Can the Skype online number use my old mobile num...

Hello, I want to demand a french on line number on Skype. But I have a french mobile number en France, and I used this number for 3 years. Right now I will go to another countries for 1 year, is it possible, when I demand a Skype on line number, Skype use my old number to be the on line number? Thank you!

Well, the number and account information are stored on the SIM card. You might need to check with them to tell them you are going to use a different phone, but normally you don't have to. That is the great thing about GSM and SIM cards. You just change out the SIM. I do not know, however if they require different plan information with an iPhone. Some carriers do.

Using U.S. Skype online number and forwarding to F...

Hello, I am a U.S. citizen but will be living in France for four months. I need to be able to effectively be in touch with business and family back in the U.S.
What I'm planning on doing is purchasing a prepaid SIM from Orange or another French carrier. Incoming calls from French numbers are free, so I was wondering if Skype would be able to fill in the gaps. If I were to get a U.S. Skype online number, is there a way where I could forward the calls directly to my French prepaid number?
Thank you in advance. I apologize if this has already been repeatedly answered. I used to be on top of all of Skype's offerings, but since the Microsoft takeover, I'm confused.

forwarding your US Skype Number to a French mobile number will require you to have adequate Skype Credit (or possibly a subscription) to cover the cost of the forwarded calls
you can forward your US Skype Number to a French mobile number in your account settings at www.skype.com

How use new skype online number to send sms from s...

I want to send sms to cell phones and have my new skype online number show as the sender. But, how to get the 'code' to set this up? Does not seem to be working.

This is not possible sadly, I have taken issue with this in Australia in the past. To recieve text messages you must set your sms number to your mobile phone number then verify this number by entering the code that is sent to your mobile. I am working on recieving messages on skype it is my thinking that it wold be very difficult to compete with skype as a normal telecom so they don't allow it.

Me and my dad share the same online number for friends and colleagues to call us, but it seems that the calls that come through to me are ad-hoc whilst my dad gets every call on his system. I just wondered if this is because 2 systems are trying to access the same online number?
Thanks

No meaning to get skype online number

No meaning to get skype online number, i subscribed for whole year online number, but the online number doesn't work most of the time, I am very upset, disappointed, and my friends are also very upset, angry and worry when they can't find me through the online number i bought, i am too busy to complain the quality, but now I need to voice this BIG BIG PROBLEM. I am using android reception Orange . Skype has to compensate me!!
Also if I am out and call my other country friends from my mobile through Skype, most of the time the sound quality is very very bad, they can't hear my words, like under the water, so what is the point i pay money to Skype !?!?

I have the same problem, after I choose my state, the area codes are 'loading' but none are displayed in the drop down menu. I tried this a few days ago as I was exploring this option and phone numbers for my area code were shown. So, a temporary glitch?

Maybe. Your phone should have settings to set forwarding for all calls to your T-Mobile number. If you enable that, your T-Mobile phone won't ring anymore, but you could still use your phone to make calls and for sending/receiving SMS or MMS messages.
If you are asking about forwarding calls when the mobile phone is on but you don't answer the phone, instead of those calls going to a T-Mobile voicemail system, you *may* be able to change that. T-Mobile doesn't let you do that on a prepaid phone, and that appears to be the same if you use some other prepaid services that ride on T-Mobile's network like Straight Talk. It may be possible on a postpaid plan (one where you get a monthly invoice to pay).
As for what T-Mobile would charge, you'd have to check on your plan or contact T-Mobile. Some plans have unlimited calling that includes call-forwarding, others only provide for a certain number of minutes for call-forwarded calls a month, and then there are some "plans" that make you pay for anything that is call-forwarded from your T-Mobile number. The T-Mobile web site may be able to help answer that, or a call to their customer service number will need to be made.
Good luck!

Transfer expired skype online number

Hi , my skype online number will expires at the end of this month and I want to transfer/assign the number into another skype account.
From what I understood here, its not possible to transfer online number from one account to another and I will have to wait until it expires then I can buy it again using my other skype account.
My question is : Should I wait until the online number subscription expires then buy it again through my other Skype account or is there away around this situation ?
And how can I buy it again using my other Skype account without waiting for 90 days after the number expire/deactivate which is the period of time needed for the number to go back again to the available Skype online numbers pool .
Thanks

you cannot transfer a Skype Number from one account to another . . . period
when the number expires it is held for you for 90 days in case you wish to reactivate it -- if an when you reactivate it during this period it will still be associated with the original Skype Name
if the 90 days expires before you reactivate the number, then the number will be made available to ANYONE that happens to choose it (and that almost certainly WON'T be you)
Regards,
Neil

Help - Skype Online number

I have registered a online number for hong kong and my parent can't see my phone number when I call them, aswell my parents can't call me with that skype number. Could anyone help me please?

There are two issues at work here - your Caller ID settings in Skype, and whether or not your number can be passed along to your parents' phone.
First thing... have you configured your Caller ID settings in Skype? When you purchase Skype's Online Numbers, they do not automatically become your Caller ID. You have to log into your account and set that up. You can do that here on the Skype web site, using the "Account" link at the top of the page. Note that not all of Skype's Online Numbers can be used as Caller ID. I don't know about Hong Kong numbers, but those in the USA and UK can be used - and numbers in Australia and Mexico can't be used.
Even if you have set up Caller ID on your Skype account, there is still a possibility your number won't show up on your parents' phone. This is out of Skype's control, as Skype works with partner companies in different countries to patch Skype calls into the telephone networks.
Next issue... receiving calls on your Online Number. First, you will need to make sure your Privacy settings are set up to allow calls from anywhere on your Online Number. I don't think this is accessible from the Skype web site, so use a Skype program on a computer to verify this. If you are also using an Apple i-device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch), you may also need to add the Skype app to the Notifications Center in the Settings menu. Otherwise, the Skype app only rings when it is up on your device's screen.

Receiving calls via Skype Online Number

I understand that I pay £10 for 3 months to set this up.
I understand that callers pay for a local call (so long as they're close to that local number)
I do NOT understand if I pay to receive each call and if so, how much?

Want to get a skype online number

I want to get a Skype online number for business use, but found the Skype Terms of Service states that "If Skype allocates you an Online Number or Skype To Go Number, you do not own number or have a right to retain that number forever. Skype may need to change or withdraw the number allocated to you from time to time."
What is the possibility for Skype to withdraw or change my online number? I don't want to change the number after I print them out on my business cards. Thanks!
I'm glad you took a moment to read through the legal stuff, and found that point. Skype does claim ownership over the Online Numbers it offers. In practice, for most countries, there should be no need to worry about Skype making changes to your number.
It is possible that the number could be changed in the future, if something in the country or area where your number is changes - i.e., changes in area/city codes. If the changes are imposed upon Skype by its partner providing the Online Number in that country, or by local/national regulations in that area, Skype would have no choice but to make changes to numbers. In the past, numbers have been cancelled when Skype and the local company providing the Online Number service to Skype have ended their business relationship. This could happen again in the future for numbers in other countries. Anything is possible, but how likely this is may be minimal.

Skype does not provide toll-free numbers. You would have to contact a provider of those services in your country, seeing if you can purchase a toll-free number that could forward calls to your Skype Online Number. In many countries, this would be possible, but done separate from Skype.
Good luck!

No, you can't receive SMS messages on a Skype Online Number.
You can set up a mobile number as your Skype Caller ID settings, which would show as the sender for your SMS messages. Then the recipients would have a way to reply to your SMS messages sent from Skype, back to a mobile phone instead of your Skype account. This would work for mobile numbers from most countries, except for mobile numbers from Japan and Mexico.
