01313124685 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01313124685 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam using a false local Edinburgh number. Callers claim to represent an accident helpline, alleging the recipient was involved in a recent crash, despite many not having had any incidents. The calls often feature silence, background noise from call centres, or confusing foreign accents, typically Indian, and can involve inappropriate or aggressive behaviour. Attempts to block the number using call blockers or register with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) appear largely ineffective. Many users describe the number as illegitimate, with the local number prefix being used deceitfully to encourage answer rates. Reporting and blocking are advised, but vigilance against these manipulative tactics remains essential.

There was no answer when I picked up, but I caught some loud chatter from what sounded like a call centre before they ended the call. I've gone ahead and blocked the number and reported it.

I answered the phone but there was nobody on the line. However, I could distinctly hear the chaotic sounds of a call centre for a brief moment before they abruptly ended the call. I've since blocked the number and reported it.

I’ve been hounded by this number, which keeps inquiring about a supposed accident that I supposedly was involved in. They just won’t let up and keep insisting that perhaps a family member might have had an incident instead. It’s utterly ridiculous! My call-blocking service from BT doesn't seem to be able to block this number either. It’s infuriating since I’m ex-directory and registered with the Telephone Preference Service. I’ve gone ahead and reported it to BT as well.

I recently received a call from this number claiming that I've been involved in an accident. Naturally, I ended the call. It's quite astonishing that this is now showing as an Edinburgh number, 0131 312 4685. It really is crucial that action is taken regarding such nuisances, particularly for the sake of our older residents.

Got a call on a Sunday from an Edinburgh number 0131 312 4685. The voice sounded Indian and the bloke called himself "max". Tried to chat but I ended the call quick, seemed like a scam to me.

The number showed up as a local Edinburgh one but the bloke on the other end (who was barely audible) sounded like he was calling from somewhere in India. I could barely catch what he was saying, but he mentioned something about my accident - which I haven't had at all. So yeah, I just ended the call.

Received a call on my landline this Sunday, the 20th of August 2017. Strangely, no one said a word on the other end, so I decided to hang up. Just to note, I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list. If they dare to ring me again, I’ll make sure to report them straight away.

There was some noise in the background like someone was around, but when I tried to get a reply, no one actually picked up.

So, this guy called me from an Edinburgh number, saying he was from the “motor insurance bureau” about some accident I supposedly had. Thing is, I never had any accident! The bloke had a bit of an Indian accent. Out of nowhere, he starts calling me a nice lady and says something about wanting to either sleep with me or, well, you know, then just cut the call. Proper weird and creepy!

Received a call on the landline around midday on Sunday. The line was dead-no one on the other end to be heard, just silence. Honestly, it’s yet another nudge to ditch this landline nonsense. We could all benefit from a bit less technology in our lives-real connection rather than just more gadgets, I reckon.

This number just rang me and the bloke on the other end was super quiet, barely saying anything I could understand. Then suddenly he got louder and asked if I could hear him properly now. Didn’t buy it for a second and just ended the call straight away.

Received a call today - a Sunday, no less - and there wasn’t even a word exchanged before I hung up. It's absolutely infuriating how these individuals manage to get hold of numbers, especially since mine's supposed to be ex-directory. Honestly, it's high time the authorities took serious action to put a stop to this nonsense!

I got a call this evening from someone claiming to be from an accident assistance hotline, inquiring about an incident I allegedly experienced in the past two years. The funny thing is, I haven't been in any accidents! I decided to have a bit of fun with them on the phone, but they ended up hanging up on me. Definitely sounds like a scam!

I keep getting these relentless calls from an Indian gentleman named John, who claims to be with the National Accident Helpline. I've asked them repeatedly to remove my number from their records, but the nuisance just doesn’t stop. In the end, I had no choice but to block them using my call-blocking app. Honestly, I’m fed up with this - the Telephone Preference Service isn’t doing a jot to help!

I got a call on my landline and right away, the accent and the small pause before they answered gave it away that it wasn’t local. Pretty sure it was from another country, probably some kind of scam. I told them to stop ringing me but I bet they’ll just ignore it and keep trying.

Cheers to Call Guardian for intercepting that dodgy call! Much appreciated.

I received yet another call from this number. There was a woman on the line speaking in a heavy Chinese accent, and I couldn't make any sense of what she was saying. In the end, I decided to just hang up.

I received a call from this number, but they didn't pick up when I answered. It went straight to voicemail, and then the line went silent. Just a wasted ring, really!

Some people called me sayin they’re from an accident support line. Thing is, I had a crash a few years back, like 3 or 4, and everything was sorted out ages ago. Still, these lot and others keep ringin me up about it, even though it’s all too late now. They’re proper annoying and should really be blocked or banned.

Our landline service labels any calls from abroad simply as "international," but this call showed up with what seemed to be a familiar local Edinburgh code (0131). The twist? Trying to ring the number without the area code - 3124686 - just doesn’t go through, which means it’s not a real number. Looks like the trick these scammers are using now is faking local numbers, hoping folks will pick up because they assume it’s from nearby, rather than an unknown or overseas caller. Clever, but sneaky!
