Skype number for Canada

I live in Ontario, Canada. I'm trying to set up a skype number for Canada, but it wont let me.
How do I get a number for my area code?

Hi, CanadianSkype, and welcome to the Community,
Unfortunately, Skype Numbers are not available in Canada.  I understand from Canadian Super User Neil and Moderator NormanM that this is due to a regulatory restriction.
Kind regards,
Elaine

    Hi, Davidann, and welcome to the Community!
    I arranged to transfer your post here to the Features: Skype Number message board as your enquiry is not related specifically to the BlackBerry Z10.  If you type the words "Skype Number for Canada" in the Search the Community search box appearing at the upper right corner of this website page, you will find a plethora of threads (topics) related to this issue.
    The short story is this is due to a regulatory issue in Canada.

  • Skype numbers for canada:

    Is there a reason I can't get a skype number for Canada? I have used skype for 3 years and would like to have a number for when I am in Asia.

    I have been waiting for years to get a Canadian number. They've been telling me it's in the work pretty much since it's launched. It's crazy that it's not available here. Now that Microsoft has taken over, hopefully they'll make it a priority to get that for us.
    Why have we really not gotten any access to this service yet?

    Hello,
    1. Legal requirements imposed by the CRTC prevent Canadian Skype Numbers being offered. This may assist:  http://community.skype.com/t5/Skype-Number/Canada-and-other-countries-Online-Number-alternative/m-p/...
    2. Participation in the Skype Number program requires local telecom carriers to guarantee a supply of available numbers. At present the Thai carriers are unable to meet that requirement.

  • One skype number for multiple users in Skype Manag...

    Is it possible to get one Skype-in phone number and assign it to multiple members in Skype Manager?
    If so, how do I go about it?
    I also asked this here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Skype-Number/One-skype-number-for-multiple-users-in-Skype-Manager/m-p/...

    You could always allocate a number to multiple business accounts in Skype Manager. Then re-direct the number via IP-PBX to go to different extensions.
    Try the following here [If you look in the advanced section of this manual, you'll see an example of two accounts using one number]

  • How can I pay for skype number for one year

    How can I pay for skype number for one year? 

    Hi, Orzo.Coffee, and welcome to the Community,
    I realize what I am about to write sounds a bit weird: to change the term of a Skype Number subscription, we need to permit it to expire, or in other words, reach the end of its term.  Your Skype Number will be held on account for you for 90 days following the expiration date, so you can sign in even on the same day you receive the e-mail stating your Skype Number subscription has expired, to reinstate the subscription and change the term.
    I had to ensure I had enough credit on account so my renewal would process successfully; if you plan to renew for a year and use credit for your payment method, remember to add enough credit to cover the cost of the annual subscription.  You could also change your payment method at the time you reinstate/renew your Skype Number subscription.
    Make sense?
    Kind regards,
    Elaine

  • Someone is faking my skype number for robocalls.

    In the last week, I am getting dozens of calls every hour because someone is faking my skype number for robocalls. So people *69 me to complain or leave angry voicemails. I tried contacting skype support to see if I could change my number, and after not hearing back, I cancelled my subscription, but they won't disconnect my skype number from my account until my subscription expires (in over a month!).
    This is incredibly frustrating. Is there any way to cancel a skype number immediately or change it?

    It maybe a little late to reply to this but have you ever logged on to iTunes using a friend's computer? if so they maybe using that to send messages if you didn't sign out... But my guess is you no longer have that problem since you changed your password?

    Hi,
    I am an administrator for our company Skype Manager account and have been allocated a Skype business account. I want to get a skype number for our company to allow external contacts to be able to call us via landlines and mobiles.
    What do I need to do to get a skype number and set it up so that any member of our team can  receive external calls on it and answer them ?

    Hi _onz,
    Something I did several years ago (before I had Muse) when my wife began her jewelry business was create a website in the traditional way (at that time using Fireworks and Dreamweaver), but rather than have people buying directly from her site, there was a link to her Etsy shop. She could personalize the Etsy shop as much as she wanted, add/subtract jewelry on the fly, etc.
    There are some good e-commerce solutions out there. One that looks promising is Shoplocket. You can check it out here at MuseThemes.
    To your point about a lack of quality tutorials, I somewhat agree. The ones Adobe provide, albeit free, are more hit and miss. I've had better luck at Lynda.com where they offer video courses on the various software. Of course, they're not free, but for $25/mo. I've gotten a lot of value from them.
    Good luck!
    - Bob

  • When will Skype number for Louisiana (318) be avai...

    I have tried unsuccessfully for two months to purchase a Skype number for area code 318 (Shreveport area).  Whenever I select Louisiana, there are no area codes listed.
    When will more numbers be available?
    Is there any way I can get a 318 number?

    Skype numbers are based on availability which can be due to contracts and whether a particular country authorizes Skype numbers to exist in their country.  If Skype is unable to obtain numbers in a particular country, I highly doubt there is much than can be done.

  • Skype Number for the Channel Islands

    I am new to Skype and am trying to get a Skype number but am unable to get one as I live in the Channel Islands, least it looks that way, is there anyway around this? I would like to use skype to contact my mum who lives in SA via Video maybe I do not need a number, sorry if all these statements seem rather random!

    Hi, telephony in the Channel Islands is complex. The Channel Islands are part of the British Isles but not part of the UK (Isle of Man is same too).
    These offshore islands still use the +44 UK internatinal prefix, but when phoning from the UK by either landline or mobile the calls are classified as international and a premium is applied. This charge is particularly hefty from mobile networks and can be as much as 70p/min (T-mobile). UK telecom providers no longer include calls to offshore islands in their UK inclusive call bundles, however Channel Island providers do include calls to the UK in their inclusive bundles.
    The good thing about Skype is that it doesn't differentiate between offshore islands and the UK, you get charged for the same +44 rate which currently stands at 1.7p/min to landlines and 5.8p/min mobiles on PAYG. The rates are even better in bundles.
    You have several choices, you can video chat with your mother in SA for free via Skype provided she's on Skype and is able to use a PC or mobile device. You could buy a UK Skype number for people to contact you on or you could buy a SA number on Skype so friends and family in SA could keep in touch with you at local call rates.
    If you buy a Skype subscription (bundle of calls) first, you then get a 50% discount on a Skype number purchase which is well worthwhile.
