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.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

Can I use my Skype Number to call UK
I can't either. I want to ask if I can use my Skype number (starting 0208 ) to call the UK from Greece on my mobile......
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 have my iPhone 5 serviced out of the country of purchase?
I have two iPhone 5's, mine (Model: MD298DN/A, Serial: C3*******TWF, iOS: 7.1.2) and my wife's (Model: MD297DN/A, Serial: C3*******TWD, iOS: 7.1.2), both are eligible for the Battery and Sleep Button Replacement Programs. I work for the US Department of State and move every two to three years. The phones were purchased November of 2012 in Frankfurt, Germany, while I was posted there; however, I am currently posted to Bangkok, Thailand, with no plans to return to Germany. I just brought my phones into a service center in Thailand and was informed that I would have to return to Germany or have permission from Apple, to have the service performed out of the country of original purchase. Could you please issues this permission for both phones? Thank you in advance for your time and attention.
Regards,
Joshua Bogitsh
<Edited By Host>Do not post your serial numbers on this public website. Had you read the terms of this forum, you would know not to do that, and also know that Apple doesn't review these forums.
Edit: Additionally, the first serial number you provided isn't a valid Apple Serial number. The second one is. I assume that's a typo on your part. -

Can I buy a skype number outside of my own country...
I live in the US but have many friends in Denmark, can I buy a Denmark number and they can call me and I can call them?

You should be able to purchase a Danish Online Number. Online Numbers for some countries have a residency requirement, where you have to supply an address in that country to get the Online Number.
Getting the Online Number would allow you to receive calls from telephones with your Skype account. You would still need to use Skype Credit, or purchase a subscription, if you want to call telephones in Denmark using Skype. Click on "Pay As You Go" below for the per-call pricing using Skype Credit, or "Subscriptions" to see the monthly/yearly subscriptions that are available. Online Numbers do not include any privileges or benefits for calling telephone numbers, except for certain Online Numbers that can be used as Caller ID when calling telephones from Skype.
Hope this helps!

Use a skype number nd connect to more than one sky...
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!Babygirlpink89 wrote:

My wife and I want to swap her iphone 4s for my iphone 4 while I take a short trip out of the country. We use the same itunes account but have different email accounts. Can we just change our phone numbers with our carrier and change email addresses on our phones so we get correct messages, with out disturbing our other apps?
The email is simple. Just delete her email acoount on her iPhone and configure your account into the phone and then do the same for her on your phone.
The harder issue is that to switch the cellular phone service you will need to switch the SIM cards and the two phones do not use the same size SIM card. -

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills. I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number. Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
thanksIf it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.

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

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
