  • HELP!!!!!! I cannot renew my annual Skype Number s...

    Hi,
    I am sorry to bother you with this but after 15 minutes of searching I could not find any support number, email address or anything for Skype. Is this true??????? A paid service with no support? Just a bunch of FAQ items that does not help?
    The problem is: I have some Skype Numbers. Before they expire, I usually receive a warning and then I go there and manually pay $60 to extend them for another year. At least this is how it worked in the past.
    Now I received an email saying that my automatic payment (whaaaaat???) failed and my Skype Number will expire within 2 days.
    The problems are:
    1. I have never asked them to debit my account automatically.
    2. And especially not with $18 which is 3 months only. I want another year.
    3. Nothing changed with my credit cars do why did it fail?
    4. Where have all the manual payment options gone???????
    There is no button or any option to pay manually. It only allows me to change the payment method. There is no way I can pay the annual fee.
    Is this a Microsoft trick so that I will lose my number? Can anyone help me as apparently there is no support for Skype but a bunch of useless FAQ items. I pay for this service but I cannot get help.
    Anyone, please, help. I do not want this to expire. This is the number my mother calls me at from the other side of the planet. This is VERY important to me. This is the only way she can contact me. Please, help.
    Thank you in andvance.
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    As I understand it, the process is simply to cancel the three-month subscription (you can do this via your account or by contacting Skype Customer Service).  You will not lose your current Skype Number; it will be held for you for 90 days following the end of the current subscription term).  Then, after the subscription expires, sign on to your account and renew your Skype Number for the term you wish.  If you wish to cover the cost using Skype Credit, ensure there is enough credit on account prior to renewing.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    As you know you intend to contact Customer Service, skip past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip past in Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started.

  • Skype number help please!

    Hello!Need an advise.Can't find answers to several questions.
    If I get a Skype number:
    1. Can I receive text messages if sent to Skype number?
    2. How many seconds it takes to connect calls (very important to know)
    3. Can the number be put on hold if not required and be saved for me to use in future?
    Thanks for your help!

    1.  No incoming SMS is not supported.2.  For me it's been 1-3 seconds and that is with most of my calls being forwarded through another service as well (2 forwards).  It's been like that for the over 8 years I've used the number. Other people have mentioned longer durations to the point when people hangup (like 6 seconds or so).  Some claim nothing resolves that problem, others claim it's solved by having a computer connected 24x7 to a stable connection vs. going through a mobile device.  Skype provide no ringing adjustment other than time delays (1, 2 seconds, etc.) which would increase the duration.  My configuration is on 24x7 and some of my computers on the wired/wireless network respond faster than others on the same Internet connection.3.  The number is essentially leased for a duration (3, 6, 12 months) and is enabled for that long.  So the usage can't be placed on hold.    Choosing a shorter duration and canceling it when not needed would be best.  After expiration the number itself would still be attached to you account and reserved for 90 days.   So that is one method of hold.  Beyond 90 days it's made available to others.

  • Never Used Skype Number Before - Help!

    I am going on my honeymoon to Virgin Islands.  Can my elderly mother in the US call my US Skype Number from her landline to reach me in case of an emergency or do I need to set up a Virgin Island Skype number?

    Hello,
    Yes she can. Your US Skype Number travels with you anywhere. Your location is irrelevant as  long as your computer or device has a high speed internet connection.

  • Need help with understanding Skype Number please

    Hi there,
    Not sure if this is posted twice!
    I live in the UK and am trying to offer online coaching through a company in America. I can only offer live chat sessions if I have a US or Canadian number. Is it a Skype Number that I need? Why would it matter which State I choose - will people only be able to contact me from that State?
    Would be really grateful for some clarity.
    Many thanks,
    Solved!

    Hi, Tracy255, and welcome to the Community,
    Unfortunately, for several reasons, Skype Numbers are not available in Canada.
    The concept of any virtual number is to provide a way for people who do not have accounts on the service to contact the subscriber, but using a fixed line or land line number.  In the case of Skype Numbers in the United States, the best scenario would be to have a number set up where most of your customers would be able to call without incurring high toll charges or ideally no toll charges.  Of note, not all states participate in the Skype Number program, again for any number of legitimate reasons.
    Skype does not offer "toll-free" numbers.
    Here is a link to the library of FAQ articles related to Skype Numbers seeing as I believe you will have more questions than I have provided information for!
    https://support.skype.com/en/category/ONLINE_NUMBE​R_SKYPEIN/
    Please pardon the naming convention confusion; today's Skype Numbers where formerly known as Online Numbers or Skype In.

    Elaine

  • Is there any way to receive SMS on a Skype number?

