I've certainly spent a few grand without being rung up.

Ive spent a few grand myself without question buying stuff online. No questions were asked.
However its the exception, not the rule.
For the most part, any single high value transfer gets flagged on the system and has to be manually overridden. And any series of transactions outwith the normal spending pattern (and no, £9k in 24 hours in a series of small transactions is not normal spending for anyone except a shopaholic on £60k a week) should be blocked immediately.
