Can I change my Skype number?

I want to change my number to a Canadian number. The subscription renewed on Aug. 15th and I haven't used the number since then except for receiving one voice message. Is it too late to change it, or to cancel it, get a refund and get a new number?

Due to various regulatory issues, Skype Numbers are not available in Canada.

  • Changing my Skype number and keeping my credit on ...

    Can I change my skype number and transfer my credit for a new Skype number?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Skype numbers and credit are tied to the account.  If you add an additional Skype number or replace the number with a new one when the old one expires, then the credit won't change since it's still tied to the account.  If you want to transfer the credit from one account to another then as far as I know,  it's not possible on standard accounts.  If you recently purchased credit within the past 15 days that you didn't use, you could request a refund.  You could then apply the money from the refund towards credit on another account.

  • How can I pay for skype number for one year

    How can I pay for skype number for one year? 

    Hi, Orzo.Coffee, and welcome to the Community,
    I realize what I am about to write sounds a bit weird: to change the term of a Skype Number subscription, we need to permit it to expire, or in other words, reach the end of its term.  Your Skype Number will be held on account for you for 90 days following the expiration date, so you can sign in even on the same day you receive the e-mail stating your Skype Number subscription has expired, to reinstate the subscription and change the term.
    I had to ensure I had enough credit on account so my renewal would process successfully; if you plan to renew for a year and use credit for your payment method, remember to add enough credit to cover the cost of the annual subscription.  You could also change your payment method at the time you reinstate/renew your Skype Number subscription.
    Make sense?
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

    The only way to change your Skype Number is to cancel the subscription you have, and to start a new Skype Number subscription.

  • Can I designate my Skype number as my mobile numbe...

    Can I designate my Skype number as my mobile number for SMS replies?

    Hi, expertvillage, and welcome to the Community,
    I'm wondering whether you are referring to transferring your subscription, or forwarding a number ... so here are two different answers:
    Skype subscriptions are active for specific terms or lengths of time.  If you no longer need the New Jersey number, cancel the subscription and start a new Skype Number for New York.  Skype does not permit transfers of anything, be it credit, subscriptions, or call features from one account to another.  Splitting a subscription by changing a number is not possible, either.
    You may forward the New Jersey Skype Number to the new New York Skype Number.  Here's how: https://support.skype.com/en/category/CALL_FORWARDING/
    Hope I covered all scenarios!
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

  • How can I change my Skype email notifications to E...

    My email notifications from Skype are received in Spanish, apparently because I live in a Spanish-speaking country (Panama).  Since I do not speak nor read Spanish, it would be greatly appreciated if these notifications could instead come in English.  My account is set up with English as the language and Skype works just fine that way.  The problem is that whenever I receive a notice via email from Skype, it is in Spanish.  Is there a way to change that?

    I will try writing Customer Service, thanks for the idea.  I'd like to reply to the following message which came to my email address, but has yet to show up here, to say that there does not appear to be any option regarding "language" in the Subscriptions & Bookmarks section.

    Only by getting a different iPhone and using your Apple ID for Messages/FaceTime on your iPod. The iPod (and iPad) only have a phone number for Messages and FaceTimeT if the Apple ID used for those services on the iPad is also used on a Phone witrh iOS 6 or later.

    Yes, you can use a US Skype Number while you're out of the country.
    Even if you're overseas your friends and relatives can call your US Skype Number at local rates. When they want to call you, simply sign in to Skype and answer the call when it rings – and you pay nothing to answer the call.

    I am assuming that the Express is connected wirelessly to a non-Apple router - so the answer would be yes if the Express is configured as a bridge to join your wireless network - then if you connect your PC to an ethernet port on the Express, it would connect to the internet via your router.

  • Can we change the employee number on the employee master data form ?

    Hi,
    Simple question but can we change the employee number on the employee master data form ? We need to use the same employee numkbers from another system but just cannot interact with the employee no. in SAP 2007 ?
    Thank you,
    MB

    You canu2019t modify the employee number. It is assigned by the system sequentially.
    But you can define a user defined field to store the other systemu2019s identifier or use (and even rename) some other field to store this information.

  • How can I change my contact number on iCloud?

    I have just purchased a new iPhone 5 and loaded IOS 8 and trying to connect Keychain verification via my Mac Book pro to verify to iCloud ID
    I cannot comply because iCloud has a discarded phone number and I see no option on how to correct this
    How can I change my contact number on iCloud?

    So the question is, what device are you changing it on?  Before doing anything, backup all devices, save all photos somewhere on a hard drive and export your contacts and calendar just in case.  I am a real beginner here, but I have been dealing with this issue for two weeks so I think I am getting a handle on it.  Hopefully someone can give even better advice.
    iCloud.com is a slave to whatever account you have setup on your IOS device, so it doesn't care what you sign in as.  There is nothing to "change" there, just sign in as whatever Apple ID you have setup on your devices.
    I would start on the Macbook.  Go under preferences, iCloud, and then sign out of your iCloud account.  Sign back in, but enter the new Apple ID that you want to use.  This will delete the old account, but give you the option of keeping everything you have in iCloud on your computer.  Turn everything on that you want to sync, and you will be back up with iCloud connected to a new AppleID.  iCloud.com will now mirror your MacBook.
    On the iPhone, go under Settings, and then iCloud, and delete the existing account.  You will loose whatever is in the Cloud from your phone, but they should already be back in the cloud from your MacBook fromthe above step, so no worried.  Setup a new iCloud account with the Apple ID you used above, and enable the things you want to sync. Everything should be back now and you have the new AppleID associated with your iCloud. 
    The iPad is the same as the iPhone, delete the old and establish a new iCloud account with the AppleID you used above.  You will loose anything that is in the cloud from the iPad but it should repopulate once the new Apple ID is established.

    Do you mean Skype account name? 
    If yes, Skype does not permit account names to be changed once they are created.  You could, however, change the display name:
