Phone number ☎️ 01698623001 👆 is reported as a nuisance number frequently linked to scam and cold calling activities. Callers often claim to represent a company called Blue Group or make dubious references to recycling schemes or government surveys, using personal details to appear credible.

The number is associated with attempts to sell unwanted products or services and occasional impersonations of well-known organisations, including Microsoft. Despite some calls citing exemptions from the Telephone Preference Service, the consensus advises caution, with many recommending blocking the number and reporting it to the relevant authorities to avoid harassment or potential fraud. New visitors should be wary and avoid sharing any personal information if contacted.

2 yearsTotally a scam, watch out!10 yearsFor a moment I was almost convinced, they had done a little digging to find a name to chat with. But even so, it quickly turned into the typical nonsense about wanting to speak to the business owner about some "water bill" issue.10 yearsThey’ve rung me a few times claiming it’s about recycling, but I’m pretty sure it’s just a sneaky way to sell windows.10 yearsI received a call from a number associated with Blue Group, and they mentioned something regarding recycling initiatives.Blue Group10 yearsAs soon as I said hello, this number 01698623001 hung up on me. All I heard was a quick click after I mentioned my name was Elizabeth.Elizabeth10 yearsGot a call from a lady saying she was with something called the Blue group. I just ended the call straight away. My number’s on the TPS list, so I really shouldn’t be getting these kind of calls.BlueTelephone Preference Service10 yearsGot a call from a woman saying she was from the Blue Group. I told her I wasn’t interested and she just ended the call.Blue Group10 yearsI picked up the call, but it was nothing but a racket on the other end. I couldn't make out a word they were saying. Frustrated, I told them to bugger off and to stop ringing my number from now on.10 yearsI received a call from these folks, so I decided to return the favour. My phone has a speaker feature, and when I got through, I was met with a recorded message. At the conclusion, it prompted me to press 2 if I wished to opt out of any future calls. Following that, the automated voice confirmed that I’d been taken off their list. Fingers crossed that’s the end of it!10 yearsI never pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise, so I let it go to voicemail. Nothing was left though. I looked it up here and it seems like the typical scam call, so glad I didn’t answer in the end. They just keep pestering with these cold calls.10 yearsI hung up as soon as i picked up.10 yearsGot a call from Blue Group UK. Said TSP wasn't linked to them. They said they had my details straight from me as the owner. As soon as I said I was just renting the place, they cut off the call.Blue Group UKTSP10 yearsGot a call from this number a minute ago - the person just said hello and then went silent. Could hear some noise like a call centre, with other voices chatting in the background. One of them said something like "Hi, this is Susan." Still no idea what it was about, but kinda creepy.Susan10 yearsGot a call from a lassie with a Scottish accent claiming she was with the Blue Group doing a government-supported survey on recycling. I just ended the call there and then.Blue Group10 yearsI keep receiving calls about assistance for individuals with disabilities.10 years01698 623001 called me, just said hello and then cut the call! Very strange!10 yearsThey rang me but no one said anything so I just hung up, guess it’ll be their phone bill not mine haha.10 yearsGot a call from a woman with a Scottish accent, number 01698 623001 or 01698623001. She claimed to be from some 'UK group Blue' about a government scheme for recycling plants (!) and said they had me listed as the homeowner. Thing is, I never gave them my name, so how would she know? Then she asked if I was the homeowner, I said no, and when I told her I was renting privately, she said she couldn't help and just hung up! I’m no clearer on what that was about! Honestly, don’t get into the habit of answering calls from strangers who start asking personal stuff.UKBlue10 yearsPicked up the phone but no one spoke, could hear faint background noise like a call centre before it went dead. Looked up the number online and found this site. Decided to block it.10 yearsI keep receiving calls from someone pretending to be Talk Talk about my internet service, and honestly, it's becoming quite a bother. I'm getting these nuisance calls at least twice a week now-it's absolutely ridiculous! Surely, more should be done to put a stop to this nonsense?10 yearsSome bloke rang up, said he was from Microsoft or something. Sounded like he was from India or nearby. My mate said thanks then hung up quick. Then he rang again, warning that if we hung up, our computers would get locked and we’d face a big fine. I told him a few things in return. Never heard from him since.Microsoft10 years01698623001 keeps ringing me, how do I stop this annoying nuisance?10 yearsBlue Group said I did some online survey but I never did. Seems like they was just trying to sell me windows.Blue Group10 yearsHad a lady ring me up, couldn't really catch what she was on about, told her to quit phoning me, then she got all argumentative.10 years01698623001 Ive told this lot off plenty of times and even mentioned taking legal steps cause they keep pestering me. Seems like they cant make out my Scottish accent, which is odd seeing as it’s a Motherwell area number!MotherwellScotland10 yearsI recently had an encounter with a rather boisterous call centre operative who introduced herself as 'Jaye Marie' or something similar. She claimed to be representing a company that sounded like 'Enhance UK’. However, when I requested her to clarify the name of this supposed company, she abruptly disconnected the call without so much as a grunt of courtesy or any sort of explanation. The number I got from 1471 was 001698 623001, which rings a bell with the Motherwell area. If you're on the TPS registry, it’s high time to take action against these nuisance callers by informing the ICO. We’ve got to put a stop to their antics!Jaye MarieEnhance UKMotherwellTPSICO10 yearsI missed a call earlier and did a 1471 to find out who it was. I typically don’t return calls unless I’m familiar with the number. So, I decided to look it up here and it appears to be a bit suspicious.10 yearsI had a rather suspicious phone call today, where the caller was eager to discuss swapping out household items for newer versions. However, when I inquired about their phone number, they promptly ended the conversation. The number that appeared on my caller ID was 001698623001. Quite odd, don’t you think?10 yearsThis morning, I got a call from this number. When I picked up, there was absolutely no one on the other end. Quite odd, really.10 yearsI chose not to answer the call. There wasn't a message left despite my request for one, nor a heads-up about potential blocking consequences. As a result, this number has now been added to my list of pesky blocked contacts.10 yearsReceived a call which I chose not to pick up, and they left a voicemail.10 yearsI picked up the phone and straight away, the caller claimed to be from Microsoft, insisting there was an issue with my computer. They even had the audacity to ask my age! It didn’t take long for me to grasp where this was heading. I wasted no time in hanging up and certainly did not grant them any access to my machine!Microsoft10 yearsgot called again by ‘microsoft’! this is the fourth time today! looks like this number’s been forwarded from motherwell all the way to vietnam or something.BlimeyMicrosoftMotherwellVietnamSubmit Your Own Report (01698 623001)
