Skype Product Details

Features: 

Using Skype to make free Skype-to-Skype calls is great but you can also make local, long distance and international calls to phones and cell phones at great rates too. But there’s a load more you can do as well.

For starters you can send cheap text messages directly from Skype; forward calls from Skype to your cell phone; or set up a personal online number so friends, family and co-workers can call you on Skype at local rates from their old-fashioned phone, no matter where you are in the world.

All you need to get going with these funky products is a little Skype Credit. Or, alternatively, get great value for money with Skype Pro™ – it’s one neat little package for one low monthly fee.

Cheap calls
Call phones and cell phones any where at low rates.

Online number

Save with Skype’s calling options

There are two ways to get started with these products. There’s the easy-to-use bundle of great features in Skype Pro or the simplicity of a prepay option with Skype Credit.

I've had Skype for about 6 months now. I'm an American living in Turkey and make most of my calls to the United States. The product itself is fine. But, should anything go wrong, you have no recourse. You can't talk to anyone.

It's not entirely true your computer needs to be on to receive Skype calls. Skype has a call forwarding feature where you can have calls also ring to your mobile phone or other line. You can even set up your Skype number to ring multiple numbers, so it rings you and your partner...or whomever!
