Charges for phone calls

Hi, wonder if someone can help me?
Yesterday I made some skype phone calls. Today when I logged into Skype the amount in the top left hand corner said I still had 6.86 Sterling (£) in my account (credit). I made one phone call and the balance dropped to 6.54. This was unusual as this was a call to a UK number.
I looked in the billing area and the last call apparently was £0.09 pence, not the 32 pence seen in the Skype console. So why does it appear that Skype is vastly overcharging me even by its own records?
I am now on Skype version 6.2 on Windows 7 (on a PC) but was on 6.18 when I made the calls.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,

Hi NormanM,
1. The point was that I was deducted £0.32 off my credit for just one calll yesterday (looking at my credit before and after the call). In fact, after that call I see that my credit this morning has been reduced by a further £0.09. I have made no other calls. So it now looks like £0.41 has been deducted from the credit.
2. Perhaps you can tell me. Is the billing real time like I was led to believe from the T&C's?
Hello John
1. The GBP0.09 charge was for the 2.59 minute call to UK on 09/15/14 detailed in my previous post. Your account shows that there have been no further charges since then.
2. When I access a user's account I can see charges being applied in real time.

Online account shows charges for phone use yet I'm...

Hi
I have been on the phone plus had a call back from customer services as I phoned them up regarding my account showing charges for phone calls.
I struggled as they said no to start with that no charges were made but then said oh yes but they would leave a note on the system saying no charges to be included.
Seemed ok but again I check my account and see they are still charging me.
Is this an error with the BT online account system or am I going to get a nice big bill when its due?
I dont understand as the account shows my package yet the system shows charges for calls.
Has anyone come across this before and is there anyway BT can correct my on line account system?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well definitly give live chat a try.
If after that and having already phoned them, you can still not get anywhere, maybe contact the mods using this form:
If you fill in this form: http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951 with a link back to your post for ref, the mods will get back to you. it can take up to 3 days.
But to be fair to the mods, give Live Chat a try first.

I talked with the AT&T representative. AT&T doesn't support thirdparty STG#, eventhough it is a local phone#. They still charge the phone call as international phone call.
That is very strange! Please file with our Customer Service. I would be grateful if you would let me know what transpires. Thank you.

Checking recipient is not charged for my call

Hello, I'm in Australia and I'm using my prepaid Skype credit to call someone on a landline in France. When she answers the phone it asks, "Would you like to accept a call from this person?" My balance goes down at reasonable rate so I know I'm being charged for the call, but I just want to check she is not being charged at a high rate for receiving the call. Could you please advise? Thanks!

Hello
It's unlikely that the recipient world be charged for receiving a landline call but they should check with their carrier to make certain.

IPhone 3GS - Can I use existing US t-mobile SIM and German O2 SIM cards (for phone calls) without buying a data plan?

I currently use 2 phones to make calls: one t-mobile locked phone for the US and one O2 locked phone for Germany, both without data plan.
Can I upgrade using just one phone (factory unlocked iPhone 3GS) and continue to use the existing SIM cards for phone calls (just switching the SIM cards when necessary), but use free WIFI spots worldwide for internet access/data transfer?
Thanks Michael

No supported carrier, including T-Mobile in the U.S., permits the use of an iPhone without a data plan. Though it's technically possible to do it, if and when they find you, they will either charge you for a data plan or shut down your account.

How can i make a free facetime video call? There's always appearing that my provider might charge for the call?

How can i make a free facetime video call? There's always appearing that my provider might charge for the call?

If you make a call then tap the Facetime button to connect Facetime, the duration of call up to Facetime connection will be charged under your regular airtime. However, duration during facetime conversation will not consume airtime.
But if you tap the Facetime button on the Contact Page, then the whole duration will not consume airtime.
For Facetime to work, both parties must be connected to wifi.

My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

How to set iPhone Bluetooth to be just for phone calls?

Is there a way to setup an iPhone 4s/5, iOS 6, to use the bluetooth only for phone calls?
I don't want music, youtube, google maps, or any app to go thru my car speakers. Phone calls work fine because the car will switch to Bluetooth audio automatically for those. I usually have my car audio set to radio so no apps are audible in the car unless I manually switch the car to Bluetooth Audio but then I can't listen to the radio.

The only way around this, depending on the car system,
is connect the iPhone to the unit via USB.
At least with my Ford SYNC system, I can pair via
Bluetooth and connect the USB and select USB audio
on the Ford unit and in the Music app on the iPhone.
Doing this, all phoner functions go via Bluetooth and
everything else is over USB.
Perhaps your car system supports something similar
or not. If it doesn't, there is nothing you can do.

Why don't you check the manual for your car or ask your dealer?

Ringer Sound doesn't work for phone calls.

I can't get my iPhone 4S sound to work for receiving phone calls. Sound selected along with vibrate for phone calls. Miss calls everytime. Volume turned up and turned on.

Two things to check
Is the Mute switch ON ?
Do you have Do Not Disturb set ON ?

Can i use ipad wi-fi +cellular for phone calling?

can i use ipad wi-fi +cellular for phone calling?

Yes, another good VOIP resource.
Though it's important to understand that this is NOT cellular calling. The SIM in the iPad remains usable ONLY for data connectivity. There is still no voice or text capability through the operator network.

Maybe I understood your problem. Get to Settings > Sounds > Ringers and Alerts >Turn Change With Buttons to Off. And if your Side Switch is assigned to 'Mute', turn it back on, else, use the control center to turn off mute.

Reminder beep for phone calls?

Is there any way to turn on or install a reminder beep for phone calls that have been missed?

No this is not supported and although I understand some people prefer having an ongoing notification when there is a missed call or voice mail until the missed call is checked, this is the first cell phone I've used without this which I'm pleased with. All the other phones I've used include this which requires handling the phone to turn off the notification - without an on/off selection which is annoying to me so if Apple decides to add this feature with a future update, I want an on/off selection and if not, I want the download for this feature to be optional.
You can provide Apple your feedback about this here which is no guarantee Apple will include it with a future update.

Changing volume for phone calls.

is there any way to change the volume for phone calls besides the outside volume key?? I tried "sounds" in settings and it did not work.

Your volume switches work differently depending on what you are doing. You may get a readout above the "speaker" symbol that appears on the screen telling you what volume is being adjusted.
If you are not using anything, the volume switches adjust the ringer volume.
If you are playing music or video, they adjust the music/video volume.
If your headphone are plugged in, they adjust the headset volume.
If you are actually on a call, the adjust the earpiece volume or speakerphone volume (without a readout).
If you are on a phone call using bluetooth, they adjust the bluetooth volume.
Dial a recording like the National Time Signal (303) 499-7111 and adjust the volume during the call.

Subscription paid but got charged for a call

I pay a monthly subscription to Australia, yet I just made a call to a landline in Australia and it drained my Euro balance I keep for calls to other destinations. Why and what can be done about it? I can't make any calls now until this problem is rectified. My last subscription was paid 02 October. Thanks

I think this page page from the Skype support website may help ;
