Subscriptions are minute based !! 2secounds call =...

I want to ask why Subscription based calls are minute based !
If i buy 200 minute i have to use 200 minute !!
For example if i used 10 secounds mine subscription have to be like 199minutes 50secounds !!
But in real it is not like that . Skype counting 1 minute !!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Where do I look for this "I've already paid now let me talk on the phone with my mother" icon??

Hi Richard,
You mentioned that 'Apple put the AirPrint spec out there for all printer makers'. I've been looking around but I haven't found any spec. Where did you find it?
Do printer makers have to buy a license in order to be able to advertise that they've implemented the AirPrint protocol? Is there maybe an Apple review process in place?
TIA

Subscriptions are not flexible

Hello,
On January 21st I created a subscription for 400 minutes/month landline calls.
Paid via PayPal, without automatic repayments.
The 400 minutes run out on February 13, so I tried to refill but there was not a way to do this, I had to wait until the end of the month (i.e. February 21st).
I can't change anything in the subscription.
I tried to create a new one but I got the message "If you continue to buy Greece 400 mins to landlines then you will be buying a calling subscription that overlaps with your previously purchased subscription.". No, I don't need a second subsciption.
OK, I make patience and wait till the end of the month, but yesterday (February 18th) I got the message that Skype tried to get paid by PayPal for the next month and "the payment was refused". So the subscription is not renewed with new minutes, and it won't be ever.
The status message reads "Your Greece 400 mins to landlines subscription will expire in 1 day as your payment has failed. Please change your payment method to retain your services."
I tried to see if there is a way to pay manually via PayPal, but there not a way to do this.
It seems that I have to cancel my subscription, read the "We are sorry that you did this, dear customer" and feel stressed, and subsequently make a new one, stressed once again by the message "...you will be buying a calling subscription that overlaps with your previously purchased subscription".
This is funny. Skype tries to make with me a "long lasting contract" but can't provide me with elementary things: I run out of talking time before the end of the month. What do I do?
Actually what I want is to buy some minutes talking time (let's say 400) to spend them as I wish. When run out, make a new payment, have another 400 minutes. Is this so difficult to have?

Hey ,
I dont have answer for your problem. But even i have the same problem. I hav also got 800 min for India calling. i have started on 1 st July but unfortunatly it got ove ron 26 th july itself. so i have to wait till 1 st Aug fot it to get renewed. I tried doing it ..but it had shown me d same error. I am so stressed with this. If you get answer to this please post it. I wana renew my account before it gets expired not on the last day only.

Minutes-based iPhone plans?

I am a U.S.A. resident with no plans of travel abroad. I currently own a simple pay-as-you-go, minutes-based cellphone (Tracfone). Tracfone is a low-cost service. You can purchase varying amounts of minutes for the phone, and it usually comes out to about $22 for 90 days.
I live in a very hilly rural area where cellular coverage is spotty at best and I am very mobile in these hills. As a result, I've come to find cellular service to be unreliable and not worth more than a cheap minutes-based service.
Verizon Wireless dominates most of the area in these hills with their tower-coverage.
Because cellular service is unreliable here, I have very little experience with uber-mobile networking culture. I occasionally receive useful text messages but I never send any. (My Tracfone only has a simple phone keypad, so I never tried to send a message with it.) I only occasionally use my cellphone for voice-calls; some calls for business, some for personal conversation. I tried setting up a voice-mailbox with Google Voice so I could check my voice-mail through a web-browser, but Tracfone and Google Voice don't work together well.
I also own an old, first-generation iPod, which is getting worn out.
I was thinking about getting an iPhone, and wondered if there was a plan available that would allow for a cheap, minutes-based service so I could replace my Tracfone and my iPod at the same time. Does such a plan exist?
MY CURRENT CELLPHONE:
Tracfone Motorola C139 or similar open-face model (minutes-based, pay-as-you-go)
MY CURRENT CELLULAR USAGE:
Personal: send/receive some voice calls, rarely receive text messages
Business: send/recieve voice calls
BUSINESS LANDLINE:
Verizon voice-phone and internet DSL connection
MY COMPUTER HARDWARE
late-2012 iMac, Airport WiFi connected to DSL (share w/ another person's laptop)
THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO DO WITH A NEW IPHONE:
send/receive voice calls occasionally
send/receive text messages
connect text messages to my e-mail address
tie my cellular voice-mail to an internet-based service like Google Voice, so I can check voice-mail via a web-browser
use WiFi to check weather radar, e-mail
use iPhone as a calculator
use iPhone to scan-in purchase receipts, invoices, etc. and store and relay these to my iMac for records
use iPhone as a music player/iPod
use WiFi at home to relay iPhone's camera-photos to e-mail and/or Instagram
use iPhone as a voice-recorder to take voice to-do notes for later action
Is this possible? Is there an iPhone plan that would work on minutes, and be able to function on local cell towers?

