My safari keeps popping up this pop up telling me to call this toll free number and its not letting my close it or go onto other tabs.

I went on this website to watch soccer and then this pop up jumps up and blocks me from doing my stuff. it tells me to call this toll free number cause the mac detected suspicious activity. should i call it or bring it to apple so they can check up on it?

Force quit Safari, and then relaunch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn’t work, disconnect the computer from the Internet.
You don’t need to take the computer to Apple to resolve this, and shouldn’t call the number under any circumstances; it’s a scam.

Unable to call UK toll-free numbers

Since the beginning of April, calls to UK toll-free numbers beginning with +44500 have not been working. Skype returns an error message of invalid number. Anyone able to advise? Thank you.

Check this post, the dial assist is part of the iOS 7.1, according to page 49 of the iphone_user_guide
Make calls to your contacts and favorites while traveling abroad. (GSM) Go to Settings > Phone and turn on Dial Assist. Dial Assist automatically adds the prefix or country code for calls to the U.S.
This user had a similar problem and solved it by switching off the dial assist feature in Settings/Phone/Dial Assist

Most calls I can be heard, except 800/toll free numbers

For some strange reason that no one can answer, I can call and recieve calls and be heard just fine. But when I call a toll free 800 number (like for customer service) I cannot be heard at all? At first, I thought my microphone was faulty, but I called my wife's phone to test and make sure, but she heard me fine, so I made a call to a friend, and he heard me just fine. I even had him call me back, and no problems, so I called AT&T using 611, and they could not hear me. I also noticed my dial tones stopped working (the sound you hear when you press a key for menu options during an automated call). Even stranger is I don't get that little bell sound when I plug it in to charge. Anyone else have this problem or have a solution short of upgrading to 6.0? I don't want to upgrade, as I like my set up now.

Thanks Debbelle for the feedback & suggestions!
bwprater,
I can understand the need to block unwanted soliciting callers, companies and spammers! I would like to explain the Call & Messaging Block capabilities, as well as the Do Not Call List Procedures.
Account Members with access to My Verizon can block up to five ten-digit phone numbers from unwanted incoming calls and messages for 90 days. Limited to five 10-digit phone numbers only. Verizon Wireless Financial Services Call Center or collection agency numbers cannot be entered or blocked. International numbers may not be added. Other numbers on the account should not be added.
It is illegal for other companies to make telemarketing calls to Verizon Wireless customers using either an automatic dialing system, or an artificial voice or prerecorded message. It is legal, however, for other companies to make live telemarketing calls to Verizon Wireless customers. If a you are receiving such calls, you have the option of filing a complaint regarding the matter with the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) or FTC (Federal Trade Commission). We can add you to the Do Not Solicit List at VZW, or you can call directly at: 888-382-1222 to have your wireless mobile number added.
Let me know if this answers your questions & concerns!

How to manage my current country location from the account instead of calling long waiting toll-free while purchasing illustrator CC?

I tried to update my trial Illustrator CC to an official one. While I were entering the billing address, country is shown differently from my current location. Is there any way I can do by myself to change the country from the account? I called the toll-free number given from the website 800-585-0774, just cannot wait for that long. Thank for the assistance!

Toll Free termination issues

Over the past several days I've had issues with calling several toll free numbers which end up in the Cincinnati area. Called the toll free provider and they don't see an issue but said they look like dropped calls coming into their network from an interconnect. A few friends have also noticed the issue as well. We make a call to the toll free. The call will ring a few times then disconnect. Almost like a time out or something. Any ideas or known issues?

No. It seems to be several toll free numbers. I can only make it happen when calling via verizon wireless. I opened a ticket with vwsupport and they looked at several things then sent it on to the network guys. I also have had conversations with the toll free owner and carrier. They are seeing the issue coming into them and trying to sort it out from that direction as well. Must be an issue either in the vw core network or some intermediate between you and the terminating carrier, which I think in this case is Cincinnati Bell Any Distance.

Cannot fax 1 800 / 888 / toll free numbers from overseas

Dear HP,
I'm writing because using your fax machine from Germany (or Europe in general) for doing work with US firms is almost impossible. Since the US has had many fax numbers move from traditional area codes to 800 or 888 (free numbers) I am often unable to send faxes with this very expensive fax/scanner/printer that I bought. Your firm ware wrong gives up on connecting too early since when dialing/faxing a toll free number in the US prompts an audio recording first stating that "When calling a toll free number outside of the US you will be charged normal dialing rates. Stay on the line if you wish to continue". However, the HP fax machine just gives up and there seems to be no way to change / fix for this. Please advise since I obviously cannot be the only person outside of the US trying to do business with US companies. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Aaron

Hello Aaron,
For a such perfor a manual dialing from the fax, that should overcome a such.
Follow these steps to send such a fax internationally, basically press on Start Fax and dial when you hear a dial tone by following the steps, the fax will act as any other phone..

Cannot connect to ANY toll free numbers in the USA...

I am unable to use Skype to call ANY toll free numbers any where on the planet EVER! 95% of them are in the USA and 5% are in Canada. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling etc. but it is useless. I can only make calls with the company's main numbers or non toll free numbers for a fee. Can any one help? Is Skype blocking toll free numbers? Thank you in advance for any information!

Usually the toll free number resides at the service provider and they just translate that number into one of your DIDs. You can either look through documentation or call the service provider to ask which 1800 numbers map to which DIDs. From there it sounds like you'll need to investigate call handlers in your voicemail system correlated to that DID.
