Skype call to mobiles and landlines

I bought skype credit and managed to make one call to a mobile phone. The next calls I have attempted to make to mobile phones or landlines have failed.
Skype credit is full. Internet connection is strong. I am calling different numbers and I am having the same issue. I have tried calling the same numbers from another skype account on a Mac and it works.
Only Skype to Skype over the internet is working.
Please help. This is very incovenient to call clients.
Kind regards

this sounds like a restriction that is being imposed by carriers in the UAE, not Skype
Regards,
Neil

  • Free worldwide calls to mobiles and landlines for a month

    Hi,I have received an email saying that I can have free Worldwide calls for one month. I am going to Tunisia at the end of April and want to ring UK every day because my parents both have cancer.So if I use my UK mobile phone in Tunisia to ring a UK landline number will it be completely free? or will I have to pay a rate per minute. I can't believe it'll be completely free. In fact if the calls don't have to be paid for, at £8.49 a month it'll be worth doing every time I go on holiday. Thanks in advance

    Hello, I moved to Amsterdam recently and the "pay as you go" plan is now not practical.I attempted to sign up for Unlimited World calls to landline and mobiles but when I selected Free trial button, I received a message that the offer expired or is not available to my skype login. I only have one Skype login.I just signed up for Premium service thinking maybe I need to do this first, then I can upgrade to Unlimited World but that didn't work either.How can I sign up for Unlimited World? I don't care about the free trial, I want to sign for a monthly subscription that best meets my current international mobile and landline calling needs. Thanks for you helpNancy

  • Calls to mobile and landlines keep dropping

    [Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "help"]
    When I phone a mobile or land line the phone rings and as soon as we connect the call drops. This is the only way I can call my grandson. Is there some one that I can talk to for help

    Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
    Did you check with your mobile internet provider if they are allowing Skype calls over their network? You can also rule that out by trying to call while your phone is connected via a stable wifi internet connection.

  • Is Skype 1 Month Mobile and Landline Subscription ...

    If I take out a Skype one month Landline and Mobile Subscription I get 60 minutes for £1.55p.  This equates to 2.6ppm if all 60 minutes are used.  Using fewer minutes means the cost per minute is greater.
    A PAYG call on the Three network to landlines and mobiles costs 3ppm, slightly more than the Skype cost but with the convenience of being able to use my phone to make the call and of not having to find a wifi point.  If I only use 40 minutes it costs £1.20 whereas 40 minutes with the Skype subscription would still be £1.55.
    I may be missing something but Skype does not seem good value for money.  Perhaps someone could point out the flaws in my thinking.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for responding.
    I have to admit that cost is very important to me and, there being virtually nothing about me that is unique or even out of the ordinary, it may also be important to some others.
    It would seem then that from the UK I must take your advice make my occasional calls using my mobile as the least expensive and most convenient method.  Indeed, this also applies to Germany where wifi is virtually inaccessible other than at airports and hotels, unavailable for instance at McDonalds without a German telephone number.
    Incidentally, Three - with whom I have no connection other than as a PAYG customer - offers mobile calling at UK rates from many European countries.
    Thank you again for your kind attention.

    Unlimited calls to mobiles and landlines in: PHILIPPINES
    Why Philippines is not on Premium?

    Hi,
    The main thing is that your plan covers calls to US. So if you are planning to call mainly or only to US, then you don't need the Unlimited World subscription, he Unlimited US will be enough.
    If you are planning to buy an Online Number, then receiving calls to your Online Number does not cost anything to you.

  • Calling mobiles and landlines - Cannot call for two days

    I pay unlimited monthly subcription call to Thailand, but I cannot call any number for two days.What wrong? Also I tried calling several uk mobile and landline numbers, but didn't work.

    I obviously want to use the mobiles subscription for mobiles only, but I need to call landlines as well. How would it work if I buy a limited subscription for landlines and one for both landlines and mobiles, would Skype select automatically the subscription or should I do it manually? And, if automatically, what would be Skype criteria, I read it would be "more minutes left", wouldn't it be the best rate instead?