AT&T offers different international roaming data plans - it is the partner carrier in each country that is charging AT&T and its subscribers outrageous fees, which AT&T does in return for those roaming internationally in the U.S.
With an app that requires internet access, you need an available wi-fi network to access the internet with the app without incurring international data roaming fees.

400 minute landlines only calls to mexico not avai...

Hi ,
I had a suscription for 400-minute Mexico 400 mins to landlines 12 months which didn't renew because my credit card was canceled and so the automatic charge didn't happen.
Today I am trying to renew the suscription but I cannot find the same plan. I see one that says 400 to landline+cell, but it is ridiculously expensive. About $40/month whereas last year I paid about $170 for the whole year.
I mean the suscription just expired today and I wanted to renew the old one.
Is that still possible?

Hi, Im trying to set up a subscription from the UK to Mexico landline calls. However under the Mexico subscription it mentions only Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterey. I wish to call the state / province Baja California, sepcifically Tijuana on the edge of Mexico with the USA at the far NE tip.
Q: Does this subscription cover this at the quoted prices please?
Which Mexico subscription?
In the Unlimited North America subscription at US$ 7.99/month, calls to landlines in those 3 cities are covered, along with calls to landlines and mobiles in the USA and Canada. Calls to any other landline in Mexico are charged at 3 US cents/minute, and calls to Mexican mobiles are 15 US cents/minute. I didn't see anything about discounted calling to any other numbers in the Unlimited Mexico plans.
Q2: I have a subscription for calling the UK presently. I am now in the UK so not needed. Can I change the subscription over to the Mexico one or do I have to cancel and start a new subscription?
Skype doesn't allow you to convert one subscription to another. You would have to cancel the UK subscription, then sign up for the other subscription.
Good luck!

Unlimited subscription USA minute usage?

I wanted to get a better understanding of your unlimited USA subscription. So basically we have a small business and we have alot of customers who call us every day on different line to check inevtory on different products. We want to use the skype plan for our outbound calling to our 150 different distributors the calls will not be longer than 5 to 10 minutes per call and all the calls will be with in the US. Now some of the calls will be to the same distributor several times a day so we will call the same number mutiple times in other words. Your plan says unlimited but i know there's a fair use policy in play so i wanted to know what is the monthly minutes usage for inbound and outbound what's the daily usage for both and what violations should i be aware of with our set up.

Why am I not able to get a break down of my off peak minutes for my calls made to Mexico?

I have the Nationwide Mexico Plan. I have unlimited nights and
weekend calls for the United States and a 1000 minute limit for Mexico. I always check my minutes by *611, #646 or My Verizon. Why is there never an estimate of how many minutes I use calling Mexico? Why is it that, not even a customer service rep can give me an estimate of the minutes I have used calling Mexico ? If I have a limit, I should be able to get an estimate of how many minutes I am using . Maybe Verizon expects me to go on My Verizon and calculate it myself with calculator, the primitive way. I am very disappointed with Verizon. Verizon is suppose to be the best. Why is there no email address for me to email a person with any issues I have with this service. Will my issue be resolved? Will anybody ever answer me? Is this discussion group going to help me with my problem? Will I have to report Verizon to the FCC.
Hoping to find a solution!!!! >Changed Font<

Being a college graduate, I am sure you are aware this is a "forum" and NOT a "chat room".
As to contacting the BBB or FCC, I was not aware the FCC required Verizon to give you a "breakdown" or summary of your Mexico minutes separated from the rest of your minutes. I guess you learn something new every day.
You say your minutes are available in your MyVerizon but they are just not listed as "Mexico" minutes. Instead of using a calculator, you could download your usage into an Excel spreadsheet and then sort them by area code. Seems to be an easier way than adding up each individual call. Good luck.

