Subscriptions and Skype accessories

I´ve been trying to find the answer to this question for almost two hours, maybe is simple but I couldn´t find it.
Right now I have a subscription to call to my country (unlimited minutes) but I´m tired to use the computer. Because of that, I decided to buy vonage and it has been working fine so far, however, I just found the ready skype phones in the accessories section of this page.
My question is:
If I continue with my subscription and I buy one of this phones, is it possible to call using this phone to my country under my subscription? What I read is that it is possible to make free skype to skype calls and low rates to landlines with these phones, but again, if I have a subscription to my country, this calls to my country will be covered by my subscription?
Thanks

i just have one quick questions how 2 u add another acct 2 skype 2 my original one

Active Subscription and Skype Number but unable to...

I had a an active subscription and Skype number since September 2012, but I am unable to receive calls. The reason I purchased any this is so that I could receive calls that have forwarded to my cell phone.
I have call forwarding activated. Before when I was just buying Skype credit monthly it forwarded perfectly.

Having same issue what to do now? Is anybody there to solve this problem.
Cant make calls but monet is taken from my bank account.order is also delivered. Plz help what to do

Simultaneous subscription and Skype credit

I use Skype extensively for business calls within the U.S. and also internationally during frequent trips abroad. I don't use international calling consistently enough to justify an international subscription but an unlimited subscription for U.S. calls would make sense. Can I have an unlimited U.S. subscription that automatically revert to using Skype credit when I try to call home from overseas?

Dear Skype employees,
I joined the Skype Community because that was the only way to contact you. on August 26th I subscribe for Russia 120 min And on September 26th I renewed the subscription For $5.49. After that I cancelled my Russia 120 min subscriptAfter I did not make any called after I renewed it. On my account says that I can continue to make calls until it expires on October 29th, 2013. However, when I am trying to make a call the system does not allow it to me, says that I don't have enough Skype Credit to call thi number.
I expect Skype either return money I paid for a subscription or restore Russia 120 min for mother month that I paiD and didn't use.

Subscriptions and Skype credit

Hi Skype I am pondering on whether to buy a one year unlimited world subscription however I also have skype pay as you go credit right now how will it work ? How does it work and what will get deducted , is it possible to transfer my balance to subscription then pay u the rest of the balance?

I am about to relocate and will be calling both landlines and mobiles in Australia, so this issue also seems to affect me.
I want to buy the "unlimited landlines Australia" or "Unlimited World" subscriptions, plus the 400 minutes "mobiles & landlines Australia" subscription so I hope that in the year since your enquiry, Skype got smarter.

Skype Unlimited World Subscription and Call Forwar...

Please help!

I have skype unlimited subscription but when I call it says Skype credit is require. Then what is use of free unlimited subscription and I can not access tools easily its very difficult to find help tools help me to make free calls

Re: Skype Number, subscriptions and forwarding whe...

I have a similar question to Fabrizio. I am setting up a small business. I primarily live in Australia but will be travelling a bit.
My understanding is that if I have a Skype number (which appears more professional and as if I have a land line), the caller will not be charged and that those charges will be charged to me.
Am I better to have a subscription and is there any difference in the call charges that are charged?
Also, if I understand correctly, if I travel to, say, Italy, often, I would get a Skype number for Italy. Both the Australian and the Italian Skype numbers would have country prefixes - is that correct?

Hi all,
I have a few questions relating to the Skype Number, which I recently bought.
The main purpose for me using the Skype number is to receive business calls and have them forwarded to my mobile. I have a small business, and want to appear as if I had a landline number.
Here are my queries:
1) Can I have call forwarding on at all times, even if I am logged in to Skype?
2) Does it cost to forward calls to my mobile?
3) If so, is there a specific plan I can get to pay a flat rate?
Cheers,
Fabrizio
1) Can I have call forwarding on at all times, even if I am logged in to Skype?
- If you have set-up call forwarding in Skype, call forwarding status will be set when you're offline in Skype. Calls can also be forwarded when you're online if the call was not answered after a number of rings.
2) Does it cost to forward calls to my mobile?
- If you use Skype Credit as a payment method, the forwarded calls will be charged at the Skype’s great pay per minute rates. For example, if you forward your incoming Skype calls to a mobile number in the United States, you’ll be charged exactly what it costs to call a mobile in the United States from Skype.
3) If so, is there a specific plan I can get to pay a flat rate?
- You can also purchase a subscription for calls to a country where you want to receive the forwarded calls. For example, if you want your incoming Skype calls to be forwarded to a number in the United States, simply choose a subscription covering calls to the United States.
No matter which payment method you prefer, the person who’s calling you on Skype will still call you for free.
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.

