    It's after midnight and I have just received a text from "BOI"telling me to contact BOI Credit Card security at 01/48854466 or to dial customer service and choose option 1 then 4. I am slow to ring the number listed above.
    Can anyone validate this number/alert?

    That's an 8 digit no....should be 7 if it is 01 for Dublin.

    Hi byhookorbycrook,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    The correct number for the Credit Card Security Team is 01 4885466. If you are ever in doubt of the authenticity of a number you are requested to call, we would always recommend calling one of our main published numbers, such as 0818 365 365, and a representative can check this for you. 

    You're always welcome to raise the query here or on any of our other social channels, Facebook or Twitter. If you need a quick answer outside our hours of support here on Boards.ie, our Twitter Team are available 24/7.

    Thanks
    Tara
