It's a well known scam.

Block the number and report it free to 7726.

They change the number regularly as they know people block them.

Hey guys. I didn’t realise and had popped in some details (no bank details). I put my phone number in wrong and pressed next and it let me go to the next step, which is what sent alarm bells ringing. Will my account be compromised?
