Calling with Skype is it free?

Im just very confused, I live in Mexico and I just called a mobile phone with Skype and it actually worked... I tought I needed to buy some credit in order to actually place a call. Im using skype for windows 8 desktop over a Wifi connection.
Or is calling to mobile phones from Mexico to Mexico free now? I don't understand

Currently it's part of a 100 million free minutes promo (0 cents a minute, 0 cents connection charge).
http://everyday.skype.com/es-mx/mexico
Once the minutes are reached the promo will be over and the normal pay as you go rates will return (requiring credit or a subscription). That page displays the current minutes consumption.

What's wrong with my device? It does not allow me to make calls with Skype or Viber... Can someone help?

What's wrong with my device? It does not allow me to make calls with Skype or Viber... Can someone help?

My device is a Blackberry Z30. Skype and Viber just to work fine. I had to travel abroad and turn off data services while traveling outside of the US but the applications worked just fine with Wi-Fi. Suddenly they stopped working to make calls. I can still send text messages, but when I try to do a voice or video call (in the case of skype), it only says "failed call" and when I try to call using Viber I get an error message that says the I can not use the application until I complete my GMS call which is ridiculous because I'm not using the phone other than trying to place my call through Viber. The interesting thing is that when I go the permission page in my security settings everything indicates that its on but is gray out and I do not have access to change any setting. The same in both applications. The rest of the applications are accessible to change settings. I already uninstalled skype and reinstalled it and still the same problem. I'm ready to back up everything and wipe out the device to original settings.

I have a Mac os x 10.58. Please could someone illustrate exactly what settings I should have on my computer to make video calls with Skype?

Then all you need is an external compatible webcam with your Mac Mini. Skype is currently compatible with your Mac and operating system

Origin of call with Skype subscriptions

I understand the Skype subscriptions and their rates when calling TO a specific country, but does it matter where you call FROM/ the origin of the call if you have a subsription to call that particular country?
For example: If I buy a year subscription to call landlines and mobiles in the United States, for the $2.99 a month, does it matter WHERE I am calling from (such as France, London, Germany) as long as I am only calling TO the United States? Or is that rate only for people in the U.S. trying to call others in the U.S? I'm a U.S. resident studying abroad for a year and wasn't sure if the origin of the call/ where I call from, is as important as where the subsription is set up to call to.

When calling telephones, the people you call may see a number based on where Skype patches your call into the telephone network. When calling phones across the USA and Canada, this is often done from locations in California. Users have no control over where Skype patches calls into the telephone network, as this is done in part to minimize the costs for those calls (and how there are lower rates in general when calling with Skype, and "unlimited" subscriptions for some parts of the world).
Skype has been doing this for many years, even before its acquisition by a big US-based software company. It's not some part of a scheme for the US taking over the world. It is probably cheaper for Skype to patch calls bound for Canadian phone numbers into the phone network from wherever it is being done now (probably in California) than it would be to patch the calls into the phone network somewhere in Canada.

Address Book – 'Call with Skype' launches VMWare Fusion

Clicking 'Call with Skype' against a number in Address Book launches Fusion and starts up XP. I had the Windows version of Skype installed in XP under Fusion but have removed it using the correct Add/Remove Software process. Clicking 'Call with Skype' once again starts the dialling from the Mac version of Skype. Weird and unwanted..... Any ideas to prevent this?

Not a problem afterall, as it turns out. Only shame on me for being a newb.
Though during my puzzle-solving process came across the skype-plugins for the AB. They are located in /library/Address Book Plug-Ins/ folder and are not automatically removed, when uninstalling Skype.
Names: SkypeABDialer.bundle and SkypeABSMS.bundle.

Remove 'Call with Skype' option in Contacts.app.

Hi,
I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite from Mavericks. Before upgrading I uninstalled Skype. After upgrading, in Contacts.app, there exists two options 'Call with Skype' and 'Send SMS with Skype'. How do i remove it?

Found the answer.
1. I had installed Skype when I was using OS X Lion.
2. In Lion, Contacts.app was known as Address Book.app
3. So went to the folder '~/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins' and deleted the 'SkypeABDialer.bundle' & 'SkypeABSMS.bundle' files.
4. Problem Solved.
Thanks for the help anyways.

