Skype To Go brings cheaper international calling to any telephone

Posted on 29-Aug-2007 20:04 | Filed under: News


Skype have launched a new way to call anyone in the world with the new Skype To Go service. As part of the global roll-out of Skype Pro, users can talk to a best friend abroad from their mobile phone for as long as they want paying a low local call rate.

The new service requires a simple Skype download and sign up procedure to join Skype Pro and means that Skype Pro customer's will receive a Skype To Go number at no additional cost.

The activation of the Skype To Go number, requires users to choose the friend or family member they want to call who lives abroad. Users can then simply enter their international number and Skype To Go will give users a local number to use instead.

With the Skype To Go number, users can call their friend from any phone, anytime they want. Customers can also store their Skype To Go number on their mobile phone and talk no matter where they happen to be.

Skype Pro was originally launched at the beginning of 2007 and is now available worldwide. Skype Pro is a fixed fee product and includes a range of features that varies depending on the country, for instance, zero per minute calls to local and national landlines, free voicemail and a range of discounts on Skype products and services.
