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. Many recipients experience silence, abrupt hang-ups, or aggressive tactics when refusing engagement. 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 yearsGot a call from Blue Group, they were chatting about some recycling stuff or whatever. Didn't really catch all of it, seemed a bit random to me.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 yearsWhen I picked up the call, there was loads of background noise and I couldnt make out a word they said. I just told them to get lost and never ring me back again.10 yearsI got a call from them and decided to ring them back. I used the speakerphone on my mobile so I could hear everything. After a bit, an automated voice came on saying if I didn’t want any more calls, to press 2. I did, and then it said I’d been taken off their call list. Fingers crossed that actually works!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 yearsThey keep phoning me about assistance for people with disabilities, it's getting a bit repetitive now.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've been getting loads of calls pretending to be from Talk Talk about my internet recently, it's proper annoying. They ring me at least twice a week now, and it's really wearing me down. Honestly, they oughta do more to put an end to these nuisance calls.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 got a call from a loud call centre, and the woman on the line said her name was something like 'Jaye Marie'. She claimed to be from a firm that sounded like 'Enhance UK'. When I asked her again what the company's name was, she just disconnected the call without saying sorry or giving any reason. The number that showed up on my phone was 001698 623001 - looks like it’s from Motherwell. If you’re on the TPS list, make sure to report annoying calls like this to the ICO to help put an end to them!Jaye MarieEnhance UKMotherwellTPSICO10 yearsDidn't pick up the call earlier and used 1471 to see who it was. I usually don’t return calls if I’m not sure who’s ringing, so I looked it up here and it sounds pretty suspicious.10 yearsGot a call earlier about swapping out some stuff at home for new ones. The moment I asked for their phone number, they just dropped the call. The number that popped up on my caller ID was 001698623001.10 yearsGot a call earlier today, picked up but there was just silence on the other end. Strange!10 yearsI didn’t answer the call. They didn’t leave any voicemail even though I asked for one. Left a warning that if they keep calling, I’d block them. Now their number is added to my nuisance block list.10 yearsI missed the call and when I checked, there was a voicemail from them.10 yearsI picked up the phone and straight away the person said they were calling for Microsoft about some issue with my PC! Then they asked me how old I was! That’s when I knew it was a scam for sure. I ended the call right away and never gave them any chance to get into my computer!!!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)
