Unlimited world subscription but no facility to ma...

Hi,
I want to set up a skype phone account so that calls can be made to any landline/mobile that are FOC within my subscription.  However, I also want to make sure that no other calls can be made outside of this subscription list i.e. to any numbers that would incurr a further charge.
Can anyone help me understand if this is possible?
Many thanks
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
If you purchase Unlimited World and you don't have any Skype Credit then you can't call to any other number that is not covered by your subscription.
Bottom line is that subscription only covers calls to numbers that are included, in order to call anywhere else you need Skype Credit. As long as you don't add Skype Credit you have nothing to worry about.

    But Now I heard in the news that Skype isn't blocked anymore in UAE . 
    I tried calling again , but still didn't work . 
    Could you help me out please ? 
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Your call history currently shows that last call was almost 5 minutes and it was covered by your subscription:
    https://secure.skype.com/account/call-history
    It seems subscription is working.
    I did notice that you tried to call also Brazil & Venezuela mobile numbers, but these are not included:
    www.skype.com/intl/en/prices/pay-monthly/#Unlimite​dWorld
    For these numbers you need a different subscription or Skype Credit.
    If you still have trouble calling destination that is covered by your subscription then please provide exact call date/time/number to customer service and they can look into this.

  • Unlimited World subscription but unable to call co...

    Hi,
    I have a unlimited world subscription and for some reason I'm unable to call to one of the countries that are in the list (Brazil), the phone I'm trying to call is a landline. Do I need to re-subscribe so the new countries for the unlimited world subscription works with my account?
    BTW, I am using the format: +(country code) (area code) (number)
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, as you initially purchased your subscription before the new countries were added, the destination Brazil is not included into your subscription.
    What you can do is repurchase the subscription from the webpage, this way when the new subscription period starts (after the old already active subscription is over), the new subscription will be working for you.
    Hope it helps,

  • Unlimited World subscription

    I just paid my unlimited world subscription but can't make any call. I tried to call a mobile in China but it says I need to get a Skype credit. Why? Ipaid for subscription. I paid and payment is successful but can't even use it for calling. I need feedback. URGENT please!

    My status of payment is 'Delivered' but when I log into skype and make a call it doesn't go thru.
    Money has been debited from my account and I am not able to call any number.
    What is the problem....
    I have never been so disappointed by skype before.
    Skype now offers two versions of the Unlimited World subscription.  One - the cheaper option - does not include calling to China.  Please click on "Subscriptions" near the bottom of this page to see the new details.
    You can cancel the subscription you just started, then sign up for the new Unlimited World subscription that includes calling to China.  Be prepared for the higher price of the subscription with calling to China.

  • Re: Unlimited World Subscription free trial

    I cannot use my subscription at all. I checked before getting it that the number in Costa Rica was reachable via this subscription. My account says I have TWO different subscriptions, but I am unable to use. The notice "You must have Skype credit or a subscription to make this call" always appears. I have paid for two! What is going on? This is very lousy customer service!!!
    I also tried actually reaching customer service, which is impossible! So I am here.

  • Unlimited World Subscription free trial

    Hi, 
    From the Skype home page I clicked on "Prices" and then "Special Offers", after which I clicked the link to "Get your Free month" of the Skype unlimited World subsription trial. I followed all the steps, entered card details, agreed Terms of service. But now it doesn't seem I have a subscription? When I try to make a call to a landline, it tells me I need Skype Credit? 
    I didn't receive an email after doing this, and I don't see any "subsciptions" on my home page, but not sure if i just don't know where to look. 
    Please could someone help me out?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    According to the system your package doesn't include Brazil. You have a Skype Premium subscription with Unlimited World. If you want to learn more about Skype Premium please visit: http://www.skype.com/en/premium/
    To check subscription's details on your own account: 
    Go to www.skype.com > "my subscriptions" (located on the left side) > click on preferred package and then  click on "destinations".
    I hope it's clear

  • Trouble with unlimited world subscription

    I have trouble re-activative my unlimited world subscription.
    When I click re-activative, it leads me to a chinese site, where I have no idea how to re-activative my unlimited world subscription. I think my account may be linked to chinese Tom skype, and my payment then go through it via chinese dollar. But I don't want that and I never authorize my skype to do that. Now I want to bring my skype back to US. Any one can help me with that?

    Did you first register your Skype account in China? If so you will be automatically routed to our Chinese partner tom.com (We have a legally binding agreement with them).
    The only way to break this link is to create a new account.
    If you did NOT first register in China please file here:

  • Re: Skype Premium and Unlimited World subscription

    I HAVE A SKYPE PREMIUM ACCOUNT. BUT I WANT TO CONVERT IT INTO UNLIMITED WORLD SUBSCRIPTION. CAN I USE MY REMAINING CREDIT FROM SKYPE PREMIUM TO TRANSFER INTO UNLIMITED WORLD CALL SUBSCRIPTION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS I WANT TO DISSCONTINUE MY SKYPE PREMIUM AND SHIFT OVER. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Hi,
    Please note that Skype subscriptions are recurring by default.
    This means that, unless you cancel your payment agreement, the system will automatically charge you to renew it.
    I checked your account and can confirm that your subscription is still set to recur automatically. You do not have to take any action on your end if you still wish to continue using it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Unlimited world Subscription wont allow me to call...

    Hi,
    So I have had an unlimited world calling subscription since 9/6 of 2010. In the past this service has worked but now it seems that when I try to dial any international numbers I get a message stating I have no credits left. When I check my account it shows my unlimited world subscription as active. How can I correct this issue. I am in a rush as I plan to be traveling to Eurpope in 2 days and was planning on this being my main means of communication.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I can confirm your subscription is active, but please keep in mind that it doesn't cover France mobile numbers: www.skype.com/intl/en/prices/pay-monthly/#UnlimitedWorld

  • Cannot call with unlimited world subscription

    Hi
    I have subscribed to Unlimited world subscription and had recently paid the bill for the month.
    However, I cannot make a phonecall to Malaysia using the account. The phone keep showing the message insufficient credit. And prompted me to buy credits.
    My username is [Removed for privacy].
    This is urgent and I need to make important call. Why doesn't Skype have a customer service hotline?
    This is so frustrating.  
    Reply me at [Removed for privacy] once this is fixed.

    Hello,
    I can see that you have tried to call a mobile in Malaysia, this is not included in your Subscription, you can call only landlines.
