Cancelling online number but want call forwarding

Hi,
I have a Skype online number that is about to expire. I don't really need this number anymore, so I don't want to renew my subscription. However, I don't want someone calling the number I used to have and receving a "this number does not exist." Is there an option to forward the calls that are made to my Skype number to my cell phone/landline, even if I don't have the number anymore? 
Thanks for your help!

The only way you can control what happens to calls to your Online Number would be to renew the number for another 3 or 12 months.  You can't have it both ways - not paying to renew the number, and forwarding calls from it to another number.  It would be just like trying to do the same thing with a landline or mobile number - those carriers are certainly not going to forward calls to you for free. Skype is no different.

It shows that I do not have any online number! Please help!! Thank you in advance for all the help you can provide.
    Edit: My Skype login is NOT Gothic. I was already logged in my account and suddenly they asked me for a new user name (???). Please, please, help. I'm really lost here... My Skype account is kariellesamstad. I really need to see the number I paid for in August 12, 2012 in order to cancel it and get a new one. I really appreciate all your help. Thank you.

    Hi Pro,
    Once, I bought the Online Number, but there are some strange missing callings to my Online Number. When I call back via missing call number, they said they didn't call my Online Number... ???
    What is the problem and I felt very bad to use Online Number, and it was useless !!!!!!
    How to resolve the problem.. please some SKYPE PRO advise. 
    Thanks.

  • How to delete the number saved in CALL FORWARDING list?

    how to delete the number saved in CALL FORWARDING list? seems like the number cannot be deleted in CALL FORWARDING list, i tried several times...
    he thing is, here are three numbers in the call forwarding list, one of them were set up by mistake, and none of them can be deleted.......it brothers me all the time. i already turn it off, but the number list is still there...

    Hello dennis130915 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    The image you have uploaded is unable to be displayed.
    Call Forwarding is a carrier controlled feature. Most likely, the number you see could be for the Voice Mail server.
    It's advised you call your mobile service provider to further assist with this feature.
    Thanks!

  • I purchased online number but the number does not ...

    I purchased and used Korea 070-xxxx-xxxx online number but now I get voicemail 070 number and my Skype account separately. 
    When I call 070 number, auto voicemail kicks in and I can't call out from my Skype acct either.
    How do I fix this problem ?

    After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.

  • If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then cancelled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do i go back and do that since now when i plug in my HD, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help?

    If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then canceled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do I go back and do that since now when I plug in my external hard drive, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help? I bought a MacBook Air, but decided to return it for the newest model, and I wanted to back it up so that I can then back it up on my new MacBook Air. I didn't understand the option to Inherit or start a new back up, and therefore selected the option to create a new backup. I believe I should have selected to Inherit backup history so that when i back it up on the new MackBook Air, it appears the same as the one I'm returning.... Is there anyway that i can re-select the option to Inherit backup history for time machine?

    Thanks for sharing this link.

  • I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. Help please

    I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. I can call the same numbers manually so it's not my network. Any help would be appreciated.

    This sounds like an international issue? Although I can not see why? I brought my phone in Australia and operating it in Indonesia, I have the same issues.... Otherwise Siri works fine, even texting (SMS) to local numbers siri works well, but dialing local number it just wont work...! I will try using my Australian SIM card and see if that is the reason.. I tried changing the number in the contacts and took out the international prefix, I turned the international assist on and off still nothing.. How frustrating. I called apple, the technican had know idea and we to his supervisor, had to wait fro 40 miuntes and then I hung up..
    PLEASE HELP..!

  • See which online number is being called ?

    I have 2 online numbers setup on my Skype account. When a call comes in - is it possible to see which Skype Online Number they dialled ?
    Thanks

    Someone may be along to correct me, but my belief is that, for RETAIL subscriptions (the regular kind), you can only have one subscription that counts, and it can only be used on TWO computers by ONE person. If you want multiple people to use it, they each need an Adobe ID and subscription. If one person wants to use it on three computers they need two Adobe IDs.  For enterprises, volume licenses work differently.

  • Cancel Online Number

    Hello,
    I am paying $18 per three months for an online number now I want to cancel it. I follow the instructions (https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12164/how-do-i-cancel-my-skype-number) but I just cannot find "Skype Number" in the Manage Features section. This instruction does not work for my case. I search this forum and see some similar cases as well. 
    The thing is, how can I cancel this number now??? I cannot find any place where I can declare my cancellation. Hope you can help.

  • Bought Online Number but doesn't work

    I bought an online number and it shows up on my account, yet i never got charged on my credit card although it says payment delivered. Everytime I try to call it says you need skype credit. It does not let me call and does not let anyone call me either. It says I need skype credit, but I have used this service before and never needed any. What is the point of paying 60 bucks a year!? Please help!

  • Multiple Online Numbers - Only want one forwarded

    Hey there, am hoping someone can help with my query re multiple online numbers.
    I have one Skype account, and multiple online numbers. One number is for a 'home' number, the other is for a 'business' number. I was hoping to set up call forwarding such that only the 'business' number is directed to my mobile phone. The 'home' number will ring on the computer or go through to voicemail.
    Is this possible to setup? I am thinking I may have just spent money for nothing, as I may possibly have to setup a brand new account for my business skype and setup a new online number here as it appears you can only forward all Skype calls, not selectively.
    Here's hoping I'm wrong and you can all help me out
    Thanks.

    Call Forwarding applies to the Skype Name that is associated with an Online number, not the Online number directly
    so if you call forward a Skype Name that has multiple Online numbers associated with it, then calls to any Online number are going to be forwarded, as are incoming Skype calls as well

  • HT4994 I have an Iphone 4 and can not forward calls. every time I put the number in the call forward field it jumps back a page and the button moves to off. can anyone assist.

    I can not forward calls. I go to call forwarding, turn it on, copy and paste my phone number into the correct field (including the international dialling code).
    I then tap the Call Forwarding button, which takes me back one stage and the Call Forwarding button goes to off after a couple of seconds. Anyone who can help?

    Yes, a blocked call will go immediately to your voice mail.
    If you would rather not have that behavior, ask your cellular carrier if you can block that person through the carrier.

  • Online number at local call rates.

    If I live in England and got to Australia for a holiday, do I set up the number for the UK or for Australia so my friends can get local rates when they call? Then If a friend from Canada phoned me, would they also get local rate calls?

    For calling on a US online number from another country lets say Japan, will be charged same as calling from a Japanese landline to US landline?
    Yes.
    Skype call charges depend only on the country you are calling TO. The geographic origin of the call is irrelevant.
    To call both landlines and cellphones to (and within) the United States from anywhere costs 2.3 cents per minute or part thereof.