    I just purchased a Skype number today and will be using Skype via the Skype app on my iPhone.  I've set up voicemail and have already testing calling out to a regular number from my Skype app/number and having someone call in to my Skype number.  It works great but the issue is with SMS texting.
    I realize that although I have the $2.99 plan for unlimited US/Canada calling that it does not include SMS text messaging. I realized I need Skype credit for that so just purchased $10 of Skype credit.  I see that it costs 11.2 cents to send an SMS text to a US based phone number.  Here is the issue.  If I read correctly you can only send an SMS text from a Skype number and there's no way you can receive a SMS text at a Skype number.  Is this true?  Since most of my communication is via SMS this means that Skype would be of very little use to me.
    Is there any way you can have Skype forward incoming SMS texts to your regular cell phone number?  Although this isn't my preference I realize people will try to send SMS texts to my Skype number. I don't want to forward voice calls to my cell # but if I'm able to forward SMS texts from my Skype number when they come in to my regular cell phone # this would solve that problem.  
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi, Santosh..., and welcome to the Community,
    I would recommend testing the SMS reply forwarding to your mobile number.  Depending upon the results and if this works for you, you could then contact Skype Customer Service to cancel and request a refund.
    In other words, SMS will be received via your mobile number, not via your Skype Number.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • Error message when extending skype number

    Hi guys
    Really hope someone can help me with this. Been dealing with skype chat and email support for hours and hours over last three days with absolutely no progress.
    I have 8 skype numbers within my skype manager account and for some reason, one of them did not renew properly last week (the others renew every month or quarter). When I follow the steps to extend the number within the manager control panel (features, skype number, click on expired number, select "reactive number", pick monthly, quarterly or annual payments), I get the following message.
    Service Unavailable
    We're having technical problems. We're sorry for the inconvenience. Please try again after a few minutes.
    The same message appears on IE, Firefox and Chrome. This is our main office number and its incredibly frustrating for us. If I try to extend via the individual skype account (rather than manager control manager) I either get an error message or a message saying "your request has been sent to your administrator"
    Is there a solution out there? Is this a bug?

    Having same problem.  Spent one hour w/ Chat support, no joy.  Anyone get this addressed, and if so, what did you have to do? 

  • Need to Immediately Deactivate a Skype Number

    I purchased a Skype number that turns out to have been previously owned by a scam operation and is still receiving calls.  I alreaday purchased a second Skype number to replace it, and canceled the first number.  
    The problem is that the first number is still active until the end of the subscription in 2015.   
    How can I deactivate this number immediately?   I don't expect a refund, I just want it to go away  now.    I really don't want to shut down the entire Skype account and lose my Skype name just to deactivate a phone number.

    Hi, Kevin, and welcome to the Community,
    Skype needs to be alerted - and due to the nature of the number being abused, I would request a refund!  Here is a link to the instruction on how to request a refund: request a refund
    Better yet, here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Here are a few extra notes to help you find your way:
    You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the webform and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail.
    If you are a Skype Premium or other eligible customer, you will be routed to start an instant message chat session with a Customer Service agent.

  • My Skype Number is going to be deactivated?

    Hello,
    I recieved a email two days ago saying that my skype number will be deactivated in the next two days. Today is the last day to renew it. Skype must have tried to charge my pay pal account since that was the last time how I paid for it. I switch over to my card so it can be billed, but it doesn't allow you to pay for it. It just allows you to change your billing method. This number is what I use for my office line and any assistance in this matter will be appreciated. Thanks!

    please contact Skype customer service

  • My Skype number is about to expire?

    I have just received an email saying my Skype number is about to expire, but there is money in the account. Why would they do that and will they refund the money still there? Could it be because I haven't used the Skype number for a while, and if I do use it in the meantime will the expiration be stopped?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    1. Allow your current Skype Number subscription to expire. You won't lose your number -- it will be held on your account for reactivation for 90 days following the subscription expiration date.
    2. After the subscription expires sign on to your account details.  You should be presented with a triangle icon with an exclamation mark inside it and be greeted with the message that your Skype Number subscription has expired.  Click on the "Reactivate" link and proceed to "renew". You should now be able to renew.

  • What is my Skype number for freinds to call?

    Hi there,
    I have bought some skype credits for unlimited calling but the number that shows up when i call someone starts with 000 so when someone tries to call that number back to talk to me it takes them straight to and operator since it starts with 0.
    I was curious what my actuall number is so that people can call me back also. I looked into getting a skype number but i can get one in the US but i live in Canada so that is fairly useless.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    -BCG.

    Hi, laurap,
    Trish's instruction works for me on Windows using FireFox.  Perhaps a few screen shots may help:  On your main account page, click on the Skype Number box.
    Then, you should land here (I have redacted my personal details):
    Clicking on the <- arrow inside the pale blue circle will take you back to your main account page.
    Hope this helps!

  • My Skype number is not ringing

    My skype number is not ringing or answering when it called
    it worked great for a few weeks

    We need more information. Do you have a subscription that covers mobiles such as a US subscription? If not you will need skype credit to forward to your mobile. Have you set your privacy settings to allow anyone to call. Like this.
    First check that your privacy settings are set to ''Allow calls from anyone''.
    Then change them to "Allow SkypeIn calls from Only people from my Contacts List".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.
    Change settings back to "Allow calls from Anyone".
    Save and wait for 5 minutes.
    Log out from your Skype account and log back in.
    I hope this sloves the problem.