Cannot change payment method on subscription and C...

I am posting the transcript for the 45 minute chat I just suffered through. I simply needed to change my credit card as the old card had been replaced due to a security breach. Others on forums have complained about this issue but this is a stellar example of Skype's poor business and customer service practices. You are now chatting with 'Laarni M'. Laarni M: Hello! Welcome to Skype Live Support! My name is Laarni. Laarni M: If incase we got disconnected, simply click on the Chat Support Link and you will be reconnected to us in no time. Laarni M: https://support.skype.com/support_selection. Laarni M: With that being said, how may I help you? [Removed for privacy]: I need to update my credit card information because the credit card I have on file is expired. The update payment page does not give me the option to enter a new credit card. I started to delete my old card so I could add a new one, but I got an error message saying I must cancel my subscription before removing my credit card. Laarni M: Oh! [Removed for privacy]: I have a subscription already. [Removed for privacy]: I have had it for years. Laarni M: I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with updating your credit card. Laarni M: I will be glad to help you with this. Laarni M: To start with, can I have your Skype name and your name so that I can address you properly? [Removed for privacy]: I have already entered that information to begin this chat. It is required. Laarni M: I understand. [Removed for privacy]: the Skype name is [Removed for privacy] and my first name is [Removed for privacy] Laarni M: I just need to verify it. Laarni M: Thank you, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: Nice to meet you. Laarni M: Let me just pull up your account. Laarni M: Anyway how's your day so far? [Removed for privacy]: OK, I have found it. Apparently I am forced to buy Skype credit in order to change my payment to a new method? This is ridicuous. Laarni M: I am now pulling up your account, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: Thank you for waiting. Laarni M: Yes, that is correct. In order to change your payment method you need to either wait for your subscription to expire so you can purchase using the new card or you can buy Skype Credit. [Removed for privacy]: Now that I have bought 10.00 of skype credit and added the new payment information that way, it is appearing in my payment settings and I can delete the old card. But again, this is the only way to add a new payment method, which is very wrong. Laarni M: I am sorry if you feel this way, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: Oh, just lovely. I just tried to delete the old card and I have the same error message that "this card is being used to fund your Unlimited US and Canada 12 months. If you want to delete this card you have to cancel your subscription first." Is this some kind of nasty way of forcing me to lose my unlimited subscription? Laarni M: I see. Laarni M: Because the best way to add a new payment details is for you to let the subscription linked to the credit card expire first. Laarni M: After that, you can reactivate your subscrption using the new credit card. Laarni M: That is the best thing that I can recommend, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: I went into change payment settings and changed the payment method to the new card. The page saved and said it had changed the setting. But then I went back in and it had not. It still defaults to the old card. I still get the "cancel subscription" message when I tried to delete the old card again. Laarni M: Yes, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: I can't let it expire or it won't pay for my subscription in August. Anyway the card will not expire. It was replaced due to a security breach at the issuing bank. Laarni M: Because you really need to let your subscription expire first by cancelling it before you update your card. Laarni M: I see. [Removed for privacy]: Why would I want to do that when I probably won't be able to get the same plan? I have had that unlimited plan for years. [Removed for privacy]: I am certainly not cancelling that plan. Laarni M: I understand, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: This is really insane, you know. One should easily be able to update payment information when a card needs to be changed. [Removed for privacy]: I had this same problem last year, but there was a workaround. If you do not know what the current workaround is then please transfer me to a supervisor who does.l Laarni M: I understand, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: I doubt that you do understand. Since the forums indicate this is an ongoing problem, I am forced to assume this situation is intentional and is a way of forcing people to give up older and less expensive plans, and that you are fully aware of that. Laarni M: I am sorry but as much as I want to help you, we can't do anything but to let the subscription expire first by cancelling it before you update the credit card. [Removed for privacy]: I need to speak to a supervisor, please. Laarni M: I am sorry but as of the moment, my supervisor is engaged to a different activity. [Removed for privacy]: I am sorry but that is not the case. That is just what you have been told to say. I can continue to open new chats and waste representative's time for hours, or you can arrange for me to communicate with a supervisor. Laarni M: I am sorry for the inconvenience caused you. info: Your chat transcript will be sent to [Mod edit: Please do not include personal/private information when making a public post. Thanks!] at the end of your chat. Laarni M: I understand that it is really important for you ad upon further checking, we can try this step that may work for you. Laarni M: Do you have another browser aside from the one that you are using right now? [Removed for privacy]: Yes, I do Laarni M: Great! Laarni M: Internet Explorer would be the best. Laarni