Customer stories

People we've helped

Real stories from people who checked before they paid.

I was about to pay a builder for a kitchen refit. WhoAmIPaying flagged that the bank account didn't match the company name. The invoice had been intercepted. Saved me thousands.

Sarah M.

Freelance Designer, Bristol

Saved £3,200

A contractor sent an invoice with a VAT number that had been deregistered 6 months ago. We would never have caught that without running a check first.

David K.

Property Manager, Leeds

Saved £8,400

Found a car on Marketplace for a great price. The valuation check showed it was priced 40% below market value — a classic scam sign. I walked away.

Rachel T.

First-time Buyer, Manchester

Saved £6,500

After nearly paying a spoofed supplier invoice last year, we now run every new supplier through WhoAmIPaying. 30 seconds for total peace of mind.

Our mission

Why we built this

We built WhoAmIPaying because we were tired of the anxiety that comes with sending large payments to unknown accounts. Every day, people in the UK send money to the wrong account, pay fraudulent invoices, or get scammed on marketplaces. We wanted to make it simple to check before you pay.