  • Calling mobiles and landlines

    I've bought a monthly plan that includes 60 minutes to anywhere in North America. When I first got the plan, it worked great. But right now, I'm unable to make any calls or recieve them, and when I check it says that I have 45 minutes remaining for the month. Can anyone help with this?

    Have you downloaded and installed the Skype application on both devices? Skype calling is done through the application, not from a browser window.

  • Skype call to mobile is connected to mobile's voic...

    When I call my wife's AT&T Nokia 6350 from my Windows 7 PC, the call is connected to her voice mailbox instead of her phone's voice mail.  A call to my exact same model cell phone is connected to my phone's voice mail correctly.  The PC is running Skype 5.3.0.116.
    This anomaly only occurs when I dial from my PC, or FREETALK using Skype.  If I call her phone from our landline using FREETALK with the # prefix, to force a landline call, or if I call from our landline with FREETALK disconnected, or from my cell phone, then the call is correctly connected to her phone's voice mail. 
    These symptoms seem to point to some anomoly in the Skype dialing.  If the Skype experts believe that this may be an AT&T problem then please provide the exact dialing sequence, as that will probably be the first information that AT&T will ask for.
    Thanks.

    Your call logs show connection issues.

  • Skype calls to 0860 and 0861 numbers

    Good Day
    Skype calls to land line numbers starting with 0860 and 0861 cannot connect since 31-10-2014.  There was never a problem from January 2014 until 30 October 2014 to connect to these numbers.  I will appreciate your urgent assistance to this problem.
    Thank you.

    Hello
    It's not an error. You have an Unlimited World Subscription which covers calls to South African domestic landlines only. According to our records the numbers you are attempting to call aren't domestic landlines. To call them you require some Skype Credit. 
    Buy Skype credit

  • Skype calls keep dropping and Skype freezes?

    I have good internet and every **bleep** minute or so when im in a call with my friends, skype freezes (but not like "not responding", i can click buttons, they just don't do anything) and the call is dropped for like 40 seconds and then it fixes itself again. it does this very often and im getting tired of it. 
    i've re installed skype, re installed java, installed an older version of skype and NOTHING works!!! 
    It's not my internet because while skype is frozen, i can be playing a game flawlessly, or googling things, something is wrong with my skype. 
    also my computer is really good (custom built gaming pc) 
    Skype is really pissing me off!

    Same sort of thing is happening to me and has been happening for a while, except that it doesn't come back in 40 seconds. It's so annoying, and I'm convinced that skype is the biggest and most worthless piece of **bleep** program out there, I can't wait until there's a viable alternative. It will just stop mid call, as if the other person isn't talking, then it will become unresponsive. It's not like it's unresponsive and greyed out with Windows saying it can fix it, it just completely ignores everything. If I want to end the call, too bad. If I want to force quit the app, too bad. If I want to sign back on, too bad (it's already running). I have to restart my computer so many times throughout the day that it interferes with my work and I depend on Skype to connect my coworkers. It's so full of issues that I'm fed up. No updates or downgrades help me either, I've tried almost every one of the "good" ones. 

  • Making a call via iPhone to mobiles and landlines ...

    Hi I'll be traveling overseas this year and I would like to stay in touch back home here in the U.S.A. I have skype credit and I would be using the keypad on the app to call landlines and mobiles in the U.S.A while either on wifi or mifi, would this also include a charge from my carrier AT&T? Also what about calling other countries the same way?

    Hi,
    U need to have the BDI config in the jabber-config.xml file you upload to call manager number 1 and number 2 you also need a TCT device configured on the CUCM and assigned to that end user and have the end user associated with the TCT and CSF devices for device controll.
    You also need to create UC Services and have a UC Service Profile assigend to the end user to allow directory look up.
    Please see my jabber-config.xml template attached.
    I made use of EditiX is a cross-platform XML & XSL editor
