PayPal Preapproved payments now available

By My status Jaanus on January 18, 2006 in Skype Beta and new releases.

Do you ever think there was an easier way to pay for for Skype Credit, SkypeIn and all those things? There is now -- with PayPal. When you go to pay with PayPal, you can now go for "PayPal Preapproved" which means that the next time you need to make a purchase, it's only a few clicks away and you don't have to go through the whole process of selecting your address and all that.

If you haven't yet tried PayPal, why not do so? It's one of the easiest, safest and most convenient way to pay Skype.

...I manage a number of accounts and would be good to use our company PayPal account for Skype payments

Yes we are also managing a lot of accounts and would like to be able to use our company paypal account to get our customers started - we would like to set up there account - buy credits and give them to our customers as a way of making it easy for them to start making and receiving calls to and from landlines

Skype Credits

Hi can anyone help me about buying Skype Credit? I have got £2.67 left on my account and want to purchase more but Skype says:

"We're sorry, you are currently not allowed to purchase additional Skype Credits because your account balance is over the allowable limit. You have to spend some of Skype Credits before you can buy more"

Many thanks to anyone who can answer my question.

Hi,

I have the same issues with SKYPE OUT purchases as well. PayPal and the other methods (Moneybookers) are not available were I live - I can only use my credit card.

SKYPE will not allow me to purchase more than 20 Euro/mth. worth of credit using my CC. How can this be resolved other than going to an alternative service provider?

I need help. I have been trying to buy Skype Credit and have been unable to receive my confirmation email from Skype. All spam filters are turned off on my email account, and I have not heard from Skype in several days maybe 5 days. I would be happy to use Paypal preapprove system, I just can't get any answers from anyone please help if you can.

I also have been trying to buy Skype Out credit without luck. I never receive the verification code that Skype says it is sending to my email address, although email from other sources gets through and there are no spam blocks for Skype.

Hello, the option for using PayPal simply doesn't show up. The only payment options I have are "Regular Bank Transfer" and "Moneybookers." I HAVE a PayPal account, as well as a Skype account.

The Knowledgebase article

http://support.skype.com/index.php?_a=knowledgebase&_j=questiondetails&_i=620&nav2=Paypal%20Preapproved

doesn't seem to help, either. I can't find any such "settings" page.

I am at wits' end trying to find that elusive PayPal payment option.

What am I doing wrong?
