No, you won't be able to transfer a number to Skype. Skype does not participate in number-portability schemes, so you would have to select a Danish number from what Skype has available.

Transfer Existing Phone Number To Skype Online Num...

Can an existing landline or mobile service number be transferred to Skype as my Skype Online number?

It probably depends on which country you are based, though normally you cannot port a phone number to Skype. There are USA companies which, for a monthly fee circa $10, allow you to park your landline number with them and they will foward calls to Skype.

Is it possible to forward cell phone number to skype online number? If so, what do I need to do to set it up? Also, would my carrier (T-Mobile) charge me minutes for forwarded calls? Thanks.

Maybe. Your phone should have settings to set forwarding for all calls to your T-Mobile number. If you enable that, your T-Mobile phone won't ring anymore, but you could still use your phone to make calls and for sending/receiving SMS or MMS messages.
If you are asking about forwarding calls when the mobile phone is on but you don't answer the phone, instead of those calls going to a T-Mobile voicemail system, you *may* be able to change that. T-Mobile doesn't let you do that on a prepaid phone, and that appears to be the same if you use some other prepaid services that ride on T-Mobile's network like Straight Talk. It may be possible on a postpaid plan (one where you get a monthly invoice to pay).
As for what T-Mobile would charge, you'd have to check on your plan or contact T-Mobile. Some plans have unlimited calling that includes call-forwarding, others only provide for a certain number of minutes for call-forwarded calls a month, and then there are some "plans" that make you pay for anything that is call-forwarded from your T-Mobile number. The T-Mobile web site may be able to help answer that, or a call to their customer service number will need to be made.
Good luck!

How long does it take for Orange to transfer my phone number contract to payg

I have been with Orange on contract since 2000, and decided to leave.I let Orange know in advance of my contract expiry on 22/6/15.They said I could not have a payg sim so far in advance.I rang two weeks before the contract expiry and they said they would send me a payg sim.They sent it to an address which I have never lived at, and which has never appeared on my bill.I went on holiday.When I came back the new sim had not arrived so I phoned Orange. They said we have sent it to an address in Bedfordshire which you have never lived at. Never mind we’ll send you another payg sim to your home.By now we are nearly a month after my contract expired.I have received the payg sim and the mobile number attached, I managed to get the temp number topped up and requested they transfer my number on Weds 22/7/15.By today Monday I have lost five days of business and my old number has not been transferred. I rang them twice on 23rd July, and again twice on 24th often to find out that they charge me 25p to get a message saying they are not open, so that’s £1 so far. And again with 20 minutes holding listening to music at lunchtime totals £1.25.Over the weekend make that £11 (had to top up).The phone number &*()_ i want to keep is now dead and has stopped taking voicemails.I need this number as it is on all my business cards and website.When you do finally get the number working on payg, I will then get Orange to supply a pac code and move to a different provider.One of the many departments I spoke to yesterday on your 25p line said I should give you a month to get out of the contract. I said I am on payg and I will go when I like!This abysmal level of service for 15 years is why I am leaving orange.The people on the 25p line also have a very poor understanding of English and are more interested in parroting that EE is a great service provider with a good network or some such nonsense.I hope they get my number working so that I can get off Orange network. at the time of writing 5 days and counting so far to transfer a number. At various stages the customer service line have said that I have never been with orange, (after 15 years of once a month bills), they have laughed and said no managers are here at weekends and put the phone down on me. They have given me a manager to speak to, who has given me an incorrect pac code to go to another network. The manager has not been contactable since. And every time I ring they say you must give it another 24 hours or 48 hours

Hi ,
I'm very sorry to hear of the problems you have had moving to pay as you go.
Please can you give customer service a call and ask to speak to the pay monthly retentions team who will be able to fix this issue for you.

Grandfathered unlimited, but want to keep my current phone number

My wife loves her phone number, but no longer needs her unlimited data. She has an old plan, and we know that if we take advantage of the subsidy and upgrade her line, it will lose the unlimited data.
I am just winding down my first 2 year contract with Verizon, iphone 5. Separate account form my wife btw. So I was not able to get an unlimited data plan, I am on a tiered data plan, and I could really use an unlimited plan, like my wife's.
Reps have told me that there is no way to switch plans, but each keep our own phones and phone numbers. Apparently the phone number and the plan are tied together. WE could just trade phones, but then we would also be swapping phone numbers.
Can anybody suggest a solution?
I've considered taking over a friend's unlimited plan via Assumption of Liability, but then there is no way to get my phone number onto that unlimited line, at least so long as my phone number is already tied to a verizon line. (however, I do understand that if I take over a line via AOL, that I can subsequently change that number. It just may not be possible to change it to my particular number, )Is this correct?
I could go get a Sprint unlimited line, and then port my number over... but I think Verizon is a better provider.
Ive tried to think if google voice could help... I could port my current number out to google voice, and then see if I could port my number back in to the AOL unlimited line. Is this possible?
Any suggestions would be welcome!
This is all so silly.

When you say "getting a new phone through my new business plan", are you the account rep for the new business plan? Is the business plan through Verizon?
If you port your number to a new carrier, and your line is still in contract with Verizon, yes, there is an ETF. If the new business plan is with Verizon, the business plan can do an AOL of your line, and there will be no ETF.
If you are not the owner of the business plan, then you'll need to to talk to the account manager of the business plan to ensure that your number is ported, if possible.

Can I buy out my contract to transfer phone number to company account?

