Skype To Go can save you a bundle on calls from mobiles and landlines

By My status Howard Wolinsky on February 25, 2009 in In the news.

Who says you can't take it with you?

With Skype being the it.

Back in 2007, Skype launched the Skype To Go number, which makes it possible to make low-cost international calls via Skype on landlines and mobiles.

On the main blog, Peter Parkes reports on how Skype To Go is now available to anyone with Skype Credit.

Parkes said: "When you're on the move, dial the Skype To Go number from any phone to reach your friends, family or business partners abroad. Skype To Go numbers are local numbers, so if they're included in your phone's calling plan, you'll pay only the low Skype rates for the calls you make."

Skype To Go numbers are available for the United States. They're also available in Australia, Chile, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Ireland, New Zealand, Poland, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

To get your Skype To Go number, go your account to activate the number. You'll need a Skype Credit or a subscription.

A low per minute call fee for the international call is deducted from your Skype Credit. This may also be free if you have a subscription to Skype.

If your subscription includes the US, for example, and you use Skype To Go to call the US, you won't pay a penny.