M: Can you please open it and go the link that I will provide to you? [Removed for privacy]: It is already open, please send the link Laarni M: Alright. [Removed for privacy]: I still do not have the link. Laarni M: Once you click on the link, and click Skype credit, please do not forget to click the change payment method when you buy Skype credit. [Removed for privacy]: I still do not have the link Laarni M: I am sorry for the delay, I am just having a system error as of the moment. Laarni M: But on your end, you can go to the page where you can buy Skype credit. Laarni M: By the way, there are 2 cards saved on your account. Laarni M: May I know the last 4 digit of the card that you want to use? [Removed for privacy]: 1591. And yes, I already explained to you that I bought Skype credit (which I do not need as I have a subscription!!) just to add the new credit card. Laarni M: I see. Laarni M: I can delete first the old credit card saved on our system. [Removed for privacy]: Please do that, but do NOT delete or cancel my subscription when you do this. Laarni M: Alright, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: Thank you for patiently waiting, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: I hope that what you are doing is successful. Laarni M: Please hang on, [Removed for privacy] as we are still doing some workaround for this. Laarni M: We are also getting an error doing this. [Removed for privacy]: That is not confidence-inspiring. Laarni M: I am sorry if you feel this way. [Removed for privacy]: I imagine that anyone would feel that way. Laarni M: Thank you for waiting, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: Here's what we can do to help you now, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: We really need to cancel your subscription so it will cancel the recurring payment. Laarni M: This does not mean that the subscrition will be cancelled. Laarni M: You can still use your subscription until the end of the billing period. Laarni M: So once we cancel your subscription now, you can try to go to the payment settings and update your credit details. Laarni M: Is everything okay? Haven't heard from you in a while. [Removed for privacy]: I am sure that you realize this is unacceptable. I am very surprised that you would suggest this as a solution. As I stated above, I am well aware that this is a method Skype is using to force people to give up better subscriptions. I will not be forced to accept a suboptimal subscription by this method. I am also aware that a supervisor can correct this problem in the system by hand. Please put me in communication with a supervisor. Also--I have ALREADY updated my credit details as I explained above. You or a supervisor simply need to change the subscription payment method to the new card that is already on file. Laarni M: I understand where you are coming from, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: But I am trying to help you with giving the best solution for this. [Removed for privacy]: We are going in circles. I have been on this chat for 45 minutes trying to get a simple payment method change that with any other company, I could do by myself online in two minutes. You are not offering me any kind of solution at all. You are insulting my intelligence by claiming that the payment method cannot be replaced. Laarni M: I am sorry if you feel this way, [Removed for privacy]. [Removed for privacy]: Please stop this. The system is clearly set up to block a payment change. A supervisor can override this and that is what I expect you to arrange. Laarni M: But as of the moment, there is no available supervisor. [Removed for privacy]: Please do not tell me things that are not true. [Removed for privacy]: Please connect me with a supervisor. Laarni M: And If I will transfer you to my supervisor, he will give the same information that I provided to you. Laarni M: This is because it is the only workaround for this, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: You do not need to worry, cancelling your subscription is just cancelling the recurring payment or auto renewal. [Removed for privacy]: He may, but if he does, he will also be stating something that is not true. It is always possible for a supervisor or manager to make changes in the system. Laarni M: You can still use your subscription until the end of the billing period. [Removed for privacy]: I'm sorry, but in August when the billing period ends, I will receive notification that my subscription has cancelled due to non-payment and that I must choose a new plan. That is what I do not want. Therefore your solution is unacceptable. I have stated this clearly. Laarni M: I am sorry [Removed for privacy], I really want to help you but this is only the work around or soultion that we can do. [Removed for privacy]: Then apparently after 8 years, I will be searching for new phone service. I am very sorry that this is the case. Laarni M: If the auto renewal will cancel, you can still reactivate your subscrition and that time, the new payment method will be use for that subscription. [Removed for privacy]: Do I have your word that I will be allowed to keep the same plan with no changes to my subscription? Laarni M: Yes, [Removed for privacy]. You can still reactivate the same subscription. Laarni M: You do not need to wory about this. [Removed for privacy]: If that is not the case I will be cancelling. And Skype needs to change its payment method practices. This is very poor customer service. I will be going on every forum I can find and posting a poor review of the service. This is a shame since I have been a loyal Skype customer for more than 8 years. I was a customer when Skype was the only internet phone company in business. info: Your chat transcript will be sent to [Mod edit: Please do not include personal/private information when making a public post. Thanks!] at the end of your chat. Laarni M: I am sorry if you feel this way, [Removed for privacy]. Laarni M: Thnak you for being loyal with Skype.

