I want to change my Skype number.

The Skype number I have is giving me tons of calls and voice mail for someone else and I want to get rid of it but can't. Please help.

Hi, RKJR, and welcome to the Community,
The only way to change your Skype Number is to cancel the subscription you have, and to start a new Skype Number subscription.

Elaine

  • Changing my Skype number and keeping my credit on ...

    Can I change my skype number and transfer my credit for a new Skype number?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Skype numbers and credit are tied to the account.  If you add an additional Skype number or replace the number with a new one when the old one expires, then the credit won't change since it's still tied to the account.  If you want to transfer the credit from one account to another then as far as I know,  it's not possible on standard accounts.  If you recently purchased credit within the past 15 days that you didn't use, you could request a refund.  You could then apply the money from the refund towards credit on another account.

    Hi, jsfchan, and welcome to the Community, Do you recall at what point during the new account set-up process that you were being presented with having to purchase any subscription, in your case for a Skype Number ?  Could it be possible you were offered a free Skype To Go number? Thank you,Elaine

  • Can I change my Skype number?

    I want to change my number to a Canadian number. The subscription renewed on Aug. 15th and I haven't used the number since then except for receiving one voice message. Is it too late to change it, or to cancel it, get a refund and get a new number?

    Due to various regulatory issues, Skype Numbers are not available in Canada.

  • How to change a Skype number without cancelling the subscription?

    Hi there,
    I had purchased a Skype number of UK and it works well but now for some security reasons, I wish to change the number but without giving up my subscription. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi, Supermom1110, and welcome to the Community, Simple answer: no. A Skype Number subscription is tied to the number.  For clarification, a Skype Number subscription is separate from and unrelated to a Skype Calling Subscription which offers discounted prices for placing calls to land lines (and in some cases, mobile numbers). Regards,Elaine

    Changing your skype name is not possible, you may offcourse make a new skype account with your desired skype name.
    But, that's stupid. Users should have the right to change their skype name. Besides, most forums don't allow users to have multiple accounts even with a different username which is against the forum rules. What's wrong with us changing our username?

    Hi, Anazens, and welcome to the Community!
    Skype does not permit account names to be changed once they are created.  Your only choice is to change the name as it is displayed, or to start over with a new account.  Remember, you can transfer your contacts from your old account to your new account.
    Please review the information in this FAQ article:
    Can I Delete My Skype Account?
    and then please contact Skype Customer Service to file your request as indicated in the instructions.

    Elaine

  • HT1918 I need to billing n want to change my MasterCard number but can't change so can't billing

    I need help for my billing

    What happens when you try to change it to you MasterCard, do you get any error messages ? You should be able to change it by logging into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View My Apple ID menu option, and on that there should be a payment section with an Edit button to the right of it, or on your iPhone by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and viewing your account.
    If the card is being declined then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including spacing and format) as you have on your iTunes account, you are currently in that country, and you've checked with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it ?

    Can I change my mexico skype number to a new location in same country, from mexico to guadalajara

    Hi, Davegel, and welcome to the Community,
    The only way to change a Skype Number is to cancel the current subscription, and to start a new one.  In other words, a Skype Number cannot be changed.    Its simplicity affords no flexibility.
    Happy New Year,

  • Change Skype number

    Hi
    Is there any way I can change my Skype number? I need to change the area code or first 3 digits

    Hi, mwa1, and welcome to the Community,
    Unfortunately, no.  The only way to change your Skype Number is to cancel your current subscription, which stops its renewal, and to choose a new Skype Number.
