Subscribed to unlimited world premium (free offer)...

Hi,
i have today availed of the free trial one-month unlimited world premium subscription. paid it with my paypal account just so the process of availing the trial offer can be successfully completed. However, upon successful grant of the free subscription, i tried to use it but unfortunately i cant call landlines and mobile phones as the message is "You need Skype Credit or a subscription to call landlines and mobiles from skype".
what seems to be not right in this picture? please favor me with your prompt response asap.
thanks.

There are some restrictions to the types of numbers you can call or that are covered.  You may want to take a look at this thread:

  • Unlimited World Subscription free trial

    Hi, 
    From the Skype home page I clicked on "Prices" and then "Special Offers", after which I clicked the link to "Get your Free month" of the Skype unlimited World subsription trial. I followed all the steps, entered card details, agreed Terms of service. But now it doesn't seem I have a subscription? When I try to make a call to a landline, it tells me I need Skype Credit? 
    I didn't receive an email after doing this, and I don't see any "subsciptions" on my home page, but not sure if i just don't know where to look. 
    Please could someone help me out?
    Thank you.

    Hi kkraju4u,
    I checked your account and I can see that you are calling numbers in the UAE and in India which are countries that are not covered by your Unlimited World subscription.
    You can follow the steps below to view the countries included in your subscription:
    1. Sign in to your account:
    http://www.skype.com/go/myaccount
    2. On the left panel, click your subscription.
    3. Next to your subscription, click Settings. A summary of your subscription is displayed on the left. Click the destinations link to see what countries are covered.
    If the country you are calling is not covered by your subscription, you can purchase Skype Credit or another subscription that covers that specific country. You can go to the link below then type the country you want to call on the "Find country" search box and then decide what subscription you want to purchase:

    Hope this answers your concern.

  • Re: Unlimited World Subscription free trial

    I cannot use my subscription at all. I checked before getting it that the number in Costa Rica was reachable via this subscription. My account says I have TWO different subscriptions, but I am unable to use. The notice "You must have Skype credit or a subscription to make this call" always appears. I have paid for two! What is going on? This is very lousy customer service!!!
    I also tried actually reaching customer service, which is impossible! So I am here.

  • Skype credit & unlimited world calling

    Hi,
    I've subscribed for unlimited world calling free month and it was working great.
    However it seems my Skype credit have been charged for the same and my skype credit is null now. When u try to make call using unlimited world call I couldn't make a call as it says you don't have credit balance.
    I was in an impression to subscribe for this once my free month gets over, but since it makes me think that Skype credit is charged for the free call I have hesitation to make the subscription.
    Could you make me understand the below
    1. What's the difference between Skype credit and Skype subscription
    2. Say if I subscribe to UWC for $13.99 do I need to buy a Skype credit separately to make calls?
    Thank you in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    1.  Skype credit can be used to place calls to phone numbers reachable by the Skype network.
    Skype subscriptions can be used to place phone calls at no cost assuming the number being dialed is covered by the subscription and your usage of the subscription doesn't violate Skype's terms of use or fair usage policy.  If you dial a number not covered by the plan or exceed your allotted usage (if minute based), then credit will be consumed.   Additionally Skype subscriptions do not cover calls to premium, shared-cost or non geographic numbers.  Those will revert to credit if dialed.  Be aware that many unlimited plans do NOT include mobiles.  Dialing a mobile when you have a landline subscription will consume credit.
    2.  As long as you make calls covered by the subscription then no credit will be consumed nor is credit required.  You can have a subscription with a zero credit balance.  If you attempt to make a call that requires credit, you will not be able to place the call.  If you are unsure what is covered by your subscription you need to revisit the terms of your subscription or keep your balance at zero credit (Auto-recharged disabled) to not incur additional costs.
    This FAQ covers what is covered by that subscription.  Pay close attention to the landline and mobile part.  You can also refer to the Skype rates page and look at the pay as you go rates.  If an area code is listed as premium or shared cost for the country you are calling, it will not be covered by the subscription and it will request credit.

  • Cannot call with unlimited world subscription

    Hi
    I have subscribed to Unlimited world subscription and had recently paid the bill for the month.
    However, I cannot make a phonecall to Malaysia using the account. The phone keep showing the message insufficient credit. And prompted me to buy credits.
    My username is [Removed for privacy].
    This is urgent and I need to make important call. Why doesn't Skype have a customer service hotline?
    This is so frustrating.  
    Reply me at [Removed for privacy] once this is fixed.

    Hello,
    I can see that you have tried to call a mobile in Malaysia, this is not included in your Subscription, you can call only landlines.