Well, it happened again. This time I'm done with Skype. A ten-year customer, and they've finally worn me down and worn me out. Yes, after 30 minutes of constant escalation, requesting a supervisor, and finally threatening to walk, they offered another annual contract at 6 cents more a year. But at the cost of making me sign up all over again, and after wasting my time both last year and this year. And I am DONE. I will use my remaining Skype credit for the few online teaching video conferences I have to do, but no more subscriptions. Bye, Skype. I would provide adjectives for how horrible your customer service is, but they would all be profane.

Thank you for patiently waiting
Gian C: at 19:06:07
Is this for the Unlimited Us and Canada?
Customer: at 19:06:13
yes
Gian C: at 19:07:12

Gian C: at 19:07:49
Look for Unlimites Us and Canada
Customer: at 19:07:58
why?
Gian C: at 19:08:21
Just want to make sure if repurchasing the subscription would be avaialble
Customer: at 19:08:36
I was told last year that it would be available. And two nights ago.
Gian C: at 19:08:36
That is the best work around to get the subscription back using the new card details
Gian C: at 19:08:45
I understand
Gian C: at 19:08:53
Can you please go and check it first
Customer: at 19:08:59
No, thank you. Please just apply my card. This is what happened last year.
Gian C: at 19:09:02
So I can assure the resolutiong
Customer: at 19:09:34
The subscription shows that it expires today. It is on my account. Simply renew it with the card information that is also on my account.
Gian C: at 19:09:40
Can you help me on this to solve your issue please?
Gian C: at 19:09:53
I understand
Customer: at 19:10:02
You have directed me to your sales site to search for the plan I already have all over again. I have no time for this.
Gian C: at 19:10:06
However the time you change the card did not worked on the system
Gian C: at 19:10:15
That is why the renewal did not push trough
Customer: at 19:10:41
It didn't work last year either because the system is a mess. But a rep fixed it last year. If you cannot do this please pass me to a supervisor.
Gian C: at 19:10:59
ok.
Gian C: at 19:11:19
Before we do that, can you please try to check if the subscription is available first.
Customer: at 19:11:40
I do not understand how you expect ME to check if a subscription is available!
Customer: at 19:12:04
The subscription is ON MY ACCOUNT AND SAYS IT NEEDS TO BE RENEWED.
Gian C: at 19:12:09
Basically it is simple
Gian C: at 19:12:10
Go to this website
Gian C: at 19:12:10
https://www.skype.com/en/rates/?nu=subs-calling
Gian C: at 19:12:10
Click on U.S.
Customer: at 19:12:16
Please pass me to a supervisor.
Gian C: at 19:12:20
Then check if US and Canada is part of the list
Gian C: at 19:12:39
Before I pass you to our supervisor
Gian C: at 19:12:47
Let me give you a heads up on your case
Customer: at 19:12:57
it is there for $2.99 per month. I have a locked in annual charge for that subscription for $29.99. Not $36.00.
Gian C: at 19:13:11
I see
Gian C: at 19:13:28
Thanks for the information
Gian C: at 19:13:38
When did you change your card detail? For this subscription?
Customer: at 19:15:08
Last year. At which time the system refused to remove the earlier invalid card and charge the 2nd (correct) one. This year the system allowed me to remove the old card. The rep 2 days ago told me the card was fine. When I looked at the detail this evening, the expiration date was missing, so I filled it in. The rep said NOTHING about this two days ago. Frankly I think Skype is trying to sabotage my re-order to try to force me off of my annual plan and onto a monthly. I will not do it.
Gian C: at 19:15:13
Thanks
Gian C: at 19:15:48
Just to make sure we will be solving this issue, can you please provide me your call back number
Customer: at 19:15:59
You do not need to call me.
Gian C: at 19:16:07
Just incase this chat got disconnected so our supervisor can call you

