Online number available in Brazil?

Hi,
Im a frequent user of skype. I use skype credits to call my family in Brazil, I live in The Netherlands. Now I need to have a online number which they can call as well.
I found an article on your website explaining what a Online Number means and the availability in other countries. What I don't understand is: the availability, does this means that you can order a online number if you live in this country or does it means that only those countries are able to call you on that number?
The goal I want to achieve is that I have a Skype number which my family can call, using their (mobile) phone and that doesn't bring extra costs to them. 
Extra info:
- I use Skype on Windows, Linux, Android
- Most of our calls are ±45 minutes
- We call twice a month, top.
Many thanks in advance.
With kind regards,
Roberto

Unfortunately, Skype does not offer Online Numbers from Brazil.  You can see the list of countries where Skype has Online Numbers at the "Online Number" link at the bottom of this web page. 
If you could get your family to use Skype in Brazil, then you could have free Skype calls, including one-on-one video calls, without having to use an Online Number or having them place international calls to reach you in Europe.

  • Discount for online number available?

    Hello,
    I am thinking about purchasing a Skype online number for my UK business.
    At the moment, it says on Skypes website that there is a 50% discount for existing subscribers. I think this does not apply to me because this would be my first online number.
    But I remember that there was some offer a while ago where you were able to receive credit towards your other subscriptions when buying an online number.
    Can anybody please help and tell me what is the best and cheapest way to get the online number or if there are any promotions or discounts currently available , hidden on Skype's website??
    I apprciate your help!
    Marko

  • Previously taken Online Number availability

    A couple of years I registered an online number with my subscription which I used for my business but for some reason all three of my numbers disappeared at some point and with them the number that I had used in a few hundred business cards as well.
    When I tried to get the number back it was coming up as unavailable in the search. I called Skype support and was told that it wasn't up to Skype when the number would become available again and was given a very vague 6 months, a year... who knows kind of answer. I was told to keep on checking and that it would become available at some point.
    I have been checking since and although the number is still unreachable it is also not available either. I reckon it must be well over a year by now.
    Is there any way to retrieve that number and finally get it again?
    Also, will there ever be more cities/towns added to the online numbers here in the UK? As a business it would be really helpful to have a local number rather than a city/town 50 miles away!
    Thanks,
    Theo

    Yes! I need Skype online number in Malaysia too!!

  • Online number in Thailand

    Is Online number available for use in Thailand? If not, when will it be available?
    Thanks in advance for your response.
    Solved!

    Hello,
    At the moment Online Numbers are not available for Thailand. Skype is constantly working adding new numbers, but as it greatly depends on local carriers and regulations it may take some time
    So far there is no exact time frame for Thailand.
    List of available countries can be found here:

    Skype, when are you going to make Online Number available in Russia?

    I agree with you - that's why I use Amazon's Kindle and have been using it since it came out. You can read on your Mac, your iPad, your iPhone, your Windows machine, your Android machine, etc.
    I've lately even taken to buying music on Amazon versus the iTunes store. But I'll never buy an iBook - I'm sticking with Kindle.

  • Online Number for Brazil no longer available?

    My online number just stoped working.  Back in May I received an email stating the Skype team had addressed the issues with Brazil Telecom and I could order online numbers, since Transit was not releasing the old numbers. I ordered a new number on July 20th thru purchase order 59645482. The number worked fine until November 20th, when friends started reporting busy tone. Today I found out, thru an agent that the number has been disconnected and that you no longer can get online numbers in Brazil. 
    Despite the fact that I was not notified or refunded, I would like to know if there is any plans to restore the Online service to Brazil and what is the timeline.

  • Online Number - Brazil

    Hello,
    I'm from Brazil, and i'm very interested in the Online Number. But, it's not available for my country, Brazil. It is possible have a Online Number from Brazil?
    Thank you

    I have an online number from Brazil, but it got deactivated.  Skype is still charging me for it.  If it is not available anymore, why can't skype openly say so?  Since Microsoft's acquisition I have noticed a decrease in quality.  I was expecting the opposite.  This is really a pity. Very disappointed...