FaceTime freezes when same room has no problems. The picture is high resolution. There are no freezes when calling my daughter's iPad but the picture is lower resolution. Can I troubleshoot this?

FaceTime freezes when I call my son's iPad. Calling his iPhone in the same room has no problems. The picture is high resolution. There are no freezes when calling my daughter's iPad but the picture is lower resolution. Can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks Mario, but I tried everything there before posting my question. I may not have been clear in my question since I accidently recorded the whole question as the title and tried to edit. In brief: I have no trouble connecting with my daughter's iPad or my son's iPhone. However, his iPad is sending much higher resolution pictures and we disconnect after about a minute. Oddly, he can hear and see me while my screen first freezes, then goes black and gives me a message of "reconnecting" until it quits trying and shows the buttons to end or redial. The picture quality difference is what is leading me to believe it is bandwidth related. However, I get anywhere from 5 to 10 MB download speeds; usually closer to 10. Last summer, I had 4 granddaughters on their iPads, a grandson on his gaming device and me on cell phone or pc, all using the bandwidth at once with no complaints. If there is a way to lower his outgoing resolution, I think that would help.

Subscription start but can't call

I can see this mess but in my account the subscription is started for unlimited calls world but still can't make any call anywhere . As in my account there is mess below
You are currently restricted from purchasing services or redeeming vouchers. Please contact Customer Support to review your account statuS. Help me out please

I checked your account and your subscription is active, but when I was looking at your call history then I noticed that most numbers you dialed start with +44 which is country code for UK. Take a look: https://secure.skype.com/account/call-history
Could you try to dial numbers with +1 instead
Here's also guide for Skype for Windows version:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA20
If you are using some smartphone with Skype then it seems for some reason country code is defaulting to +44 and of course calls will not go through since it's UK number.
Tip: I'll gladly assist any user in this forum, but in order for me to notice cases more easily you can start a new thread for your posts
Otherwise it might get too confusing and all the previous users under this thread will get spam email notification

60min usage subscription steps to make a call

Have office 365 60min subscription. .when i make a call in skype., it asks me to buy credit...i logged in using Microsoft account. How do I make a call using the office 365 60 min per month subscription? I couldn't find any video or step-by-step manual or tutorial to make a call using a subscription. All I could find is how to call in skype, which is irrelevant in this context and ..its frustrating. .

Hi,
Got the answer to my question...lol..
The world minutes for office 365 includes calls made to landlines (and optionally to mobiles) to a select few countries only. As I was calling to a destination country that wasn't in the selected "few" countries, it displayed the "buy credit.." message to make a call. I tried calling to one of the selected "few" countries and was successful in the call.
I would suggest if the message to be displayed is more contextual to the problem like "You do not have credit and/or the existing subscription doesn't allow for calling to the destination number"..
Meaningful answer. isn't it Sype developers?? If yes, hope you change accordingly.
Thanks.

Subscriptions are SNEAKY

Only after I bought a UK unlimited subscription, do I find out that it does not include UK 'shared cost' numbers - ie Royal Mail, and the Gas and Electricity companies, and I will need to buy extra credit to contact these numbers. This is very sneaky, and I am disappointed in Skype.

Hello,
Calls to UK "shared cost" #s are very expensive - too expensive to be included in a Call Plan.
I will raise the issue of making it clear on our webpages that calls to UK "non-geographic" landlines are not included in Call Plans.
Thank you for pointing it out.

Subscription renewed but cannot make call

Hello, I bought yesterday a new unlimited (Europe) subscription but i can't call is that normal ?

Hello All
Please note that your accounts show that you have used your full minutes allocation in your current billing cycle and your next minutes will be added to your account when your next billing cycle starts.
Renewing your monthly Subscription before your billing cycle ends has NO effect on the date upon which your minutes allocation will be added to your account.
To continue calling until your next minutes allocation is applied to your account please purchase either a Subscription but with a different amount of minutes or Skype Credit.
I'm closing this thread now. If you have further queries please post INDIVIDUALLY as using someone else's topic will delay a response to you.
Thank you.

New 12-Month Premium Subscription Charging Minutes...

Greetings -
I recently purchased a 12-month Skype Premium subscription, which includes the unlimited calling to landlines and mobile numbers in the US and Canada. Unfortunately, calls are still costing me credit, even though I have an active Premium Subscription.
The subscription shows as active on my account, and I have not exceeded the fair-use policy.
Thanks for your assistance!