Gian C: at 19:16:25
Let me get you our supervisor as you have requested
Gian C: at 19:16:29
Thank you
Customer: at 19:25:17
?hello
Gian C: at 19:27:42
I will get back to you once the Supervisor is ready to take this chat. For a moment
Gian C: at 19:27:50
Sorry to keep you waiting
Gian C: at 19:28:08
Our Supervisor is still engaged with the call
Gian C: at 19:28:10
Anyway
Gian C: at 19:28:20
Here is what we have found out on the subscription
Gian C: at 19:28:41
The renewal has passed already, so we can't renew it manually other than repurchasing the subscription
Gian C: at 19:28:54
Checking the price of the subscription
Customer: at 19:28:59
It has not passed yet. it expires 5/7. Today is 5/6.
Gian C: at 19:29:12
Let me give you a heads up
Gian C: at 19:29:39
Auto-renewal only happens once. And that is 3 days before the subscription expire
Customer: at 19:30:09
I give up. This is done. No subscription. Of any type. And I have been a Skype customer for over 10 years. Goodbye.
Gian C: at 19:30:23
I am sorry if you feel that way
Gian C: at 19:30:34
I am explaining to you all the things you need to know
Gian C: at 19:31:27
But you refused to listen nor cooperate. As much as I wanted you to get your subscription back. However it is within your call if you want to follow my advised to get this resolved quickly
Gian C: at 19:31:47
The new subscription prices is just 30.50USD for 1 year
Gian C: at 19:32:12
It is just few cents higer compare to the old price $29.99
Gian C: at 19:32:37
I hope that won't be a problem for you to get the 12 months subscription for the Unlimited US and Canada.
Customer: at 19:32:51
This is flatly ridiculous. The rep 2 days ago told me this was taken care of. Now you tell me it is not, keep me on chat for 30 minutes, make me look up subscription prices on your OWN website, and then tell me my subscription has expired when it has not. Yet I am the one being called uncooperative.
Gian C: at 19:33:02
If the auto renewal failed because of card used
Customer: at 19:33:05
That is a problem. I will not resubscribe. I don't care that it is only 6 cents a year more.
Gian C: at 19:33:21
Then Repurchasing the same subscription will be best to get it back
Customer: at 19:33:30
That is not why. If Skype did not have the information required I should have received an early email. I got SEVEN EMAILS IN ONE DAY INSTEAD.
Customer: at 19:33:42
The 7th one said the subscription was cancelled.
Gian C: at 19:34:05
That is the notification sent by Skype to tell you that we are still trying to accept the payment
Customer: at 19:34:30
It makes no sense to notify a customer every two hours on a SINGLE day, but not before.
Gian C: at 19:34:33
6 times the sytem try to renew the subscription
Customer: at 19:34:43
Yes. ON the same day. None on any other day.
Gian C: at 19:35:01
If only there is no problem with your card then the subscription should renew without a problem
Customer: at 19:35:10
You expect people who are at work to sign in from their work PC for personal business and renew within 8 hours. Ridiculous.
Gian C: at 19:35:08
Yes correct
Customer: at 19:35:12
I am done.
Gian C: at 19:35:10
As I said
Gian C: at 19:35:30
3 days before the subscription expire is the only day to renew the subscription automatically
Gian C: at 19:35:32
That is how the system works
Customer: at 19:35:34
As I said, the rep 2 days ago told me the card was fine but would take 24 hours for teh change to apply to the syste.
Gian C: at 19:35:37
It is part of the terms of use
Customer: at 19:35:43
Read what I said.
Gian C: at 19:36:01
Yes I already documented this case and I already escalated those previous representative
Gian C: at 19:36:08
For providing you false information
Customer: at 19:36:12
The terms of use don't say you bombard people with emails every 2 hours on a single day.
Customer: at 19:36:44
And then cut them off at the end of the day. When their subscription has not even expired yet. And then tell them it's their own fault their card didn't work. When they were told it was fine.
Gian C: at 19:36:50
The email notification is our way to make sure customer will be notified that they need to renew the subscription to avoid this kind of issue

