Hi, Grannyrosie, and welcome to the Community,
Please remember the purpose of a Skype Number is only for people to call you - a Skype Number is a fixed or land line number, and you answer the incoming calls on SKype. You would need a Skype subscription or Buy Skype credit in order to place calls from Skype to fixed or land line numbers and mobile numbers.

Can I use a Skype number with PAYM?

Can I use a Skype number with PAYM?
http://www.paym.co.uk

a Skype Number is just a phone number, callable from anywhere in the regular phone network
a Skype Number in Japan should eliminate (or at least minimize) the cost to the expected callers
Skype does not currently support the reception of SMS texts
you can have as many as 10 Skype Numbers associated with a given Skype Name, and they need not all be in the same country

Can I use US Skype number while out of the country

I would like to be able to forward my work phone to a local US skype number and answer while traveling out of the country. Is this possible?
If not, how would I do this?

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.

Can I use my Skype number as caller ID ? So when I call someone to landline or mobile phone from my skype account, the skype number shows up in caller ID of person I call ? Also, you can't contact any skype employed person for advice ?
This depends on where your Online Number is located, as not all Online Numbers can be used for Caller ID. From my own 4 Online Numbers, I can use the numbers in the USA and UK as Caller ID, but not those from Australia or Mexico. Local/national regulations or limitations from Skype's partners providing those Online Numbers may be to blame, if your Online Number(s) can't be used as Caller ID.
To see if you can use that number as Caller ID, log into your Skype account here on the Skype web site (click on the "Account" link at the top of this page). You should be able to go in and change your Caller ID settings once you get in. If your Online Number is eligible for use as Caller ID, you should see it as an option (or maybe the only option) when you get in there. If it can't be used, then your only option would be to use the two-step SMS verification process and set a mobile number as your Caller ID when calling telephones from Skype.
More info on the Caller ID stuff with Skype is available at the "Caller ID" link at the bottom of this page. Good luck!

can i use a skype number and connect this to more than one skype account. or can i create a group of skype accounts who can pickup the call?

no, a Skype Number is linked to a single Skype Name
calls to a Skype Name can, however, be forwarded to as many as three other numbers or Skype Names -- whoever answers first gets the call
incoming Skype calls can only be forwarded once using Skype

Can I Use my SKype To Go Number in Different Count...

Hello, I live in Victoria, BC, Canada and have a skype to go (S2G) number to make international calls from my mobile phone (mainly to the USA). I will soon be travelling to Maui, HI, USA and am wondering if, while I am in Hawaii, I can still use my S2G number in Hawaii to make local calls to businesses in Hawaii at the low skype rates? Usually I would not use my phone (it would be left in airplane mode) because of high carrier roaming rates. Does S2G only work on wifi?
Or is the S2G number only valid when I'm making international calls from Canada to USA?
I guess I'm still a little confused on how the S2G number works and how rates are charged.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Only Person to Use my Skype Number is Blocked

How do I unblock the one person who will use my Skype Number? He tried to phone me, and suddenly a female voice started talking so fast I could not follow what she said, and then the call ended. Now my friend cannot get through on my Skype number. What on earth has happened, and how do I get Skype to fix it?

Hello,
No - it's not the case. A Skype Online # is for your contacts to call YOU. (inbound calls). You can't make outbound calls from an Online #. Details here: Online number

Unable to set Skype Number as Caller ID despite su...

Hi there,
I have been trying in vein to set my new Skype number as caller ID for all my Skype calls. The reason I purchased a Skype number was for this reason. Depsite following the how to on this page "What is caller identification and how do I set it up?" my Skype number does not appear in the drop down menu when I follow all these steps ONLY my mobile number shows up. I am a little annoyed by this and I would not have paid for a Skype number had I know you can not actual assign this number to your caller ID. Maybe I am doing something wrong however, I am tech savvy enough to follow instructions and these don't help. I hope it is possible otherwise I feel I will need to seek my money back. Thanks in advance

i am in the same boat
just spent $24.00 for 3 months..
and found out that i can not use this number as my caller ID.
very annoyed

Using a Skype number in another country?

Hey all, take a look at this link:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA247/how-much-will-it-cost-my-friends-to-call-my-skype-number
Im in Australia and will be travelling overseas soon. Can i buy a Skype number with an Australian area code and use that in another country, e.g. Thailand.
More importantly, wouldn't this mean that my friends calling me from Australia would only be calling me on local rates, since I am essentially tricking the system by pretending I am in Australia.
The following however suggests such a trick may not be possible : "Note that before you can set up a Skype Number for certain countries, you need to provide proof of residence." (although since I am in Australia at the moment and a resident, it shuldnt be a problem for me).
Just seems to good to be true.
Thanks

this only applies to CERTAIN countries (the majority of countries where Skype Nunbers are offered do not have this restriction) -- click here for more details https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA256/how-do-i-set-up-my-skype-number#4
otherwise Skype Numbers work as you have outlined -- you get an Australian number that the expected callers will ideally call at local rates, and your signed in Skype client magically rings wherever in the world you are physically located
buy a calling subscription before buying your Skype Number and you qualify for up to a 50% discount on your Skype Number (depending on the subscription length that you choose)

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

Can you use FaceTime or iChat to call a non-iPhone?

Can you use FaceTime or iChat to call a someone who does not have an iPhone?

Hi,
Yes.
Just to be clear let me qualify that.
FaceTime can contact other devices that use FaceTime either by a iPhone Number (includes some iPads) or an Apple ID.
There is a FaceTime for Mac version so the person you contact (by Apple IDs) does not have to be on an iPhone.
As well as iPhones certain other iOS 5 devices can use FaceTime and these include iPads as already mentioned and certain version of iPod Touches.
As iChat does not work to iPhones and is an Instant Messaging app that can do Video and Audio Only chats and Screen Sharing, File Transfers, Pics-in-chats, iChat Theatre and more then the answer is also Yes.
I suspect the question was really "Can I contact other phones that can do Video using FaceTime ?" the answer to that is No.
iChat can Text chat to most client apps on Phones (Jabber or AIM for instance)
Video needs iChat (Or AIM or Trillain on a PC).