  • Online Number - Never Available

    Can you please advise me why my online number is never available to take inbound calls, the inbound call should be routed to my voice mail. ?

    I found the following reply to a very similar question on another thread.  Seems strange, but it worked for me, so worth a try:
    First check 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.

  • Online number has not been available

    For the past couple of days my online number is not available. There is an automated voice saying that there is a high volume of calls to this number or that the number is busy ....
    Any suggestion?

    richardbirch wrote:
    Dialed the number as you suggested and it is giving me someone else's landline number - not ours.
    So next course of action is...?
    Report it to BT as a crossed line, at tell them the phone number of the line you are crossed with.
    Ask for a free divert to a mobile, if you have one, so you will not miss any calls.
    Keep a check on your bill, and note any calls which may have been made on your normal line.
    The BT line test will not show a fault, because your real line would be connected to someone else.
    An Openreach Field Technician will be needed to fix the fault, but its going to be external to your house, unless you have more that one line, and you are plugged into the wrong one.
    This can happen if someone had a cable service, which would end up with two phone master sockets.

  • Online Number in Brazil (Brasil)

    WHY does skype allow me to pay to have my online number in Brazil extended while they say they cant offer online numbers in Brazil anymore ?
    Not that this number works anyways... it cannot be dialed in by more than half the people that try to call it (from within Brasil)
    They can blame it on Transit,

    You can still get a brazil number and use it with Skype ...
    Skype actually used to carry Brazil online numbers, they dropped them earlier this year I believe.  
    Let me know if you have any questions on Skype online numbers or just virtual phone numbers in general.

  • Brazil online number

    I have a one year subscription for a online number in Brazil, and my is coming up as a nonworking number!!! Can anyone help?

    Apparently Skype are unable to provide online numbers for Brazil anymore, but they are supposed to continue with the existing ones until expiry. This is not happening and no one from Skype knows anything about it. The issue is we are UNABLE to get support from Skype, but they are happy to pocket our money. Thanks for trying to help.

  • Is Online number for Singapore available?

    Is Online number for Singapore available?

    Hi, Perryco, and welcome to the Community,
    If you click on the link provided by Norman, above, you will be transferred to the information about obtaining a Skype Number.  Clicking on the box on the right side of that window to check the list of countries where a Skype Number is available will show that Singapore does not appear on the list. 
    Unfortunately, due to one or more legitimate reasons, not all countries or locations can or do participate in the Skype Number program.  Skype does not announce when new countries are added to the list; we would have to check back periodically.

  • WHEN will online number be available in CANADA?

    I would love to have this functionality with Skype.  Ideally, I'd like to have an Alberta area code (403, 587 or 780) or British Columbia area code (250)...
    Is this ever going to happen?  In the near future??? 
    Thanks to anyone that might have an answer with insight!

    I sympathise with you on this subject.  I have been with Skype for 5 years or more.. I have the unlimited calls to Canada & Usa for $3/month. The service is getting better . I've paid for an american online number for over three years and now dropped it... Always hoping Skype would finally give us a Canadian list of area codes from which to chose... I recently bought a telephone adaptor that connects directly to my router so I don't need anymore to have my computer turned on so I can use the phone...
    You know what ? I think Skype does not care a bit about us Canadians.... I have stopped believing they will ever put in the cash and effort in to get us Canadian telephone codes...
    The solution : I'll soon get either a MagicJack+ or a NetTalk system... They both offer Canadian telephone codes and they both cost less than Skype for unlimited calls to Canada and USA.... They also both connect directly to your router so you don't need to have a computer running to originate or receive calls with any normal house phone....
    I have friends that use both MagicJack+ and NetTalk and I can assure you the service is at least as good if not better than Skype. A Canadian Online number is important to me and getting a different service seems to me the only way to get it.
