reply to my email ---------------------- Good afternoon, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your feedback and will certainly escalate to the relevant team to determine a solution. Regards Customer Care ----------------------
- scotiabanker11 8y agoYes it always shows up as 7-Eleven for me too, I use an Android phone if that makes a difference. To avoid it I just saved the number as a contact as "Scotiabank Customer Service".
