RE: Subscriptions vs.. Pay as you go Bahamas

I live in Canada and am considering buying a 400 minute subscription for the Bahamas, but I already have skype to go, and spend about $20.00 - $30.00 on skype credit, on top of having a 60 minute subscription that I recently cancelled. If I cancel the skype to go for the subscription, can I still make phone calls to the Bahamas from my cell phone using my subscription. And is it cheaper to have the subscription? Or will I need to keep both. Also, what extra charges are involved in skype to go?
Thanks!

Hi,
Skype To Go is just a number that you can call from your cell phone and it will enable you to make calls from your Skype account. Adding Skype To Go to your Skype account doesn't cost anything.
Most people sit behind their computer, log in with Skype and make calls to landline/mobile numbers. In order to pay for these calls customers can use either Skype Credit or a subscription. Subscription is more suitable for customers who reguraly make lot of calls. For example if you know that you will be calling about 400minutes to Bahamas then subscripton is more suitable, because there won't be connection fees and overall cost should be lower.
But if you purchase Bahamas 400 and only make 1-2 calls then Skype Credit is definitely more suitable. Skype Credit(Pay as you go) is for users who don't call so much and make calls only once in a while. As the name says, you pay when you need to make a call.
If customers can't make calls from their computer then this is where Skype To Go comes in. Basically Skype To Go is just a number that you call, it will connect you with Skype and sort of asks Skype to make a call from your Skype account to desired destination. Therefore if you wish to use your cell phone to call through Skype instead of sitting behind your computer then you should keep Skype To Go number.

Is In Browser Editing available if I cancel my pay as you go Muse subscription?

Hi people. As a newcomer to Muse I'm basically paying for Muse as and when I have a customer that needs a website designing hence what I want to know is if I design a website and then cancel my pay as you go subscription will my client then suddenly find they can't edit it anymore? Do I need to be paying for muse all the time for in browser editing to work?

Use of https://inbrowserediting.adobe.com is not dependent on having an active Muse subscription. Your client can continue to use it after your Muse subscription expires.

Move VM from Trial to Pay-as-you-go subscription

Hi,
     I created a VM in trial. Now I created a pay-as-you-go subscription. But the VM cannot change to the new subscription automatically.
    How can I move the VM to the new subscription? After moved, will the domain name and IP be changed?
Thanks.

Cancel pay-as-you-go! Monthly subscription is act...

Andy. McGovern3. I want to cancel pay-as-you-go! As I have already contributed to monthly subscription. And told that it is activated. However, when I make a phone call. The money is taken out of my pay-as-you-go eight euros remaining! I would like if you would direct me and this problem. Andy McGovern

Hi Andy,
Payment agreement for the "Auto-Recharge" can be cancelled as explained here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1042/
And the reason why money is taken out of your Skype Credit is a fact that that you call mobile numbers. Only calls to landlines are included in your subscription.
I hope it helps!

Can I have Subscriptions and have Pay As You Go at...

Can I have subscriptions for a particular country and have pay as you go credits for other countries at the same period of time? How does it work? Much appreciated.

Hi,
Short answer is YES.
If you have a subscription that covers for example US then every time you call US subscription will be used and if you call any other country then by default Skype Credit will be used because subscription only covers US.

Pay as you go subscription on both MAC and WIN?

Hello If I subscribe to the pay as you go subscription on CS5.5 Master production. Can I use that same serial on both my PC or my MAC?

Don't think you can do this with the CS5.5 subscriptions... you have to choose one or the other at time of purchase.
However, you should still be able to do multi-platform with a business license - there Adobe gives you two serial numbers with the "Multiple Platforms" selection. And you can upgrade from previous versions.
Hope this helps!

How to access VMs in pay-as-you-go after they were created during free trail and trail ended?

