I got scammed. Not sure what even happened, but I randomly got a £0.01 payment followed by a £29.90 payment from whoever ‘foodie-hub.co’ even is. Avoid at all costs if even possible. I’m hoping that no more money will be taken out, but I don’t know yet. Edit: As of 12/11/24 another £29.90 has been removed from my account. Do something about this immediately if it's an issue for you.

1p taken from account but it was returned. Then Santander contacted me & said they had tried to take £29.90 but they stopped it from leaving my account. Card blocked & new one to be issued. Santander were brilliant Easy to fall for this scam so be careful

Total scam. I was looking at flight departures from Manchester when suddenly a payment of one penny was made, I didn’t even put my fingerprint on the phone. Had to talk to my bank for an hour, freeze my account and wait for a new card. Apparently the penny is for a three day trial and £29 monthly thereafter. Annoying.

My wife somehow subscribed to Foodie Hub, she thought she clicked on something via the Flight Tracker App but if doing so starts a 3 day trial for £0.01 prior to a £29.90 payment the dates don't stack up. Either way she unknowingly clicked on something and via Apple Pay it began the process. Thankfully Natwest detected it and declined the payment automatically and alerted fraud prevention. Have to say Natwest service was incredibly good but distressing how easy the fraud attempt was and Foodie Hub should be ashamed.

Was at a work event asked to scan a QR code to support the organisation - had to accept payment of £0.01, to Foodie Hub - totally different company that had clearly intercepted, and then 3 days later tried to set up a regular payment from my CC. My bank blocked the transaction, however reading some other reviews on this company think they will continue to try so need to remain vigilant!

Just noticed a payment for £14.99 to FOODIE-HUB.CO. Never heard of them or knowingly bought anything from them, nor would I. Discovered another payment made last month for the same amount. I contacted Halifax. They refunded last month's payment and will refund yesterdays when it clears Pending. Believe the problem occurred at the Chilli Festival (Stags Head, Stalbridge, Dorset) on the 25th August where I bought two drinks with my Debit card.

Bought an Ohme car charger. Clicked on the QR code to set up and immediately had a request through google pay to pay £0.01. Thought it was odd, thought some more but proceeded. Next thing in the Ohme app is an option to cancel adds for £4.99 - when the penny dropped. Ohme must have made this scam open to happen due to their advertising. My credit card company did contact me via text to ask if a fraud to which I replied but I think it safer to then cancel your card to stop any repeat requests. Almost unbelievable that this sort of scam can get through from a QR code on something you have just bought for £550. Probably as much Ohme's fault that this sort of scam can exist but by the look of things the scammers have been very clever in working this one through the system.
