Using Skype to Go to receive calls?

I want to have a phone number with a unique area code that I can give to people for the purpose of calling me. I want calls to this number to always forward to my cell phone. Does the Skype to Go feature handle this?
What are the related fees for this? All the calls would be domestic within the US.
Thanks

You wouldn't user Skype To Go, but a Skype Online Number for that:
- Buy Skype Online Number in your area code for your account: Online number
- Set up call forwarding to forward to your cellphone: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/features/allfeatures/​call-forwarding/
- Forwarding will either be paid for using your Skype credit or a Skype subscription

  • Two Iphones on the same WiFi network, using the same Apple ID receive calls meant for only one of the phones.

    Do you see a mostly black screen with four languages? If so, that's a kernel panic. Usually, it's hardware related, but can also be caused by corrupt software (the OS itself or third party items).

  • No Audio using Skype on UN60ES8000 with receiver

    I just bought a Samsung UN60ES8000 LED tv with built-in skype camera.  Skype works but I get no sound.  I am using a Pioneer VSX-1026-K receiver.  I can get sound from some apps in the Smart Hub but no sound from a Skype call.  I am using HDMI from receiver to TV and am using ARC on both the TV (HDMI2) and on the Pioneer Receiver (which was activated on the Receiver software when I couldn't get sound from YouTube).  Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

    I stopped being able to hear audio on Youtube videos about 30 minutes ago. With the videos I had already clicked into before the issue occurred, I could still hear these video's audio - then I closed these tabs. Closed the browser. Restart the computer. That didn't work.
    Tried using safe mode and clicked into a Youtube video, still no audio.
    But audio works perfectly when I uses Google Chrome.

  • My new iPhone 4S has hearing problem.speaker and headphone works very good.However using handset to make and receive calls I cannot hear anything?I did restore the phone and removed the plastic.Is there any solution to this problem please?

    I am having heraing problem with iPhone 4S.Speaker and headphone works well.No echo.When I use handset to receive or make calls,I can't hear anything?I restore the phone and removed the plastic as well.Is there anyway to fix this problem?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

  • Urgent : Mystery Calls using Skype

    Hi,
    As i would like to use Skype to make mystery calls to test competence of my call centre support, I have a few questions:
    Example:
    I call using Skype from Singapore to China Call Centre, what is the phone number that will appear at the receiver's phone?
    Is this number the same for every call, no matter to which country?
    Or no number will appear?
    This is very important as I am using it for mystery calls.
    Thank you in anticipation.
    Rgds,
    KTY 

    You need to set the callerID on the Skype accounting page, so that the specific Skype online number is able to show on the caller's phone.

  • Can't Receive Calls to my Skype To Go Number

    We recently purchased a year long unlimited calling plan AND a skype to go number.
    Unfortunately, no one can call my number. Sometimes they receive a busy signal, other times it just beeps once and hangs up.
    Can you tell me why this is happening and how can we fix it so that I can receive calls to my to go number???

    If you mean "Online Number" please do the following:
    First check your privacy settings are set to ''Allow calls from anyone''.Then change them to "Allow SkypeIn calls from Only people from my Contacts List".Save and wait for 5 minutes.Log out from your Skype account and log back in. Change settings back to "Allow calls from Anyone". Save and wait for 5 minutes.Log out from your Skype account and log back in.

  • 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!

  • Receiving calls via Skype Online Number

    I understand that I pay £10 for 3 months to set this up.
    I understand that callers pay for a local call (so long as they're close to that local number)
    I do NOT understand if I pay to receive each call and if so, how much?

  • Use Skype on Mac for messages and desktop for call...

    Hi, 
    I'd like to know how to set up my Skype kit.
    I have Skype on my iMac, I use it to send and receive messages.
    I have a Skype phone that I would like to use to make and receive calls.
    I use both regular skype calls and paid calls (I have a Premium account and Skype Number).
    Right now I think the Mac prioritize the calls I receive. I would like the Skype phone to be the priority for receiving calls, is that possible? How both systems, ON at the same time, does interact?
    Thank you!

    Im not sure what user agent is, but are you referring to emulating IE in another browser such as Safari or Chrome?
    The "user agent" (for browsers) is how the receiver determines the senders browser.  It is easily faked to make the receiver "happy".  The only problems I can think of is that now the receiver might be using some flavor of HTML that the sender's browser cannot fully handle resulting in possible display or other problems.

  • Using Skype to call canada while traveling in asia

    I am not sure if there is an appropriate skype service for me to use while I travel in Asia (Seoul, Hong Kong, Japan). I will be calling and receiving calls from Canada. Also, do all services require that I am conncected to wifi when making/receiving calls? That the person I am calling is connected to wifi when receiving my calls?
    Thanks!!

    Hello,
    1. With Skype (or any VoIP carrier) your location is irrelevant. To make calls to Canada from anywhere in the world (including from within Canada) you need either the Unlimited USA/Canada Plan or some Skype Credit.
    2. Not necessarily. You require a high speed internet connection.
    3. as 2. above.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • Caller identification while using Skype Number

    Hi, I live in Canada and set up a Skype Number locates in HongKong to make my friends call me more easily. But soon I found that I could not identify who is the caller when someone is calling my Skype Number.
    For instant,
    When I log off the Skype App and use "Call Forward" function of Skype, if someone calls my HK's Skype Number, it always displays "+10000123456" and I cannot know who is the caller except I pickup the phone. 
    While if I run the Skype App in the backgourd of my cell phone, and someone calls my Skype Number, the skype app will pop up but only shows "Unknow Number"
    Could you give me some advice to solve this problem?
    Thanks

    There may not be much that can be done.  Caller ID from the telephone network to your Skype Number is controlled by the telephone carrier(s) where your Skype Number is located (Hong Kong). Not all carriers in all countries send Caller ID information to the Skype Number.  When your friends in Hong Kong call each other on their phones, do they see the Caller ID information on those calls?  This may not help your situation when receiving calls on your Skype number, but would at least verify that your friends' phones are sending the Caller ID information out when they call someone. 
    Good luck!
