Why did my old cell phone get added?

Why was my old cell phone, that isn't active anymore, registered as my skype to go number?  I haven't looked into this feature enough to know if I want to use it or not.  And I certainly do not want information auto added with out my permission.

I have the same problem. In addition, my old cell phone was in a different country (Luxemburg) ! I tried to add my current phone, but the system forces the previous country and I cannot enter my current country (France). Anyway, I noticed that Skype To Go is not even available in France, so no big deal. But it is not correct that the old number is still around and is not removable.

  • HT201269 Why isn't my cell phone backing up properly to my laptop?  Backed it up three times in two days.  I replaced my old cell phone, had to setup as new, then backed up from "last backup" but it didn't work at all. The last backup was available was mo

    My cell phone will not back up properly to my laptop.  I have tried three times in two days as I knew I was getting my new phone today and wanted to save all my information.  The problem is that it backed up very random things like things from my IPod from years ago, and did not back up all the information it should have from my "old" cell phone.  Now I am missing almost everything.  What happened and can i fix this?

    First, make sure you are using the most current version of iTunes 11.1.3 (8).  Second, what version of iOS 7 was your old phone running, i.e. 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.0.2? If your back-up was made with a version of iOS that is newer than the version on your new phone, it will not sync. For example, if your back-up was of a phone running iOS 7.0.4, and your new phone was running 7.0.2 out of the box, the back up will not sync to the new phone until it is updated to iOS 7.0.4.

    I changed out my old cell phone for a Motorola zoom and now the zoom has my old phone number associated with it's sim card. I just purchased a Samsung Android cell phone and would like to trade the sim from my new to cell to the zoom so I can have my old cell phone number back. The problem is the sim cards are different sizes. Is this something I can take to a store and get switched out?

    SRCLARK,
    Great question! You can go to the store and get a replacement SIM card at the store. Any corporate store will be more than happy to help replacing your card. http://bit.ly/3SdsA

  • Why did my credit card account get charged $ when I downloaded free app on phone???

    Just bought my 1st iphone, I signed up for itunes and downloaded 2 free apps.  Why did my account get charged $1 preauthorization.

    It's just an authorization hold and will drop off the account in a day or two.  It is not an actual charge.

  • Why is returning old edge phone so hard??

    For simplicity sake, here's an abridged version....
    I edged up toward the end of Nov, 2014 then returned my old edge phone in Dec. 
              (Note: I had previously lost my phone and Verizon replaced it for me through Asurion)
    It got returned back to me because your warehouse couldn't match its ESN to your system.  Turned out your system wasn't updated when my phone was replaced through Asurion.
    Over a dozen phone calls and a bunch of trouble tickets later, your system was supposedly updated with the correct ESN.   I was then instructed to send my phone again.  I was told a shipping label would be sent to me to send my phone again.
    After getting 4 Edge return bags without a shipping label, I finally managed to get a hold of a real customer service rep who put in the correct request for me.  Finally received a shipping label!!
    On 3/2, your warehouse received my phone (at least according to the USPS tracking label).  By this time, you've already charged me over $600 for the unreturned equipment.  I didn't mind terribly because I was promised it would be refunded as soon as the device was returned and processed by the warehouse.
    I called your customer service 4 more times since then to check (1) if your warehouse actually received my phone, and (2) if the warehouse was able to match the ESN this time.  Call #1 - I was told to call back 2 weeks later (Ok....).  Call #2 - I was told to call back another 2 weeks later (she claimed it usually takes 3-4 weeks).  Call #3 - I was told it was received by the warehouse and that they were processing so I should call back a few days later if I don't see a credit on my statement.  Call #4 - On 3/31, I was told there was no sign of your warehouse receiving or processing my phone. The agent was super friendly at least.  He said he would create an urgent ticket and CC his supervisor and that someone would call me before Saturday (4/4) to let me know when to expect my refund.
    Obviously, no one called me to let me know when to expect my refund nor that you are still working on it. 
    I'll ask again -- why is it so difficult to return an edge phone????  Also, when am I going to get my money back?  I'm really tired of calling your customer service and repeating this whole story each time I call.  One agent even put me on hold for 5 minutes to read all of the notes your other agents had added to my account. 

    and you hear story after story on the forum about those that move lose all their recordings on the DVRs since (blamed on) account number changing.

  • If iPhone needs repair, can I use my old cell phone as back up?

    If I need to send my iPhone in for battery replacement or repair, will I be able to use my previous cell phone until I get my iPhone back?
    The newly posted iPhone Service FAQ states that Apple will be "renting" AppleCare Service iPhones for $29. I realize that none of the info stored on the SIM will transfer to my old phone, but I can always sync contacts to that phone from my computer, and I'd rather do that than shell out $29 for a loaner.
    By the way, don't most cell companies provide loaner phones for free? Why is Apple charging $29... other than because they can.

    Definitely...your iPhone sim card will work fine in any of our current phone models (as long as they are gsm/cingular/at&t...yada yada yada). Voice service will be instantly transfered to the phone and your data service will continue to work with the temporary phone's browser...Just remember, the opposite isn't true. You can't take the sim out of another phone and expect it to work in the iPhone without repeating iActivation. Hope this helps!

