Transfer Skype number from Skype to British Teleco...

If I were to use a Skype number and use it for six months. After this time I wanted to use BT instead of Skype could I transfer my number from Skype to BT?
I have contacted BT and they said I will need a PAC code from Skype to transfer the number over. Is this a service Skype are able to provide?

Is it free to Call a Skype Number from Skype?

Hello... My girlfriend is overseas and and she has a skype number. Since I have skype, I would like to know if calling her to her skype number from sjype will cost me money...
Thanks

Dear Readers,
To clarify Sailorchibi's reply, above:
Hello... My girlfriend is overseas and and she has a skype number. Since I have skype, I would like to know if calling her to her skype number from sjype will cost me money...
If you have a subscription in place to cover the cost of the call, then there ought to be no additional charges. If your subscription(s) will not cover call costs, then Skype credit would. However, I am curious as to why you would not contact her as a Skype-to-Skype call, seeing as you both hold Skype accounts, thereby incurring no call charges?
Skype would consider a call to a Skype Number as an out-bound call to a fixed line number.

Elaine

Port number from Skype to At&t?? Prior Success but...

I do not understand and am frustrated. I recently acquired/purchased a second landline number since the process of porting out a number from skype to AT&T was completed at a prior time successfully (a year or two ago).
I now am hindered in this process due to ATT saying they recently received a memo which disables them to proceed. Something about Skype's telecom partner no longer allowing international ports or something.
I called Verizon and they said this was possible for them and they would go ahead with the process.. I do not want to switch providers for a number but would like clarity. Anyone knowledgeable with this process and current/new policy?? I purchased the number for this specific reason.

Alright ... well, you may have lost your former number. You should have simply submitted your information to activate your iPhone and that act alone would have closed your Verizon account and transferred your number. So if you somehow believed you had to close your Verizon account before activating your iPhone then, in essence, you gave your phone number back to Verizon to release to a new Verizon customer.
Which is probably why your getting the message that there is no number to transfer. My advice: Accept your fate, re-activate and take a new number.
I say this because I transferred over from T-Mobile. In fact, I bought six iPhones all together (one for each of my employees) and they had accounts with different service providers (Sprint, Verizon, Metro, etc.). Two employees did as you did and we lost the numbers.
For those we didn't lose - the only trouble we ran into was failing to insert the the account information exactly as it appeared on our billing statements. If it was all in caps and we went back and put re-input all in caps then the activation and number transferred. If we let off our suite number or if it was shown as # or STE then when we provided that just as it appeared on the statement, the transfer went through.
I hope this helps.

Get a UK Skype number from Japan

Hello,
Is it possible to get a UK skype number from Japan?
If it is possible, can I use this number to be displayed when I call Japanese customers?
(eg. they see a number something like, +44 xxx xxx)

Ok not got an RTX myself but have looked at them.
I presume you have got the RTX connected to your network via ethernet and also to the Spanish land line connected too. Sign into your Skype account on the RTX, I presume you have some calling credit on your Skype account.
Your RTX will ring on whichever incoming number that has been called, either the Spanish line or your Skype UK number.
Check the calling rates page for costs to call the UK. https://www.skype.com/en/rates/?nu=subs-calling. Open up the rates to United Kingdom, then check the Pay as You Go rates and select "view all PAYG rates". That will open up a tab with all the PAYG rates to the UK including mobiles and special numbers. Note that there is a connection charge too. General charges are 1.8p/min + 3.1p connection fee to landlines and 7.6p/min + 5.6p connection charge to UK mobiles
If you find yourself making a lot of UK calls then a subscription might give better value, but note there are two types of subscriptions, one type is only to UK landlines and the other is to UK landlines and mobiles.

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
Yes. You can choose a Skype Number from any country which is listed as providing one. Your location is irrelevant.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

Can I transfer my number from an ee micro sim to an ee nano sim

I've bought an iPhone 5 and was currently using an iPhone 4 previously. Is it possible to transfer my number from my micro sim to the nano sim and can I do it at home or do I have to go into a shop.

Can I transfer my Skype number from a old account ...

Hello,
I have a Skype phone number that is attached to my Skype personal account, but I use it only for my business. Now I want to create another Skype account on my business name and I want to transfer the Skype phone number from my personal account to my new Skype acount on my business name.
If this phone number transfer is possible, please let me know how to do it.
Thanks,

Hi, Crisda25, and welcome to the Community,
Skype does not permit the transfer of subscriptions, credit, or features from one account to another. Keeping processes simple does not provide flexibility.
Kind regards,
Elaine

How to switch Skype number from 3-month plan to an...

A friend initially subscribed to 3-months Skype number plan. Now she would like to change to 1-year subscription. However, there does not seem to be any option to do this. The initial 3 months just passed and an automatic charge appeared on her payment card. There does not seem to be any "modify" subscription option (not even a "cancel" subscription option). There is no Skype/Microsoft support readily available. This is very bad experience for her and it seems to be rather common issue. I am actually surprised by this and have expected more from Skype/Microsoft. Any ideas about how to change the subscription?

Hi, PetrVeprek, and welcome to the Community,
As strange as this sounds, the short-term Skype Number contract needs to be cancelled. When the subscription ends, the Skype Number is held in reserve for a period of 90 days, during which timeframe the number can be renewed for an annual term.
If all else fails, please contact Skype customer service for further assistance. I would report to Customer Service that the renewal e-mails were not received - after checking that the account's registered e-mail address is correct! You would not believe the number of enquiries I read where a Skype account's registered e-mail address has fallen into disuse, not updated, and therefore resulting in no communications received from Skype.
Regards,
Elaine

Transfer Packet8 Number to Skype?

I have had a Packet8 phone number for years and would like to transfer it to my account. Packet8 is similar to Vonage. Can I do this? I have a skypein (or skypeout I forget which it's called) phone number on the account - I just want to add this additional Packet8 number.
Thanks in advance for any help with this. Packet8 says they can transfer it out - so it's just a matter of whether you can accept it.

Hi, Claywd,
Skype Number
Instead of porting a number into Skype, start a Skype Number subscription.
Anticipating your next question, a few caveats to be aware of so you can make an informed decision: while you can take out up to ten (10) Skype Number subscriptions per Skype account, call forwarding and voice mail function for the Skype account itself, not each individual Skype Number. What people tend to do who require a facility to separate voice mail and call forwarding for each Skype Number is to start a new Skype account for each Skype Number they need. The FAQ articles related to Skype Numbers remind us that Skype Numbers can not accept incoming SMS messages; these are routed to a mobile phone number instead.
There may be other Skype-compatible add-ons as noted in the post, above, however I confess I have not researched anything like this lately.

Remove Skype number from account

I've just canceled my subscription and Skype number. However, my Skype number will remain active for another month yet. I never gave my number out to anyone and have no use for it, but I keep getting scam calls on this number. I want to completely remove it from my profile, but cannot find a way to do this. How do I clear that number out of my profile?

Have you found a fix?
