Free calls between US & Canada?

Can I skype between U.S. and Canada for free?
[Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "US & Canada"]

If the call is Skype to Skype (client to client), then yes.  If the call is Skype to Phone, then that would require credit or a subscription, which is not free.

  • Free calls between iPad users

    What's the best App or software to make calls between ipad users???
    And I'll like to know what is MobileMe exactly? Does it work on ipad???

    Mobile Me works great. In a nutshell it automatically syncs your most important data (emails, contacts, calendars etc) to the web site and all your devices. The link will explain further but I just wanted to say I am a long time, satisfied customer. Many other companies have popped up in the past few years which syncing data of various kinds, mostly documents. Google also is great for syncing but I've never found a solution as simple and painless as MobileMe. Some people would rather manage it all themselves than pay $99 a year. I'm willing to pay it for the peace of mind. I get my money's worth. I'm on the move a LOT, use an iphone, laptop, iMac, iPad and sometimes friends computers. MobileMe has never let me down, never caused a headache, automatically replaced my data when my hard drive was wiped out. The service works great but it's a matter of whether or not it's worth it to you. Good luck.

    First, check
    1. Settings > General > Restrictions: should be OFF > FaceTime: ON?
    2. Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime: ON?
         ou can be reached by FaceTime at: your phone number?
    If all the above are correct, see below:
    FaceTime is available with iPhone 4 or latter, except those iPhones that were sold in the Middle East.
    Can you tell us which iPhone model that has no FaceTime?

  • Are calls between iphone to iphone free?

    I was wondering on how to use my iphone without adding to the expense

    Calls between cellular devices use carrier minutes. Many offer free mobile to mobile, however that is up to the carrier. One advantage to using the iPhone is the ability to make Facetime calls if you are connected to wifi. Many carriers now are offering Facetime over cellular network if you are using iOS6. Using this however, uses your data. There are also apps like Skype that you can use over wifi as well, but to truly answer your question, calls between iPhones are not free.

    Generally not. Some service providers do offer that service though where you can setup X number of contacts and the calls between those numbers do not count as air time as long as they are local.

  • How can I transfer my Skype to free call, not cred...

    How can I transfer my skype to free call not cridet
    Enquiry transferred to create new topic;
    subject/title edited accordingly.

    Hi, HanaDabbas, and welcome to the Community,
    Calls between Skype users are always free of any charge; if your calls require credit (or ask for a subscription), this means you are placing calls to fixed or land lines or mobile numbers, which require credit or a subscription to pay for the call charges.
    You do not need to "change" your account; simply add those to whom you wish to call to your Skype contacts list.  They will need to create their own Skype accounts in order to do this.  More details here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10935/calling-someone-who-s-on-skype-windows-desktop   This FAQ article is customized for several other operating systems and mobile platforms.

  • Subscription free calls

    Hi I have subscribed to Unlimited World plan.  I had initially selected China calls to be free.  I would now like to change free calls to Singapore instead.  How do I do it ?

    If you have a skype subscription are calls free to a landline or cell phone. My son is in Germany now and I have not used skype yet to call a phone. I saw a rate price for phone calls but I thought a subscirption allowed you free calls to phones via skype. What is your refund policy if I don't like the service?
    It depends on the subscription you purchase.  Not all subscriptions cover calls to mobile (cell) phones, since the rates to call mobile phones are higher than calling landline phones in most countries.  If you were wanting to call your son in Germany, you would need to confirm what type of phone you would be calling, before purchasing the subscription.  You would need to get a subscription specific to Germany if you would be calling a mobile phone, as the Unlimited Europe and Unlimited World subscriptions don't cover calling to German mobile phones. 
    If you were not planning to make regular calls to the phones in Germany, you could just purchase Skype Credit and pay for each call made to phones.  Rates differ for most countries between landline and mobile phones, so be mindful of that. 
    Hope that helps!

  • How to change the country for free calls?

    For a while I have a Skype Premium subscription. When setting up this, the question was asked, to which country I wanted to make free calls to land and mobile phones. Because of the wording (to which country?), I assumed that this should not be my home country, so I filled in a neighbour country. Later I found out, that I cannot make calls to phones in my own country. Question: how can I change that setting?

    Hi Grant & lllaass
    OK, location services was on.  Followed the directions at the link for changing the signed-in iTunes Store. Viewed my Apple ID.  It showed my country/region as Canada.  The only change I made was to turn on location services for Safari.  For some reason, that was set to "off".  Otherwise, everything looked right.  I shut down the iPod and restarted. Went into the App Store and downloaded the update. Seems OK now.  Bizarre.
    Anyway thanks for your help!

    Is calling between iphones free? Local and Long distance?

    Voice calling rates are set by carrier. My carrier gives free calling to other people on the same carrier. Check with yours to find out what your rates are.

  • Divide discount of free goods between several items (SO)

    Hi gurus,
    I need to split the cost of the free good between the items generating it, i.e. if the customer buy 5pcs of Mat A and 4pcs of Mat B he gets 1pcs of Mat C for free. He will only see the original price for the "main" items and zero for the free good but intenally the profit margin of the "main" materials should be deducted with the cost of the free good and the free good should have full profit margin as if it was sold for full price.
    I'm aware that this is not standard SAP functionality and that I probably need to change a user exit in program MV45AFZZ.
    Please help me with this problem! Any advice or tips are highly appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Mia

    Is it possible to solve this problem by modifying a user exit? I was considering creating a new pricing condition which should be inflicted between the net value and profit margin by the user exit so that the customer only sees the original values for the main materials but the profit margins are reduced with the price of the free goods directly in the order. Is this doable?

  • Getting Truphone to work with Google Talk to make a free call

    I'm trying to make a free call from my iPhone to my home computer using Truphone.
    I installed Truphone on my iPhone and I have a Google Talk account on my Mac using Jabber in iChat. I'm trying to get the two the communicate with each other to make a phone call. Truphone requires me to call Google Talk using this number/code: [email protected] to invite it to engage in a phone call with the iPhone. Once the invite is accepted, then it will work - it says. Problem is that i cannot add this letters ([email protected]) on my iPhone to the mobile number field, only numbers. I am able to do it on my Mac and sync it to my iPhone, but for some reason the @ symbol gets dropped out of it and it won't work otherwise.
    Has anyone had this same issue and was able to get it to work? Or...has anyone been able to get Truphone to be able to call their Mac using wifi to make a free call?

    I sent a question to Truphone regarding this issue and this was their response. Bummer.
    Dear K D,
    Unfortunately it is not currently possible to dial SIP addresses
    ([email protected]) using the Truphone iPhone client. This includes calling
    Google Talk addresses.
    The Truphone service for the iPhone is an outbound calling solution. When
    you're connected to Truphone you're able to make cheap Truphone calls over the
    Internet. Please note that inbound calls will be received via your mobile/cell
    network and not via Truphone.
    New Truphone accounts for the iPhone won’t be assigned a separate Truphone
    number. Instead your outgoing caller id will be presented as your
    mobile/cellular number that you entered during the installation process.
    Calls to other Truphone users who are using Nokia devices are free when both
    parties are online.
    If you have any further queries please reply to this email for assistance.

  • How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?

    How do I make a hands free call with the iphone 4s?  I have a bluetooth car device and when I try to talk through it (as I did with my old phone) to call someone it does not work.  so far only hte last person called is redialed.

    That is a carrier-based service. So first you have to make sure your service contract includes that feature.
    It usually also includes Call Hold. So you call the first party, put them on hold, call the second, then reactivate the first. But only if your carrier allows you to.