  • Why did you break my phone w/ kitkat?

    Last week I loved my phone.  Since 4.4.2 update I'm about ready to throw it away.
    There are so many backward steps in the kit kat update I don't know where to begin...
    Someone decided customers would accept Swype substitutes.  I disagree.  Google keyboard isn't the same.  But at least I understand that one as a financial decision... others just seem dumb.
    A Google engineer changes signal strength indicators from blue to white "primarily because most users didn't know what the colors meant"?  Did you really have that many people asking "why is that blue? White is harder to read at a glance.
    Another color choice - on my MAXX HD you have a nice multi-color LED for notifications that was working perfectly well but you switch it to all white? What do you have against green and blue? (Yes LightFlow is a workaround, but it's a pain and shouldn't have been necessary)
    I had to reset/re-init all my bluetooth devices.  I'm still not convinced they're working reliably, especially when used w/ WiFi.
    Ringtones had to be reset from scratch.
    Waze voice prompts are broken.  Other apps are erratic but hard to pinpoint the symptoms... but the unreliability started with the update.
    Text message background color of all white for what reason? What was wrong with the old format?
    Message notifications in widgets don't clear as before, requiring extra steps. In general SMS navigation has changed.  Why?
    Battery life is noticeably less.
    Who approved this rollout?
    If this is an indication of where Verizon quality is headed I'm looking elsewhere for my next phone.

    Swype going away has NOTHING to do with Verizon. That has to do with Nuance licensing beta software to manufacturers and then that licensing expiring. It's not up to Verizon on that deal and all dependent on Nuance and manufacturers.
    If you want Swype you have to purchase a license from Nuance(play store). Don't worry about the "warning" all keyboards give that warning even preinstalled ones.

  • Why did my number of posts get reset?

    I have a few hundred posts since 2006.  Suddenly a couple days ago the number was reset to 0.  I didn't create a new account.  Did set "remember me" at signin.
    Not sure its a big deal but.....
    Tom

    Lots of folk trying to help.  Another summary might be useful.
    I started posting in 2006.  This implies the TCarp was the "ID" I was using.  However, I log on to TDCarp when I sign in (as I have for as long as I can remember).
    I can't explain why, during that history, the ID shown next to each post was TCarp.
    One test I ran after this new situation started was to attempt to log onto TCarp.  It wouldn't take the password I have used all along so I selected that I forgot my password.  Having never received the email notice from the forum to have me reset the password, I'm assuming the email address associated with TCarp is either not mine or an old email address of mine that doesn't work.  The hint (shown when I said I had forgotten) made no sense to me so there may be a TCarp ID that is not mine.
    I don't understand how TDCarp was "created on 22 Sep 2011.  All I did was click remember me.  Remember, I've always logged with the TDCarp ID.
    It's all a mystery to me.  Hopefully someone from account mgmt can figure out what happened.

  • Why can't my Lumia phone get the yahoo mail messag...

    Hi,
    just bought myself a Lumia 920 and configured my yahoo mail account. Unfortunately it seems that the Lumia only polls every 15min(at best) but my N8 gets the same mail instantly.
    Am I doing something wrong or is this just another "Lumia feature"?

    Strange, thought that it would. Perhaps there are some settings within your Yahoo Mail account when you check it on a PC? Maybe something in there. if there isn't any other settings on the phone, then only thing you can do is check on PC as i said, or leave feature suggestion over at http://windowsphone.uservoice.com

  • Why did my mac email account get deleted upon upgrading to Yosemite

    I no longer have my mac email account, after upgrading to Yosemite.
    How do I get it back on my MBP? Does this involve iCloud?

    Go to the Mail/Accounts preference pane and add the account back again if it's not there.  Next check the System/iCloud preference pane to make sure you have Mail checked.

  • Photos Stuck On My Old Audiovox Cell Phone

    I recently switched to AT&T and I'm really enjoying my iPhone. However, I have some pictures on my old cell phone that I'd really like to get. They're parked right now on an Audiovox 8912 and with no service plan attached to the phone, those photos aren't about to be uploaded to the Web or anything. How can I access these photos? I'd throw the rest of the phone away if I could just get those pictures. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    You can check the manufacturer's website to see if there is a USB cable and/or software available for data transfer.

  • How to find out the provider information of a cell phone (from deceased relative)

    Hello all!
    I have an odd sort of question that I am hoping for some help on.  My wife's uncle recently passed away and we are now in possession of his old cell phone.  He was slightly estranged from the family and didn't share a lot of information so we currently have no idea whether this phone is prepaid or if it uses a service provider.  We would like to find out who the provider is, if there is one, so that we can cancel service, but are not sure how to go about doing this.  We have been unable to find any information on his phone as of yet.  Is there any way that this information can be found?
    Thank you so much for the help!

    Enter the number, the next screen will show the provider.
    Other option, just call *611 from the phone
