Best way to use Skype number with phones/PC?

I am considering switching my home business phone to a Skype number. The ideal useage solution would be to be able use Skype on my PC while at my desk, and route to the phone (or my cell) at other times.
I see that you offer the FreeTalk Home adapter, and also Skype enabled phones, but it is not clear which combination of devices/services I need.
Advice on how to do accomplish this would be appreciated.
Thanks much.

If I take what you said in the first paragraph as what you want to do, there are ways to do that without buying a Skype-specific phone or that adapter. You would need to use Call Forwarding, pointing to a phone number that your Skype account would send unanswered calls to. You would need to either purchase Skype Credit or a subscription to cover calls to that phone number. For more than a handful of calls a month, a subscription would probably be the best (and cheapest) option. You could set the Call Forwarding to send calls to several numbers simultaneously, and then Skype would connect the call to the first phone from that list that answers the forwarded call.
If you have a mobile phone that can run a Skype app, you could also use that to be logged into Skype. You could be logged into Skype from both the computer and a mobile phone.

My brother in law who is visiting us tells me that his iPhone 3G does not let him use SKYPE anymore. Is that the case?

Hi,
My brother in law who is visitng me in the US from Germany has iphone 3G. He tells me he can no longer
use SKYPE on the phone app. Is that the case?

I believe the latest update of the Skype app requires a version of iOS that the iPhone 3G is not capable of running. The 3G maxes out at 4.2.1.

How to set up Touch to use Skype for phone calls?

I use Skype with my iMac for making phone calls and would like to do the same with my new iPod Touch. I've looked in the Touch User's Guide but have not been able to find a procedure for setting up the Touch to accomplish this. I would appreciate feedback on how to do this from those who are successfully using Skype with their Touch units. One thing I am curious about is whether I can sync my Touch with the Skype program--including phone numbers-- already present on my iMac.

Yes and no... you will have two versions of Skype on your computer, but one will only be appearing in iTunes and your iPod since they are two different app.
You can still have both Skype application open and loged into your account at the same with no problem. There is no special setup to do on your iPod more than login into your account and having credits into your account, exactly as you probably done with Skype on your computer.

Harassment phone calls using Skype function (i.e. ...

Note: I have sent an e-mail to the Support Team. Pending reply.
Based on call history, my home and mobile numbers have been bombarded by phone calls (using Skype) from Skype user, who resides in another country.
For example
Time: 02:20 till 22:33
30-Aug-2012, home number received 15 calls and mobile number received 27.
Time: 00:00 till 22:20
31-Aug-2012, home number received 44 calls and mobile number received 90.
Time: 11:46 till 23:54
01-Sep-2012, home number received 04 calls and mobile number received 33.
Note: The harassment calls started since Oct-2010. I had discovered these harassment calls were made by this Skype user. I am able to provide call history made by this Skype user from Mar-2012 till Sep-2012.
This is a serious violation of the Skype's Terms of Service. Please investigate and take appropriate actions against this issue. Your quick response is very much appreciated. Thank you.

I have a similar problem. I recently reinstated Skype on my iPad. I am able to sign in, to check my profile page and to check on my credit (I have about $30 US on it). But, I am unable to bring up a dial pad, nor a phone logo. I should add, I do have another copy of Skype on my iPad, under a different spelling of my name, that works perfectly well. I want to be able to contact to Skype using the re-instated account (which I had created earlier in error) so as to use up the existing credit, as I've learned that I can't combine the two accounts. What can I do? Can anything be done?

DESCRIBE_BY_DATA won't work i suppose, unless you got a data object defined as MARA in you're code!

