Harry Styles is the man you want to call when you need to get out of a bind!

The One Direction singer was prank-called by The 1975's Matt Healy on Nick Grimshaw's BBC Radio Show and he had no idea!

Healy originally called up Niall Horan but the blonde singer didn't end up taking the call.

So, naturally, Styles was next on the list!

Healy asked Styles if he could lend him $5,000 to help him handle a "threatening" situation with two men.

And while the entire scenario seemed a bit off, Styles didn't appear to be skeptical over the phone.

In fact, he was pretty open to helping out the Brit musician.

"Hang on, let me go and I'll get my assistant to call you and she'll sort it out," he told Healy.

After the prank call went public, Horan realized how the whole thing went down and took to Twitter to joke with his fans.

"I had a missed call from [Matt Healy], it's all starting to make sense now! Matty you idiot hahahahaha!"

Horan's had a pretty exciting last couple of days, to be fair.

The boy bander met Queen Elizabeth during a reception at Buckingham Palace honoring the Irish community.

He posted a picture of him greeting her majesty on Twitter and wrote, "I would [like] to thank @BritishMonarchy and of course queen Elizabeth for her invite to Buckingham palace yesterday evening."
