Skype Number with a different Area Code

Good afternoon Ladies and Gents.
I'm from Brazil, and today I tried to create a Skype Number, because I work offshore, and on the Rig, it is not possible to call numbers with different area codes.
My question is:
I'm from Rio de Janeiro(Area Code 21), but I would need a number from Macaé (Macaé is a city of Rio de Janeiro state), and its code is 22, but I have no option to choose another area code, because 21 is only for Rio de Janeiro city, and I have to select Rio de Janeiro(state), but cannot select the area code. Is it possible to create a number with the Macaé area code (something like +55 22 4002-6663)?
Thank you, and I am waiting your comments.

Yes the Skype number is attached to your account no matter what calling subscription you have.
You can stop your UK subscrition and buy the European subscription, maybe even buy the Euro subscription before the UK one runs out if you can't wait.
Skype can recognise multiple subscriptions and charge the call accordingly.

HT3529 My iPhone wont let me send text message to numbers with different area code how do I fix this?

My iPhone wont let me send text messages to numbers with a different area code. How do I fix this so I can send texts to these numbers?

If it shows up in iTunes and you can sync the phone, could be that the docking port is damaged.
You should get it serviced or looked at by visiting an Apple Store or contacting Apple:

My story of transferring a different area code number during activation

When I got my iPhone, I wanted to port my current number (which was in a different area code from my billing address) to the iPhone. I got stuck on the second page of the activation with a "you cannot transfer this number" message.
I called the AT&T corporate store that I purchased the iPhone from and encountered the worst help in a person that basically said that he didn't know anything about that problem, there was no other person here (i.e. supervisor) and he really couldn't help me and doubted that anyone else could. When I said, "So, there isn't anything I can do at all whatsoever? Like there's no phone number at AT&T or Apple that I can call and get any help activating my iPhone?" He finally, like a light bulb went on, said "I suppose you could call the 800-My-iPhone number. The people at that AT&T corporate store must only hire the most brilliant people. I suppose it could have been his first day or for that matter his first call, but still....
I called 800-My-iPhone and the guy there couldn't figure out why it wasn't letting me activate, so he went off and made a little call to AT&T and came back and said that I have two options. 1) I could just activate with a new phone number and transfer my old phone number later (you have 30 days to transfer--the 30 days probably avoids a transfer fee, but that's a guess) or 2) I would have to put in a request to transfer my number and that might take up to six days. I decided to go ahead and just get a new number and deal with the transfer later. Once I got the iPhone activated and got the new phone number, I started the porting process.
When I called the AT&T Porting phone number to start the process, I got the nicest lady that pretty much told me "I wish they had sent you to us first. The reason you couldn't activate with this phone number is because your phone number is in a different area code from your billing address. When the activation process asked for your billing zipcode, you should have entered a zip code from the area where your old phone number's area code was and not your current billing zip code." According to her, that would have allowed the transfer to occur. I wish the 800-My-iPhone people knew this and yes I sent a "One-Way" unacknowledged feedback message into the Apple abyss.
So now the story goes that since I have activated my iPhone in a different area code, the SIM card is locked into that area code. I can still transfer my number, but AT&T has to send me a new SIM card with another temporary number in that area code. Then they have to get the iPhone activated with that SIM card and then they start the whole phone number transfer process.
If I understand this correctly, I will have had two temporary numbers and two SIM cards before the transfer process is over.
It's not over yet, so the story isn't done. I'll see in the next couple of days how the whole "transferring the old phone number" process unfolds.
I can't wait to see how iTunes handles the whole process. That's probably a whole different headache.

Well, you were right about looking for problems in the billing. Even though I had made sure they had closed down the extra account. The problem stems from how they advance bill for next month's service.
When they shutdown the first account (with the temp phone number) they never refunded the advanced payment for the next month, they just kind of forgot about that and didn't have any kind of entry for refunding that pre-paid service.
On the second account (with my current number), I paid for two months of service, but I was paying again on the same month I paid for in the first account. That extra month of service was about $75 of extra charges.
There were all sorts of charges on the first account (like a $175 charge for canceling my account early), which they turned right around and removed. All the extra charges and credits, just confused the issue for not only me, but the customer service agent as well. He kept saying that they had credited me for some $235 of billing and was using that to say that AT&T could not credit me any more.
Finally, I was able to show them that they had not only charged me twice for message service for November, but they also charged me twice for phone service in November too. I think it helped when the agent realized that I only had one phone and one line of service active.
The customer service agent was nice, but with all the other charges and credits, it took a while to get to the bottom of what charge was for what service and where the double billing took place.
Anyway, I did get it straightened out. Thanks for warning me about this. It was that little flag that helped me look for those extra charges. Thanks!