I need to access and use Skype from overseas, and am considering buying a a Chinese phone called the X10. It's an unlocked quad-band GSM phone - which is fine - supports GPRS & WiFi, but is not 3G. It supports Java but is not Android. Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for in features that will allow Skype use, and what I should avoid? Many thanks. Steve
You probably want an Android or iPhone for use with the Skype mobile apps. Phones with the Symbian operating system - mostly Nokia phones - can also use a Skype app, but lacks some of the features available in the Android or iPhone versions. If you are able to confine your use to Skype to WiFi, not having 3G or 4G/LTE on your mobile phone is probably not an issue.
I have a Nokia N8 mobile phone, which uses the Symbian operating system. Nice phone, compatible with GSM/UMTS networks around the world. The Skype app for it is not great, but works on WiFi or 3G data networks. What I ended up doing was also purchasing an iPod Touch, which is compatible with apps for the iPhone, and a WiFI hotspot app for my N8. Then I use Skype on the iPod, connecting to the Internet through the N8's hotspot app via WiFi. It takes two devices in this case to use Skype, but I'm making use of the better Skype app on the iPod over the N8. Or I can just use the iPod if I have access to WiFi wherever I happen to be.
Hope that helps!

If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?

If I'm in Europe, can I use Skype on Droid Charge(via Wi-Fi) to call US phone numbers?
Obviously there's no voice or data roaming for Verizon 3G/4G/CDMA phones in Europe.... (or am I wrong?)
Thanks in advance!

Hello WCMack,
That was a great explanation on the situation. Just to confirm, Europe uses GSM for their wireless network. There are third party apps that will allow you to make calls via wi-fi on a wi-fi enabled device. This is largely due if wi-fi is available and if it's free.
From my experience, I was able to make wi-fi calls on my Iphone 4 in Greece without any problems last month. Since we don't own any towers in Europe, the service is hit or miss. Feel free to update us when you get back.
Enjoy your trip!...

Can I Use Skype Free Minutes From a Mobile Phone

Can you use Skype free minutes (provided with Office365) to call FROM a mobile phone? When I check the free minutes online, I see that they are active on my Skype account, but my Android mobile app does not show any Skype credit?

If your iPad Mini is a cellular model, you can use Skype (and buy a block of minutes). If only wireless, you can also use Skype on a wireless connection. It saved the day when I forgot my iPhone and needed to make a call. Skype sells phone numbers, but I've never gone that route.

Hi all, just some quick questions. Can I use skype-to-go on any mobile, basic included? Can I set up multiple skype-to-go numbers? Do I need wi-fi to be able to make a call or will the local broadcasting network work and finally, will it always cost the same to phone the UK no matter where I am? Pre-emtive thanks!

It costs you what a local call costs you plus the skype cost see the rates for this. Useful if you have inclusive minutes. Otherwise check your Voda rates to see the per minute calling cost.

Cant call mobile phones using Skype in Serbia

Dear ladies and gentlemen,
My parents are currently in Serbia and they are using Skype. They have 30€ of credit on their Skype account and use it to call numbers outside of Serbia. Now, this works without problems for landlines (e.g. in Germany) but it doesnt work for mobile phones (also in Germany). Do you have any idea what the problem might be?
Kind regards,

I have a UK Skype number that will ring in the office or on a laptop when I'm online - if I'm not online it diverts to my mobile. I realise that I pay for this forwarded call - at the moment through my Skype Credit but can I get this charge inclusive by buying a premium account or a subscription?
yes, as long as the calling plan you choose supports calls to your mobile (not all subscriptions support mobile numbers)

Using Skype To Go on Android phone

When making a call using Skype To Go, do we use the phone's dial pad or do we open the Skype app and dial from there?

1. When I call a Skype contact who has no phone number and who is logged into their computer while I am calling from my Verizon Skype To Go app in the US, I expect Verizon to keep track of my time as if I was calling from the US to a US phone number, no matter where the contact happens to be located, right?
2. The result will be for me to use US Verizon minutes and my Skype plan will incur no additional cost for the call from the US to Canada. Right?
Hello,
1. I believe so but please check with Verizon.
2. Yes - correct.

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.