Then why not send it once a day for six days instead?
Customer: at 19:37:13

Here is the thing Kim the system works that way for 10 years already

And only few customers are having this kind of issue, common issue was cause by problem with the card associated to the subscription.

Can i purchase more than one subscription and use ...

Hi,
I have bought a 60min/month subscription and realised that it is too little. I finish 60 minutes before the month is up and have nothing left. I am paying for it in 3-month cycles.
Can i buy another same subscription on top of this one so that i get a total of 120 mins a month?
When i try to do that, it says the new subscription will only activate after the current billing cycle is over. Does that mean that the new subscription will only start after 3 months is over? Then what is the point of getting multiple subscriptions if you need them immediately?
Please let me know how i can add more minutes apart from buying Skype credit.
thank you,
tabitha

Hi Tabitha,
If you want to have more minutes per month available, you need to buy a subscription with a different amount of minutes.
If you purchase the same amount of minutes, you will just extend your subscription for another months.
Here are your options: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/prices/pay-monthly/#SG
I hope it helps!

I've made a subscription and I still can't call to...

Hello.
I've made a 60 m subscription to Netherlands, to telephones and mobiles. The payment was confirmed and I received the message on skype that the order was delivered. I can see the subscription on my personal page in the subscriptions but when I try to make a call it don't allows me and show me the message that I need to charge my account or make a subscription to Netherlands. (When I already have).
I need very much to be able to make this calls in the next days. I have paid again a subscription and the same problem continues.
And a few days ago I received a "gift" of 20 m world calls and I can't even use that too.
And the link of the page for contact skype support is not working.
Anybody can help?

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
Your account shows that you have already used up your full 60 minutes entitlement for your current billing cycle. Your next cycle starts on May 10th 2015 when your next 60 minutes allocation will be added to your account.
To continue calling until then please Buy Skype credit

Not given credit for subscription with skype to go...

hi, my skype to go number had expired,by mistake,I renewed,buying only 120 minutes to call the country of my subscription,I let that expired,and bought the unlimited minutes to that same country,which is supposed to have the skype to go number...that was never reactivated by Skype,and now they are telling me I need to pay again!! ???I have record of the payment which I showed to a person on the chat,and still cannot get the number reactivated...help PLEASE!!!!!

Hello,
I believe there's a small misunderstanding around Skype To Go versus subscription, but I'll gladly explain these.
Skype To Go is a number that you can call from a regular phone and Skype connects the call to your contact's phone using either Skype Credit or a subscription as payment method.
Here's a quick sketch that should explain how call is connected to your contact.
If you already have a subscription then once you set up Skype To Go you can use this subscription to cover calls to your friend. If your subscription covers your contact number then all you need to do is set up Skype To Go number
You can set up Skype To Go as shown here: http://www.skype.com/go/togo.setup

Some questions about Skype Manager and Skype Conne...