The telephones numbers do not let me click and call with skype in firefox 5, how do I get firefox 4 again?

Before with firefox 3 and 4 I could call phone numbers with skype directly off of the web page by clicking the phone number. This feature no longer functions in firefox 5. What do i need to do. When I go to your website I can only download 5. I would like to back up a version if I need to because I use this skype calling numbers function daily. Please help

Firefox 4.0 is no longer available. You can download to the previous secure version which is 3.6.19 from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.19]
To ensure a clean installation, please do the following: 
#Go to "Programs and Features" in Control Panel and remove "Mozilla Firefox" choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box''). 
#Then reboot, open Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox". 
#Finally run the installation file you downloaded earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
Having said that, make a backup of your bookmarks as a precaution as follows: 
#Click the orange Firefox button, go to '''Bookmarks''', then '''Show All Bookmarks''' to open the Bookmarks Manager. 
#Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
You can use the same Bookmarks Manager to import the file you saved by choosing "Import HTML".

Can't make outgoing call with Skype Connect

I have my Asterisk PBX configured with Skype Connect using SIP with TLS and SRTP. Most of my outgoing calls go through, but sometimes I can't get call out. I was able to leave asterisk console up and collect verbose and sip debug data. Can somebody help me diagnose why my calls aren't going through?
I've changed my external IP (I'm behind a NAT'd firewall) to 1.2.3.4 and my SIP profile's user ID to 11111111111111. and my domain name to test.com. If someone working for Skype needs that information they can email me and I'll send it privately.

Making calls with Skype Number

First I was wondering if you need wifi to use a Skype Number?
Secondly, how much would it cost to make out-going calls using the Skype Number (would I need Skype credits)?
Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, 761w. and welcome to the Community,
Let us start by clearing up some confusion: a Skype Number is for incoming calls only. The sole purpose of having a Skype Number is to permit people who do not use Skype to call you using a real land line number, so you can receive their call on Skype. More about Skype Numbers here: Skype number
So, a Skype Number is not related in any way to calls placed to fixed or land lines or mobile numbers. You are correct; you will need to purchase credit or a subscription to cover the cost of these calls.
You are welcome!
Best regards,
Elaine

If the DroidX had a front camera how easy would it be to video call with Skype or Fringe?

Apparently EVO with Sprint you can video conference with Fringe but is this something that has to been done through WIFI? I was ready to upgrade to the DroidX but I am wondering if I should hold off for the front camera. I love using Skype video and it would be amazing to have this feature on the phone if it is an easy thing to do.
It would be greatly appreciated if someone is knowledgable about this information.
Thank you!

Since that is a hypothetical situation (Droid X front camera), there is no real way to even guess how the carrier or manufacture would implement this feature because if you look at how other devices use this feature you notice that they are not implementing this feature the same way. Also in regards to the EVO video calls is across the 4G network but from what I have read they have been experiencing a lot of connection issues do to the network being over whelmed (which isnt a surprise)...

Calling with skype

I live in India. Love Skype! Need to call the US and Europe from India and also when traveling. Not too many calls but will call regularly. Contemplating on getting a Skype US number too. Not able to understand:
1. What subscription plan will cover both US and Europe (I will travel to these places too) when based in India
2. Does getting a skype US number make calls from this number to US friends (from anywhere in the world) treated as local call?

Currently it's part of a 100 million free minutes promo (0 cents a minute, 0 cents connection charge).
http://everyday.skype.com/es-mx/mexico
Once the minutes are reached the promo will be over and the normal pay as you go rates will return (requiring credit or a subscription). That page displays the current minutes consumption.

How do I dial letters while calling with Skype?

Hi! I needed to dail several letters during a phone call, as part of a recognition serial number, but I do not know how to do that! Could anyone help me out? Thank you! I searched similar questions, but all I got is how to dial letters as part of the phone number. Unfortunately, I have to dial the specific letter instead of having the phone/Skype figure it out for me (e.g. I need to input "E" but I cannot just dial "3" to have Skype figure out and pick "E" among D, E, and F...) Anyone?? Thank you so much!!

Contact sprint for direction on how to use the calling card.

Calling with Skype is it free?