Keeping old AT&T number on IPhone despite different area code

Hi,
I've been trying to google this but haven't found anything conclusive. I've read about people from different carriers having issues with out of the area numbers but nothing about a current AT&T user (Blackjack I if helpful) buying a iphone but wants to keep his old out of state number. My old area code is 203 just to make it easier when explaining.
Are there any issues with this? Can I just use my mom's address that is in the 203 area code as my billing address and not have any problems?
Can I just put my old SIM card from my blackjack into my iphone and avoid all issues instead?

My original phone was a Verizon phone with a NH area code. I now live in FL and bought the iPhone here in FL. ATT had no problem porting my NH number to my new iPhone purchased in FL. You don't need to use someone else's address from the old area code.

661CALLER-My SKYPE# callerID changed twice to 661+7different digits, when calling my spouse. It said Palmdale area on his cell with the accompanying#. I asked where he was when I called, he was next to a particular store both times on separate days. I am not from California which is the area code 661 Palmdale area-so possibly a SKYPE friend calling you-unknowingly being assigned a different #, because of a different LOCATION on your part or possibly theirs. I was told they patch in #'s typically a California area code another ex. 559. He answered the calls even with the odd area code & answered in a hesitant voice, then told me it said Palmdale when I called-fyi-my location was consistent for a year laptop on kitchen table-he was traveling to costco store both times when happened-Call was normal just different caller ID both times.

Hi all,
I'm a bit confused about this article. I was working with a poster on a question which ultimately led me to this article (as he was using the Disk method described in this article to share one Mac's iPhoto library between he and his wife).
What I'm not getting about any of it is what sort of "multiple user" scenario is this referring to? Is it specifically referring to the User accounts on a specific Mac? So, signing off one user and then signing on another?
The reason I ask is because both my husband and I have Macs, and he is always signed on to his Mac, I'm always signed on to mine. We have a bit more complicated set up in terms of syncing, because our iTunes library is housed on his computer and our iPhoto library is housed on mine. But, bottom line, when I sync my iPhone or iPad to iTunes, I do it on his computer with him signed on (most of the time on both the computer and iTunes), and when I sync his iPhone photos to iPhoto, I do it on his my computer with me still signed on. We have both libraries shared completely, with the option to sync different parts of it to our different devices.
So, in a situation where you are not needing to sign off the "primary" user of a Mac in order to update or sync your devices, does the article even apply?
I just want to get it straight so I can help this poster out with the correct information.
Thanks,
GB

How to enter invoice with two different tax codes in one line?

Dear friends,
I have this PO for which I enter the invoice.
I recieve later a subsequent debit for this PO from the transporter. This subsequent invoice has got extra debits, one with 21% VAT and one with 19% VAT, which means two items with two different tax codes.
I want to enter this subsequent debit for each item of the PO, and I want to enter both debits in every item of the PO.
How can I enter in one row in MIRO a debit with two different tax codes.
Thank you.

I want in the same line item to enter two tax codes.
Do you Know if there is any way to do this?
It is a subsequent debit and it has two items with two different tax codes. I want to enter the subsequent debit for a PO with many items and enter the value of the whole subsequent invoice. So there is the need to enter one line item with two tax codes.
How can this be done?
Thank you?

Buying in a different area code

can i purchase an iphone in a different area code?
im only an hour from where i live but the area code is different, thanks

You can buy the iPhone anywhere. When you activate it, you will fill out all the information for area code and such on your computer.
I bought mine in NYC and activated it in NYC, but I live in SE Michigan. I was, however, already an ATT/Cingular customer.

UK Skype Number - no need for country code?

Hi
Just bought a UK Skype Number here in Oz.
Just double checking that for family in the UK, they just need to enter the 11 digit Skype number, not the UK country code as well- because it is an online number (eg. 0113 not +44 113 etc)??
Dont want to send the number out there incorrectly or give them uneccessarily long number to dial!
Thank you.

Did you hear back on this - same question here...

Synergy bug: incorrectly interprets same phone number with different area codes as one number

I sync with Google. I have a contact that has two numbers for which the exchange and the number are the same, but the area codes are different, e.g., (517) 123-4567 and (773) 123-4567. On the Pre, the page for that contact will only show one of those numbers.
If I touch Edit, both numbers are in there. Of course, that doesn't help, because you can't dial from the Edit page.
Sprint tech support was unable to resolve it, and I tried to contact Palm Support via chat, but the LogMeIn Rescue module required for the chat wouldn't download for me either in IE or Firefox. Any idea how to get this resolved?
Thanks!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I had unbelieveable problems with the synergy feature trying to synch my contacts from Google. Palm (or I guess HP now) won't admit it publically, but the synergy feature acts in ways they have no clue of how to resolve.
I suggested to them that they should have an Synergy On/Synergy Off choice for the users. They said they had no plans to do that.
I switched to a DROID2 Smartphone from Motorola, and now everything is working perfectly!!
Love the new phone.

Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.
