Do you use the free version of Skype for internet calls and video chats? It may be time to upgrade your account. The free Skype restricts you to calling other Skype users, but a paid subscription lets you call mobile phones and land lines and certain other countries. Alternatively, you can keep your free account and purchase Skype credit when you need it.
Here are the different options for upgrading your Skype subscription.
SIGN IN
At the Skype website, click on the “Sign in” button in the upper-right corner, and click on the link for “My Account.” At the “Sign in” screen, type your email address, phone number, or Skype username. Click Next. At the “Enter Password” screen, type your Skype password. Click Sign in.
SKYPE CREDIT
By purchasing Skype credits, you can make Skype calls to people who aren’t on Skype via their mobile phones or land lines. It’s a handy option if you don’t expect to make too many calls to non-Skype users, and would like to have a “pay as you go” option. You can also make international calls to certain countries, which you can’t do through a free Skype account.
At your “My Account” page, click the “Discover credit” button.
ADD CREDIT
A screen called “Unlock even more features with Skype Credit” pops up to explain how you can use the credit you purchase. Click on the button to “Add credit to your account.”
