Australian Online Number problem

My Aussie phone number 08 9468 0017 won't work - people cannot call me.
I have subscribed to this number till Feb 2012, and my account is not in arrears.
Does anyone else have problems with a WA online number?
Unfortunately I cannot get support from Skype directly, and I don't think this'll change in the future given MS's abysmal record.

Strangely, I have just received a call on that number, - it seems to work from some phones and not others.

  • Australian Online Number - whitepages

    Is it possible to get my Australian online number into the Sensis Australian Whitepages? On their site, it says to contact your telephone service provider. This is what I'm doing now.

  • More than One Skype Online Number

    I have a US online number and wanted to know if I can set up an Australian online number on the same skype account?

    Yes, you can add an Australian Online Number to your Skype account.  You can add up to 10 Online Numbers on a single Skype account.  I have numbers from the USA and Australia, along with two other places (Mexico and the UK). 
    Note that if you want to handle calls to the Australian number differently than calls to your US number (i.e., use different settings if forwarding calls from each Online Number), you would want to establish a second Skype account and put the Australian number there.  Otherwise, if you are happy to use the same call-forwarding settings for both numbers, you can do that with your existing account.  Just log into your account on the Skype web site, go to the section for Skype (Online) Numbers, and purchase the Australian number. 
    For Australia, numbers are available for Canberra, the mainland state capitals, and other areas outside the capitals of the 3 eastern states (Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria).  Numbers are currently unavailable for Tasmania, the Northern Territory, and other areas outside Adelaide in South Australia and Perth in Western Australia.  Numbers would be considered landline numbers, and use the landline area codes for those locations - 03 xxxx xxxx in Melbourne, 02 xxxx xxxx in Sydney, etc.

    I could not see a way to get an online number within Germany as it states you must be a resident, with an address. So, not available for a tourist.
    Are there alternatives?
    If I got an Australian Online Number, and then travel to Germany... would my friends be charged international rates when they call me?
    Alan
    If the friends who would call an Australian Online Number are outside Australia, they would be charged for an international call.  An Australian Online Number could be useful for your friends or family that are in Australia.  Depending on where they are in Australia, those calls could potentially be considered local calls.
    If your German friends are not able to get on Skype, another option may be to get an Online Number in a different European country.  Skype has Online Numbers from other countries where there is no requirement to be a local resident (the UK is one of them).  This would still be an international call for your German friends, but maybe not as expensive to call somewhere else in Europe vs. Australia.

  • Will Online Number suit my needs?

    I am an Australian travelling through Germany and Sweden for one month.
    I would like the friends I am visiting to be able to call me (to my ipad or ipod).
    Can I get a German phone number (so they can make local calls), or if I get an Online number here in Australia, are my friends charged international rates to call me while I am in Germany?
    Is an Online Number the right way to go?
    Any ideas, suggestions?
    Please advise

    Please follow these Steps:
    1. Only do Step 1 if you are on WIN7:
    Stop Skype.
    Be sure that Compatibility Mode is not enabled (right-click on Skype shortcut icon/launcher and select Properties >> Compatibility) - for Windows 7 users only.
    Try to launch Skype.
    2. If Step 1 fails or you are NOT using WIN7 do:
    Open an Internet Explorer browser, and go to msn.com, what happens?
    If it fails, Please do the instructions below. Using your Windows Control Panel, please do:
    Internet Options -> Advanced Tab Please click the "Reset" button.
    Then, Go to the Connections Tab.
    Make sure that the only checkbox checked is "Automatically detect settings", then click the "OK" button.
    Close any open Internet Explorer browser windows, open a new IE browser window and try msn.com again. What happens? If it works, please stop/start Skype What happens?
    3. If Step 2 does NOT solve the problem:

  • Trying to make my old 3G iphone an iPod for my 4 year old grandson. I have found lots of ways to do so online. PROBLEM: when I charged it and turned it on it only flashes many different languages. Will only allow me to call emergency numb

    Trying to make my old 3G iphone an iPod for my 4 year old. I have found lots of ways to do so online. PROBLEM: It's been off for 2 years. When I charged it and turned it on it only flashes many different languages. Will only allow me to call emergency number. Any ideas how I can log on to it?

    Im pretty sure what you are looking at is Set up Assistant where it shows different languages on the slider. If I am right then just slide to unlock and follow the prompts to choose your language, country etc.

Since my paypall account has already been charged and the amount has not been yet refunden I dont know what to do in the next step. Is there any hotline I can adress to?
    Solved!

    Hallo,
    you need to have a valid german residence address to apply for a german Online number. The reason your order has not been refunded yet is because you have the possibility to correct the address you've given and resubmit it. Please check your web account page to do so: www.skype.com/go/myaccount

  • Problem with renewing my online number

    Greetings
    I have tried twice in the past week to renew my online number, and on both occasions skype has refunded my payment 2-3 days later. There is no explanation for the cancellation, I just receive an automated email which appears as if I have requested the refund, as it contains this line: 
    "You'll no longer be able to use the service you requested the refund for."
    I do not understand why skype keeps refunding my payment and cancelling my subscription for this product ... has anybody else experienced this before?
    Thanks.

    Firefox is completely free software. There is never any subscription fee or other charge from Mozilla.
    What exactly is prompting you for payment?

    Hi, MichLee79, and welcome to the Community,
    Please check first with the issuer of whatever payment method you used to ensure there are no issues on their side.  If you used a third party payment method such as PayPal, check with them, as well.
    Then, please contact Skype Customer Service to enquire if there are error messages or any other payment processing problems.
