Phone constantly vibrating everyone 2 seconds with weird noise NFC

[Members_FLU8aJn]

For about 3 days now there has been a glitch with nfc. My phone will randomly start making a weird noise and vibrating every second and it is so frustrating. 

When I switch off nfc, it disappears but this would mean I can't use Google pay, so I need to switch it back on.

Hello @Members_FLU8aJn and may I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum 👋 

That is an conundrum 🤔

I have updated my phone to the most recent software update, and am fortunately not experiencing this. 

Do please double check all relevant settings. 

You could also try these generic troubleshooting steps >

• Safe Mode  > https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-to-start-my-galaxy-device-in-safe-mode/ turns off downloaded apps and themes etc which may highlight an app or theme that's causing conflict. Alternatively long press the power off button and then long hold on Turn Off to get to Safe Mode. 
• And Clear Cache Files from the phone's System Partition Section  > https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/how-do-i-clear-the-cache-on-my-device/ You may need to insert your earphones or hook upto a powered On Laptop or use a Tv's USB Port to access the Clear Partition Section. This may help with lag or stutters as this clears the phone of old/unused or broken cache files.There is also a Repair Apps option in the Menu System too { Possibly excluding the s²⁴ Series of phone's } 
• Feedback via your Samsung Members App too. 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎

In addition are you using any case with NFC built in or accessories?

@Members_FLU8aJn: I'm sorry to hear that you have encountered this issue. To allow you to continue using Google Pay without triggering the noises/vibrations while its not in use, I recommend setting up a routine via Settings > Modes and Routines

If > App opened > Google Pay > Then > Connections > NFC > On

Do you have any id/bank card under your phone case by chance? I had the same issue, and the reason was my id card that i wear under my phone case, it has nfc chip and my phone was constantly trying to read it.
