Unable to use Skype credit

I purchased Skype credit yesterday and when I tried making calls, receiving the message that I need to buy credit. Faced the same problem last month and lost half of my credit without making calls.

You can create a new account without a credit card.
Refer to article here:
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

However, you cannot change your exisiting account into a "NONE" payment account

Hello
Not all users can pay using Skype Credit. If the option isn't presented in the purchase flow it's not available to you.

Using Skype credit to (re)activate Skypenumber

Hi, I have a skypenumber that I want to reactivate. Costs euro 18.I bought skype credit for euro 25 using idEal (total now euro 27)
When I reactivate my skypenumber I do NOT get an icon where I can select Skype credit that I just paid for, just credit card options I do not want to use. Does anyone know how to use Skype Credit to (re) new a skype number? This icon that is promised in the help section really does NOT appear anywhere.

I got the skype number and instead of adding $10 worth of credit, I added $25 with the hope that I will use them again. I couldn't use them all but then skype expired my number. I think it is totally very cheap an unethical of skype to hoard somebody's money like this. The subscription should not expire as long as I have skype credit. I purchased skype number with the hope of keeping it forever as long as I had my credit in there. Instead, I find out that I have to pay an extra $18 to keep the number and reactivate my skype credit. I am very angry. I am unemployed and need every dime to myself. If I were to pay for monthly subscription, then I could myself get a "go phone" and receive MUCH better voice quality. Skype voice quality sucks and they have the audacity to ask for subscripton fee?

Why i am unable to use skype from my sony xperia c3 dual phone.help me as soon as possible.

i was using skype from my mobile phone and it was really good but few days i was unable to use skype.i face lot of problem.please help me as soon as possible.

Sounds like your iPhone was unofficially unlocked by hacking it. You need to call AppleCare, tell them you only want to know which cell carrier your iPhone is locked to and give them the model and serial number. Then contact that cell carrier and see what their official unlock policy is and if you qualify.

Unable to Buy Skype Credit!

I have just tried to buy Skype Credit, but the system
tells me that I have reached my monthly credit limit,
this I don't understand, I didn't know that there was
any limits on purchases.
This block is from Skype, I have tried 2 different cards
and also PayPal, everyone was rejected.
I really need to call Bolivia every day and now I am
unable to do so.
How can I get this block removed?

Unable to purchase skype credit via korea skype fa...

Skype in Korea has been taken over by a local company. Theyve added credit card purchasing features that are not compatible with english. Ive tried several times to reload my skype credit but failed.
Its really frustrating. The korean company hasnt yet replied to my emails regarding this problem and that was 2 weeks ago. Somebody pls help.

Has anyone figured out how to use or bypass the Daesung site?
Hello,
For a few countries a legally binding agreement requires you to be transferred automatically to Skype's local partner website if you established your account in that country. This can't be changed. The workaround is to create a new account.

As a manager I am unable to purchase skype credit

I can no longer purchase any credit, due to suspected fraud on my account, I have tried to contact Skype to rectify this, but to no avail, I also filled out the recovery form, but could not remember the exact date that I created my account, I am at a remote mining site in West Africa & use Skype to keep in touch with my loved ones, this is most frustrating, could somebody please advise me on what to do. If I attempt to purchase credit, the purchase goes through only to be reversed again minutes later.

I am the adminstraor on the skype manager account and am not able to buy credit for myself.
I have been trying for over 6 weeks to buy credit - I have received emails informing a managee wants credit. I have recieved skype notifications informing me that there is a problem with my automatic recharge and I have had many, many error messages saying "Looks like our website is currently having a few problems. Please try again later."
I have tried plenty of times. At least 8 hours worth of trying over 6 weeks - waiting for the website to work (I haven't been able to access the useage history or billing history either). Today is my final attempt and if it is not resolved, I will be dismanteling our company's Skype Manager account and finding an alternate solution.

Use skype credit for subscription

Hi evertone,
I was wonderen if I could use my Skype credit to pay for a subscription.
I've got enough money in my account to pay for the one I would like to use plus I can remember, that I could use my credit whilst having an automatic (renewing every month) subscription.
Thanks for your help

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
Skype Credit isn't available to purchase Subscriptions to everyone, The best way to check if you can use this funding option is to proceed through this purchase flow of your chosen Subscription. If the option is presented it means that you can use and vice-versa.

Cabbit use skype credit to dial landline and mobile

I have been using Skype for over 10 years, and work internationally, so it really comes in handy for me , escept when I have poor WIFI,,,, I use it on desktop and my Iphone,,,, This week my account was suspended for suspicious activity and I was forced to submit information to reactivate and change my password,,, now that I went through all that, I still cannot dial landline and mobile phones although I have 35$ credit showing on my account,,,I have not been told why the account was suspended in the frst place,,, and now I am travelling and cannot even use it ,,,, I am very dissappointed at the process and difficulty to contact anyone who can reactivate my service... Any other service that suspects suspicious activity would simply inform me by my known email,, and resent verification link to the email to initiate a reset,,, but instead,, microsoft goes through an extended automated process, while the customer is forced to sit and wait,, then doesnt even know in the end why the problem started in the first place,,, I am slowly migrating away from microsoft,, and this is just another reason why,,,,

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.

Your credit balance is currently $9.94 which is not enough to fund your required Subscription which costs $11.99/month. Your credit will remain in your account and can be used for other purchases.