Hello,
Currently I have a droid phone under contract with Verizon, and I am eligible for an upgrade in June, 2015, but can buy out of the contract for $180. I also am going to get a company phone for my job, but it is required that this be the iphone 6 and it can be either with Verizon or AT&T service. Ideally I would like to just transfer my number to my company account and use the iphone full time, but unfortunately it's not that simple.
Here are the options I've been informed I have:
1) Have the company take over my account for no cost, but the company would have to pay $649 for a new iphone since I'm not eligible for an upgrade, and I'm not sure I can get this added cost approved.
2) Get a separate company phone number and iphone that the company will buy for me (I think it will cost them $200). Not ideal because I would either lose my phone number or I would have to keep paying for my phone and carry 2 phones around.
Here's the option I want, but nobody can confirm it is possible:
3) I buy out my old contract for $180, then transfer the phone number to my company phone where I would get a new contract and a new iphone. I'd be fine paying the $180 out of my pocket since I'd make that up in savings in 3 months. I was on hold with customer service while 2 service people were debating whether or not this was possible, but after 15 minutes of dead air I had to leave to attend a work meeting, so I don't know if it's possible.
Here's the option I don't want to but may be forced to do:
4) Start a new contract with AT&T through my company and have my number ported over. I would then pay the $180 to Verizon to get me out of my obligation.
In case anyone has actually taken the time to read all this, here are my questions:
- Is Option #3 actually possible? Has anyone done it?
- Is Option #4 possible? If it is possible, wouldn't Verizon just prefer I do option #3.
- Are there any other options I'm not considering?
Thanks for any input you can give

Hello Kinquana,
Yes, I'm available for Early Edge upgrade, but from what I can tell it doesn't really offer my company any savings versus them just buying the iphone up front at full price, and it probably just creates complications for the IT department. Either way, it's an additional cost that I would have to get approved.
So it sounds like my best option is to just move my number to AT&T and cancel my verizon account? Seems like you would not want that to happen.
I do not have any issues with my current phone, but my company requires that I get an iphone due to compatibility with email and security.
Thanks for the quick response

Can't transfer phone number!!!

I'm currently a sprint customer and I'm trying to transfer my number to AT&T in the initial stage of setting up my iphone and I get the message:
"the phone number you entered cannot be transfered. You must uncheck the transfer number option and clear the information in the text fields to continue"
I've done it 20 times now and checked my account number etc. more than a few times....
Whats up?
Windows XP

AT&T will say you cannot transfer your phone number if your old phone number is in a different service area than your current location/billing address. HOWEVER, there is a workaround.
On the first screen of the activation step, you'll need to enter your old billing zip (i.e. a zip code that matches the area code of your current phone number). Later in the process you'll be able to enter your correct billing address.

CDMA phone number transfer questions

I have a Verizon CDMA Iphone4 supplied by my company. They just sent me a new iphone5. I noticed it has a sim card slot. How do I transfer my phone number that was ringing to the iphone4 over to the iphone5? The phone is on the company plan with Verizon. I have restored all other features of the phone from a backup of my old phone.

If the phone and the number are owned and paid for by the company, then Verizon will only talk to the people who have been authorized on the account. As Ralph suggests, you'll need to go through whoever handles these this contact with Verizon as only they can authorize Verizon to change the number from one phone to another.

How can I remove my old phone number from my iPhone?

I want to sell my old iPhone 5 (Sprint), and I want to get everything off of it. Obviously I'd restore it and remove everything first, but how do I get the 'My number' to change from my current phone number (which was ported to T Mobile and is with a newer phone now) to something else/removed? I remember I had the same problem a few years ago with an android phone, and I kept getting texts from my number on it (both phones at the same time), I obviously don't want something like this to happen again, especially if I sell it.
Thanks in advance

How Do I Transfer My Phone # To My New Phone?

I would really appreciate any feedback, as soon as posible!
Here's the gist:
My old phone is crap, so I ordered a new one online. The new one is the EXACT same phone as my old one. Model, Verizon powered, etc
How do I transfer my phone number to this new 1? Does it transfer automatically when I activate it? I was told to call *228 or something on the new phone, but I dont see how that will transfer my number.
Thank you in advance you guys!

Yes, dialing *228 on the new phone (make sure the old one is OFF) and choosing option1 will begin the process. You will be asked to input the # you are calling about (that tells Verizon what number you want to use on the new phone), and the billing passcode (to be sure you are authorized on the account) and if all is in order, you'll listen to some weird music while the phone is programmed to the number you input.
If there is an issue you will be instructed to call customer service.
HTH,

How do you delete a phone number from an iphone that is listed under other and not in the contacts list?

When I text a contact in my iphone 4s the name will show up like it should but it has the persons current phone number and another or their old number listed under other. Its not in my contacts on my laptop anywhere so how do I delete that old number, I have looked in my phone contacts its not there but its like the email addressess show up to if you start typing an email address will show up even if its not one in your contacts.

Did you manage to resolve this issue?
I called Apple Care, tried various things that did not work, then completely reset my iPhone 5 and restored from a recent backup. That worked for a day or so, then the definct "other" number was again offered when I started typing the name of a contact whom I wanted to text.

I had Net10 Wireless, What information do i need to transfer my net10 number to my new iPhone 5 through T-mobile?

So i had Net10 on a 3GS Phone, im buying a new iPhone 5 through T-mobile on Tuesday, What information from Net10 do i need to transfer my phone number to the NEW iPhone 5 through T-mobile?

Further info:
The FCC requires all simple ports, which yours is, to be completed in one business day & NET10 cannot refuse to port the number for any reason, but, they are permitted to charge for processing the port on their end. Your new carrier, T-Mobile starts the porting process. The FCC recommends you provide your new carrier with account number & zip code, in addition to phone number, but such additional info is not required.
