    The only option I have is to have my mobile phone number appear EVEN THOUGH I purchased a regular Skype phone number. How can you make this phone number appear?
    Thanks so much in advance

    Not all of Skype's Online Numbers can be used as Caller ID, appearing on the displays of phones you call from Skype.  Online Numbers from a few countries (Chile, Denmark, Estonia, Hong Kong, Poland, Sweden, the UK and the US) can be used this way, where the others are not permitted to be used in this way.  If your Online Number is not from one of the countries I listed above, then the only option would be to use the two-step verification process so that a mobile number (or a landline number that can receive SMS messages) is your Caller ID number when calling from Skype.

    Have you tried this.
    First check that your privacy settings are set to ''Allow calls from anyone''.
    Then change them to "Allow SkypeIn calls from Only people from my Contacts List".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.
    Change settings back to "Allow calls from Anyone".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.

  • Skype phone number for my business as an expatriate

    Hello everyone, I am looking to use skype for my business, more exactly, I am an expatriate and I need to buy/use a skype phone number that has the same format as local numbers have in my homeland.  Before I invest in one of those numbers, what I would like to know - for sure - is: 1 - Are skype numbers like any other landline numbers, meaning is there any way a client finds out the number he/she is calling is not a genuine/regular landline number? 2 - If the client is let's say in Canada, my skype number looks like a local French landline (eg: 0141315184) number, and my computer is in Zimbabwe, will the client pay more than if the computer was in France?. 3 - If the client again calls from Canada, dialing my skype number will be as for regular landlines right? eg: +33[removed for privacy] Thank you in advance for support. RC

  • Receiving sms to skype phone number

    Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to receive SMS texts to your skype phone number?  I have a phone number associated with my skype account and would like to send as well as receive to this number.

    This does not work for me. 
    I am on Skype 5.7.0.1130 for the Mac.
    In the Skypereferences . . . :Messaging windoid.
    I click on the "Set Number..." dropdown menu and type in my mobile phone number. I keep getting the message that "Error on sending code to mobile phone" etc.
    Now -- perhaps this is my issue, I have a brand new Skype mobile phone number for Germany. So new that I just got it two days ago. I was expecting to be able to send and receive text messages on this -- primarily from my bank and places like that which send you secret codes to your SMS when you are trying to log in. Does this work? Can it work? Why is it so hard to actually talk to a Skype Customer Support person??

  • What is my Skype phone number?

    How do I find out my skype phone number I dont know it

    Hi, john.bell980, and welcome to the Community,
    Sign on to your Skype account dashboard where you manage your payment methods and subscriptions.  You should see a tile that says Skype Number; if you click on that icon/box/tile, your number will be shown.

  • My skype phone number

    I just set up a new skype account and not clear what my phone number is for this account.  The account number listed is [removed for privacy].  I want to be able to provide this number to my friends.

    Hi
    Where do I find my skype phone number so I can have people call me on skype from their landline or mobile phone?
    It should be accessible from your Skype program or app.  Otherwise, log into your account on the Skype web site using the "Account" link at the top of this page.  Then click on Online Number, and you will see a list of Online Numbers on your Skype account.

  • Skype phone number just purchased does not "ring" ...

    Bought a skype phone number so I can receive calls thru skype.  Just "blinks" that it's an incoming call but no ringtone.  where can I go to fix this?

    Hi, Michele1984, and welcome to the Community!
    Just out of curiosity, is it only your Skype Number that does not have the classic Skype incoming call ring tone, or all calls?  The first place I would check (I am a Windows 7 user) is where I have my audio settings for "ringing" set.  I would also check in the Sounds settings under "which events play a sound."

  • Skype phone number - auto renew?

    Some months ago, I bought a Skype phone number.
    I've never used it and don't want it to renew.
    I paid for the phone nuimber for a year via paypal. I don't want it to auto-renew. Is their any way to check to see if it's set to auto-renew, or how do I make sure they don't renew it?

    you need to CANCEL the Skype Number in your account, otherwise it will automatically renew using the same payment method as before
    sign in to your account at www.skype.com, and click on the Skype Number tile
    then, on the next screen, click on Settings under your Skype Number
    finally click on Cancel Skype Number