Hallo,
I found one of your post:
That, if I have some questions I may contact with Contact our solutions team
Sadly that link wont work...
I have few questions and also I contacted with Microsoft support, but sadly they wasn’t able to help me. Only what they suggests, that I may contact with Skype Team trough to Forum, or Facebook...
So, I choose first one and maybe you can help me, or redirect my question !?
About my questions:
As I understand Skype for business is just name what contain two free software, like Skype manager and Skype connect. Also those are free, without charge ?
Also I read that there are two different accounts, like Premium and regular one. Premium contains some benefit. So, If I use that Skype for business manager system to I may or can add some premium accounts for some my staff and leave others with regular account ? I don’t have that manager systems installed jet, but what I read, I understand that I maybe just split credit - or is there way how I may also share regular and premium conots ?
Also, Right now my customers have 25 workers, but what - if soon my another customer also want to use Skype Service, and he have 50 - 100 workers ? Will be there special price for different amount of users on one firm ?
And at last, firm who I represent right now are using Elion VoiP (Elion, is Estonian ISP) service, trough to xLite program.
Sadly that one wont work properly, it will hack, or you cant hear other people and so on. With, Skype everything works fine. So, if he will starting to use Skype manger and will make account for every workers (sips) can he bound those sips with same VoiP numbers what he will use right now with Elion ? Or if not, is there some way how to redirect those numbers (to lose those numbers, is sadly out of question) ?
I hope, you can help me guy´s.
Best regards
Rainer

Tere Rainer,
indeed we don't have the solutions team offer any longer. Let me try to answer some of your questions here.
Skype Manager and Skype Connect itself are free of charge. But obviously you can purchase and distribute paid products via Skype Manager.
Yes, you can freely distribute Premium subscription to Manager group members and leave others without. You can do the same with all kind of Skype products, e.g. Skype numbers, calling subscriptions etc.
There are no discounts with Skype Manager purchases. It's a tool to simplify administration.
Unfortunately you cannot transfer numbers to Skype connect. For more details on which features are supported and how they work please have a look here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10549/what-is-skype-connect-and-how-does-it-work
I hope my answers could help a bit already.

How can I cancel a duplicated subscription and get...

Somehow I seem to have duplicated subscription for the same service. How can I cancel the duplicate and get a refund

Hi, Fell_Walker,
You should be able to see the duplicate subscription in your account dashboard, where we sign on to the Skype website to manage payment methods and so on. There, you can cancel the duplicate subscription and then request a refund by contacting Skype Customer Service.
Please do not be discouraged if you can not reach Skype Customer Service on yoru first attempt. Skype is aware of continuing website problems. If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented. Temporarily enabling scripts and pop-up windows may help get you through more quickly.
Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.
Regards,
Elaine

Re: Have subscription, but Skype says I have to ad...

xxxxxxxxxxxx I have paid for a year subscription and when I go to make a call its acts like I need to add credits, I have double checked and it shows where I paid for it with my order number and it show where it was suposed to have been added to my account with a status delivered.

Hello
Always start your own topic please rather than infiltrate someone else's No two issues are ever the same (too many variables).
In your case your account shows that you have an active 100 minutes monthly plan and that you have already used up your allocation for this current period. Your next additional minutes will be added on July 15th 2014. Until then you can call using Skype Credit.
Buy Skype credit

Can I assign subscriptions with Skype Manager?

My company wants to implement Skype for cost reducing, but there is an important issue I couldn't find the answer for: can I assign subscriptions with Skype Manager? For example, I buy a 400-minutes subscription and assign this subscription for an user?
If that is the case, can I take the subscription back from the user and give to someone else, or must I cancel it and buy a new one? And also, if an user is going to make 800 minutes in phone calls, in a land where there isn't a unlimited package, can I buy and assign him two 400 minutes subscriptions, or in fact as many subscriptions as I would like?
The best solution for me would be to have subscriptions that I can assign to users when they need it, and if in a month they are going to use less minutes, I can take that subscription and give it to another user.
Alternatively, I could have an account that many users would use, but at the same time and they would make calls at the same moment, and I don't know if Skype allows us to do this, both in computational terms as also in legal terms.
Does anyone knows the answers to my questions or could give me a suggestion?
Thank you for you time

Assigning subscriptions with S.M. is very easy but unfortunately some countries are missing on the list. For example I need to assign a subscription for one of my users registered in SM, which allow make calls to cell phones to Ukraine at lower rates. It's not possible because there is no Ukraine on the drop down list. Could someone explain me why?