I created a pay-as-you-go subscription but I'm still unable to connect to the VMs made during the free trial. My only option available when I select a VM is to delete it. What must I do to access the VM? Thanks.

hi Plixicon,
Please check your subscription is not in suspended status. Also I suggest you could connect to Azure support ASAP, it's free, and it's the best choice for you.
Please contact support team by creating a support ticket at http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/contact/
Or if that doesn't work because you don't have an active subscription you will need to contact general customer support to have them create a support ticket for you

I want to switch from Pay As You Go to Subscription but still have 10 bucks on Pay As You Go. If I switch to Subscription I will be charged new amount of money. How to transfer that balance to Subscription? ThankS!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, Ira_Morozova, and welcome to the Community,
Skype does not have any means to pay for a single product via multiple sources. Think about these strategies as a work-arounds:
Add enough credit to cover the cost of the subscription you wish to purchase.
When you purchase the subscription, designate the payment method as credit.
Remember to change the payment method to something else shortly thereafter so your subscription renews automatically, unless you do not wish to do it this way.
Or,
Purchase the subscription using credit, but in smaller time increments until your credit balance is reduced as far as possible, and then change the payment method to something else.

Elaine

How do I top up my Azure pay-as-you-go?

My free trial expired and I added a pay-as-you-go subscription to my account. I can't figure out how to top it up by, for example, 10€. Alternatively, I would like to just pay whatever it costs to start the VM I have, grab a file on it and then shut down
the VM so even paying by the minute would be better. How could I do either of these things?
Just to clarify, after adding this subscription, I still don't have the ability to turn on my VMs. I only have the "delete" option when I select one of them.

Hi Plixicon,
Thanks for posting!
Base on my experience, when we remove the spending limit, Windows Azure begins charging for services at the pay-as-you-go rate when your credits are used up. Charges continue until credits become available for use at the next billing cycle, or until you
turn on the spending limit again.From your description, I guess your service may be suspended in this billing period. I suggest you could see this page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/dn465781.aspx
). Also,for this billing issue, you could contact the azure support (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/contact/ ) for
more details.
Please try it.

Some subscriptions and/or Limited Minute plans are offered by your location, so it's best to check here: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/prices/pay-monthly
That said, in many cases there are two types of limited minute plans, one includes landlines only the other both landlines and mobiles.
You can combine whatever you wish. You could have subscriptions, limited minute plans and Skype credit combinations.
If a call is not covered by a subscription or a limited minute plan, then it will use Skype credit to cover the call.
About Me You can also use a IP Camera as your camera for Skype video Example Instructions

I have a subscription for unlimited Canada & US, and a pay as you go balance. When I make a call to within Canada & US, how do I ensure that the call will be covered by my subscription and not charged to my pay as you go balance?

DPickRN,
Making sure you don't miss any messages is very important and we would be happy to go over your options today. Are you using the Visual voicemail or do you call *86 to access your voicemails?

Pay as you go - The Charge against Skype Credit Ra...

Thank you Skype for your Service but I do feel a little let down and don not understand the Charging against my Skype Credit Account ?
I have been trialing the last Free Trial of Worldwide Unlimited Calls. I really only call the USA, so want to buy this Subscription and not the Worldwide and also wanted to compare the savings if I were to just Pay as You Go ?
If I I understand correctly the Pay as you Go rates of 1.6p a minute plus the 3.4p Connection charge.
However, I tried to MAKE two calls to a USA Cell phone and even though I did not even get through.
I had 20p deducted from my existing Skype Credit balance.
Can you explain why ??

As long as you keep renewing your account every 30 days by adding the $15.00 your account will stay active and the money will be carried over up to $1,000.00 dollars. If you have had the cell for more than 6 months you can get a contract or monthly plan and you will be given credit for the money on your phone. I use the extra money for long distance calls since I do not have a long distance carrier on my landline, also if you text you can use it that way. If you put in a $30.00 prepaid card it will be good for 90 days so that would save you $15.00 every 90 days by not buying the $15.00 card every 30 days also you can buy a $100.00 card and it would be good for one year.
