SkypeIn for Belgium
SkypeIn for Belgium
Often I get the question: �when will SkypeIn be available for Belgium?". I am not Skype Staff, therefore i will probably know it at the same time or later than the press!
Jan Geirnaert is from Ghent, the same city as I am from, but he lives in Malaysia. He seems to like me a lot
because he contacted me twice this weekend (see my previous post). I am worried 
.Today he asked me to call him on his Belgian number 09298xxxx with my fixed line 09222yyyy. But, I know he is still in Malaysia, and Skype hasn�t added SkypeIn countries in ages! Belgium isn�t available yet!
Well there is an equivalent solution:
I called him, the call was diverted to his Skype account in Malaysia and the quality of the call was OK! I only paid for a local call. He paid nothing for the call itself!Some price comparisons
- My fixed line in Belgium (Belgacom): 7.50 �/month
- SkypeIn for 3 months (not yet available for Belgium): 5 �/month
- Virtuphon: 5.30 �/month
[EDITED:] Thanks to the comment of Phil ... SkypeIn also in South Korea, numbers above were adapted.
By the way, Skype seems to rename SkypeIn in �Skype Online Number�.
And thanks to Jan for pointing me to that. I guess he will also blog on it!
