Is it free to Call a Skype Number from Skype?

Hello... My girlfriend is overseas and and she has a skype number. Since I have skype, I would like to know if calling her to her skype number from sjype will cost me money...
Thanks

Dear Readers,
To clarify Sailorchibi's reply, above:

If you have a subscription in place to cover the cost of the call, then there ought to be no additional charges. If your subscription(s) will not cover call costs, then Skype credit would. However, I am curious as to why you would not contact her as a Skype-to-Skype call, seeing as you both hold Skype accounts, thereby incurring no call charges?
Skype would consider a call to a Skype Number as an out-bound call to a fixed line number.
Regards,
Elaine

The below means called the online number from inside uk from +4413000000???
This call was forwarded from +4413000000

Unfortunately, it is not possible to transfer Online Numbers between accounts. You can, however, set up call forwarding from one account to another to be able to receive calls when being logged into either one. Please see http://www.skype.com/intl/en/features/allfeatures/call-forwarding/

Calling a phone number from Reminders

Why can I NOT call a phone number from Reminders or any other Task software I have downloaded? With my old Blackberry, the number would be in blue and all I had to do was tap the number to make the phone call.

Was this a mobile number or home number as home numbers for me anyway don't work if the area code hasn't been included

Is there an ical/iphone app that allows you to call a phone number from ica

I schedule hourly appointments with clients and type the name and phone number for each client directly on the schedule. Does anybody know of an app that would allow me to simply tap on that phone number from ical to call the client? Otherwise, i have to look at ical on my phone, remember the number, click to phone and enter it in manually. Thanks!

There no app for that, no. But, if you enter the number into the Notes field of the appointment (but not the name or location fields), you can tap the number to dial it from the Calendar app.

I tried to call a land line phone and a mobile phone
the program give me the sound it give when it starts to dial a number
but no after that no dial toon is heard
finally a massage appears saying no answer
at first I thought the other part is not answering
but when I tried to call my own mobile number it did the same

Another possibility is the phone. Some years ago I experienced a similar problem and after much back and forth with the phone company, the fault turned out to be my telephone.

Lenovo A6000 displaying all contats as unknown(Not even displaying Caller's Phone Number in details)

Hi guys,
I recently bought a lenovo A6000 smartphone. Whenever i receive a call it is not showing any Caller ID details(not even Caller's Phone number). It is showing as Unknown caller and in details there is no information regarding phone number.
Can somebody please help me in fixing this issue.
Thanking you in advance.

It looks to me that itsTalkTalk you should be annoyed with, someone moving into an adjacent flat, so the address will be very similar, calls whoever they want to use, you seem to think it's BT but don't say why you think it's BT, and says they want service, the customer service rep incorrectly identifies your mothers flat and says there is already a line in the flat, do you want to take it over, they obviously said yes, this is what generated the letter from TT, and when you called them they should have rejected the takeover and the whole job would have been cancelled, this obviously didn't happen. The line in the exchange is swapped over, that's why for a short period your mother had another number on the line, confirmed by the fact you got a call from another number , called it back and your mother answered, and she got a call on that number from someone calling their own mother, but yours answered... The person from the other flat reports a fault, line not working, it never could work as the order was a takeover not a provide, Openreach send an engineer who moves the physical cable pair from your mothers flat to the other persons flat to give them service, because they have a valid account and your mother no longer has. TT should have followed your instruction when you said you hadn't asked for the line to be taken over, and presumably the new 'neighbour' should have taken more care when calling their provider with the address, and shouldn't have said yes to taking over an existing line when they couldn't have been sure there was a line in their flat. Its not much help, but these things happen in multi occupancy residences, especially when someone doesn't know if a line exists where they are moving to, and who the service provider with that line is. Even if you are correct and the new neighbour with your mothers 'line' is with BT, they are unlikely to be able to do anything for a TT customer, it's up to TT to sort this out for you and your mother.

Costs of calling an online number ?

Hi
I am looking to get an online number - I do not have a landline and my friend does not have a very useful contract on the their mobile , lol. We are both in the UK.
If they call my online number from their landline, will the call be treated as if they were dialing any other UK number i.e. will it still fall in under their landline call packages ?
Hope that makes sense..... Thanks and Happy New Year !!

Yes, calling an online number costs exactly as calling any other number in the same area code.

Can I use Skype to go to call a Skype number?

Hello,
I would like to call another skype user from my mobile phone, my internet connection is not stable enough from time to time to use the skype app.
Can I get a free Skype to go number, call this number and get connected to a skype number? Or is it for landline and mobile numbers only?
Thank you and greetings!

Calling my Skype Number results in busy signal.

I tested my Skype number from my cell phone an my landline, and I get a busy signal each time. I have to do a consulation via Skype, but now I cannot. I just updated my 3-month subscription and my account shows that the number is active. Should I get a new Skype number? I need this to work.

Hi, MarthBee, and welcome to the Community!
Please check this first: in the Windows version of the Skype client software,
Tools -> Options -> Calls -> be sure that Allow calls to my Skype number(s) from... anyone is ticked or checked in -> Save.
Please try your tests again, ensuring that your mobile phone is not already signed on to Skype at the same time.

Elaine

I've tried calling my skype number

Hi I wanted to see if my skype number worked. I tried calling it from my land line from my house in France. I got an auto message saying the number is invalid. I tried with and without the national code. Please let me know how my friends and family can call my Skype number. I'm traveling starting from Oct 1 in Mexico, and I would like it to work before I go. Thank you.

Can I call a Skype to Go USA number from my Skype ...

Hi There,
I'm travelling to Europe (France & Spain) from India. Since Skype hasn't started the Skype to Go in India, I was thinking of going for a Skype to Go number in the USA, which my family will call from their existing Skype credit (through WiFi on iPhone). One Skype to Go number of the USA will be configured to call France and another to call Spain.Therefore, when someone calls my USA number (either through a landline in India or through Skype), it will be routed to my France/Spain local mobile number, which I will purchase on arrival. I wish to know if this (calling from Skype to the Skype to Go number) is really possible. If not, what can be the solution. Also kindly suggest any alternate route other than the USA which will be more reasonable.
One may ask why take so much trouble, and rather not call directly from Skype to the local France/Spain mobile number. The issue is that I wish to be accessible to other important people who do not use Skype, and will call from their Indian landlines to the USA (caling from India-USA on landline is quite reasonable compared to other countries). I will share my Skype to Go numbers with whom I want to be in touch when abroad.
I chose USA since India-USA on Skype/Indian landline is cheap & USA-Europe is again reasonable with unlimted packages on Skype pay as you go. Please get back to me.

Skype shows that it is calling the wrong number

(Skype version 7.2.0.103 running on a Windows 8.1 desktop computer.)
As of this morning I been having an issue with skype where it shows that it is calling the first of three numbers I have set up for a contact, even when it is in fact calling one of the other numbers.
For inscance I select to call the second number for the contact (the office number), skype shows that it is calling the first number (the cell phone). Skype actually calls the office number (as was selected), it just indicates that it is calling the cell number.
Confusing/Annoying problem, but not critical.
